COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 758/2007
of 29 June 2007
amending Regulation (EEC) No 3149/92 laying down detailed rules for the supply of food from intervention stocks for the benefit of the most deprived persons in the Community
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3730/87 of 10 December 1987 laying down the general rules for the supply of food from intervention stocks to designated organisations for distribution to the most deprived persons in the Community (1), and in particular Article 6 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) The second subparagraph of Article 3(2) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3149/92 (2) provides that 70 % of the products allocated to a Member State must be withdrawn from stock before 1 July in the year of implementation of the plan. Given the late participation of Romania in the 2007 annual plan as a result of the date of its accession to the Community, for that Member State there should be a derogation from that requirement as regards the 2007 plan.
(2) Regulation (EEC) No 3149/92 should be amended accordingly.
(3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
In Article 3(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3149/92, the second subparagraph is replaced by the following:
‘70 % of the quantities referred to in Article 2(3)(1)(b) must be withdrawn from stock before 1 July in the year of plan implementation. However, this requirement shall not apply to allocations of 500 tonnes or less. Nor shall this requirement apply to products allocated to Romania under the 2007 annual plan. Any quantities that have not been withdrawn from intervention stocks by 30 September in the year of plan implementation shall no longer be allocated to the Member State to which they were assigned under the plan in question.’
This Regulation shall enter into force on 30 June 2007.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1249/96 of 28 June 1996 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 in respect of import duties in the cereals sector (2), and in particular Article 2(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) The import duties in the cereals sector applicable from 1 July 2010 were fixed by Commission Regulation (EU) No 576/2010 (3).

(3) Article 4(3) of Regulation (EC) No 3223/94 specifies that, where no standard import value is in force for a product for a given origin, the average of standard import values in force for that product shall apply. That average should therefore be recalculated if one of its component standard import values is corrected.
(4) Application of the corrected standard import value must be requested by the party concerned so that they are not placed retroactively at a disadvantage,
The standard import values applicable to certain products listed in the Annex to Regulations (EC) No 1735/2005, (EC) No 1740/2005 and 1750/2005 are hereby replaced by the standard import values listed in the table in the Annex hereto.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1961/2001 of 8 October 2001 on detailed rules for implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 as regards export refunds on fruit and vegetables(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1176/2002(2), and in particular Article 6(6) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 2201/2002(3) fixes the indicative quantities for system B export licences other than those sought in the context of food aid.
(2) In the light of the information available to the Commission today, there is a risk that the indicative quantities laid down for the current export period for tomatoes will shortly be exceeded.

(3) To avoid this situation, applications for system B licences for tomatoes after 24 January 2003 should be rejected until the end of the current export period,
Applications for system B export licences for tomatoes submitted pursuant to Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 2201/2002, export declarations for which are accepted after 24 January 2003 and before 15 March 2003, are hereby rejected.

Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 998/2003 lays down a list of third countries and territories from which movement of pet animals to the Community may be authorised, provided that certain requirements are met.
(2) A provisional list of third countries was established by Regulation (EC) No 998/2003, as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 592/2004 (2).
(3) That provisional list, which has already been amended several times, includes third countries and territories which are free of rabies and third countries and territories in respect of which the risk of rabies entering the Community as a result of movements from those third countries and territories has been found to be no higher than the risk associated with movements between Member States.
(4) From information supplied by Bosnia and Herzegovina and Bulgaria, it appears that the risk of rabies entering the Community as a result of movements of pet animals from these countries has been found to be no higher than the risk associated with movements between Member States or from third countries already listed in Regulation (EC) No 998/2003. Therefore those third countries should be included in the provisional list of third countries and territories set out in part C of Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 998/2003.
(5) In the interest of clarity the list of countries and territories set out in Regulation (EC) No 998/2003 should be replaced in its entirety.
