         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/830
         of 15 May 2019
         concerning the classification of certain goods in the Combined Nomenclature
         THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
         Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
         Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 October 2013 laying down the Union Customs Code (1), and in particular Article 57(4) and Article 58(2) thereof,
         Whereas:

                     (1)

                     In order to ensure uniform application of the Combined Nomenclature annexed to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 (2), it is necessary to adopt measures concerning the classification of the goods referred to in the Annex to this Regulation.

                     (2)

                     Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 has laid down the general rules for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature. Those rules apply also to any other nomenclature which is wholly or partly based on it or which adds any additional subdivision to it and which is established by specific provisions of the Union, with a view to the application of tariff and other measures relating to trade in goods.

                     (3)

                     Pursuant to those general rules, the goods described in column (1) of the table set out in the Annex should be classified under the CN code indicated in column (2), by virtue of the reasons set out in column (3) of that table.

                     (4)

                     It is appropriate to provide that binding tariff information issued in respect of the goods concerned by this Regulation which does not conform to this Regulation may, for a certain period, continue to be invoked by the holder in accordance with Article 34(9) of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013. That period should be set at three months.

                     (5)

                     The Customs Code Committee has not delivered an opinion within the time limit laid down by its Chair,

               HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

            Article 1
            The goods described in column (1) of the table set out in the Annex shall be classified within the Combined Nomenclature under the CN code indicated in column (2) of that table.

            Article 2
            Binding tariff information which does not conform to this Regulation may continue to be invoked in accordance with Article 34(9) of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 for a period of three months from the date of entry into force of this Regulation.

            Article 3
            This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

            This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
            Done at Brussels, 15 May 2019.

                  For the Commission,

                  On behalf of the President,

               Stephen QUEST

                  Director-General

                  Directorate-General for Taxation and Customs Union

            (1)  OJ L 269, 10.10.2013, p. 1.

            (2)  Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (OJ L 256, 7.9.1987, p. 1).

            ANNEX

                        Description of the goods

                        Classification
                        (CN-code)

                        Reasons

                        (1)

                        (2)

                        (3)

                        An article, of a rectangular shape with rounded edges, made of moulded plastics (polycarbonate), in the form of a shell which covers the back and the sides of a mobile phone, measuring approximately 7 × 14 × 0,8 cm.
                        The outer surface of the back is covered with a leather layer and the inner surface, which makes contact with the back of the mobile phone, is lined with man-made fibres (microfibres).
                        It is designed to hold and protect the back and sides of a mobile phone. The front of the mobile phone is not to be covered.
                        See image (*1).

                        3926 90 97

                        Classification is determined by general rules (GIR) 1, 3(b) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 3926 , 3926 90  and 3926 90 97 .
                        According to its objective characteristics, the article is designed to hold and protect the back and sides of a mobile phone. The protection is given by the material of the shell (polycarbonate plastic).
                        The leather layer on the outer surface of the back of the article enhances its appearance providing only an additional effect to the main purpose of protection. Consequently, the polycarbonate plastic forming the protective shell constitutes the material that gives the article its essential character within the meaning of GIR 3(b).
                        Classification of the article under heading 4205  as other articles of leather is therefore excluded.
                        Classification of the article under heading 6307  as other made-up articles is also excluded as the man-made fibres constitute merely the lining.
                        Consequently, the article is to be classified under CN code 3926 90 97  as other articles of plastics.

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1098
         of 26 June 2019
         amending Regulation (EC) No 1484/95 as regards fixing representative prices in the poultrymeat and egg sectors and for egg albumin
         THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
         Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
         Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007 (1), and in particular Article 183(b) thereof,
         Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 510/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 April 2014 laying down the trade arrangements applicable to certain goods resulting from the processing of agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EC) No 1216/2009 and (EC) No 614/2009 (2), and in particular Article 5(6)(a) thereof,
         Whereas:

                     (1)

                     Commission Regulation (EC) No 1484/95 (3) lays down detailed rules for implementing the system of additional import duties and fixes representative prices in the poultrymeat and egg sectors and for egg albumin.

                     (2)

                     Regular monitoring of the data used to determine representative prices for poultrymeat and egg products and for egg albumin shows that the representative import prices for certain products should be amended to take account of variations in price according to origin.

                     (3)

                     Regulation (EC) No 1484/95 should therefore be amended accordingly.

                     (4)

                     Given the need to ensure that this measure applies as soon as possible after the updated data have been made available, this Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication,

               HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

            Article 1
            Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1484/95 is replaced by the text set out in the Annex to this Regulation.

            Article 2
            This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

            This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1099
         of 27 June 2019
         amending Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty and collecting definitively the provisional duty imposed on imports of ceramic tableware and kitchenware originating in the People's Republic of China
         THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
         Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
         Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/1036 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2016 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Union (1),
         Having regard to Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013 of 13 May 2013 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty and collecting definitely the provisional duty imposed on imports of ceramic tableware and kitchenware originating in the People's Republic of China (2), and in particular Article 3 thereof,
         Whereas:
         A.   PREVIOUS PROCEDURE

                     (1)

                     On 13 May 2013, the Council imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports into the Union of ceramic tableware and kitchenware (‘tableware’) originating in the People's Republic of China (‘the PRC’) by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013.

                     (2)

                     Given the large number of Chinese exporting producers, the Commission selected a sample to be investigated in accordance with Article 17 of Regulation (EU) 2016/1036.

                     (3)

                     The Council imposed individual duty rates on imports of tableware ranging from 13,1 % to 23,4 % on the sampled companies, and a weighted average duty of 17,9 % on other cooperating companies not included in the sample. In addition, a duty rate of 36,1 % was imposed on imports of tableware from all other Chinese companies.

                     (4)

                     The list of cooperating exporting producers in Annex I of Regulation (EU) No 412/2013 was amended by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 803/2014 (3) and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/2207 (4).

                     (5)

                     Pursuant to Article 3 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013, Article 1(2) of that Regulation can be amended by granting the new exporting producer the duty rate applicable to the cooperating companies not included in the sample, namely the weighted average duty rate of 17,9 %, where any new exporting producer of tableware in the PRC provides sufficient evidence to the Commission.

               B.   REQUEST FOR NEW EXPORTING PRODUCER TREATMENT

                     (6)

                     In May 2018, the company Fujian Dehua Sanfeng Ceramics Co. Ltd (‘the applicant’) submitted a request to be granted new exporting producer treatment (‘new exporting producer treatment’ or ‘NEPT’), claiming that it met all three criteria set out in Article 3 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013.

                     (7)

                     In order to substantiate its claim, the applicant provided a questionnaire reply to the Commission. Following the analysis of the questionnaire response, the Commission requested further information and supporting evidence which was provided by the applicant.

               C.   ANALYSIS OF THE REQUEST

                     (8)

                     With regard to the condition set out in point (a) of Article 3 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013, namely that the applicant did not export the product concerned to the Union during the investigation period, the applicant provided its monthly sales ledger from 2011 to 2017. The ledger showed that it started commercialising the product concerned only after the investigation period, in March 2012. That evidence was corroborated by the international sales ledger, which indicated that the applicant started exporting the product concerned in March 2012 to the USA and in July 2012 to the Union (France).

                     (9)

                     Upon verification of invoices and further sales documentation, no evidence was found suggesting that the product concerned was exported to the Union prior to those dates and/or during the investigation period. Therefore, in light of the available information and documentation, the Commission concluded that the applicant meets the criterion (a) of Article 3 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013.

                     (10)

                     With regard to the condition set out in point (b) of Article 3 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013, the Commission found that until 2013 the owner of the applicant had shares in two other companies. The documentation concerning the establishment and business activity of those two related companies, including their accounts, sales and purchase ledgers was requested and examined. The documentation concerning the establishment and business activity of those two related companies, including sales and purchases of the product concerned was requested and examined. Based on the documentation provided no further commercial or operational links with exporters or producers from the PRC subject to the anti-dumping measures were identified. Rather, one of the related companies in fact was granted new exporting producer treatment in 2017 (5). Thus, the Commission concluded that the applicant met the condition set out in point (b) of Article 3 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013.

                     (11)

                     Regarding the condition set out in point (c) of Article 3 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013, based on the documentary evidence provided, the Commission established that the applicant had actually exported the product concerned to the Union following the investigation period. The applicant provided sales contracts signed with a customer in Germany, together with further sales documentation for a transaction in October 2017. Therefore, the Commission concluded that the applicant met the condition set out in point (c) of Article 3 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013.

                     (12)

                     The Union industry did not provide any evidence/information indicating that any of the three criteria were not met by the applicant.

               D.   CONCLUSION

                     (13)

                     The Commission concluded that the applicant fulfilled the three criteria required in order to be considered as a new exporting producer. Consequently, it decided that the applicant should be granted new exporting producer treatment and therefore its name should be added to the list of cooperating companies not included in the sample listed in Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2013.

               E.   DISCLOSURE

                     (14)

                     The applicant and the Union industry were informed of the essential facts and considerations on the basis of which it was considered appropriate to grant the anti-dumping duty rate applicable to the non-sampled cooperating Chinese exporting producers to Fujian Dehua Sanfeng Ceramics Co. Ltd.

                     (15)

                     The parties were granted the possibility to submit comments. No comments were received.

                     (16)

                     The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 15(1) of the basic Regulation,

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1100
         of 27 June 2019
         concerning the non-renewal of approval of the active substance desmedipham, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market, and amending the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011
         (Text with EEA relevance)
         THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
         Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
         Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market and repealing Council Directives 79/117/EEC and 91/414/EEC (1), and in particular Article 20(1) and Article 78(2) thereof,
         Whereas:

                     (1)

                     Commission Directive 2004/58/EC (2) included desmedipham as an active substance in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC (3).

                     (2)

                     Active substances included in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC are deemed to have been approved under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 and are listed in Part A of the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 (4).

                     (3)

                     The approval of the active substance desmedipham, as set out in Part A of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011, expires on 31 July 2020.

                     (4)

                     An application for the renewal of the approval of desmedipham was submitted in accordance with Article 1 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012 (5) within the time period provided for in that Article.

                     (5)

                     The applicant submitted the supplementary dossiers required in accordance with Article 6 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012. The application was found to be complete by the rapporteur Member State.

                     (6)

                     The rapporteur Member State prepared a renewal assessment report in consultation with the co-rapporteur Member State and submitted it to the European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) and the Commission on 21 December 2016.

                     (7)

                     The Authority communicated the renewal assessment report to the applicant and to the Member States for comments and forwarded the comments received to the Commission. The Authority also made the supplementary summary dossier available to the public.

                     (8)

                     On 10 January 2018, the Authority communicated to the Commission its conclusion (6) on whether desmedipham can be expected to meet the approval criteria provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009.

                     (9)

                     The Authority identified specific concerns. In particular, it was not possible to exclude exposure of consumers and/or livestock to residues containing free and/or conjugated aniline (classified as mutagen category 2 and carcinogen category 2) and consumer exposure to residues containing 4-aminophenol (classified as mutagen category 2) via animal commodities. In addition, the Authority concluded that a high long-term risk to mammals was identified for all representative uses, except for insectivorous mammals when the use pattern includes only one application. A high long-term risk for birds was identified for the representative uses in sugar beet/fodder beet, when the use pattern includes two or three applications.

                     (10)

                     Furthermore, the Authority also concluded that the assessment of endocrine disrupting properties could not be completed based on the available information.

                     (11)

                     The Commission invited the applicant to submit its comments on the conclusion of the Authority and, in accordance with the third subparagraph of Article 14(1) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012, on the draft renewal report. The applicant submitted its comments, which have been carefully examined.

                     (12)

                     However, despite the arguments put forward by the applicant, the concerns regarding the active substance could not be eliminated.

                     (13)

                     Consequently, it has not been established with respect to one or more representative uses of at least one plant protection product that the approval criteria provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 are satisfied. It is therefore appropriate not to renew the approval of the active substance desmedipham in accordance with Article 20(1)(b) of that Regulation.

                     (14)

                     Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 should therefore be amended accordingly.

                     (15)

                     Member States should be given sufficient time to withdraw authorisations for plant protection products containing desmedipham.

                     (16)

                     For plant protection products containing desmedipham, where Member States grant any grace period in accordance with Article 46 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, that period should at the latest, expire on 1 July 2020.

                     (17)

                     Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/707 (7) extended the approval period of desmedipham to 31 July 2020 in order to allow the renewal process to be completed before the expiry of the approval of that substance. However, given that a decision on the non-renewal of the approval has been taken ahead of that extended expiry date, this Regulation should apply as soon as possible.

                     (18)

                     This Regulation does not prevent the submission of a further application for the approval of desmedipham pursuant to Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009.

                     (19)

                     The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,

               HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

            Article 1
            Non-renewal of the approval of active substance
            The approval of the active substance desmedipham is not renewed.

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1101
         of 27 June 2019
         renewing the approval of the active substance tolclofos-methyl in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market, and amending the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011
         (Text with EEA relevance)
         THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
         Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
         Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market and repealing Council Directives 79/117/EEC and 91/414/EEC (1), and in particular Article 20(1) thereof,
         Whereas:

                     (1)

                     Commission Directive 2006/39/EC (2) included tolclofos-methyl as an active substance in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC (3).

                     (2)

                     Active substances included in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC are deemed to have been approved under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 and are listed in Part A of the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 (4).

                     (3)

                     The approval of the active substance tolclofos-methyl, as set out in Part A of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011, expires on 30 April 2020.

                     (4)

                     An application for the renewal of the approval of tolclofos-methyl was submitted in accordance with Article 1 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012 (5) within the time period provided for in that Article. The applicant submitted the supplementary dossiers required in accordance with Article 6 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012. The application was found to be complete by the rapporteur Member State.

                     (5)

                     The rapporteur Member State prepared a renewal assessment report in consultation with the co-rapporteur Member State and submitted it to the European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) and the Commission on 11 November 2016.

                     (6)

                     The Authority communicated the renewal assessment report to the applicant and to the Member States for comments and forwarded the comments received to the Commission. The Authority also made the supplementary summary dossier available to the public.

                     (7)

                     On 8 December 2017, the Authority communicated to the Commission its conclusion (6) on whether tolclofos-methyl can be expected to meet the approval criteria provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009. An amended version of this conclusion was adopted by the Authority on 5 October 2018 and re-published on 15 November 2018 with an explanation concerning the partially acceptable risk for aquatic organisms (one FOCUS scenario out of the 3 is considered as acceptable) from the representative uses in ornamental crops for protected structures. The initial version of the conclusions was removed from EFSA Journal. The Commission presented the draft renewal report for tolclofos-methyl to the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed on 24 October 2018.

                     (8)

                     As regards the criteria to identify endocrine-disrupting properties introduced by Commission Regulation (EU) 2018/605 (7), the conclusion of the Authority, based on the fact that there was no evidence of endocrine-mediated effects in vivo, indicates that it is highly unlikely that tolclofos-methyl is an endocrine disrupter. Thus, the Commission concludes that tolclofos-methyl is not to be considered as having endocrine-disrupting properties.

                     (9)

                     The Commission invited the applicant to submit its comments on the amended version of the conclusion of the Authority and, in accordance with the third paragraph of Article 14(1) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012, on the draft renewal report. The applicant submitted its comments, which have been carefully examined.

                     (10)

                     It has been established with respect to one or more representative uses of at least one plant protection product containing tolclofos-methyl that the approval criteria provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 are satisfied.

                     (11)

                     It is therefore appropriate to renew the approval of tolclofos-methyl.

                     (12)

                     In accordance with Article 14(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 in conjunction with Article 6 of that Regulation and in the light of current scientific and technical knowledge, it is, however, necessary to provide for certain conditions and restrictions. It is, in particular, appropriate to restrict the use of plant protection products containing tolclofos-methyl in order to minimise the exposure for consumers to certain metabolites and to reduce the exposure of aquatic organisms and wild mammals to this substance by approving its use in ornamentals and potatoes only.

                     (13)

                     The risk assessment for the renewal of the approval of tolclofos-methyl is based on a limited number of representative uses, which, however, do not restrict the uses for which plant protection products containing tolclofos-methyl may be authorised. It is therefore appropriate to remove the restriction for use only as a fungicide.

                     (14)

                     The Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 should therefore be amended accordingly.

                     (15)

                     Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/168 (8) extended the approval period of tolclofos-methyl to 30 April 2020 in order to allow the renewal process to be completed before the expiry of the approval of that substance. However, given that a decision on renewal has been taken ahead of that extended expiry date, this Regulation should apply from 1 September 2019.

                     (16)

                     The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,

               HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

            Article 1
            Renewal of approval of active substance
            The approval of the active substance tolclofos-methyl is renewed as set out in Annex I.

            Article 2
            Amendments to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011
            The Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 is amended in accordance with Annex II to this Regulation.

            Entry into force and date of application
            This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
            It shall apply from 1 September 2019.

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1289
         of 31 July 2019
         concerning the authorisation of L-valine produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum KCCM 11201P as a feed additive for all animal species
         (Text with EEA relevance)
         THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
         Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
         Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 September 2003 on additives for use in animal nutrition (1), and in particular Article 9(2) thereof,
         Whereas:

                     (1)

                     Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the authorisation of additives for use in animal nutrition and for the grounds and procedures for granting such authorisation.

                     (2)

                     In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 an application was submitted for the authorisation of L-valine. The application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of that Regulation.

                     (3)

                     The application concerns the authorisation of L-valine produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum KCCM 11201P as a feed additive for all animal species, to be classified in the additive category ‘nutritional additives’.

                     (4)

                     The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 28 November 2018 (2) that, under the proposed conditions of use, L-valine produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum KCCM 11201P when supplemented to diets in appropriate amounts does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment. Further, the Authority concluded that it is considered an efficacious source of the essential amino acid L-valine for animal nutrition and that in order to be efficacious in ruminants, the additive should be protected against degradation in the rumen. The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the report on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.

                     (5)

                     The assessment of that substance shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of that substance should be authorised as specified in the Annex to this Regulation.

                     (6)

                     The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,

               HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

            Article 1
            The substance specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘nutritional additives’ and to the functional group ‘amino acids, their salts and analogues’, is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.

            Article 2
            This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

            This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1757
         of 23 October 2019
         amending Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/659 as regards the inclusion of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and its Crown Dependencies in the list of third countries and parts of the territory of third countries from which the entry into the Union of live equidae and semen, ova and embryos of equidae is authorised
         (Text with EEA relevance)
         THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
         Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
         Having regard to Council Directive 91/496/EEC of 15 July 1991 laying down the principles governing the organization of veterinary checks on animals entering the Community from third countries and amending Directives 89/662/EEC, 90/425/EEC and 90/675/EEC (1), and in particular Article 3(2) and Article 9(1)(c) thereof,
         Having regard to Council Directive 92/65/EEC of 13 July 1992 laying down animal health requirements governing trade in and imports into the Community of animals, semen, ova and embryos not subject to animal health requirements laid down in specific Community rules referred to in Annex A(I) to Directive 90/425/EEC (2), and in particular Article 17(3) thereof,
         Having regard to Council Directive 2009/156/EC of 30 November 2009 on animal health conditions governing the movement and importation from third countries of equidae (3), and in particular Article 2(i), Article 12(1), (4) and (5), Article 13(2), Articles 15, 16, 17 and 19 thereof,
         Whereas:

                     (1)

                     On 29 March 2017, the United Kingdom submitted the notification of its intention to withdraw from the Union pursuant to Article 50 of the Treaty on European Union (TEU). On 11 April 2019, the European Council adopted Decision (EU) 2019/584 (4) extending the period under Article 50(3) TEU in agreement with the United Kingdom. In accordance with that Decision, the period provided for in Article 50(3) TEU has been further extended until 31 October 2019. Union law will therefore cease to apply to and in the United Kingdom from 1 November 2019 (‘the withdrawal date’).

                     (2)

                     Directive 2009/156/EC lays down the animal health requirements governing imports into the Union of equidae. It provides that only equidae that come from a third country or part of a third country on a list of third countries drawn up in accordance with that Directive, and accompanied by a health certificate corresponding to a model also drawn up in accordance with that Directive, may be imported into the Union.

                     (3)

                     Directive 92/65/EEC lays down the animal health requirements governing imports into the Union of semen, ova and embryos of the equine species. It provides that only commodities that come from a third country or part of a third country on a list of third countries drawn up in accordance with that Directive and accompanied by a health certificate corresponding to a model also drawn up in accordance with that Directive, may be imported into the Union. The health certificate must attest that the commodities come from approved collection and storage centres or collection and production teams offering guarantees at least equivalent to those established in Annex D(I) to that Directive.

                     (4)

                     Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/659 (5) establishes, inter alia, the list of third countries and parts of the territory of third countries from which Member States authorise the entry of live equidae and semen, ova and embryos of equidae.

                     (5)

                     The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland has provided the necessary guarantees for that country and for its Crown Dependencies for certain commodities to comply with the conditions laid down in Directives 2009/156/EC and 92/65/EEC, and in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/659 for the entry into the Union of consignments of equidae and of semen, ova and embryos of equidae from the withdrawal date by continuing to comply with Union legislation for an initial period of at least nine months.

                     (6)

                     Therefore, taking into account these specific guarantees provided by the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and in order to avoid any unnecessary disruption of trade after the withdrawal date, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and its Crown Dependencies should be included in the list of third countries and parts of the territory of third countries set out in Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/659 from which the entry of live equidae and semen, ova and embryos of equidae is authorised.

                     (7)

                     As regards the health status of equidae in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the Crown Dependencies, these countries should be assigned to sanitary group A, and all types of entry and the entry of all categories of equidae should be allowed.

                     (8)

                     Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/659 should therefore be amended accordingly.

                     (9)

                     This Regulation should apply from 1 November 2019, unless Union law continues to apply to and in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland on that date.

                     (10)

                     The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,

               HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

            Article 1
            Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/659 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1759
         of 23 October 2019
         amending Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 605/2010 as regards the inclusion of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and its Crown Dependencies in the list of third countries or parts thereof authorised for the introduction into the Union of consignments of raw milk, dairy products, colostrum and colostrum-based products intended for human consumption
         (Text with EEA relevance)
         THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
         Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
         Having regard to Council Directive 2002/99/EC of 16 December 2002 laying down the animal health rules governing the production, processing, distribution and introduction of products of animal origin for human consumption (1), and in particular the introductory phrase of Article 8, the first subparagraph of point (1) and point (4) of Article 8 and Article 9(4) thereof,
         Whereas:

                     (1)

                     On 29 March 2017, the United Kingdom submitted the notification of its intention to withdraw from the Union pursuant to Article 50 of the Treaty on European Union (TEU). On 11 April 2019, the European Council adopted Decision (EU) 2019/584 (2) extending the period under Article 50(3) TEU in agreement with the United Kingdom. In accordance with that Decision, the period provided for in Article 50(3) TEU has been further extended until 31 October 2019. Union law will therefore cease to apply to and in the United Kingdom from 1 November 2019 (‘the withdrawal date’).

                     (2)

                     Commission Regulation (EU) No 605/2010 (3) lays down the public and animal health conditions and certification requirements for the introduction into the Union of consignments of raw milk, dairy products, colostrum and colostrum-based products intended for human consumption, and the list of third countries or parts thereof from which the introduction into the Union of such consignments is authorised.

                     (3)

                     The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland has provided the necessary guarantees for that country and its Crown Dependencies to comply with the conditions laid down in Regulation (EU) No 605/2010 for the introduction into the Union of consignments of raw milk, dairy products, colostrum and colostrum-based products intended for human consumption from the withdrawal date, by continuing to comply with Union legislation for an initial period of at least nine months.

                     (4)

                     Therefore, taking into account these specific guarantees provided by the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and in order to avoid any unnecessary disruption to trade after the withdrawal date, the United Kingdom and its Crown Dependencies should be included in columns ‘A’,‘B’ and ‘C’ in the list of third countries and parts thereof set out in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 605/2010 authorised for the introduction into the Union of consignments of raw milk, dairy products, colostrum and colostrum-based products intended for human consumption.

                     (5)

                     Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 605/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly.

                     (6)

                     This Regulation should apply as of the withdrawal date, unless Union law continues to apply to and in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland on that date.

                     (7)

                     The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,

               HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

            Article 1
            Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 605/2010 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.

            Article 2
            This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
            It shall apply as of the withdrawal date.
            However, it shall not apply if Union law continues to apply to and in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland on that date.

            This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

         amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/39 as regards the reallocation of Union aid
         THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
         Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
         Having regard to Council Regulation (EU) No 1370/2013 of 16 December 2013 determining measures on fixing certain aids and refunds related to the common organisation of the markets in agricultural products (1), and in particular Article 5(5) thereof,
         Whereas:

                     (1)

                     Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/39 (2) sets out the rules, inter alia, for the reallocation of unrequested Union aid between the Member States participating in the school scheme that have notified their willingness to use more than their indicative allocation. The amount of indicative allocation that may be reallocated to another Member State is to be based on the level of use of the definitive allocation of Union aid in the previous school year by that Member State. In the light of experience gained under the school scheme, the rules for the calculation of the amounts of indicative allocation to be reallocated should be further clarified. In order to provide the most updated basis for the reallocation of Union aid, the Member States’ declarations of expenditure effected up to 31 December should be taken into account for the calculation.

                     (2)

                     Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/39 should therefore be amended accordingly.

                     (3)

                     The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the Common Organisation of the Agricultural Markets,

            Article 1
            In Article 7 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/39, paragraph 3 is replaced by the following:

                  ‘3.   The amount of indicative allocation that may be reallocated to another Member State pursuant to paragraph 1 shall be based on the level of use of the definitive allocation of Union aid in the previous school year for school fruit and vegetables and for school milk respectively by that Member State. Taking into account the declarations of expenditure sent to the Commission concerning expenditure effected up to 31 December of the year prior to the submission of the request for Union aid in accordance with Article 10 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 908/2014 (*1), the amount of the definitive allocation shall be calculated as follows:

                              (a)

                              when the use of the definitive allocation is below or equal to 50 %, no additional allocation shall be granted;

                              (b)

                              when the use of the definitive allocation is higher than 50 % but lower or equal to 75 %, the maximum additional allocation shall be capped at 50 % of the indicative allocation;

                              (c)

                              when the use of the definitive allocation is higher than 75 %, the maximum additional allocation shall not be capped.

                        The calculation described in the first subparagraph shall not apply for Member States newly applying the school scheme or one of its components during the first two years of implementation.

            Article 2
            This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

            This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
