   approving non-minor amendments to the specification for a name entered in the register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications (Sedano Bianco di Sperlonga (PGI))
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 November 2012 on quality schemes for agricultural products and foodstuffs (1), and in particular Article 52(2) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               In accordance with the first subparagraph of Article 53(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, the Commission has examined Italy's application for the approval of amendments to the specification for the protected geographical indication ‘Sedano Bianco di Sperlonga’ registered under Commission Regulation (EU) No 222/2010 (2).

               (2)

               Since the amendment in question is not minor within the meaning of Article 53(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, the Commission published the amendment application in the Official Journal of the European Union

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/704
   of 11 May 2016
   withdrawing the acceptance of the undertaking for two exporting producers and amending Implementing Decision (EU) 2015/87 accepting the undertakings offered in connection with the anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of citric acid 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 Council Regulation (EC) No 1225/2009 of 30 November 2009 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Community (1) (the ‘basic Regulation’), and in particular Article 8 thereof,
   Informing the Member States,
   Whereas:
   A.   UNDERTAKING AND OTHER EXISTING MEASURES

               (1)

               Following an anti-dumping investigation (‘the original investigation’), the Council imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of citric acid (‘the product concerned’) currently falling within CN codes 2918 14 00 and ex 2918 15 00 originating in the People's Republic of China (‘the PRC’) by Regulation (EC) No 1193/2008 (2). The measures took the form of an ad valorem duty ranging between 6,6 % and 42,7 %.

               (2)

               The European Commission (‘the Commission’) accepted price undertakings offered, inter alia, by Weifang Ensign Industry Co., Ltd (Taric additional code A882) (‘Weifang’) and TTCA Co., Ltd (Taric additional code A878) (‘TTCA’), together with the China Chamber of Commerce of Metals, Minerals and Chemicals Importers and Exporters (‘the Chamber’) by Decision 2008/899/EC (3).

               (3)

               Following an expiry review and a partial interim review (‘the reviews’) the Commission maintained the measures and amended their level by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/82 (4). The anti-dumping duty currently in force on imports of citric acid originating in the PRC range between 15,3 % and 42,7 % (‘the measures in force’).

               (4)

               Following the reviews, the Commission accepted price undertakings, inter alia, from Weifang and TTCA together with the Chamber, by Implementing Decision (EU) 2015/87 (5).

               (5)

               The undertakings accepted from Weifang and TTCA (‘the exporting producers concerned’) are both based on the indexation of the minimum prices in accordance with public quotations of corn in the Union, the main raw material normally used in the production of citric acid.

               (6)

               Following an anti-circumvention investigation, the Commission extended the measures in force to imports of citric acid consigned from Malaysia by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/32 (6) (‘the anti-circumvention investigation’).

               (7)

               The anti-circumvention investigation concluded that the measures in force were being circumvented by means of transhipment via Malaysia. In particular, the findings of the anti-circumvention investigation revealed a simultaneous surge in exports from the PRC to Malaysia and imports from Malaysia to the Union. The anti-circumvention investigation did not identify any genuine production of citric acid in Malaysia. Six Chinese exporting producers (including Weifang and TTCA) cooperated in the anti-circumvention investigation. The exports of the cooperating exporting producers in the anti-circumvention investigation covered around 69 % of the Chinese exports to Malaysia during the period 1 January 2014 until March 2015.

         B.   TERMS OF THE UNDERTAKING THAT HAVE BEEN BREACHED

               (8)

               The exporting producers concerned agreed, inter alia, to immediately notify the Commission of any changes to their corporate structure which occur during the period of application of the undertaking. They also agreed that taking part in a trading system leading to a risk of circumvention is a breach of the undertaking.

         C.   TERMS OF THE UNDERTAKING THAT ALLOW FOR WITHDRAWAL BY THE COMMISSION IN THE ABSENCE OF A BREACH

               (9)

               The undertaking also stipulates that the Commission may withdraw the acceptance of the undertaking at any time during its period of application if monitoring and enforcement prove to be impracticable.

         D.   MONITORING OF THE EXPORTING PRODUCERS CONCERNED

               (10)

               While monitoring compliance with the undertaking, the Commission verified information submitted by the exporting producers concerned that was relevant to the undertaking. In addition, it carried out verification visits at the premises of the exporting producers concerned. With reference to the findings of the anti-circumvention investigation as referred to in recital 7, the Commission verified the export transactions to Malaysia and the risk of circumvention in general. The findings are listed in recitals 11 to 20 below.

         E.   GROUNDS TO WITHDRAW THE ACCEPTANCE OF THE UNDERTAKING

               (11)

               TTCA had not reported changes in the company structure. The changes took place already in 2012 and were only communicated at the beginning of the verification visit in December 2015.

               (12)

               The Commission assessed this finding and concluded that TTCA had breached its reporting obligation.

               (13)

               Exports to Malaysia of the exporting producers concerned account for more than 70 % of the exports reported by all cooperating producers in the anti-circumvention investigation. Both exporting producers reported significant exports of citric acid to distributors/traders in Malaysia. During the verification visits, the exporting producers concerned could not provide evidence of the final destination of these exports and both companies argued that they do not trace their products once sold to a third country. Following the verification visits, the Commission gave ample time to both exporting producers to present evidence of the final destination.

               (14)

               The documentation subsequently submitted was not sufficient to establish the final destination of all exports to Malaysia.

               (15)

               The Commission refers to the findings of the anti-circumvention investigation as referred to in recital 7, in particular the absence of genuine production in Malaysia and the simultaneous surge in exports from the PRC to Malaysia and imports from Malaysia to the Union. As the majority of exports to Malaysia were made by the exporting producers concerned, the Commission concluded that both of them had taken part in a trading system leading to a risk of circumvention.

               (16)

               In addition, statistical information available for both exporting producers concerned showed that their exports to traders/distributors in Malaysia dropped significantly after the initiation of the anti-circumvention investigation.

               (17)

               The Commission assessed this change in pattern of trade. It concluded that there was no other reason for this change in pattern of trade than the initiation of the anti-circumvention investigation, thus confirming the existence of a risk of circumvention.

               (18)

               The Commission also assessed the intractability of exports of both exporting producers to other third countries. It concluded that there is a risk of circumvention, like for Malaysia, in particular as the exporting producers admitted that they do not trace the final destination of their exports.

               (19)

               The Commission assessed all findings and concluded that TTCA and Weifang had entered into trading system leading to a risk of circumvention. Therefore, a breach of the undertaking had occurred.

               (20)

               Furthermore, in light of the findings of the anti-circumvention investigation, the Commission also concluded that the trade pattern and the intractability of export transactions render the monitoring of the undertaking of TTCA and Weifang impracticable as it cannot be monitored that sales form the exporting producers concerned to third countries will not enter into free circulation in the Union.

         F.   CONCLUSION

               (21)

               The findings of breaches of the undertaking and its impracticability established for TTCA and Weifang justify the withdrawal of the acceptance of the undertaking for the two exporting producers concerned pursuant to Article 8(7) and (9) of the basic Regulation and pursuant to the terms of the undertaking.

         G.   WRITTEN SUBMISSIONS AND HEARINGS

               (22)

               Interested parties were granted the opportunity to be heard and to comment pursuant to Article 8(9) of the basic Regulation.

               (23)

               The Chamber together with TTCA and Weifang reiterated a proposal for an action plan for an improved implementation of the undertaking, which was submitted after the verification visits mentioned in recital 10 above. The plan provided for an additional monitoring mechanism under which all undertaking companies would provide the Commission regularly with an extended report on the third country sales, and the Chamber would apply early warning measures to prevent transhipments. However, this new mechanism would make the monitoring impractical. In any event, the proposed mechanism concerns the future implementation of the undertaking and does not remedy former breaches and incompliance.

               (24)

               Weifang and TTCA in their written submissions disputed the direct correlation of the changes in the exported quantities to Malaysia and the transhipments, as the change in exported quantity reflects only the changes in exogenous factors, i.e. decrease in the demand on the market. They argued that the conclusion of the Commission on the change in the pattern of trade is not substantiated by evidence and remains only a presumption. The anti-circumvention investigation, as referred to in recital 7, concluded that the measures in force were being circumvented by means of transhipment via Malaysia. The anti-circumvention investigation established that a significant change in the pattern of trade involving exports from the PRC and Malaysia to the Union has taken place following the imposition of measures on the product concerned in December 2008, without sufficient due cause or economic justification for such a change other than the imposition of the measures. Based on statistical data and the data provided by the companies, as referred to in recital 15, the majority of exports to Malaysia were made by the exporting producers concerned during the period 2011-2015. Consequently, the arguments of TTCA and Weifang cannot be accepted.

               (25)

               Weifang and TTCA do not admit their responsibility to trace their sales to unrelated traders in third countries. In fact, the companies themselves admitted that having recourse to independent traders in third countries creates an impracticability to trace the re-sales due to the nature of the goods and the market. Such considerations confirm the high risk of circumvention of the measures via transhipments which make the undertaking impracticable.

               (26)

               TTCA claimed to have been negligent, but not intentionally breaching the undertaking when not having informed the Commission of some changes in its corporate structure. The company argued that it had communicated to the Commission the changes on two occasions: during the expiry review as well as during the anti-circumvention investigation. TTCA claimed that the changes did not have any negative impact on the implementation of the undertaking. The Commission cannot accept these arguments since the company has not respected a clear reporting obligation set out in the undertaking, namely to immediately notify the European Commission of any changes to its corporate structure, as such changes may give rise to the need to modify certain aspects of the undertaking and/or its monitoring if the Commission deems it necessary. Such changes have to be notified directly and explicitly in the context of monitoring activities, especially given the continuous contact between the undertaking companies and the competent Commission's service.

               (27)

               Furthermore, the Chamber together with TTCA and Weifang referred to the Union interest to maintain the undertaking. The Chamber, TTCA and Weifang argue that as a consequence of the withdrawal there will be an increase in price volatility and that this is unfavourable for the users of citric acid. The Commission cannot accept this argument. Price volatility might be a feature of any given product market but as such is not an element that affects the assessment of the practicability or breaches of undertakings.

               (28)

               None of the arguments presented by the Chamber and the exporting producers concerned is such as to alter the Commission's assessment that their undertaking was breached and its monitoring became impracticable.

         H.   WITHDRAWAL OF THE ACCEPTANCE OF THE UNDERTAKING AND IMPOSITION OF DEFINITIVE DUTIES

               (29)

               Therefore, in accordance with Article 8(9) of the basic Regulation and also in accordance with the relevant clauses of the undertaking authorising the Commission to unilaterally withdraw the undertaking, the Commission has concluded that the acceptance of the undertaking offered by Weifang and TTCA should be withdrawn and Implementing Decision (EU) 2015/87 should be amended. Accordingly, the definitive anti-dumping duty imposed by Article 1 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/82 should apply to imports of the product concerned produced by the companies Weifang Ensign Industry Co., Ltd (Taric additional code A882), and TTCA Co., Ltd (Taric additional code A878),

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1

               (3)

               Regulation (EU) No 576/2013 provides that dogs, cats and ferrets are not to be moved into a Member State from another Member State or from territories or third countries unless they have received an anti-rabies vaccination that complies with the validity requirements set out in Annex III thereto. However, the movement of young dogs, cats and ferrets which are not vaccinated or do not meet the validity requirements set out in Annex III thereto may be authorised from Member States or from territories or third countries listed pursuant to Article 13 of Regulation (EU) No 576/2013, where, inter alia, the owner or the authorised person provides a signed declaration that from birth until the time of the non-commercial movement the pet animals have had no contact with wild animals of species susceptible to rabies. It is therefore appropriate to set out the format, layout and language requirements for that declaration in this Regulation.

               (4)

               In addition, Regulation (EU) No 576/2013 provides that the Commission is to adopt two lists of territories or third countries from which dogs, cats or ferrets moved for non-commercial purposes into a Member State are not required to undergo a rabies antibody titration test. One of those lists should include those territories or third countries that have demonstrated that they apply rules the content and effect of which are the same as those applied by Member States and the other list should include those territories or third countries that have demonstrated that they meet at least the criteria laid down in Article 13(2) of Regulation (EU) No 576/2013. It is therefore appropriate to set out those lists in an Annex to this Regulation.

               (5)

               In addition, those lists should take account of the provisions of Treaty of Accession of Croatia, according to which Croatia is to become a member of the European Union on 1 July 2013 and European Council Decision 2012/419/EU of 11 July 2012 amending the status of Mayotte with regard to the European Union (3) which provides that from 1 January 2014 Mayotte is to cease to be an overseas country or territory to which the provisions of Part Four of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union apply and is to become an outermost region of the Union within the meaning of Article 349 of that Treaty.

               (6)

               Regulation (EU) No 576/2013 also provides that dogs, cats and ferrets are not to be moved into a Member State from a territory or a third country other than those listed in an Annex to this Regulation unless they have undergone a rabies antibody titration test that complies with the validity requirements set out in Annex IV to Regulation (EU) No 576/2013. The transit through one of those territories or third countries is however not subject to that test where the owner or the authorised person provides a signed declaration that the animals have had no contact with animals of species susceptible to rabies and remain secured within a means of transport or within the perimeter of an international airport. It is therefore appropriate to set out the format, layout and language requirements for that declaration in this Regulation.

               (7)

               The validity requirements set out in Annex IV to Regulation (EU) No 576/2013 include the obligation to perform that test in a laboratory approved in accordance with Council Decision 2000/258/EC of 20 March 2000 designating a specific institute responsible for establishing the criteria necessary for standardising the serological tests to monitor the effectiveness of rabies vaccines (4), which provides that the Agence française de sécurité sanitaire des aliments (AFSSA) in Nancy, France (integrated since 1 July 2010 into the Agence nationale de sécurité sanitaire de l'alimentation, de l’environnement et du travail, ANSES) is to appraise the laboratories in Member States and third countries for the purposes of their authorisation to carry out serological tests to monitor the effectiveness of rabies vaccines in dogs, cats and ferrets.

               (8)

               Regulation (EU) No 576/2013 also provides that dogs, cats and ferrets moved into a Member State from another Member State for non-commercial purposes are to be accompanied by an identification document in the format of a passport in accordance with a model to be adopted by the Commission. That model is to contain the entries for the insertion of the information laid down in Regulation (EU) No 576/2013. The model and additional requirements for the passport should be set out in an Annex to this Regulation and, for the sake of clarity and simplification of Union legislation, Commission Decision 2003/803/EC of 26 November 2003 establishing a model passport for the intra-Community movements of dogs, cats and ferrets (5) should be repealed.

               (9)

               Regulation (EU) No 576/2013 also provides that dogs, cats and ferrets moved into a Member State from a territory or a third country for non-commercial purposes are to be accompanied by an identification document in the format of an animal health certificate in accordance with a model to be adopted by the Commission. That model is to contain the entries for the insertion of the information laid down in Regulation (EU) No 576/2013. It is therefore appropriate to set out that model in an Annex to this Regulation.

               (10)

               By way of derogation from the format of the animal health certificate provided for in the case of a movement into a Member State from a territory or a third country, Regulation (EU) No 576/2013 provides that Member States are to authorise the non-commercial movement of dogs, cats and ferrets from a territory or a third country that has demonstrated that it applies rules the content and effect of which are the same as those applied by Member States, where the identification document accompanying them has been issued in accordance with the procedure provided for in the case of a movement into a Member State from another Member State. However, a number of technical adaptations are necessary to the model passport to be used in such cases, with regard in particular to features on the cover page that cannot fully comply with the requirements applicable to passports issued by a Member State. For reasons of clarity, it is therefore appropriate to set out a model for such passports in this Regulation.

               (11)

               Regulation (EU) No 576/2013 provides that where the number of dogs, cats or ferrets moved for non-commercial purposes during a single movement exceeds five, the relevant animal health requirements laid down in Council Directive 92/65/EEC (6) of 13 July 1992 laying down the 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 are to apply to those animals, except under specific conditions and for certain categories of animals.

               (12)

               In addition Commission Decision 2004/839/EC of 3 December 2004 establishing conditions for non-commercial movements of young dogs and cats from third countries into the Community (7) and Commission Decision 2005/91/EC of 2 February 2005 establishing the period after which the anti-rabies vaccination is considered as valid (8) were adopted in order to provide for uniform rules for the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 998/2003. The rules provided for in those acts have been reviewed and are now incorporated in the provisions of Regulation (EU) No 576/2013. For the sake of clarity and simplification of Union legislation, Decisions 2004/839/EC and 2005/91/EC should therefore be repealed.

               (13)

               Council Directive 96/93/EC of 17 December 1996 on the certification of animals and animal products (9) lays down the rules to be observed in issuing the certificates required by veterinary legislation to prevent misleading or fraudulent certification. It is appropriate to ensure that rules and principles at least equivalent to those laid down in that Directive are applied by official veterinarians of third countries.

               (14)

               Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1152/2011 of 14 July 2011 supplementing Regulation (EC) No 998/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards preventive health measures for the control of Echinococcus multilocularis infection in dogs (10) provides that from 1 January 2012, dogs entering Member States or parts thereof listed in Annex I thereto are to be treated against the parasite Echinococcus multilocularis in accordance with the requirements set out in that Regulation.

               (15)

               This Regulation should apply without prejudice to Commission Decision 2006/146/EC of 21 February 2006 on certain protection measures with regard to certain fruit bats, dogs and cats coming from Malaysia (Peninsula) and Australia (11) which prohibits imports of dogs and cats from Malaysia (Peninsula) and cats from Australia unless certain conditions are met regarding respectively Nipah disease and Hendra disease.

               (16)

               This Regulation should apply from the date of application of Regulation (EU) No 576/2013.

               (17)

               The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,

   correcting the Slovenian version of Commission Regulation (EC) No 504/2008 implementing Council Directives 90/426/EEC and 90/427/EEC as regards methods for the identification of equidae
   (Text with EEA relevance)
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   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 (1), and in particular Article 4(4) thereof,
   Having regard to Council Directive 90/427/EEC of 26 June 1990 on the zootechnical and genealogical conditions governing intra-Community trade in equidae (2), and in particular Article 4(2)(c) and (d), the second indent of Article 6(2) and the first subparagraph of Article 8(1) thereof,
   Having regard to Council Directive 94/28/EC of 23 June 1994 laying down the principles relating to the zootechnical and genealogical conditions applicable to imports from third countries of animals, their semen, ova and embryos, and amending Directive 77/504/EEC on pure-bred breeding animals of the bovine species (3), and in particular Article 3(4) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               In the Slovenian language version of Commission Regulation (EC) No 504/2008 (4) the phrase ‘all types including VEE’ is erroneous and therefore a correction of the Slovenian language version is necessary. The other language versions are not affected.

               (2)

               Regulation (EC) No 504/2008 should therefore be corrected accordingly.

               (3)

               The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health and the Standing Committee on Zootechnics,

   amending Regulation (EC) No 607/2009 laying down certain detailed rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 479/2008 as regards protected designations of origin and geographical indications, traditional terms, labelling and presentation of certain wine sector products
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (‘Single CMO’ Regulation) (1), and in particular Article 121, first paragraph, point (m), in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               In accordance with Article 118y(1)(e) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007, labelling and presentation of sparkling wine, aerated sparkling wine, quality sparkling wine or quality aromatic sparkling wine must indicate the name of the producer or vendor. Article 56(3) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 607/2009 (2) states that this indication shall be supplemented by the words ‧producer‧ or ‧produced by‧ and ‧vendor‧ or ‧sold by‧, or equivalent. This provision also states that the Member States may decide to make compulsory the indication of the producer and that, in this case, they may authorise the replacement of the words ‧producer‧ or ‧produced by‧ by another word. If, for the labelling of sparkling wines, certain words are traditionally recognised and used in Member States, and if the latter decide to make compulsory the indication of the producer and authorise the replacement of the words ‧producer‧ and ‧produced by‧ by other words, these words should be those traditionally used in the sector. Furthermore, in order to inform consumers about the terminology used in this field, it is necessary to specify the words which may be authorised in the various EU languages.

               (2)

               Regulation (EC) No 607/2009 should therefore be amended accordingly.

               (3)

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

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   Regulation (EC) No 607/2009 is amended as follows:

               1)

               In the second subparagraph of Article 56(3), point (b) is replaced by the following:

                           ‧b)

                           to authorise the replacement of the words ‧producer‧ or ‧produced by‧ by the words listed in Annex Xa to this Regulation.‧

               2)

               Annex Xa, the text of which is set out in the Annex hereto, is inserted.

         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.

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 57/2012
   of 23 January 2012
   suspending the tendering procedure opened by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1239/2011
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1), and in particular Article 187, in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1239/2011 (2) opened a standing invitation to tender for the 2011/2012 marketing year for imports of sugar of CN code 1701 at a reduced customs duty.

               (2)

               The availability of supply on the Union sugar market has improved, therefore further reduction of the import duty will not be necessary and the submission of tenders should be suspended.

               (3)
