         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 495/2013
   of 29 May 2013
   amending Implementing Regulation (EU) No 996/2012 imposing special conditions governing the import of feed and food originating in or consigned from Japan following the accident at the Fukushima nuclear power station
   (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 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 January 2002 laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of food safety (1), and in particular Article 53(1)(b)(ii) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Article 53 of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 provides for the possibility to adopt appropriate Union emergency measures for food and feed imported from a third country in order to protect public health, animal health or the environment, where the risk cannot be contained satisfactorily by means of measures taken by the Member States individually.

               (2)

               Following the accident at the Fukushima nuclear power station on 11 March 2011, the Commission was informed that radionuclide levels in certain food products originating in Japan exceeded the action levels in food applicable in Japan. Such contamination may constitute a threat to public and animal health in the Union and therefore Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 297/2011 of 25 March 2011 imposing special conditions governing the import of feed and food originating in or consigned from Japan following the accident at the Fukushima nuclear power station (2) was adopted. That Regulation was later replaced by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 961/2011 (3), Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 284/2012 (4) and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 996/2012 (5).

               (3)

               Article 17 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 996/2012 provides for a review of the provisions when the results of sampling and analysis on the presence of radioactivity of feed and food of the third growing season after the accident will be available, i.e. by 31 March 2014. However, in accordance with that Article, the provisions concerning the products for which the harvest is mainly in the second part of the second growing season and therefore all the data of the second growing season are not yet available, should be reviewed by 31 March 2013.

               (4)

               The measures have been reviewed taking into account the occurrence data on radioactivity in feed and food provided by the Japanese authorities for the period between September 2012 and January 2013.

               (5)

               As regards the prefectures of Gunma, Ibaraki, Tochigi, Miyagi, Saitama, Tokyo, Iwate, Chiba and Kanagawa, Implementing Regulation (EU) No 996/2012 requires to sample and analyse, before export to the Union, mushrooms, tea, fishery products, certain edible wild plants, certain vegetables, certain fruits, rice and soybeans and the processed and derived products thereof. Following the detailed assessment of the data provided, pears, taro, yacon, pome fruit, pawpaw and scallops should be removed from the list of products for which sampling and analysis are required before export while buckwheat, lotus root and threeleaf arrowroot should be included in that list. Given that the import of fresh bovine meat from Japan has been recently allowed by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 196/2013 of 7 March 2013 amending Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 as regards the new entry for Japan in the list of third countries or parts thereof from which imports into the European Union of certain fresh meat are authorised (6), it is necessary to add fresh bovine meat to the list of products for which sampling and analysis are required before export.

               (6)

               Following findings of non-compliance, it is appropriate to add the requirement for sampling and analysis before export for mushrooms from the prefectures Nagano, Niigata and Aomori.

               (7)

               Therefore Implementing Regulation (EU) No 996/2012 should be amended accordingly.

               (8)

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

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 304/2013
   of 27 March 2013
   fixing the import duties in the cereals sector applicable from 1 April 2013
   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),
   Having regard to Commission Regulation (EU) No 642/2010 of 20 July 2010 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 in respect of import duties in the cereals sector (2), and in particular Article 2(1) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Article 136(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 states that the import duty on products covered by CN codes 1001 19 00, 1001 11 00, ex 1001 91 20 (common wheat seed), ex 1001 99 00 (high quality common wheat other than for sowing), 1002 10 00, 1002 90 00, 1005 10 90, 1005 90 00, 1007 10 90 and 1007 90 00 is to be equal to the intervention price valid for such products on importation and increased by 55 %, minus the cif import price applicable to the consignment in question. However, that duty may not exceed the rate of duty in the Common Customs Tariff.

               (2)

               Article 136(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 lays down that, in order to calculate the import duty referred to in paragraph 1 of that Article, representative cif import prices are to be established on a regular basis for the products in question.

               (3)

               Under Article 2(2) of Regulation (EU) No 642/2010, the price to be used for the calculation of the import duty on products covered by CN codes 1001 19 00, 1001 11 00, ex 1001 91 20 (common wheat seed), ex 1001 99 00 (high quality common wheat other than for sowing), 1002 10 00, 1002 90 00, 1005 10 90, 1005 90 00, 1007 10 90 and 1007 90 00 is the daily cif representative import price determined as specified in Article 5 of that Regulation.

               (4)

               Import duties should be fixed for the period from 1 April 2013 and should apply until new import duties are fixed and enter into force.

               (5)

               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:

   of 14 September 2017
   amending Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 to classify the substance bromelain as regards its maximum residue limit
   (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 470/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 May 2009 laying down Community procedures for the establishment of residue limits of pharmacologically active substances in foodstuffs of animal origin, repealing Council Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 and amending Directive 2001/82/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Regulation (EC) No 726/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1), and in particular Article 14 in conjunction with Article 17 thereof,
   Having regard to the opinion of the European Medicines Agency formulated by the Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Article 17 of Regulation (EC) No 470/2009 requires that the maximum residue limit (‘MRL’) for pharmacologically active substances intended for use in the Union in veterinary medicinal products for food-producing animals or in biocidal products used in animal husbandry is established in a Regulation.

               (2)

               Table 1 of the Annex to Commission Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 (2) sets out the pharmacologically active substances and their classification regarding MRLs in foodstuffs of animal origin.

               (3)

               The substance bromelain is not included in that table.

               (4)

               An application for the establishment of MRLs for bromelain in porcine species has been submitted to the European Medicines Agency (‘EMA’).

               (5)

               EMA, based on the opinion of the Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use, has recommended that the establishment of an MRL for bromelain in porcine species is not necessary for the protection of human health.

               (6)

               According to Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 470/2009, EMA is to consider using MRLs established for a pharmacologically active substance in a particular foodstuff for another foodstuff derived from the same species, or MRLs established for a pharmacologically active substance in one or more species for other species.

               (7)

               EMA has considered that the extrapolation of the ‘no MRL required’ classification for bromelain from porcine species to other species is not appropriate at this time due to insufficient data.

               (8)

               Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly.

               (9)

               The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Veterinary Medicinal Products,

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   The Annex to Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 is amended as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
   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.

               (2)

               The standard import value is calculated each working day, in accordance with Article 136(1) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 543/2011, taking into account variable daily data. Therefore this Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union,

      of 10 July 2017
      amending Implementing Regulation (EU) No 809/2014 laying down rules for the application of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to the integrated administration and control system, rural development measures and cross-compliance
      THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
      Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
      Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the financing, management and monitoring of the common agricultural policy and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 352/78, (EC) No 165/94, (EC) No 2799/98, (EC) No 814/2000, (EC) No 1290/2005 and (EC) No 485/2008 (1), and in particular Article 62(2)(a) and (b) and Article 78(b) and (c) thereof,
      Whereas:

                  (1)

                  Article 21 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 809/2014 (2) lays down the requirements pertaining to livestock aid applications and to payment claims under animal-related support measures. In the case of short production-cycle species with a high turnover of animals, the number of animals in respect of which a livestock payment claim under the measure provided for in Article 33 of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3) is submitted, may change significantly throughout the claim year. This may lead to a substantial difference between the number of animals declared in the livestock payment claim and the number of animals that will eventually benefit from increased welfare conditions. As a consequence, the number of animals declared in the livestock payment claim turns out to be only indicative. In respect of those short production-cycle species, Member States should therefore be allowed to establish a system which allows a beneficiary to apply for support in respect of all animals which qualify for support at a date or during a period determined by the Member State. In the absence of a computerised database, it should be possible to establish the actual number of animals on the basis of slaughter certificates or other supporting documents submitted to the competent authority after the date of submission of the livestock payment claim.

                  (2)

                  The application of selection criteria is not obligatory for all measures or types of operations. Therefore, the administrative checks carried out on the applications for support should only include the verification of that element where necessary.

                  (3)

                  The verification of the reasonableness of the costs is made at the stage of the administrative checks relating to the application for support and on the basis of a defined evaluation system. Specific rules should however apply where the risk of unreasonable costs is low or where the content of the costs may not be defined before the implementation of the operation.

                  (4)

                  In accordance with Article 67(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4), the amount of the support may be established on the basis of standard scales of unit costs, lump sums or flat rates. In such cases, the administrative checks should not include the verification of the amount of the costs incurred and the payments made by the beneficiary.

                  (5)

                  The rules on checks which apply to financial instruments should be adapted in order to ensure consistency with the management and control rules laid down in Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 and in Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 480/2014 (5) and to take into account the specificities of support granted in the form of a financial instrument.

                  (6)

                  The expenditure subject to on-the-spot checks should not be the expenditure to be paid, but the expenditure claimed to the paying agency. Since the expenditure to be paid can only be determined after all checks have been completed, taking that expenditure as subject of checks would render the achievement of the control rate unpredictable. In addition, the expenditure subject to on-the-spot checks should not include expenditure made by the paying agency only for advance payments, since that expenditure does not correspond to expenditure incurred by the beneficiary. Furthermore, expenditure related to financial instruments should be counted towards the achievement of the minimum control rate only to the extent that it is actually checked by the competent authority. In order to ensure the fulfilment of the minimum control rate each calendar year, the checks should be performed by the date foreseen for the submission of the control data and control statistics laid down in Article 9 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 809/2014.

                  (7)

                  In order not to duplicate checks unnecessarily, on-the-spot checks should only cover elements that have not yet been the subject of administrative checks.

                  (8)

                  In accordance with Articles 48 and 51 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 809/2014, checks have to verify compliance with, inter alia, eligibility criteria, commitments and other obligations. Furthermore, according to Article 50(4)(a) of that Implementing Regulation, the sample of operations to be checked on-the-spot has to take into account the need to check an appropriate mix of types and sizes of operations. The measure-specific provisions on the subject matter or the intensity of the checks laid down in Articles 54 to 59 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 809/2014 are therefore unnecessary.

                  (9)

                  As regards administrative penalties, in order to ensure equal treatment of the operations selected and the operations not selected for on-the-spot checks, the expenditure checked should, in both cases, be the expenditure claimed.

                  (10)

                  Implementing Regulation (EU) No 809/2014 should therefore be amended accordingly.

                  (11)

                  The amendments made by this Regulation should apply to applications for support or payment claims relating to claim years or premium periods starting from 1 January 2018. However, taking into account the difficulties encountered in the claim year 2015 by the Member States having to adapt their systems to the deadline of submitting the livestock payment claim laid down in Article 13 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 809/2014, as well as to the system on reductions, exclusions and penalties provided for in Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 640/2014 (6), the provision allowing the actual number of animals of short production-cycle species to be established on the basis of slaughter certificates or other supporting documents submitted to the competent authority after the submission of the livestock payment claim should apply to livestock payment claims relating to claim years starting as from 1 January 2016.

                  (12)

                  The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Rural Development Committee,

            HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

      Implementing Regulation (EU) No 809/2014 is amended as follows:

                  In Article 21, the following paragraph 4a is inserted:
                  ‘4a.   For short production-cycle species supported under Article 33 of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 Member States may, in the absence of a computerised database, introduce procedures by which data contained in the slaughter certificates or in other supporting documents are to be used for the purposes of the livestock payment claim. Those data shall offer the level of assurance and implementation necessary for the proper management of the support measure involved at the level of individual animals.
                  The procedures referred to in the first subparagraph may consist of a system according to which a beneficiary applies for support in respect of all animals which, at a date or during a period determined by the Member State, qualify for support on the basis of the data contained in the slaughter certificates or in other supporting documents.
                  In that case, Member States shall take the necessary measures to guarantee that in accordance with the provisions applicable to the support measure in question, the date or the period referred to in the second subparagraph are clearly identified and known to the beneficiary.’

                  (2)

                  Article 48 is amended as follows:

                              (a)

                                          (ii)

                                          point (e) is replaced by the following:

                                                      ‘(e)

The costs shall be evaluated using a suitable evaluation system, such as reference costs, a comparison of different offers or an evaluation committee. For operations with a support rate up to 30 % or for operations supported under Article 35 of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013, the verification of the reasonableness of the costs may be carried out at the stage of the administrative checks on payment claims. For operations with eligible costs up to EUR 5 000, the reasonableness of the costs may be established by a draft budget agreed ex ante by the managing authority.’

                              (b)

                              In paragraph 3, points (a) and (b) are replaced by the following:
