         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 724/2014
   of 26 June 2014
   on the interchange standard for the transmission of data required under Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the European system of national and regional accounts in the European Union
   (Text with EEA relevance)
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 May 2013 on the European system of national and regional accounts in the European Union (1), and in particular Article 3(2) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               It follows from Article 3(2) of Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 that Member States should transmit to the Commission the data and metadata required by the Regulation in accordance with a specified interchange standard and other practical arrangements which should be specified by the Commission.

               (2)

               Applying a single standard for the exchange and transmission of data for the statistics covered by Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 would make a considerable contribution to business process integration in this statistical area.

               (3)

               The Statistical Data and Metadata Exchange (SDMX) initiative on statistical and technical standards for the exchange and sharing of data and metadata was launched by the Bank of International Settlements, the European Central Bank, the Commission (Eurostat), the International Monetary Fund, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the United Nations and the World Bank. For the exchange of official statistics, SDMX provides statistical and technical standards, including the SDMX Markup Language, using XML syntax (‘SDMX-ML format’). A new data format and data structure definition designed in accordance with this standard should therefore be introduced. In order to facilitate the transition to the new format, the Commission should, for the first two years after the entry into force of the Regulation, provide Member States with templates, which can be used as inputs to SDMX conversion tools.

               (4)

               The Commission should make available detailed documentation in relation to the SDMX data structure definitions and supply guidelines on their implementation.

               (5)

               The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the European Statistical System Committee,

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   Standard for the transmission of data
   Member States shall provide data required by the Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 using SDMX data structure definitions.
   Article 2
   Technical specifications of data format
   Member States shall provide data and metadata in SDMX-ML format.
   Article 3
   Entry into force
   This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
   It shall apply from 1 September 2014.

      This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
      Done at Brussels, 26 June 2014.

   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine (1), and in particular Article 33 thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Article 3(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 491/2009 of 25 May 2009 amending Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (2) stipulates that Article 128(3) of Council Regulation (EC) No 479/2008 of 29 April 2008 on the common organisation of the market in wine, amending Regulations (EC) No 1493/1999, (EC) No 1782/2003, (EC) No 1290/2005 and (EC) No 3/2008 and repealing Regulations (EEC) No 2392/86 and (EC) No 1493/1999 (3) continues to apply even though the latter regulation has been repealed.

               (2)

               Article 128 of Council Regulation (EC) No 479/2008 stipulates that the measures concerning market mechanisms set out in Title III of Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine (4) continue to apply even if the latter regulation is repealed, if those measures have been initiated or undertaken by 1 August 2008. Similarly, pursuant to Article 103 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 555/2008 of 27 June 2008 laying down detailed rules for implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 479/2008 on the common organisation of the market in wine (5) as regards support programmes, trade with third countries, production potential and on controls in the wine sector, the relevant rules set out in Commission Regulation (EC) No 1623/2000 of 25 July 2000 laying down detailed rules for implementing Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine with regard to market mechanisms (6) continue to apply even though Regulation (EC) No 1623/2000 has been repealed, in so far as those rules relate to measures commenced before 1 August 2008.

               (3)

               Stocks of wine alcohol acquired before 1 August 2008 must be disposed of. In accordance with Article 128(3)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 479/2008 and Article 103(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 555/2008, Article 31 of Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 and Chapter IV of Regulation (EC) No 1623/2000 continue to apply for this measure.

               (4)

               Regulation (EC) No 1623/2000 lays down, inter alia, the detailed rules for disposing of stocks of alcohol arising from distillation pursuant to Articles 27, 28 and 30 of Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 held by intervention agencies.

               (5)

               In accordance with Article 80 of Regulation (EC) No 1623/2000, a tendering procedure should be organised for the sale of wine alcohol for new industrial uses with a view to reducing the stocks of wine alcohol in the Union and enabling small-scale industrial projects to be carried out in the Union.

      For full details and guidance see:
      http://ec.europa.eu/dgs/communication/services/visual_identity/pdf/use-emblem_en.pdf

         SYMBOLIC DESCRIPTION

      Against a background of blue sky, 12 golden stars form a circle representing the union of the peoples of Europe. The number of stars is fixed, 12 being the symbol of perfection and unity.

         HERALDIC DESCRIPTION

      On an azure field a circle of 12 golden mullets, their points not touching.

         GEOMETRIC DESCRIPTION

      The emblem has the form of a blue rectangular flag of which the fly is one and a half times the length of the hoist. Twelve gold stars situated at equal intervals form an invisible circle whose centre is the point of intersection of the diagonals of the rectangle. The radius of the circle is equal to one-third of the height of the hoist. Each of the stars has five points, which are situated on the circumference of an invisible circle whose radius is equal to 1/18th of the height of the hoist. All the stars are upright, i.e. with one point vertical and two points in a straight line at right angles to the mast. The circle is arranged so that the stars appear in the position of the hours on the face of a clock. Their number is invariable.

         REGULATION COLOURS

      The emblem is in the following colours:

                  —

                  PANTONE REFLEX BLUE for the surface of the rectangle;

                  —

                  PANTONE YELLOW for the stars.

         FOUR-COLOUR PROCESS

      If the four-colour process is used, recreate the two standard colours by using the four colours of the four-colour process.
      PANTONE YELLOW is obtained by using 100 % ‘Process Yellow’.
      PANTONE REFLEX BLUE is obtained by mixing 100 % ‘Process Cyan’ and 80 % ‘Process Magenta’.

         INTERNET

      PANTONE REFLEX BLUE corresponds to the web-palette colour RGB: 0/51/153 (hexadecimal: 003399) and PANTONE YELLOW corresponds to the web-palette colour RGB: 255/204/0 (hexadecimal: FFCC00).

         MONOCHROME REPRODUCTION PROCESS

      Using black, outline the rectangle in black and print the stars in black on white.
      Using blue (Reflex Blue), use 100 % with the stars reproduced in negative white.

         REPRODUCTION ON A COLOURED BACKGROUND

      If there is no alternative to a coloured background, put a white border around the rectangle, the width of the border being 1/25th of the height of the rectangle

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/1007
   of 22 June 2016
   concerning the authorisation of ammonium chloride as a feed additive for ruminants other than lambs for fattening, cats and dogs (holder of the authorisation Latochema Co. Ltd)
   (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 ammonium chloride. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.

               (3)

               That application concerns the authorisation of ammonium chloride as a feed additive for ruminants, cats and dogs to be classified in the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’.

               (4)

               The additive was already authorised for use in lambs for fattening by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 832/2012 (2).

               (5)

               The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 4 December 2015 (3) that, under the proposed conditions of use, the preparation of ammonium chloride is presumed not to have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment and that its use can reduce the pH value in the urine. 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.

               (6)

               The assessment of ammonium chloride 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 preparation should be authorised as specified in the Annex to this Regulation.

               (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
   Ammonium chloride as specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’ and to the functional group ‘other zootechnical additives’, 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.
      Done at Brussels, 22 June 2016.

   amending the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 3199/93 on the mutual recognition of procedures for the complete denaturing of alcohol for the purposes of exemption from excise duty, as regards the entries concerning the Czech Republic and Latvia
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Directive 92/83/EEC of 19 October 1992 on the harmonisation of the structures of excise duties on alcohol and alcoholic beverages (1), and in particular Article 27(4) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Pursuant to Article 27(1)(a) of Directive 92/83/EEC, Member States are required to exempt from excise duty alcohol which has been completely denatured in accordance with the requirements of any Member State, provided that such requirements have been duly notified and accepted in accordance with the conditions laid down in paragraphs 3 and 4 of that Article.

               (2)

               Commission Regulation (EC) No 3199/93 (2) provides that the denaturants which are employed in each Member State for the purposes of completely denaturing alcohol in accordance with Article 27(1)(a) of Directive 92/83/EEC are to be described in the Annex to that Regulation.

               (3)

               On 13 May 2010 the Czech Republic communicated some changes to its denaturing processes authorised by Regulation (EC) No 3199/93.

               (4)

               The Commission transmitted the communication of the Czech Republic to the other Member States on 18 June 2010.

               (5)

               Objections have been received to the requirements notified by the Czech Republic. Therefore, the procedure referred to in Article 27(4) of Directive 92/83/EEC has been duly followed. Following discussion in the Committee on Excise Duties, the Czech Republic revised its original proposal so that the proposed requirements should not give rise to evasion, avoidance or abuse.

               (6)

               In accordance with Article 27(5) of Directive 92/83/EEC, Poland notified the Commission on 26 May 2010 that it had detected abuse of completely denatured alcohol, exempted from excise duty pursuant to Article 27(1)(a) of Directive 92/83/EEC, and denatured according to the method of Latvia authorised by Regulation (EC) No 3199/93, which is a mixture of a minimum amount of 3 litres of isopropyl alcohol and 2 grams of denatonium benzoate per 100 litres of spirit.

               (7)

               The Commission transmitted the communication of Poland to the other Member States on 25 June 2010.
