         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2015/1104
   of 8 July 2015
   amending Implementing Regulation (EU) No 237/2012 as regards a new form of alpha-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.22) produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (CBS 615.94) and endo-1,4-beta-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.4) produced by Aspergillus niger (CBS 120604) (holder of authorisation Kerry Ingredients and Flavours)
   (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)

               The use of alpha-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.22) produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (CBS 615.94) and endo-1,4-beta-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.4) produced by Aspergillus niger (CBS 120604) was authorised for 10 years for chickens for fattening by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 237/2012 (2), and for minor poultry species for fattening and for chickens reared for laying by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1365/2013 (3).

               (3)

               In accordance with Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, the holder of the authorisation has proposed changing the terms of the authorisation to include a liquid form of alpha-galactosidase and endo-1,4-beta-glucanase to be used as a feed additive for chickens for fattening. The application was accompanied by the relevant supporting data. The Commission forwarded that application to the European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’).

               (4)

               The Authority concluded in its opinion of 28 October 2014 (4) that the liquid form of alpha-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.22) produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (CBS 615.94) and endo-1,4-beta-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.4) produced by Aspergillus niger (CBS 120604) does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment, and that it has a potential to favourably affect animal performance in chickens for fattening. 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 the preparation of alpha-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.22) produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (CBS 615.94) and endo-1,4-beta-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.4) produced by Aspergillus niger (CBS 120604) shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the existing authorisation should be modified in order to include the new form.

               (6)

               Therefore, the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 237/2012 should be amended accordingly.

               (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
   The Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 237/2012 is replaced by the text 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.

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 948/2014
   of 4 September 2014
   opening private storage for skimmed milk powder and fixing in advance the amount of aid
   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 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 18(2), Article 20(c), (f), (l), (m) and (n), and Article 223(3)(c) thereof,
   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 (2) and in particular Article 4 thereof,
   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 (3), and in particular Article 62(2)(b) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Article 17(g) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 provides for the granting of private storage aid for skimmed milk powder.

               (2)

               On 7 August 2014, the Russian government introduced a ban on imports of certain products from the Union to Russia, including dairy products. Developments in prices and stocks of skimmed milk powder indicate a particular difficult market situation which may be eliminated or reduced by storage. In view of the current market situation, it is appropriate to grant aid for private storage for skimmed milk powder and to fix the amount of aid in advance.

               (3)

               Commission Regulation (EC) No 826/2008 (4) has established common rules for the implementation of a private storage aid scheme.

               (4)

               Pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 826/2008, aid fixed in advance is to be granted in accordance with the detailed rules and conditions provided for in Chapter III of that Regulation.

               (5)

               In accordance with Article 16(2)(c) of Regulation (EC) No 826/2008 and in order to ensure placing of homogeneous and manageable lots in storage it is appropriate to specify the requirements for a ‘storage lot’.

               (6)

               For reasons of administrative efficiency and simplification, and since the required information concerning storage details is already included in the application for aid, it is appropriate to waive the request to supply the same information after the conclusion of the contract as provided for in point (a) of the first paragraph of Article 20 of Regulation (EC) No 826/2008.

               (7)

               For reasons of simplification and logistic efficiency, Member States should be allowed to waive the requirement to mark the contract number on each unit stored where the contracts number is entered in the stores register.

               (8)

               For reasons of administrative efficiency and simplification, taking into account the particular situation for skimmed milk powder storage, the checks provided for in Article 36(6) of Regulation (EC) No 826/2008 should be carried out in respect of at least one half of the contracts. Consequently, a derogation from that Article should be provided for.

               (9)

               In accordance with Article 4 of Regulation (EU) No 1370/2013 the aid for private storage fixed in advance should be based on storage costs and/or other relevant market elements. It is appropriate to set an aid for fixed storage costs for entry and exit of the products concerned and an aid per day of storage for costs for storage and financing.

               (10)

               In accordance with Article 35(3) of Regulation (EC) No 826/2008 and in order to closely follow the use of the measure it is appropriate to specify the deadline for submitting the notifications provided for in Article 35(1)(a) of that Regulation.

               (11)

               In order to have an immediate impact on the market and to contribute to stabilise prices, the temporary measure provided for in this Regulation should enter into force on the day following that of its publication.

               (12)

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

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

   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 188(2) and (3) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Commission Regulation (EC) No 442/2009 (2) opened annual tariff quotas for imports of pigmeat products. The quotas listed in Part B of Annex I to that Regulation are managed using the simultaneous examination method.

               (2)

               The quantities covered by import licence applications lodged from 1 to 7 December 2014 for the subperiod 1 January to 31 March 2015 are smaller than those available. The quantities for which applications have not been lodged should therefore be determined and these should be added to the quantity fixed for the following quota subperiod.

               (3)

               In order to ensure the efficient management of the measure, this Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union,

            COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/823
      of 25 May 2016
      amending Regulation (EC) No 771/2008 laying down the rules of organisation and procedure of the Board of Appeal of the European Chemicals Agency
      (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 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), establishing a European Chemicals Agency, amending Directive 1999/45/EC and repealing Council Regulation (EEC) No 793/93 and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1488/94 as well as Council Directive 76/769/EEC and Commission Directives 91/155/EEC, 93/67/EEC, 93/105/EC and 2000/21/EC (1), and in particular Articles 93(4) and 132 thereof,
      Whereas:

                  (1)

                  The review of Commission Regulation (EC) No 771/2008 (2) concluded that Regulation (EC) No 771/2008 should be amended in various respects.

                  (2)

                  Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3) empowers the Agency to take certain individual decisions and entrusts the Board of Appeal established under Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 with the competence to decide upon appeals brought against the decisions referred to in Article 77(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012. It is therefore necessary to provide rules concerning the appeals brought against the decisions referred to in Article 77(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

                  (3)

                  Fees applicable for appeals against a decision by the Agency under Article 77 of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 are established by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 564/2013 (4). It is therefore necessary to provide rules on the fees applicable for appeals against a decision by the Agency under Article 77 of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

                  (4)

                  Since the Board of Appeal is currently established as a permanent structure within the Agency, it is necessary to ensure that appeals can be processed at a satisfactory rate. Therefore, the possibility to allocate appeals to additional or alternate members should be provided.

                  (5)

                  Drawing on current practice, it is also appropriate to provide the possibility for the parties to find an amicable agreement between them. In order to increase transparency, a member of the Board of Appeal should be appointed to facilitate the amicable agreement. A summary of the amicable agreement should be publicly available on the Agency's website.

                  (6)

                  In order to ensure the independence of the Board of Appeal, it is necessary that the Registrar should be appointed directly by the Chairman of the Board of Appeal.

                  (7)

                  For reasons of legal certainty, it is also appropriate to clarify the existing provisions on the confidentiality requests, in particular that the elements requested in the announcement cannot be claimed confidential.

                  (8)

                  To ensure an effective participation of the interveners, the intervention procedure should be streamlined to ensure further clarity and the deadline for submitting the application to intervene should be extended. In cases relating to Title VI Chapter 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, the Member States application to intervene should be allowed without having to justify their interest in the result of the case.

                  (9)

                  For reasons of legal certainty, it is appropriate to clarify the provisions on the costs in the sense that the parties bear their own costs.

                  (10)

                  To ease access to justice and reduce costs, it is also appropriate to clarify that parties can be represented by any person with authority to act and not necessarily by a representative with power of attorney.

                  (11)

                  The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established under Article 133 of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006,

            HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
      Article 1
      Regulation (EC) No 771/2008 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.

                     By derogation to the first paragraph, in cases relating to Title VI Chapter 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, the Member State whose competent authority has carried out the substance evaluation may intervene without having to establish an interest in the result of that case.

                     The intervention shall not confer the same procedural rights as those conferred on the parties and shall be ancillary to the main proceedings. It shall become devoid of purpose if the case is removed from the register of the Board of Appeal as a result of a party's discontinuance or withdrawal from the proceedings or of an amicable agreement between the parties, or where the notice of appeal is declared inadmissible.
                     Interveners shall accept the case as they find it at the time of their intervention.

                           The application to intervene shall be served on the parties in order to obtain any observations they may wish to make on that application before the Board of Appeal decides on it.
                     5.   Where the Board of Appeal decides to allow the intervention, the intervener shall receive a copy of every procedural document served on the parties provided for that purpose to the Board of Appeal by the parties. Confidential items or documents shall be excluded from such communication.
                     6.   The Board of Appeal shall decide whether or not to allow the application to intervene.
                     Where the Board of Appeal allows the intervention, the Chairman shall prescribe a period within which the intervener may submit a statement in intervention.

                                 where appropriate, an indication as to what information in the application to intervene is to be regarded as confidential and why.

                           After the statement in intervention has been lodged, the Chairman may prescribe a time-limit within which the parties may reply to that statement.

                     (14)

                     in Article 13, paragraph 4 is replaced by the following:
                     ‘4.   Hearings before the Board of Appeal shall be public, unless the Board of Appeal, of its own motion or at the request of a party, decides otherwise, when duly justified.’;

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2015/175
   of 5 February 2015
   laying down special conditions applicable to the import of guar gum originating in or consigned from India due to contamination risks by pentachlorophenol and dioxins
   (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(1) of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 provides for the possibility to adopt appropriate Union emergency measures for feed and food imported from a third country in order to protect human health, animal health and the environment, where the risk cannot be contained satisfactorily by means of measures taken by the Member States individually.

               (2)

               In July 2007, high levels of pentachlorophenol (PCP) and dioxins have been found in the Union in certain batches of guar gum originating in or consigned from India. Such contamination constitutes a threat to public health within the Union if no measures are taken to avoid the presence of pentachlorophenol and dioxins in guar gum.

               (3)

               Therefore special conditions on the imports of guar gum originating in or consigned from India were established by Commission Decision 2008/352/EC (2), later replaced by Commission Regulation (EU) No 258/2010 (3), due to contamination risks by pentachlorophenol and dioxins.

               (4)

               As follow-up to the audits of the Food and Veterinary Office of the European Commission (FVO) in 2007 and 2009, another audit took place in October 2011 in order to assess the systems in place to control PCP and dioxin contamination in guar gum originating in or consigned from India and intended for export to the Union.

               (5)

               During the audit of October 2011 the FVO observed that the competent authority of India has put in place a procedure to ensure that sampling is undertaken by one of two designated sampling bodies, in line with Union sampling provisions provided for in Commission Directive 2002/63/EC (4) and that all exported lots are accompanied by a certificate and by an analytical report from a laboratory accredited in accordance with EN ISO/IEC 17025 for the analysis of PCP in feed and food. The FVO noted that due to that procedure contaminated lots are not exported to the Union.

               (6)

               The European Union Reference Laboratory for Dioxins and PCBs in Feed and Food has carried out a study on the correlation between PCP and dioxins in contaminated guar gum from India. From this study it can be concluded that guar gum containing a level of PCP below the Maximum Residue Limit (MRL) of 0,01 mg/kg does not contain unacceptable levels of dioxins. Therefore compliance with the MRL on PCP, ensures in this specific case also a high level of human health protection as regards dioxins

               (7)

               The laboratory is still finding high levels of PCP in guar gum powder for export for use in food. As the legal status of PCP for industrial use remains unclear in India and as there is no evidence of the source of contamination, and no investigations on the source of contamination of non-compliant lots are undertaken, the potential for contaminated lots remains.

               (8)

               Those findings indicate that the contamination of guar gum with PCP cannot be regarded as an isolated incident and that only the effective analysis by the approved laboratory has prevented contaminated product from being further exported to the Union.

               (9)

               As the source of contamination is not yet eliminated it is appropriate to maintain special conditions for import. However, it is appropriate to bring the control measures at import in line with existing control measures at import applicable to certain food and feed of non-animal origin. Given that such alignment entails several changes, it is appropriate to repeal Regulation (EU) No 258/2010 and replace it by a new Implementing Regulation.

               (10)

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

   amending the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 37/2010, as regards the substance tulathromycin
   (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 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)

               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 are established in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 470/2009.

               (2)

               Pharmacologically active substances and their classification regarding MRLs in foodstuffs of animal origin are set out in the Annex to Commission Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 (2).

               (3)

               Tulathromycin is currently included in Table 1 of the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 as an allowed substance, for bovine and porcine species, applicable to fat (skin and fat for porcine species), liver and kidney.

               (4)

               An application for the modification of the existing entry for tulathromycin has been submitted to the European Medicines Agency.

               (5)

               The CVMP recommended the modification of the current Acceptable Daily Intake for tulathromycin, as well as the establishment of a provisional MRL for bovine and porcine species as the analytical method for monitoring residues in bovine and porcine species is not sufficiently validated for the MRLs proposed. The incomplete scientific data on the validation of the analytical method does not constitute a hazard to human health.

               (6)

               In accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 470/2009 the European Medicines Agency 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)

               The Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use concluded that the extrapolation to other food producing species cannot be supported for this substance.

               (8)

               Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 should therefore be amended to include the provisional MRLs for tulathromycin in respect of bovine and porcine species, applicable to muscle, skin and fat, liver and kidney. The provisional MRLs set out in that Table for bovine and porcine species should expire on 1 January 2015.

               (9)

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

               (10)

               It is appropriate to provide for a reasonable period of time for the stakeholders concerned to take measures that may be required to comply with the newly set MRL.

               (11)

               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.
