         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 821/2014
   of 28 July 2014
   laying down rules for the application of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards detailed arrangements for the transfer and management of programme contributions, the reporting on financial instruments, technical characteristics of information and communication measures for operations and the system to record and store data
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 laying down common provisions on the European Regional Development Fund, the European Social Fund, the Cohesion Fund, the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development and the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund and laying down general provisions on the European Regional Development Fund, the European Social Fund, the Cohesion Fund and the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 1083/2006 (1), and in particular Articles 38(10), 46(3), 115(4) and the second subparagraph of Article 125(8) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 215/2014 (2) lays down provisions necessary for the preparation of programmes. In order to ensure implementation of the programmes financed by the European Structural and Investment Funds (the ‘ESI Funds’), it is necessary to lay down further provisions for the application of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013. To facilitate a comprehensive view and the access to those provisions, those provisions should be set out in one implementing act.

               (2)

               To increase flexibility in mobilising support for financial instruments from different sources managed by the managing authority in one of the ways set out in the first subparagraph of Article 38(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013, it is necessary to clarify how the programme contributions are transferred and managed. In particular it is necessary to clarify the circumstances under which a financial instrument may receive contributions from more than one programme or from more than one priority axis or measure of the same programme, and the conditions under which national public or private contributions to financial instruments made at the level of final recipients can be taken into consideration as national co-financing resources.

               (3)

               It is necessary to establish a model for reporting on financial instruments to the Commission in order to ensure that the managing authorities provide the information required by Article 46(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 in a consistent and comparable way. The model for reporting on financial instruments is also necessary to enable the Commission to provide summaries of the data on progress made in financing and implementing the financial instruments.

               (4)

               In order to ensure a harmonised visual identity for information and communication measures for operations in the area of Union cohesion policy, the instructions for creating the Union emblem and a definition of the standard colours should be established, as well as technical characteristics for displaying the Union emblem and the reference to the Fund or Funds supporting the operation.

      Graphic standards for creating the Union emblem and the definition of the standard colours
      SYMBOLIC DESCRIPTION
      Against a background of blue sky, twelve golden stars form a circle representing the union of the peoples of Europe. The number of stars is fixed, twelve being the symbol of perfection and unity.
      HERALDIC DESCRIPTION
      On an azure field a circle of twelve 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 center 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 one eighteenth 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 in the web-palette colour RGB:0/51/153 (hexadecimal: 003399) and PANTONE YELLOW corresponds in 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.

   of 24 July 2015
   on the issue of licences for importing rice under the tariff quotas opened for the July 2015 subperiod by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1273/2011

The extent to which import licences may be issued should therefore be determined by fixing the allocation coefficient to be applied to the quantities requested under the quota concerned, calculated in accordance with Article 7(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1301/2006 (3).

               (4)

               (5)

               The total quantity available for the following subperiod should also be fixed for the quotas with order number 09.4127 — 09.4128 — 09.4129 — 09.4130 — 09.4148 — 09.4112 — 09.4116 — 09.4117 — 09.4118 — 09.4119 and 09.4166, in accordance with the first subparagraph of Article 5 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1273/2011.

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2015/1308
   of 29 July 2015
   amending Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 as regards the substance ‘aluminium salicylate, basic’
   (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 (hereinafter ‘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)

               Aluminium salicylate, basic, is already included in this table according to which aluminium salicylate, basic, is allowed for (i) the oral use for bovine species, excluding species producing milk for human consumption; and (ii) the topical use for all food producing species, excluding fin fish.

               (4)

               An application for a modification of the existing entry for aluminium salicylate, basic, has been submitted to the European Medicines Agency (hereinafter ‘EMA’).

               (5)

               The EMA, based on the opinion of the Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use, has recommended to maintain the ‘No MRL required’ classification for aluminium salicylate, basic, but only for the topical use of this substance and only for other food producing species than bovine species, caprine, Equidae, rabbit and fin fish. The existing entry for bovine species should be replaced by numerical MRLs as, given that the substance is now proposed for use in adult animals, the ‘No MRL required’ classification is no longer valid and the establishment of limits in bovine tissues and milk is required.

               (6)

               According to Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 470/2009, the 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)

               The EMA has considered that the extrapolation of the numerical MRLs for aluminium salicylate, basic, recommended for bovine species to goats, horses and rabbits is appropriate.

               (8)

               Table 1 of the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly.

               (9)

               The analytical method for the monitoring of the proposed MRLs for aluminium salicylate, basic, in bovine tissues or in bovine milk is available, yet not sufficiently validated.

               (10)

               According to Article 14(4) of Regulation (EC) No 470/2009, a provisional MRL may be established in cases where scientific data are incomplete, provided that there are no grounds for supposing that residues of that substance at the level proposed constitute a hazard to human health.

               (11)

               The proposed numerical MRLs should therefore be provisional and expire on 31 December 2016.

               (12)

               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.
   It shall apply from 28 September 2015.

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