            COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/2304
      of 19 December 2016
      on the modalities, structure, periodicity and assessment indicators of the quality reports on data transmitted pursuant to Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council
      (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 4(3) thereof,
      Whereas:

                  (1)

                  Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 sets up the European System of Accounts 2010 (the ‘ESA 2010’) which establishes a programme setting out the time limits by which Member States are to transmit to the Commission the accounts and tables to be compiled in accordance with the methodology set out in that Regulation.

                  (2)

                  Pursuant to Article 4 of Regulation (EU) No 549/2013, the data covered by that Regulation is subject to the quality criteria set out in Article 12(1) of Regulation (EC) No 223/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2). Member States are to provide the Commission with a report on the quality of the transmitted data on national and regional accounts.

                  (3)

                  Temporary derogations were granted to Member States pursuant to the Commission Implementing Decision 2014/403/EU (3). Therefore, the content of the quality reports that the Commission requires Member States to submit should be adapted in accordance with those derogations. The requirement to provide quality reports should be phased in gradually by 2021 to allow Member States time to complete the major adaptations necessary for the introduction of ESA 2010 in the national statistical systems.

                  (4)

                  In accordance with Article 4(3) of Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 and for the purposes of applying the quality criteria referred to in Article 4(1) of that Regulation, the modalities, structure, periodicity and assessment indicators of the quality reports to be provided by Member States should be defined by the Commission by means of implementing acts.

                  (5)

                  As the information in the quality reports on national and regional accounts should be based on the European Statistical System standards on quality reporting published by the Commission (Eurostat), the Annex to this Regulation should be drawn up in line with those standards. Information about the ESA 2010 implementation already provided by Member States should be reused by the Commission and should not be requested in the quality reports.

                  (6)

                  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
      The quality report on national and regional accounts referred to in Article 4(2) of Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 shall cover the data sent by Member States in accordance with the ESA 2010 transmission programme as laid down in Annex B to Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 in the year preceding the report.
      Member States shall provide the quality report on an annual basis.
      Article 2
      The modalities, structure and assessment indicators of the quality reports on national and regional accounts referred to in Article 1 shall be those set out in the Annex.
      Article 3
      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, 19 December 2016.

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/672
   of 29 April 2016
   approving peracetic acid as an existing active substance for use in biocidal products for product-types 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6
   (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 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products (1), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 89(1) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 (2) establishes a list of existing active substances to be evaluated for their possible approval for use in biocidal products. That list includes peracetic acid.

               (2)

               Peracetic acid has been evaluated in accordance with Article 16(2) of Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (3) for use in product-type 1, human hygiene biocidal products, product-type 2, private area and public health area disinfectants and other biocidal products, product-type 3, veterinary hygiene biocidal products, product-type 4, food and feed area disinfectants, product-type 5, drinking water disinfectants, and product-type 6, in-can preservatives, as defined in Annex V to that Directive, which correspond respectively to product-types 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 as defined in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

               (3)

               Finland was designated as evaluating competent authority and submitted the assessment reports together with its recommendations on 16 January 2013.

               (4)

               In accordance with Article 7(1)(b) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014, the opinions of the European Chemicals Agency were formulated on 30 September 2015 by the Biocidal Products Committee, having regard to the conclusions of the evaluating competent authority.

               (5)

               According to those opinions, biocidal products used for product-types 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 and containing peracetic acid may be expected to satisfy the requirements of Article 19(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, provided that certain conditions concerning its use are complied with.

               (6)

               It is therefore appropriate to approve peracetic acid for use in biocidal products for product-types 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 subject to compliance with certain specifications and conditions.

               (7)

               For the use in product-type 4, the evaluation did not address the incorporation of biocidal products containing peracetic acid in materials and articles intended to come into contact directly or indirectly with food within the meaning of Article 1(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4). Such materials may require the establishment of specific limits on the migration into food, as referred to in Article 5(1)(e) of that Regulation. The approval should therefore not cover such use unless the Commission has established such limits or it has been established pursuant to that Regulation that such limits are not necessary.

               (8)

               Peracetic acid is in an aqueous solution containing acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide. Due to the presence of hydrogen peroxide, which can be used in the production of explosive precursors, Regulation (EU) No 98/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (5) should continue to apply to hydrogen peroxide.

               (9)

               A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before an active substance is approved, in order to permit interested parties to take the preparatory measures necessary to meet the new requirements.

               (10)

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

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   Peracetic acid is approved as an active substance for use in biocidal products for product-types 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, subject to the specifications and conditions set out in the 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.

   prohibiting fishing activities for traps registered in Italy, Portugal and Spain fishing for Bluefin tuna in the Atlantic Ocean, east of longitude 45° W, and in the Mediterranean Sea
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 of 20 November 2009 establishing a Community control system for ensuring compliance with the rules on the Common Fisheries Policy, (1) and in particular Article 36, paragraph 2 thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Council Regulation (EU) No 43/2014 of 20 January 2014 fixing for 2014 the fishing opportunities for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, applicable in Union waters and, to Union vessels, in certain non-Union waters (2) fixes the amount of Bluefin tuna which may be fished in 2014 in the Atlantic Ocean, east of longitude 45° W, and the Mediterranean Sea by European Union fishing vessels and traps.

               (2)

               Council Regulation (EC) No 302/2009 of 6 April 2009 concerning a multiannual recovery plan for Bluefin tuna in the Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean, amending Regulation (EC) No 43/2009 and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1559/2007 (3), requires Member States to inform the Commission of the individual quota allocated to their vessels over 24 metres. For catching vessels less than 24 metres and for traps, Member States need to inform the Commission at least of the quota allocated to producer organisations or groups of vessels fishing with similar gear.

               (3)

               The Common Fisheries Policy is designed to ensure the long-term viability of the fisheries sector through sustainable exploitation of living aquatic resources based on the precautionary approach.

               (4)

               In accordance with Article 36, paragraph 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009, where the Commission finds that, on the basis of information provided by Member States and of other information in its possession, fishing opportunities available to the European Union, a Member State or group of Member States are deemed to have been exhausted for one or more gears or fleets, the Commission shall inform the Member State(s) concerned thereof and shall prohibit fishing activities for the respective area, gear, stock, group of stocks or fleet involved in those specific fishing activities.

               (5)

               The information in the Commission's possession indicates that the fishing opportunities for bluefin tuna in the Atlantic Ocean, east of longitude 45° W, and the Mediterranean Sea allocated to traps registered in Italy, Portugal and Spain have been exhausted.

               (6)

               On the 7 July, Italy informed the Commission that it had imposed a stop on the fishing activities of its three traps active in the 2014 bluefin tuna fishery as of 29 June 2014 at 15:00.

               (7)

               On the 16 July, Portugal informed the Commission that it had imposed a stop on the fishing activities of its three traps active in the 2014 bluefin tuna fishery as of 15 July 2014 at 00:00.

               (8)

               On the 10, 18 and 20 June, Spain informed the Commission that it had imposed a stop on the fishing activities of its four traps active in the 2014 bluefin tuna fishery as of 10 June for two traps, as of 19 June for one trap and as of 20 June for the remaining trap resulting in the prohibition of all the activities as of 20 June 2014 at 00:00.

               (9)

               Without prejudice to the actions by Italy, Portugal and Spain mentioned above, it is necessary that the Commission confirms the prohibition of fishing for bluefin tuna in the Atlantic Ocean, east of longitude 45° W and the Mediterranean Sea by traps registered in Italy as of 29 June at 15:00, for traps registered in Portugal as of 15 July at 00:00 and for traps registered in Spain as of 20 June 2014 at 00:00 at the latest.

      COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 303/2014
   of 25 March 2014
   amending Council Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 establishing additional customs duties on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 of 25 April 2005 establishing additional customs duties on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America (1), and in particular Article 3 thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               As a result of the United States’ failure to bring the Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA) in compliance with its obligations under the World Trade Organization (WTO) agreements, Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 imposed a 15 % ad valorem additional customs duty on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America as from 1 May 2005. In conformity with the WTO authorisation to suspend the application of concessions to the United States, the Commission is to adjust the level of suspension annually to the level of nullification or impairment caused by the CDSOA to the European Union at that time.

               (2)

               The CDSOA disbursements for the most recent year for which data are available relate to the distribution of anti-dumping and countervailing duties collected during the Fiscal Year 2013 (1 October 2012-30 September 2013). On the basis of the data published by the United States’ Customs and Border Protection, the level of nullification or impairment caused to the Union is calculated at USD 872685.

               (3)

               The level of nullification or impairment and consequently of suspension has decreased. However, the level of suspension cannot be adjusted to the level of nullification or impairment by adding or removing products from the list in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 673/2005. As a consequence, in accordance with Article 3(1)(e) of that Regulation, the Commission should keep the list of products in Annex I unchanged and amend the rate of the additional duty in order to adjust the level of suspension to the level of nullification or impairment. The three products listed in Annex I should therefore be maintained on the list and the rate of additional import duty should be amended and set at 0,35 %.

               (4)

               The effect of a 0,35 % ad valorem additional import duty on imports from the United States of the products in Annex I represents, over one year, a value of trade that does not exceed USD 872 685.

               (5)

               To make sure that there are no delays in the application of the amended rate of additional import duty, this Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication.

               (6)

               Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 should therefore be amended accordingly.

               (7)

               The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion delivered by the Committee on Trade Retaliation,

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 is amended as follows:

               (1)

               Article 2 is replaced by the following:
               ‘Article 2
               An ad valorem duty of 0,35 % additional to the customs duty applicable under Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 (2) shall be imposed on the products originating in the United States of America listed in Annex I to this Regulation.

               (2)

               Annex I is replaced by the text set out in the Annex to this Regulation.

         Article 2
   This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
   It shall apply from 1 May 2014.

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