         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 989/2012
   of 25 October 2012
   concerning the authorisation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Trichoderma reesei (MULC 49755) and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced by Trichoderma reesei (MULC 49754) as a feed additive for laying hens and minor poultry species for fattening and laying (holder of authorisation Aveve NV)
   (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 endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Trichoderma reesei (MULC 49755) and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced by Trichoderma reesei (MULC 49754). The application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.

               (3)

               The application concerns the authorisation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Trichoderma reesei (MULC 49755) and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced by Trichoderma reesei (MULC 49754) as a feed additive for laying hens and minor poultry species for fattening and laying, to be classified in the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’.

               (4)

               The use of those enzymes was authorised for 10 years for chickens for fattening by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1091/2009 (2) and for 10 years for weaned piglets by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1088/2011 (3).

               (5)

               New data were submitted in support of the application for the authorisation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Trichoderma reesei (MULC 49755) and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced by Trichoderma reesei (MULC 49754) for laying hens and minor poultry species for fattening and laying. The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 23 May 2012 (4) that the use of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Trichoderma reesei (MULC 49755) and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced by Trichoderma reesei (MULC 49754) does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment, and that the use of that preparation can significantly increase egg mass and can improve feed to eggs mass ratio in laying hens and minor poultry species for laying and can improve the zootechnical parameters in minor poultry species 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.

               (6)

               The assessment of that preparation shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of this 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 the Food Chain and Animal Health,

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   Endo-1,4-beta-xylanase and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase as specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’ and to the functional group ‘digestibility enhancers’, are 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.

                  Classification

                  (3)

                  A product presented as small bites in the form of an arch, flavoured with cheese and composed of maize meal, vegetable oil, cheese powder (yeast extract, colorants), milk powder, salt, starch and dextrose.
                  The product is produced from dried, crushed maize (maize meal), which is moistened with water (6 % to 9 %). The water is added as a process agent. The mixture is forwarded into the extrusion machine under high pressure and heat. When the paste meets the atmospheric pressure it expands.
                  The extrusion process takes place at a temperature of 150 °C. After the extrusion the product is dried and slightly roasted at a temperature of 120-130 °C in an electrical drier. Then it is forwarded into a coating tumbler where it is coated with a mix of oil and dry goods.
                  The product is put up for retail sale in packings with a net weight of 34 g to 450 g.

                  1904 10 10

                  Classification is determined by the General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and the wording of CN codes 1904, 1904 10 and 1904 10 10.
                  As the product is obtained from maize paste extruded by pressure and heating, it is considered to have been obtained by swelling. Consequently, it is considered to be prepared foods obtained by the swelling or roasting of cereals or cereal products within the meaning of subheading 1904 10 (see also the Harmonized System Explanatory Notes (HSEN) to heading 1904, (A)).
                  Classification under heading 1905 is excluded as the product is neither made from dough nor further heated, (see also HSEN to heading 1904, (A), fifth paragraph).
                  The product is therefore to be classified under CN code 1904 10 10.

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 1113/2012
   of 23 November 2012
   amending Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (1), and in particular Article 9(1)(a) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               In the interest of legal certainty, it is necessary to clarify the scope of the Combined Nomenclature set out in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87, as regards subheading 2710 20 Petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals (other than crude) and preparations not elsewhere specified or included containing by weight 70 % or more of petroleum oils or oils obtained from bituminous minerals, these oils being the basic constituents of the preparations, containing biodiesel, other than waste oils.

               (2)

               According to Subheading Note 5 to Chapter 27, the term ‘biodiesel’ means mono-alkyl esters of fatty acids (FAMAE) of a kind used as a fuel, derived from animal or vegetable fats or oils whether or not used.

               (3)

               In order to permit classification of products under subheading 2710 20 it is necessary to define the value of the minimum content of biodiesel provided for in that subheading.

               (4)

               It is therefore appropriate to add a new paragraph to Additional Note 2 to Chapter 27 of the Combined Nomenclature which establishes the value of the minimum content of biodiesel at 0,5 % by volume (determination by EN 14078 method).

               (5)

               Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 should therefore be amended accordingly.

               (6)

               The Customs Code Committee has not issued an opinion within the time limit set by its Chairman,

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   In Part Two, Section V, Chapter 27, Additional Notes, of the Combined Nomenclature set out in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87, the following point (g) is inserted between ‘Such products fall in subheadings 2710 19 71 to 2710 19 99 or 2710 20 90’ and Additional Note 3:

               ‘(g)

               “containing biodiesel” means that the products of subheading 2710 20 have a minimum content of biodiesel, i.e. mono-alkyl esters of fatty acids (FAMAE) of a kind used as a fuel, of 0,5 % by volume (determination by EN 14078 method).’.

         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,

      (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 the preparation of thyme oil, synthetic star anise oil and quillaja bark powder as feed additive for chickens for fattening, chickens reared for laying, minor avian species for fattening and reared for laying. 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 the preparation of thyme oil, synthetic star anise oil and quillaja bark powder as a feed additive for chickens for fattening, chickens reared for laying, minor avian species for fattening and reared for laying to be classified in the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’.

                  (4)

                  The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 4 December 2015 (2) that, under the proposed conditions of use, the preparation of thyme oil, synthetic star anise oil and quillaja bark powder does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment. The Authority also concluded that it has the potential to improve the performance of chickens for fattening. According to the Authority, this conclusion can be extended to chickens reared for laying and extrapolated to all minor poultry species for fattening and reared for laying. 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 thyme oil, synthetic star anise oil and quillaja bark powder 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.

                  (6)

                  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 preparation 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.

      concerning the authorisation of the preparation of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (PTA-6507), Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (NRRL B-50013) and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (NRRL B-50104) as a feed additive for chickens for fattening, chickens reared for laying, minor poultry species for fattening and minor poultry species reared for laying (holder of authorisation Danisco (UK) Ltd, trading as Danisco Animal Nutrition)
      (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 the preparation of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (PTA-6507), Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (NRRL B-50013) and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (NRRL B-50104). 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 the preparation of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (PTA-6507), Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (NRRL B-50013) and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (NRRL B-50104) as a feed additive for chickens for fattening, chickens reared for laying, minor poultry species for fattening and minor poultry species reared for laying, to be classified in the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’.

                  (4)

                  The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 24 May 2016 (2) that, under the proposed conditions of use, the preparation of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (PTA-6507), Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (NRRL B-50013) and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (NRRL B-50104) does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment, and that it has a potential to improve performance in chickens for fattening. This conclusion can be extended to the additive when used for chickens reared for laying and can be extrapolated to minor avian species for fattening and minor avian species reared for laying. 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 Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (PTA-6507), Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (NRRL B-50013) and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (NRRL B-50104) 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.

                  (6)

                  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 preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’ and to the functional group ‘gut flora stabilisers’, 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.

   THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2580/2001 of 27 December 2001 on specific restrictive measures directed against certain persons and entities with a view to combating terrorism (1), and in particular Article 2(3) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               On 10 December 2012, the Council adopted Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1169/2012 (2) implementing Article 2(3) of Regulation (EC) No 2580/2001, establishing an updated list of persons, groups and entities to which Regulation (EC) No 2580/2001 applies.

               (2)

               The Council has provided all the persons, groups and entities for which it was practically possible with statements of reasons explaining why they were listed in Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1169/2012.

               (3)

               By way of a notice published in the Official Journal of the European Union, the Council informed the persons, groups and entities listed in Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1169/2012 that it had decided to keep them on the list. The Council also informed the persons, groups and entities concerned that it was possible to request a statement of the Council's reasons for putting them on the list where one had not already been communicated to them.

               (4)

               The Council has carried out a complete review of the list of persons, groups and entities to which Regulation (EC) No 2580/2001 applies, as required by Article 2(3) of that Regulation. When doing so it took account of observations submitted to the Council by those concerned.

               (5)

               The Council has concluded that the persons, groups and entities listed in the Annex to this Regulation have been involved in terrorist acts within the meaning of Article 1(2) and (3) of Council Common Position 2001/931/CFSP of 27 December 2001 on the application of specific measures to combat terrorism (3), that a decision has been taken with respect to them by a competent authority within the meaning of Article 1(4) of that Common Position, and that they should continue to be subject to the specific restrictive measures provided for in Regulation (EC) No 2580/2001.

               (6)

               The Council has further determined that an additional group has been involved in terrorist acts within the meaning of Article 1(2) and (3) of Common Position 2001/931/CFSP, that a decision has been taken with respect to that group by a competent authority within the meaning of Article 1(4) of that Common Position, and that it should be added to the list of persons, groups and entities to which Articles 2, 3 and 4 of Common Position 2001/931/CFSP apply. The decision to designate the group does not affect legitimate financial transfers to Lebanon and the delivery of assistance, including humanitarian assistance, from the European Union and its Member States in Lebanon.

               (7)

               The list of the persons, groups and entities to which Regulation (EC) No 2580/2001 applies should be updated accordingly, and Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1169/2012 should be repealed,

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   The list provided for in Article 2(3) of Regulation (EC) No 2580/2001 is replaced by the list set out in the Annex to this Regulation.

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 745/2011
   of 28 July 2011
   entering a name in the register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications (Karlovarské trojhránky (PGI))
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 510/2006 of 20 March 2006 on the protection of geographical indications and designations of origin for agricultural products and foodstuffs (1), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 7(5) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Pursuant to Article 6(2) and in accordance with Article 17(2) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006, the Czech Republic’s application of 19 October 2004 to register the name ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’ was published in the Official Journal of the European Union
                   (2).

               (2)

               Austria and Germany submitted objections to the registration pursuant to Article 7(1) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006. The objections were deemed admissible under points (a), (b), (c) and (d) of the first subparagraph of Article 7(3) of that Regulation.

               (3)

               By letters dated 6 May 2008, the Commission asked the Member States concerned to seek agreement among themselves in accordance with their internal procedures.

               (4)

               Given that no agreement was reached between Austria and the Czech Republic nor between Germany and the Czech Republic within the designated timeframe, the Commission must adopt a decision in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 15(2) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006.

               (5)

               Concerning the alleged failure of compliance with Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006 regarding an absence of production in the geographical area and the quality of its reputation, the national authorities responsible confirmed that production took place in the geographical zone. The link was based on the specific quality of the product attributable to the geographical area, namely the thermal spring water used in production, which is sufficient to meet the requirements of point (b) of Article 2(1); whether or not the product also had sufficient reputation to satisfy the requirements of Article 2(1) was immaterial.

               (6)

               The statements of objection from Germany showed that trade marks including the term ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’ had been registered prior to the application for registration of the term ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’ as a protected geographical indication. Evidence was further provided to show that consumers in Germany associated the name ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’ with a certain type of wafer. However no evidence was provided in the statements of objection that consumers strongly associated the wafers with all or any of the trade marks as distinct from the descriptive term ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’, nor that consumers would be liable to be misled as to the true identity of a product marketed under the name ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’. Therefore, the Commission cannot conclude that the registration of the name ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’ would be contrary to Article 3(4) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006.

               (7)

               As a salient part of the names ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’ and ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’ is identical, it is reasonable to conclude that the names are partly identical for the purposes of point (c) of Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006. Furthermore, given the similarities between the products and their common origins, the application of the protection envisaged by Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006, and in particular point (b) of paragraph (1) thereof, could have the result that ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’, if registered, would be found by a competent court to be protected against the use of ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’ on the wafers concerned. The evidence therefore shows that the continued existence of the name ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’ could be jeopardised by the registration of ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’ within the meaning of point (c) of Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006.

               (8)

               The statements of objection were declared admissible on the ground, inter alia, that registration of the proposed name would jeopardise the existence of a partly identical name, namely ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’, in so far that this name is used on product and not protected under trade mark legislation. The evidence further shows that the name ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’ originated from producers in the town formerly known as Karlsbad and that production of the wafer so named has continued for a considerable period of time. Moreover, the evidence shows that the uses of the name ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’ referred to an authentic and traditional product that was not exploiting the reputation of ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’. For these reasons the maximum transitional period foreseen by Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006 should be foreseen.

               (9)

               Concerning trade marks containing the term ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’ that were protected through registration or acquired by use prior to the application for registration of ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’, the conditions of Article 14(1) not being met, the said trade marks cannot be invalidated nor can their continued use be hindered by virtue of the registration of ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’ as a protected geographical indication, provided the general requirements under trade mark legislation are otherwise met.

               (10)

               Concerning generic status, the evidence provided in the statements of objection referred to the general use of the term ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’ and not to that of ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’. While the objections have provided evidence to show that a number of uses as general descriptive terms exist including the German mention ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’, no evidence has been provided that the name ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’ is used to designate a category of products that do not originate in the region of Karlovy Vary. The objection does not take into consideration the situation in the Czech Republic. Therefore, on the basis of information provided the name ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’ cannot be considered to be generic and there is no failure of compliance with Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006.

               (11)

               In the light of the above, the name ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’ should be entered in the Register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications subject to a transitional period of 5 years during which time the term ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’ may continue to be used in circumstances that, but for the transitional period, could be contrary to the protection provided for by Article 13(1) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006.

               (12)

               The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Protected Geographical Indications and Protected Designations of Origin,

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   The designation contained in the Annex to this Regulation shall be entered in the register.
   Article 2
   1.   The term ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’ may be used to designate wafers not complying with the specification for ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’ for a period of 5 years from the date of entry into force of this Regulation.
   2.   Trade marks containing the term ‘Karlsbader Oblaten’ that were protected through registration or acquired by use prior to 19 October 2004, shall not be invalidated nor shall their continued use be hindered by virtue of the registration of ‘Karlovarské trojhránky’ as a protected geographical indication, provided the general requirements under trade mark legislation are otherwise met.
   Article 3
   This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following 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 865/2012
   of 21 September 2012
   amending Regulation (EC) No 867/2008 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 as regards operators’ organisations in the olive sector, their work programmes and the financing thereof
   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), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 103(2) in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Article 11 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 867/2008 (2) provides that the operators’ organisations in the olive sector may receive, subject to the lodging of a security, an advance of a maximum of 90 % of the eligible annual expenditure. To this end, the Member State pays an initial instalment before the end of the month following the month of the beginning of the implementation of each year of the work programme.

               (2)

               However, because of the economic crisis, this provision, which is intended to allow work to start quickly, has not had the desired effect in Greece. In fact, in the wake of the crisis, some operators’ organisations, having been unable to lodge the security referred to in Article 11(4) of Regulation (EC) No 867/2008, were not eligible to receive the advance referred to in paragraph 2 of that Article, and thus could not launch their programmes for the 2012-15 period.

               (3)

               Under these circumstances, this Member State must be given exceptional permission to pay the initial instalment of the advance referred to in the first subparagraph of Article 11(2) of Regulation (EC) No 867/2008 until 30 September 2012, which would allow the beneficiaries to reuse the securities lodged for the previous work programmes and released in the meantime, provided that all the relevant conditions are met.

               (4)

               Regulation (EC) No 867/2008 should be amended accordingly.

               (5)

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

               (6)

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

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   The following subparagraph is added to Article 11(2) of Regulation (EC) No 867/2008:

      ‘By way of derogation from the first subparagraph and for the first year of implementation of the work programmes approved for the 2012-15 period, Greece may pay the operators’ organisations concerned, before 30 September 2012, an initial instalment equal to half the amount referred to in paragraph 1.’.

   Article 2
   This Regulation shall enter into force on the 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.

   Whereas:

               (1)

               Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 881/2002 lists the persons, groups and entities covered by the freezing of funds and economic resources under that Regulation.

               (2)

               On 14 February 2014, the Sanctions Committee of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) decided to amend one entry on the list of persons, groups and entities to whom the freezing of funds and economic resources should apply. Furthermore, on 14 March 2014 the Sanctions Committee of the UNSC decided to delete one natural person from the list of persons, groups and entities to whom the freezing of funds and economic resources should apply and to add one natural person to that list.

               (3)

               Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 881/2002 should therefore be updated accordingly.

                     SALEH ISSA GWAIDER, Agila

                     d.o.b. 1 June 1942
                     Place of birth: Elgubba, Libya
                     Passport D001001 (Libya) issued 22 January 2015

                     Agila Saleh has been President of the Libyan Council of Deputies in the House of Representatives since 5 August 2014.
                     On 17 December 2015 Saleh stated his opposition to the Libya Political Agreement signed on 17 December 2015.
                     As President of the Council of Deputies Saleh has obstructed and undermined the Libyan political transition, including by refusing to hold a vote in the House of Representatives on 23 February 2016 on the Government of National Accord (“GNA”).
                     On 23 February 2016 Saleh decided to create a committee which is expected to meet other members of the “Libyan-Libyan process” which is opposed to the Libya Political Agreement.

                     a.k.a. AL GHWEIL, Khalifa
                     AL-GHAWAIL, Khalifa

                     d.o.b. 1 January 1956
                     Place of birth Misurata, Libya
                     Nationality: Libya
                     Passport: A005465 (Libya), issued 12 April 2015, expires 11 April 2017

                     Khalifa Ghwell is the so-called “Prime Minister and Defence Minister” of the internationally unrecognised General National Congress (“GNC”) (also known as the “National Salvation Government”), and as such is responsible for their activities.
                     On 7 July 2015 Khalifa Ghwell showed his support for the Steadfastness Front (Alsomood), a new military force of seven brigades to prevent a unity government from forming in Tripoli, by attending the signing ceremony to inaugurate the force with GNC “President” Nuri Abu Sahmain.
                     As GNC “Prime Minister” Ghwell has played a central role in obstructing the establishment of the GNA established under the Libya Political Agreement.
                     On 15 January 2016, in his capacity as the Tripoli GNC's “Prime Minister and Minister of Defence”, Ghwell ordered the arrest of any members of the new Security Team, appointed by the prime minister designate of the Government of National Accord, who set foot in Tripoli.
