Therefore, the Commission considers that appropriate protective measures should be taken to prevent adverse effects on human health, in particular as regards the users of the additive. It also concluded that the additive is efficacious for chickens reared for laying, chickens reared for breeding, chickens for breeding, turkeys and minor avian species reared for laying/breeding and for breeding, and for suckling piglets and minor porcine species for breeding and for fattening and all crustaceans.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

‘PART III.14
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION SHEET FOR STATE AID TO THE FISHERY AND AQUACULTURE SECTOR
This supplementary information sheet must be used in the case of the notification of an aid measure which is covered by the Guidelines for the Examination of State Aid to the Fishery and Aquaculture Sector ( 1 ) (“the Guidelines”) .
1. Common assessment principles
1.1. Does the aid measure satisfy the following common assessment principles? If yes, or if the aid measure is not required to satisfy the principle of incentive effect set out in Section 3.6 of the Guidelines, please tick the appropriate box:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐</p></td><td><p>the aid measure contributes to a well-defined objective of common interest;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐</p></td><td><p>need for State intervention: the State aid measure is targeted towards a situation where aid can bring about a material improvement that the market cannot deliver itself, for example, by remedying a market failure;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐</p></td><td><p>appropriateness of the aid measure: the aid measure is an appropriate policy instrument to address the objective of common interest;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐</p></td><td><p>incentive effect: the aid changes the behaviour of the undertaking(s) concerned in such a way that it engages in additional activity which it would not carry out without the aid or it would carry out in a restricted or different manner or location; or the aid is not required to have an incentive effect under point (52) of the Guidelines;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐</p></td><td><p>proportionality of the aid (aid limited to the minimum necessary): the aid amount is limited to the minimum needed to induce the additional investment or activity in the area concerned;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐</p></td><td><p>avoidance of undue negative effects on competition and trade between Member States: the negative effects of the aid are sufficiently limited, so that the overall balance of the measure is positive;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐</p></td><td><p>transparency of the aid: Member States, the Commission, economic operators, and the public have easy access to all relevant acts and to pertinent information about the aid awarded thereunder.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
1.2. Does the aid measure or any condition attached to it, including its financing method when that method constitutes a non-severable part of the measure, entail a violation of Union law?
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐ Yes</p></td><td><p>☐ No</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
1.3. Is the aid for export-related activities towards third countries or Member States, namely aid directly linked to the quantities exported, to the establishment and operation of a distribution network, or to other costs linked to the export activity or is the aid contingent upon the use of domestic over imported goods?
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐ Yes</p></td><td><p>☐ No</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
Please note that, if the answer to the questions set out in points 1.2 and 1.3 is yes, the aid is incompatible with the internal market, as set out in points (26) and (27) of the Guidelines.
1.4. Is the aid granted to an undertaking which is subject to an outstanding recovery order following a previous Commission decision declaring an aid illegal and incompatible with the internal market?
Please note that this does not apply to aid to make good the damage caused by natural disasters under Article 107(2)(b) of the Treaty.
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐ Yes</p></td><td><p>☐ No</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
If the answer is yes, please indicate the relevant Commission decision:

5.5. Where the aid is granted in forms that provide a direct pecuniary advantage (for example, direct grants, exemptions or reductions in taxes, social security or other compulsory charges), please demonstrate why other potentially less distortive forms of aid such as repayable advances or forms of aid that are based on debt or equity instruments (for example, low-interest loans or interest rebates, state guarantees, or an alternative provision of capital on favourable terms) are less appropriate:
6. Incentive effect
6.1. Is the aid compensatory in nature, such as aid that falls under Section 4, 5.3 or 5.4, and does it fulfil the specific conditions set out in the relevant Section, or does the aid fall under Section 5.6 of the Guidelines and meet the conditions set out in that Section?
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐ Yes</p></td><td><p>☐ No</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
If the answer is yes, please note that the aid is not required to have an incentive effect and disregard Sections 6.2 to 6.6.

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐ Yes</p></td><td><p>☐ No</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
If the answer is yes, please note that under point (51) of the Guidelines the aid cannot be considered to have an incentive effect.
6.5. Is the aid operating aid ( 4 ) or aid intended to facilitate the achievement of obligatory standards?
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐ Yes</p></td><td><p>☐ No</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
If the answer is yes, please note that under point (50) of the Guidelines such aid is in principle incompatible with the internal market, unless exceptions are expressly provided for in Union legislation or in the Guidelines or in duly justified other cases.
If the answer is yes, please mention the provisions which expressly authorise such aid or provide detailed justification for such aid:
6.6. If the aid is in the form of tax advantages, does the aid measure establish a right to the aid in accordance with objective criteria and without further exercise of discretion by the Member State?
Please note that the latter requirement does not apply in the case of fiscal successor schemes, if the measure was already covered by the previous schemes in the form of tax advantages.
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐ Yes</p></td><td><p>☐ No</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
7. Proportionality of aid
7.1. Is the aid compensatory in nature, such as aid that falls under Section 4, 5.3 or 5.4, and does it fulfil the specific conditions set out in the relevant Section, or does the aid fall under Section 5.6 of the Guidelines and meet the conditions set out in that Section?
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐ Yes</p></td><td><p>☐ No</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
If the answer is yes, please note that the aid is deemed to be proportionate and disregard points 7.2 to 7.4.
7.2. Please demonstrate whether and how the aid amount corresponds to the net extra costs of implementing the investment in the area concerned, compared to the counterfactual in the absence of aid:
7.3. If the aid measure is of the same kind as an operation that is eligible for funding under Regulation (EU) No 508/2014, does the amount of aid exceed the applicable maximum intensity of public aid set out in Article 95 of and Annex I to that Regulation?
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐ Yes</p></td><td><p>☐ No</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
If the answer is yes, please demonstrate the justification for and the indispensability of the aid:

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>☐ Yes</p></td><td><p>☐ No</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
If the answer is yes, please note that the Commission considers that the negative effects on competition and trade are limited to the minimum and disregard Sections 8.2 and 8.3.
8.2. Please demonstrate how the negative effects of the aid measure in terms of distortions of competition and impact on trade between Member States are limited to the minimum and outweighed by the positive effects in terms of its contribution to achieving the objective of common interest. In the case of an aid scheme, please take into account the levels of distortions on a cumulative basis rather than on an individual level only as well as the size of the projects concerned, the individual and cumulative aid amounts, the expected beneficiaries, as well as the characteristics of the targeted sector. In the case of individual aid, please address the negative effects linked to the prevention of exit from the market and substantial market power and provide evidence permitting the identification of the relevant product market, the geographical market, the competitors, as well as the customers and consumers concerned:

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE ALLEGED AID MEASURES
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>This section describes the contracting parties (i.e. Hidroelectrica and alleged beneficiaries), as well as the electricity sale contracts, in the context of the Romanian electricity market.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.1. The contracting parties
2.1.1. Hidroelectrica
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(12)</p></td><td><p>Hidroelectrica was established in 2000, when the Romanian Government created four independent wholly State-owned companies. Hidroelectrica is governed by ordinary company law. Its share capital is held by the Romanian State through the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Trade (80,056 %) and the complainant (19,943 %). The Romanian State is represented in the general meetings of shareholders and appoints members of Hidroelectrica's Board of Directors. In fact, the members of Hidroelectrica's Board of Directors can combine this function with government posts<a> (<span>8</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(13)</p></td><td><p>Hidroelectrica is Romania's main electricity producer with an annual production capacity of around 17,5 TWh in a normal hydrological year. Hidroelectrica produces electricity through dams and run-of-the river generation plants. However, this production is subject to wide variations depending on hydrological conditions: in 2004, Hidroelectrica's output was 17,6 TWh whereas in 2009 it was 16,4 TWh and in 2010, 21,3 TWh. In 2013, Hidroelectrica's market share was 28,24 %, ahead of Complexul Energetic Oltenia, a thermo-coal based electricity producer, with a 20,83 % market share and Nuclearelectrica with a 20,65 % market share. Both Complexul Energetic Oltenia and Nuclearelectrica are State-owned companies.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(14)</p></td><td><p>The cost structure of Hidroelectrica is characterised by high fixed costs (relating to the amortisation of power dams and of civil works and to regular maintenance) and low variable productions costs. Hydroelectricity often has lower marginal costs than other electricity sources, in particular fossil fuels. This cost structure stems from the fact that the production of electricity based on hydropower does not typically have significant fuel costs or marginal costs<a> (<span>9</span>)</a>. It follows that policies for sales and the full recovery of costs above marginal costs of production across the range of output sold by hydropower producers are largely determined individually by each producer. Beyond the basic rule that full costs should be recovered in the long term for hydro power (or other power) generation, there are no prescriptive or normative economic rules for optimal price determination based solely on the costs for specific segments of buyers in the short to medium term. This rules out, for instance, all kWh sold necessarily having to have the same contribution to full recovery of fixed costs, irrespective of the output sold to each buyer. However, due to its dependency on the level of hydrology and its inability to adjust its fixed cost base, Hidroelectrica is, generally speaking, exposed in the long run to a degree of risk due to uncontrollable volatility of its output and, consequently, of its revenues. Hidroelectrica thus requires a stable output for its production in the long term in order to yield stable and predictable revenues.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(15)</p></td><td><p>By 2005, when most of the contracts under investigation were signed, Hidroelectrica's strategy involved modernising and building new hydro facilities with a capacity of 1,6 GW. The total investment was estimated at EUR 5,9 billion in the period 2005-2025. The modernisation programme required EUR 800 million of external financing.</p><p>Hidroelectrica began insolvency proceedings on 26 June 2012<a> (<span>10</span>)</a>, and these ended on 26 June 2013<a> (<span>11</span>)</a>. As of 25 February 2014, Hidroelectrica again began insolvency proceedings. According to the Insolvency Report drawn up by the receiver, Hidroelectrica's insolvency was triggered by several factors, namely the obligation to sell a sizeable part of its production on the regulated market at prices below production cost, the obligation to buy large quantities of electricity from more expensive State-owned Romanian electricity producers (quantities that were then re-sold at lower prices), the portfolio of sale contracts, over-investment, bad management and inflated labour costs — all of which led to Hidroelectrica's not being able to pay its debts to its creditors<a> (<span>12</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.1.2. The alleged beneficiaries

The market for directly negotiated contracts:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(34)</p></td><td><p>The market for directly negotiated contracts is a free market which is not regulated by ANRE.

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(35)</p></td><td><p>By letter dated 21 February 2014, the Commission asked the Romanian authorities to provide it with data and information about contracts concluded on the Romanian market other than the contracts that are the subject of this Decision and with comparable durations and quantities of electricity supply. The Commission's request covered all Romanian electricity suppliers, whether state- or privately owned. On 14 May 2014, the Romanian authorities provided the requested data on all long-term contracts that had been signed by electricity buyers with an annual electricity consumption of more than 150 GWh and that were in force at a point in time between 2007 and 2013<a> (<span>33</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(36)</p></td><td><p>In particular, relevant data from 96 contracts in force between 2007 and 2013 were submitted by the Romanian authorities. The Romanian authorities underlined the fact that all the contracts concluded by non-household consumers on the retail market under competitive conditions in the relevant period of time were subject to the ad hoc data collection requested by the Commission. On the supply side, the contracts were entered into by virtually all significant suppliers active on the Romanian market, whether producers in the nuclear power or fossil fuel sectors or traders having purchased wholesale for retail resale. On the demand side, the data reported covers contracts of major, relatively energy-intensive industries, such as the steel, chemicals, cement, car manufacturing and petrol & gas and coal & lignite extraction industries<a> (<span>34</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(37)</p></td><td><p>The buyers concerned entered into bespoke long-term contracts on the basis of bilateral negotiations with other suppliers for durations and quantities similar, on average, to those for Hidroelectrica's contracts under scrutiny. As for Hidroelectrica contracts, the data reported show prices varying each year. On average for the period 2007-2010, these long-term contracts not covered by the proceedings represented 11,1 TWh of electricity, whereas Hidroelectrica's sale contracts under scrutiny represented 10,5 TWh. In relative terms, the latter Hidroelectrica contracts represented 35 % of the volume of electricity subject to directly negotiated contracts in 2007 whereas the other contracts covered approximately 41 % of the volume of electricity subject to directly negotiated contracts. The remainder (around 24 %) concerned contracts for lower quantities. Therefore, the relevant data from all the contracts fulfilling the Commission's required criteria of comparable periods and quantities reveal, by and large, a quantity similar to that for the total quantity supplied by Hidroelectrica under the contracts that are the subject of the proceedings.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(38)</p></td><td><p>The Commission does not possess information that would indicate that the conclusion of the contracts covered by the data supplied by Romania stemmed from non-market-compliant commercial behaviour or would have been affected by regulatory requirements. Likewise, for purposes of comparison with the Hidroelectrica contracts under scrutiny, Romania stressed that retail supply contracts based on wholesale supply by Hidroelectrica to parties subject to the investigation (electricity traders) had been excluded from the analysis. Accordingly, the contracts in the dataset can be deemed to represent market conditions agreed between willing buyers and willing sellers.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
3. GROUNDS FOR INITIATING THE FORMAL INVESTIGATION PROCEDURE
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(39)</p></td><td><p>In the opening decisions, the Commission expressed doubts as to whether the prices for the supply of electricity under the contracts were market-compliant and did not constitute State aid.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(40)</p></td><td><p>The Commission compared the prices stipulated in the contracts with the electricity traders, Electrocarbon and Elsid with the prices at which electricity was traded on OPCOM-PCCB and noticed that the prices at which Hidroelectrica sold electricity to the alleged beneficiaries were between 10 % and 70 % lower than the average prices on OPCOM-PCCB throughout the period 2007-2010.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(41)</p></td><td><p>In the case of the contract with Alro, the Commission took the preliminary view that Alro derived an undue advantage in the form of reduced, preferential electricity prices over the period 1 January 2007 to 31 December 2009 and from 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2011 respectively, based on the formulae for price indexation applicable in each period.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(42)</p></td><td><p>In case of the two contracts with ArcelorMittal, the Commission took the preliminary view that, by concluding the 2009 and 2010 contracts for deliveries of electricity in 2010 and 2011, Hidroelectrica had sold electricity at prices below what could have been obtained either: (i) by accepting one of the parallel ‘buy’ offers available on OPCOM at the time for higher prices; or (ii) by placing its own sale offer on OPCOM for a price probably higher than that paid by ArcelorMittal. In the preliminary view of the Commission, the prices agreed could have constituted an undue advantage for ArcelorMittal.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(43)</p></td><td><p>The Commission reached the preliminary conclusion that the electricity tariffs under examination were selective in nature, since they applied only to certain undertakings. In so far as these undertakings were active on electricity and industrial markets open to competition on which trade between Member States took place, the Commission held that any possible economic advantage for the beneficiaries would be liable to distort competition and affect trade between Member States.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(44)</p></td><td><p>Furthermore, the Commission reached the preliminary conclusion that the preferential electricity tariffs could involve a transfer of State resources that would be imputable to the State, since Hidroelectrica was controlled by the Romanian State (80,06 % of its share capital was held by Romania). In addition, the Commission referred to Ministerial Order No 445/2009, through which the representatives of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Business Environment and members of the boards of directors of the State-owned electricity companies were obliged to ensure that, as of 31 March 2010, the portion of electricity intended for the wholesale market should be traded exclusively on OPCOM. Consequently, the representatives of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Business Environment could be deemed to have had control, or at least influence, over the contracting practices of State-owned companies, including those of Hidroelectrica.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(45)</p></td><td><p>Should these contracts have involved State aid, they would have been considered aid granted in breach of the notification and stand-still obligations laid down in Article 108(3) TFEU. The Commission also expressed doubt as to whether such aid would be compatible with the TFEU.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(46)</p></td><td><p>In the light of the above, the Commission reached the preliminary conclusion that the preferential electricity tariffs could potentially involve State aid and it invited Romania to provide sufficient information to alleviate its doubts.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
4. ROMANIA'S COMMENTS

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(49)</p></td><td><p>In relation to the contracts with the electricity traders, the Romanian authorities did not provide substantial arguments. They argued that some of the contracts might have involved State aid (those with Alpiq RomEnergie, Alpiq RomIndustries, EFT, Energy Holding and Euro-Pec), abstained from expressing any views on certain contracts (those with Electrica and Luxten-Lighting) and claimed that there was no aid involved in one of the contracts (that with Electromagnetica). The Romanian authorities did not provide detailed explanations in support of their observations.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(50)</p></td><td><p>As regards the possibility of terminating the contracts individually (and particularly those with the electricity traders), the Romanian authorities explained that, in Romanian commercial practice, any party to a contract could have terminated the contract, incurring the risk of having to pay damages as determined by the competent court. Bearing in mind the characteristics of the contracts in question, the Romanian authorities made it clear that such damages would have been unusually high. Furthermore, the party requesting termination of the contract could also have faced the additional risk of being required by the competent court, through the so-called ‘Presidential Order’, to fulfil the contract until the dispute was settled, as happened in the cases of Electrocarbon and Elsid.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(51)</p></td><td><p>In addition, the Romanian authorities made it clear that the main difference between, on the one hand, the contracts concluded by Hidroelectrica with industrial consumers and, on the other hand, the contracts concluded by Hidroelectrica with the electricity traders consisted in the additional costs required to be paid under the contracts with the industrial consumers (i.e.: the payment of the ‘T’ component of the transport fee, system services charge, distribution fee and charges for imbalances).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

5.1.1. Commission's lack of competence to assess the contracts and their subsequent addenda
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(56)</p></td><td><p>The interested parties argue that the Commission does not have competence to review alleged State aid measures implemented before Romania's accession to the European Union (‘EU’) in 2007. The same applies, in their view, to the addenda to the contracts that were signed after 2007, because the addenda were not severable from the initial contracts. The addenda were simply implementing contractual rules for future supplies, originally determined under the contracts.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(57)</p></td><td><p>According to the interested parties, the alleged State aid measures stemming from the contracts were not applicable after Romania's accession to the EU since the contracts were concluded prior to 2007; also the first addenda establishing the exact parameters of the price indexation<a> (<span>37</span>)</a> system were signed prior to 2007.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(58)</p></td><td><p>Furthermore, in the opinion of the interested parties, even if it were proven that the contracts contained State aid, this would have to be regarded as existing, not new, aid, considering that all the conditions for granting existing State aid were met in accordance with Council Regulation (EC) No 659/1999<a> (<span>38</span>)</a>. In particular: the alleged State aid measure did not meet the conditions for being classified as State aid when it was put into effect; it became State aid only later and due to changes in the market environment; and, finally, the alleged State aid measure was not substantially altered after it was put into effect. Consequently, the interested parties claimed that the Commission cannot investigate the alleged State aid measure under the regime for new State aid and cannot request the Member State to recover the aid retroactively.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(59)</p></td><td><p>The interested parties also argued that, according to the case-law, the relevant time for assessing any transaction with regard to the market vendor/market operator test was the time when the transaction was concluded. Therefore, for transactions concluded before 2007, the question would have been whether they would have constituted State aid if the State aid rules had been applicable at the time when they were concluded. The same principle was also applicable to the time when the economic advantage had to be assessed, i.e.: the moment when the contracts were concluded. The interested parties argued in particular that, in Romania<a> (<span>39</span>)</a>, there were no legal or economic changes on the electricity market to justify taking 2007 as the reference point for assessing the economic advantage: the Romanian energy markets were already emerging before 2004; the Romanian wholesale market was opened in September 2000.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(82)</p></td><td><p>One of Alro's competitors argued that both power exchange market prices and spot-market prices were irrelevant as a price benchmark for electricity supply contracts for aluminium smelters. According to Alro's competitor, aluminium smelters need to rely mainly on long-term and relatively predictable electricity supply contracts in order not to have to suspend operations because of unsustainably high electricity costs and in order to avoid any potential risk of their having to shut down because of electricity prices and the generator's profits.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(83)</p></td><td><p>Alro's competitor also argued that by comparing the tariffs under the long-term electricity supply contracts with electricity prices on the power exchange and/or on spot markets and/or with other industries' tariffs, the market reality could have been distorted and a bad precedent set, entailing a significant risk not only for Alro and/or its competitors but also for the entire European market.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(84)</p></td><td><p>In addition, Alro's competitor argued that the impact on competition should have been assessed by reference to the prices paid by aluminium smelters for their electricity at global, or at least European, level. Since electricity costs represented more than one third of the total costs of aluminium production and considering that aluminium producers bought electricity on the national market and afterwards engaged in competition worldwide, a relevant assessment would have required an assessment based on electricity prices paid by aluminium producers all over the world. Consequently, Alro's competitor claimed that, for a proper assessment of a potential distortion of competition, the Commission should have verified whether the alleged State aid had actually reduced Alro's production costs to below those of its competitors and, therefore, conferred on Alro an advantage, given the tariffs of its European and/or global competitors.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(85)</p></td><td><p>Furthermore, Alro's competitor argued that, in the absence of relevant information for defining a comparable ‘market price’, ‘benchmarking prices to costs and a reasonable profit margin could have been acceptable as a legitimate pricing methodology’. The same logic might have been applied ‘to a decision to offer prices indexed on the basis of LME prices’. It also claimed that aluminium smelters' unique characteristics and client profile might objectively justify an electricity price below power exchange prices, cost-based pricing and LME-indexed pricing.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

In particular, the Romanian authorities maintained its view, expressed in July 2012, with regard to the contracts concluded by Hidroelectrica with the electricity traders and explained that those contracts were not typically robust and long-term contracts for at least two reasons: (i) the buyer was able unilaterally to terminate any of the contracts with 30 days' notice without having to pay adequate compensation, while Hidroelectrica was not able to do so; and (ii) the hourly output deliverables to the buyer could be, and were, variable at the buyers' discretion.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(90)</p></td><td><p>In relation to the contracts with Electrocarbon and Elsid, the Romanian authorities abstained from expressing any views.

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(91)</p></td><td><p>The Romanian authorities provided well-substantiated and detailed comments on the observations made by Alro and ArcelorMittal in support of their conclusion that their contracts did not entail State aid. In particular, the Romanian authorities explained that the State had not given any instructions to its representatives on Hidroelectrica's board of directors and that Romanian company law obliges board members to act in the interests of the company, and not in the interests of the shareholders who appointed them.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(92)</p></td><td><p>The Romanian authorities claimed that Alro was served from Hidroelectrica's own production and that, therefore, profitability had to be measured only by reference to Hidroelectrica's own production costs. The Romanian authorities also made it clear that ArcelorMittal is the second-largest consumer of electricity in Romania, after Alro, and they explained that the same was true of electricity as of any other product: the higher the volume purchased, the lower the contract price.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(93)</p></td><td><p>In addition, the Romanian authorities confirmed the observations made by ArcelorMittal, to the effect that, as reported by ANRE, the average price paid by industrial consumers with demand in the order of 150 000 MWh/year was only 11 RON/MWh higher than the price paid by ArcelorMittal in 2010. The authorities used the following arguments to explain this difference: (i) delivery in this linear profile provides the electricity supplier with the opportunity to optimise its productions costs; (ii) maintenance costs are significantly reduced; (iii) both the number and duration of accidental stoppages are reduced; and (iv) imbalances on the electricity market are significantly reduced, a factor also reflected in a reduction in electricity acquisition costs.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(95)</p></td><td><p>Furthermore, the Romanian authorities argued that, from a financial point of view, any rational electricity producer would have offered the aluminium producer a tariff better than the OPCOM-PCCB or spot market ones, given the aluminium producer's specific characteristics. They also explained that the price on the spot market would not have been a correct benchmark for a long-term contract concluded with an industrial consumer. The prices under bilateral contracts with advantageous payment conditions and covering large volumes of electricity in predictable band consumption had to be much lower than electricity prices on the spot market.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(97)</p></td><td><p>As regards the second argument invoked by the citizen, to the effect that the opportunity given to Alro to adjust prices on the basis of the LME formula discriminated against other participants in the electricity market, the Romanian authorities argued as follows: (i) this practice was allowed under Romanian legislation as long as Hidroelectrica made a profit out of the contract concerned; and (ii) the arrangement was a form of partnership between seller and buyer, who were sharing the profit from the sale of the aluminium.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
7. ASSESSMENT
7.1. Existence of State aid
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(98)</p></td><td><p>By virtue of Article 107(1) TFEU, any aid granted by a Member State or through State resources in any form whatsoever which distorts or threatens to distort competition by favouring certain undertakings or the production of certain goods shall, in so far as it affects trade between Member States, be incompatible with the internal market. In order to constitute State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) TFEU, the measure at issue must fulfil all these conditions.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(99)</p></td><td><p>It is therefore necessary to assess whether the contracts under investigation provided State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) TFEU to the buyers of electricity sold by Hidroelectrica, i.e. Alpiq RomEnergie, Alpiq RomIndustries, EFT, Electrica, Electromagnetica, Energy Holding, Euro-Pec, Luxten-Lighting, Alro, ArcelorMittal, Electrocarbon and Elsid after Romania's accession to the European Union.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(100)</p></td><td><p>This would be the case, among other conditions of application of Article 107(1) TFEU, only if the contracts at issue favoured certain buyers by affording them an economic advantage above normal market conditions and, if so, only if the advantage deriving from the contracts and their subsequent amendments can be attributed not only to resources of the Romanian State, but also to actions, instructions or decisive influence of the State, as opposed to independent commercial decisions of Hidroelectrica.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(101)</p></td><td><p>According to the decision in the case of Budapesti Erömü<a> (<span>51</span>)</a>, State aid measures put into effect before accession and still applicable after accession should be considered either existing aid or new aid following accession. In order to be considered existing aid, these measures should be listed expressly in the Act of Accession of a Member State to the European Union; in the present case by Annex V to the Treaty of Accession of Romania and Bulgaria to the European Union (‘Act of Accession’)<a> (<span>52</span>)</a>. The contracts were not listed explicitly in Annex V to the Act of Accession. Considering that the contracts were still applicable after the date of accession, they could be regarded only as new and, in the light of the quoted case-law, must therefore be assessed as from the date of accession (1 January 2007) in the light of the four conditions laid down in Article 107(1) TFEU.</p><p>Therefore, the Commission would have to evaluate the contracts as possible new aid measures as from the time of Romania's accession on 1 January 2007. That evaluation cannot be based on the circumstances obtaining on the market when the contracts were entered into (see recital 19), in particular for the purpose of deciding whether the contracts in question were in line with market prices when they were concluded. Such circumstances will not, therefore, be further assessed hereinafter.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
7.2. Assessment of possible economic advantage over market conditions
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(102)</p></td><td><p>In order to establish whether the prices and conditions at which Hidroelectrica supplied electricity to the alleged beneficiaries would not have been otherwise available on the Romanian market as from 2007, the Commission must first find an appropriate price benchmark that reflects a market price (i) available in a period of time when the contracts were in force after Romania's accession to the EU; and (ii) for the period of time for which the Commission initiated the formal procedure in relation to the contracts.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
7.2.1. Economic advantage over market conditions
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(103)</p></td><td><p>In assessing whether or not there was economic advantage, the Commission takes as its point of reference a market operator subject to the same or similar obligations as Hidroelectrica, having the same opportunities and faced with the same legal and economic conditions as those obtaining in Romania in the period examined, given the operator's constraints and commercial objectives<a> (<span>53</span>)</a>. If the presence of State aid is to be excluded, a publicly owned company must, when selling its products, behave as would a private operator in the market economy, seeking to maximise revenues or minimise losses. In other words, assessing the presence of a possible undue economic advantage in a commercial supply contract from a State-owned supplier involves assessing to what extent a non-State-owned supplier in a similar situation would have behaved in the same way.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(104)</p></td><td><p>Likewise, whereas price differences between electricity tariffs set by the State and higher free market prices might, on first examination, indicate the presence of State aid, it may, for objective reasons, still be possible to find that lower price levels in the contracts under investigation do not afford electricity buyers an economic advantage over market conditions<a> (<span>54</span>)</a>. Finally, in examining the possibility of State aid defined as electricity prices above market conditions on electricity markets under complex market settings, the Commission may lawfully rely on specific methods or economic models to determine to what extent contract prices differ from market prices<a> (<span>55</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(105)</p></td><td><p>In fact, the price for the contracts was either adjusted annually above the price set out in the contract or established annually for a number of contracts, except in the case of Alro, for which the actual annual price resulted from the application of the contractual indexation formulae.

— Contracts with electricity traders, electrode producers and Alro
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(106)</p></td><td><p>As described in recitals 24-35, the Commission examined several electricity market segments in Romania between 2007 and 2010. In order to compare like with like, it is appropriate to examine the closest and most adequate comparators for the prices provided for in the contracts in the period under examination.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(107)</p></td><td><p>In well-functioning electricity markets with adequate liquidity and instruments allowing the prices of future deliveries to be predicted, spot prices are a good indication or approximation of market prices and can be used as benchmarks for assessing price levels in specific contracts. However, in the present case, given the relatively high proportion of demand that, in Romania in 2007, was still being satisfied on the basis of regulated tariffs, the limited liquidity of OPCOM trading platforms in the period 2007-2010, the volumes of electricity subject to the contracts under investigation, the establishment of power exchanges managed by OPCOM as a relevant antitrust market on which abuse of dominant position was practised (recitals 30-31 and 34), and taking into account the comments made by third parties (recitals 60-63), it cannot be established on a prima facie basis that spot prices or prices on the OPCOM-PCCB platform can be deemed to constitute suitable benchmarks for assessing the possible presence of an economic advantage over market prices.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(108)</p></td><td><p>The Commission has therefore set aside its reliance on average OPCOM prices as benchmarks for comparing Hidroelectrica's contract prices, on which it had based the doubts raised in the relevant opening decisions about the presence of an economic advantage in the ten contracts with electricity traders and the two with electrode producers. The investigation has shown that trading on platforms like OPCOM, for shorter durations and on standard terms and whether on a ‘day-ahead’ or ‘one-year or less’ basis or with a view to providing ancillary or balancing services to the electricity network operator, cannot be viewed as a reasonable alternative to Hidroelectrica's bespoke contracts under scrutiny in the specific circumstances of the Romanian market in the period under consideration. The contracts concerned were negotiated directly to accommodate the specific supply needs of the buyer and the seller, with flexibility not available in other market segments. Therefore, in order to ascertain the presence of an economic advantage over market conditions, it is necessary also to examine the conditions obtaining on other market segments available in Romania in 2007 and thereafter, even if these were not identified in the opening decisions.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(109)</p></td><td><p>As regards the regulated market, on which Hidroelectrica effectively supplied approximately one fifth of its production at the time of the facts (recital 31), a comparison with the regulated prices charged yearly by Hidroelectrica based on eligible costs and a rate of return set by the electricity regulator ANRE shows that all the contract prices under scrutiny were constantly and significantly above the regulated prices between 2007 and 2010 (recital 26 and Annex 1). It was therefore economically rational for Hidroelectrica to continue supplying all alleged beneficiaries in the current proceedings as from 2007, as the contracts concerned were more lucrative than those supplied on the regulated markets. In any event, and drawing a comparison with the theoretical alternative of increasing the quantities supplied on the regulated market, Hidroelectrica could not at will switch its supplying of electricity from the contracts under scrutiny to the regulated market, since the quantities supplied on the regulated market were set<span>ex ante</span> by ANRE.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(110)</p></td><td><p>The same is true,<span>mutatis mutandis</span>, for trading conditions on the balancing and day ahead markets. Given the characteristics of Hidroelectrica's production, based partly on dispatchable electricity and low marginal costs, it is arguable that Hidroelectrica could have secured occasionally higher revenues by switching its supplying of electricity from the contracts under consideration to the day-ahead and balancing markets, focusing in particular on supplying electricity at peak times, when prices rise considerably. However, for various reasons, the market conditions and prices prevailing on those market segments cannot be considered representative of market conditions with which the contracts under examination can be compared in order to ascertain whether they conferred an economic advantage on the buyers.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(111)</p></td><td><p>Firstly, it is apparent that Hidroelectrica supplied electricity on these market segments too between 2007 and 2010, albeit to a limited extent — in the order of less than 10 % of its sales (recital 31). The relevant issue is whether such markets could have constituted a valid alternative for a rational operator acting in lieu of Hidroelectrica and determining the destination of 63 % of its sales — sales that Hidroelectrica made on the basis of bilateral contracts between 2007 and 2010.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(112)</p></td><td><p>Trading on those market segments involved distinct features that make it impossible to determine market conditions valid for the whole Romanian market or for Hidroelectrica's long-term contracts. Indeed, balancing or ancillary services are supplied by electricity producers to the transmission system operator on the basis of unpredictable demand and patterns of demand on the part of a single buyer. Day-ahead supply also implies prices and quantities unpredictable from one day to the next. In other words, the long-term contracts under examination, even leaving aside their contract provisions and assuming they could be segmented into a succession of annually revisable contracts, cannot be compared with a succession of 365 1-day contracts for the same period. None of these alternative market segments would offer the predictability and stability of revenue required by Hidroelectrica or match Hidroelectrica's production characteristics and investment plan (recitals 13-15).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(113)</p></td><td><p>Finally, and as a matter of fact, the total volumes traded each year from 2007 until 2010 between all Romanian suppliers and the relevant buyers on the day-ahead and balancing markets always altogether amounted to less than the annual volume supplied under the contracts under investigation (see recitals 30, 31 and 38). During that period, none of the market segments had the capacity and liquidity necessary for absorbing the volumes of sales made under the contracts under investigation. In other words, even on the unrealistic assumption that Hidroelectrica could have replaced all Romanian producers and sellers on one or both of those two markets segments, Hidroelectrica would still have needed to find additional buyers for the volumes in question. Accordingly, the terms and prices applied in those rather niche market segments, whatever they amount to, cannot be used as a reference for a significant and objective comparison with Hidroelectrica's prices under long-term contracts.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(114)</p></td><td><p>Given the essential characteristics of the contracts in terms of flexibility of supply, long duration and quantities contracted, and in the specific circumstances of the Romanian market in the period under investigation, the closest comparators available for determining the possible presence of an economic advantage over prevailing market conditions in Romania were the prices agreed by large consumers having concluded bespoke contracts negotiated directly in terms that were non-rigid and pre-established. It is therefore appropriate to analyse whether the contracts under scrutiny were in line with the prices of other sellers on the Romanian market for directly negotiated contracts. The dataset described in recitals 35-38 above covering the directly negotiated bilateral contracts in force that were contemporaneous with the contracts under investigation constitutes the most adequate basis available to the Commission in this case for comparing the contract prices charged to electricity traders, Alro, Electrocarbon and Elsid. Therefore, the Commission compared those prices with the prices resulting from the dataset referring to the period from 1 January 2007 to the end of 2010.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

In fact, both offers were withdrawn immediately after the buy offer on the part of ArcelorMittal was accepted by Hidroelectrica on 29 December 2010, which shows that the traders concerned did not count on selling those quantities to clients other than ArcelorMittal<a> (<span>57</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table>

— The Commission's econometric analysis of long-term contract prices
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(118)</p></td><td><p>In well-functioning electricity markets with adequate liquidity and instruments allowing the prices of future deliveries to be predicted, spot prices are a good indication or approximation of market prices and can be used as benchmarks for assessing price levels in specific contracts. However, in the present case, given the relatively high proportion of demand that, in Romania in 2009, was still being satisfied on the basis of regulated tariffs, the limited liquidity of OPCOM trading platforms in the period 2007-2010 and the fact that the power exchanges managed by OPCOM had been designated as a relevant antitrust market on which abuse of dominant position is practised, it is appropriate to rely on other suitable benchmarks for assessing the possible presence of an economic advantage over market prices.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(119)</p></td><td><p>Accordingly, the Commission used the dataset provided by the Romanian authorities, considering it the best available source of evidence to reflect the market conditions in Romania. The dataset contains information adequate to enable the Commission to analyse the conditions on the Romanian electricity market in the period of time under investigation, as shown in recitals 36 and 37. On the basis of the dataset, the Commission carried out an econometric analysis in order to estimate a price benchmark based on electricity supply contracts contemporaneous with the investigated Hidroelectrica contracts throughout the investigated period. The use of economic models to quantify possible advantages over market conditions is in line with precedent in complex market settings (recital 104), such as the one at issue in Romania as from 2007 (recitals 24-38 and 107). A full and detailed technical description of the econometric analysis and its results is provided in Annex II.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(120)</p></td><td><p>In order, in the absence of a definite reference for establishing the ‘market conditions’, to check whether the contracts had prices above market level, a benchmark of market prices was estimated as a proxy, under conservative assumptions, namely by taking account of important deviations downwards from the estimated market price. Based on this conservative approach, the Commission performed a comparison between the prices of Hidroelectrica's contracts and the annual benchmark market price between 2007 and 2010. The comparison was made on an annual basis because, in fact, the selling prices were modified each year<a> (<span>58</span>)</a>, despite the relevant provisions in the contracts.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(121)</p></td><td><p>The analysis shows that only three alleged beneficiaries benefited from prices lower than those within the range in which they could be considered in line with the benchmark market price:</p><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>in each year between 2007 and 2010, Electrocarbon and Elsid exhibit contract prices below the benchmark market price for the corresponding year,</p></td></tr></tbody></table><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>for Luxten-Lighting, this difference is higher than the benchmark price only in 2008 and 2009.</p></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(122)</p></td><td><p>The analysis shows that the prices applied by Hidroelectrica in nine of the contracts between 2007 and 2010, namely those with Alpiq RomIndustries, Alpiq RomEnergie, EFT, Electromagnetica, Energy Holding, Euro-Pec, Electrica, ArcelorMittal and Alro, were fully in line with the benchmark market price. In the case of the contract with Luxten-Lighting, the prices applied in 2007 and 2010 do not differ significantly from those for other directly negotiated contracts concluded on the Romanian market.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(123)</p></td><td><p>In view of the above, the Commission concludes that there was no undue economic advantage over market conditions granted under the contracts with Alpiq RomIndustries, Alpiq RomEnergie, EFT, Electromagnetica, Energy Holding, Euro-Pec, Electrica, ArcelorMittal and Alro for the entire period of time under investigation, as well as with Luxten-Lighting for the years 2007 and 2010.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(124)</p></td><td><p>At the same time, the empirical analysis identifies three contracts as having prices not in accordance with the benchmark price, namely the contract between Hidroelectrica and Luxten-Lighting for 2008 and 2009 and those with Electrocarbon and Elsid for 2007-2010.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(125)</p></td><td><p>In view of the above, Hidroelectrica's decision to maintain the three contracts with Elsid, Electrocarbon and Luxten-Lighting cannot be deemed to be that of a rational market operator, since the contracts with Luxten-Lighting for 2008 and 2009 and with Electrocarbon and Elsid for 2007-2010 appear to be below market conditions, under conservative assumptions (Annex II). Therefore, Hidroelectrica's contracts conferred an undue economic advantage on Luxten-Lighting for 2008-2009 and on Electrocarbon and Elsid for 2007-2010.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(126)</p></td><td><p>It follows that Hidroelectrica's contracts with Luxten-Lighting for 2008 and 2009 and with Electrocarbon and Elsid for 2007-2010 appear to have favoured the buyers by affording them an undue economic advantage above normal market conditions and, therefore, the possibility cannot be excluded of the contracts having involved State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) TFEU.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(127)</p></td><td><p>Therefore, in the light of the findings of the Commission's econometric analysis described in recital 120, it is necessary to analyse further whether one of the other cumulative conditions for the existence of State aid is fulfilled as regards Luxten-Lighting, Electrocarbon and Elsid.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
7.3. State resources and imputability to the State
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(128)</p></td><td><p>Considering that Hidroelectrica is 80 %-owned by the State and that a potential shortfall of sales revenues reduces the resources available to Romania in its capacity as shareholder, the Commission can conclude that revenues or shortfalls thereof from the sale of electricity under the three contracts with Luxten-Lighting for 2008-2009 and Electrocarbon and Elsid for 2007-2010 involve State resources within the meaning of Article 107(1) TFEU.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(129)</p></td><td><p>However, the same conclusion is not necessarily warranted as regards the imputability to the Romanian State of commercial decisions of Hidroelectrica in relation to prices and sales revenues accrued through the three contracts with Luxten-Lighting, Electrocarbon and Elsid after 1 January 2007. Indeed, the mere fact that the prices in application of the contracts under scrutiny were charged by Hidroelectrica, a public undertaking majority controlled by the Romanian State, is not sufficient reason to conclude that these decisions were imputable to the Romanian State.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(130)</p></td><td><p>In fact, all three contracts were in force on 1 January 2007 (recital 19, Annex I). The Commission is not competent to establish whether the conclusion of the three contracts in question in 2002 and 2004 and of any amendments in the period before Romania's accession to the EU were imputable to the Romanian State, or to assess the market circumstances in which the contracts were concluded or amended before the relevant date (recital 101). The decisions of Hidroelectrica that the Commission is competent to assess are therefore as follows:</p><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>an express or tacit decision to maintain in force after 1 January 2007 the sales contracts concluded before Romania's accession to the EU, and</p></td></tr></tbody></table><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>any decisions to substantially modify the contract conditions after Romania's accession to the EU, in particular decisions to amend contract prices.</p></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(131)</p></td><td><p>In that respect, even if the Romanian State had been in a position to control Hidroelectrica's policy and to exercise a dominant influence over its decisions, it cannot automatically be presumed that, in the matter of maintaining the contracts with Luxten-Lighting for the years 2008-2009 and with Electrocarbon and Elsid for the years 2007-2010, and amending the contract prices, it actually exercised that control.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(132)</p></td><td><p>Pursuant to the relevant case-law<a> (<span>59</span>)</a> it is necessary to examine both whether the Romanian authorities can be considered as having been involved, in one way or another, in maintaining the contracts in force and in modifying the contract prices, and the unlikelihood of their not having been involved in these decisions. To that effect, the imputability to the Romanian State of the decisions regarding the contracts under investigation may be inferred from a set of indicators arising from the circumstances, and from the context, in which Hidroelectrica supplied electricity to Luxten-Lighting for the years 2008-2009 and to Electrocarbon and Elsid after 2007.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(133)</p></td><td><p>In particular, and on the basis of the relevant case-law, maintaining the three ongoing contracts and introducing modifications to the contract prices after 2007 may be imputable to Romania (i) if Hidroelectrica could not have decided on these matters without taking account of the requirements of the public authorities; or (ii) if Hidroelectrica had to take account of directives issued by a governmental or an interministerial body. Likewise, regard must be also had to (iii) whether Hidroelectrica is integrated into the structures of the public administration; (iv) the nature of its activities and the exercise of the latter on the market in normal conditions of competition with private operators; (v) the legal status of Hidroelectrica (in the sense of its being subject to public law or ordinary company law); (vi) the intensity of the supervision exercised by the public authorities over its management; or (vii) any other indicator of either involvement by the public authorities in maintaining the contracts and modifying the contract prices, or the unlikelihood of their not being involved, having regard also to (viii) the compass of the decisions taken by Hidroelectrica, their content or the conditions which they contain<a> (<span>60</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(134)</p></td><td><p>Hidroelectrica is a company governed by ordinary company law and not integrated into the structures of the public administration. In fact, members of Hidroelectrica's board of directors can cumulate functions with government posts (recital 12). This could suggest that members of the board of directors were chosen mainly on the grounds of their closeness to the Government rather than on the basis of their business experience or competence. While there are indications that Hidroelectrica is obliged to take into account directives issued by a governmental or interministerial body, there are no indications that any such directives were issued for the purposes of maintaining in force the three contracts at issue and increasing the contract prices. In particular, there are no indications that Hidroelectrica's general meeting of shareholders or board of directors played any role in decisions related to (maintaining) commercial electricity supply contracts and/or to amending prices applied in application of those contracts (recital 12). As noted by several interested parties, according to Hidroelectrica's articles of incorporation and Romanian company law, the chief executive officer manages the company, represents it in its day-to-day business and independently takes decisions on matters other than those reserved for the general meeting of shareholders and the board of directors. The Romanian authorities stress that members of the board of directors must take decisions in the interest of the company.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(135)</p></td><td><p>Ministerial Order 445/2009, to which the Commission referred in the opening decisions (recital 44), had no effect on the terms and conditions of the three contracts at issue. Pursuant to Article 1(2) of this Order, ongoing bilateral contracts were generally exempted from the rule on the basis of which the representatives of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Business Environment and members of the boards of directors of the State-owned electricity companies were obliged to ensure that, as of 31 March 2010, the volume of electricity intended for the wholesale market should be traded exclusively on OPCOM. As noted in recital 101, the competence to examine the contracts at issue from the perspective of EU State aid rules started as from Romania's accession to the EU, that is to say 3 years before the time-limit set in Ministerial Order No 445/2009 and more than 2 years before the Order's adoption. It follows that no such rule existed when the contracts at issue became susceptible of review under EU rules. Furthermore, the retail contracts between Hidroelectrica and Elsid and, respectively, with Electrocarbon — in force before 31 March 2010 — would not have been involved, even if the measure had applied also to contracts that existed when the order came into force, since only (future) wholesale sales were of relevance.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(136)</p></td><td><p>Moreover, although Ministerial Order 445/2009 suggests a degree of influence on the part of the State on the commercial policy of State-owned electricity producers, its aim is mainly of a regulatory nature, namely to increase transparency of energy transactions on the wholesale market and to ensure greater volumes and liquidity on the trading platforms administered by OPCOM. This Ministerial Order applies to all State-owned producers, not only to Hidroelectrica. It cannot therefore be deduced from the terms and aims of Ministerial Order 445/2009 that the Romanian State exercised control over every transaction, contract or contract amendment regarding the supply of electricity by State-owned electricity producers, which account for the large majority of producers on the Romanian market, or, in particular, by Hidroelectrica. In other words, the Order does not make it plausible that the Romanian State was involved in the ordinary day-to-day commercial activity, sales contracts, amendments thereof, price negotiations, etc. in relation to the three contracts under examination.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(137)</p></td><td><p>Except for the supply of electricity on the regulated market (recitals 25-26) Hidroelectrica exercises its electricity supplying activities in open markets with non-captive buyers, in competition with other private or publicly owned suppliers. In particular, a significant volume of electricity well above the total amount of Hidroelectrica's supplies under all the contracts under investigation was traded through bilateral bespoke long-term contracts on the Romanian market, where many other suppliers compete (recitals 30 and 38). Hidroelectrica's contracts under scrutiny and, in particular, the three bespoke long-term contracts with Luxten-Lighting, Electrocarbon and Elsid, maintained after 1 January 2007, are, therefore, not abnormal or extraordinary, which would suggest a particular interest of the State in maintaining them.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(138)</p></td><td><p>Furthermore, the contracts with Electrocarbon and Elsid were maintained and renegotiated by Hidroelectrica's receiver after insolvency proceedings were begun in 2012, which provides an indication that these contracts were still of interest to Hidroelectrica's temporary new management, well after Romania's accession to the European Union in 2007 and well after the contracts were concluded and were amended, in particular with regard to prices. Likewise, Hidroelectrica requested increased prices above contract levels and gave notice to Electrocarbon and Elsid of the interruption of supplies in order to prompt them to accept further price increases in 2010 (recital 22), thus behaving like a revenue-maximising seller and not like a grantor of aid.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(139)</p></td><td><p>This is not to say that the Romanian State is not in the position of being involved with the commercial contracts of State-owned electricity suppliers in the interests of specific and major industrial buyers. For instance, before Romania's accession to the EU, an Internal Note dated 2 February 2006, signed by the State Secretary of the Economy and Trade Ministry and approved by the Prime Minister, proposed the implementation of special preferential treatment for the ten largest energy-intensive users in Romania (including aluminium or steel producers supplied by Hidroelectrica or Nuclearelectrica). As regards the contract with Arcelor-Mittal, in particular, Hidroelectrica's board of directors' decision No 13/2009 dated 16 December 2009 empowered Hidroelectrica's chief executive officer ‘to negotiate the ongoing sale-of-electricity contract in the best conditions for Hidroelectrica’. The board of directors did this by approving the main terms of the contracts of 2009 and 2010 with ArcelorMittal. Addendum No 17 in 2009 to the contract with Alro (inserting the LME formula in the calculation of the contract price) was also approved by Hidroelectrica's board of directors.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(140)</p></td><td><p>Likewise, a memorandum of 3 February 2011 from the two General Managers of Nuclearelectrica and CE Hunedoara, which, like Hidroelectrica, are State-owned, requested the approval of the Ministry of Economy and Trade for the conclusion of a wholesale sale of electricity contract between Nuclearelectrica as a seller and CE Hunedoara as a purchaser. This transaction needed a derogation from the provisions of Order 445/2009 requiring that any wholesale electricity transaction involving a State-owned enterprise should take place only on OPCOM. This derogation was requested in view of the fact that the electricity acquired would serve ‘the electricity needs of a number of industrial consumers of national importance in 2011’. This memorandum was fully endorsed by the Minister of Economy and Trade.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(141)</p></td><td><p>It follows that there is some indirect evidence that does not allow it to be completely ruled out that the Romanian State would have been involved in concluding, or making major amendments to, Hidroelectrica's contracts with big energy-intensive industrial buyers.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(142)</p></td><td><p>Moreover, the Commission has concluded that other purchase contracts into which Hidroelectrica entered with two other State-owned companies, Electrocentrale Deva and Termoelectrica, in 2008 and 2009, were imputable to the Romanian State. That conclusion was based mainly on direct evidence of the other two State-owned companies having sought approval of the contracts from the Minister responsible also for the State-owned Hidroelectrica as a means of (cross) financing their current operations and that of the State-owned mines which supplied them with coal, for social and other non-commercial reasons<a> (<span>61</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(143)</p></td><td><p>However, the considerations that may render plausible (or not exclude the possibility of) the Romanian State's being involved in a number of Hidroelectrica's contracts with big industrial buyers of national importance for the Romanian economy and with other State-owned sellers cannot be extrapolated from in such a way that all Hidroelectrica's commercial contracts and, in particular, those with Elsid, Electrocarbon and electricity traders are considered to be imputable to the Romanian State. Unlike Electrocentrale Deva and Termoelectrica, Elsid, Electrocarbon and the electricity traders were privately-owned and none of them can be held to be a big industrial buyer of national importance for the Romanian economy. In particular, the evidence available in the investigation does not point at any specific interest or involvement on the part of the Romanian State in prompting Hidroelectrica to conclude or, after Romania's accession, to maintain the contracts with Elsid, Electrocarbon and the electricity traders.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(144)</p></td><td><p>Moreover, as regards Elsid, Electrocarbon and Luxten-Lighting, which were specifically singled out in the previous Section 7.1, several facts make it implausible that the decision to maintain the contracts and amend the prices of the contracts with Luxten-Lighting for 2008-2009 and with Electrocarbon and Elsid for 2007-2010 could be attributed to the Romanian authorities.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(145)</p></td><td><p>In particular, the actual prices under the three contracts were constantly increased each year. Between 2007 and 2010, the prices charged to Elsid, Electrocarbon and Luxten-Lighting increased by 44,5 %, 44,5 % and 41,4 %, respectively. Price increases reduce the absolute value of the aid granted. These contract changes which reduce the putative amount of the alleged State aid, were always triggered by, and for the benefit of, Hidroelectrica. A strategy aimed at reducing the amount of aid granted to the beneficiaries seems to contradict the purpose of granting aid or, at least, to be too sophisticated to be plausible. Moreover, contrary to Alro and ArcelorMittal, Elsid, Electrocarbon and Luxten-Lighting cannot be deemed to be industrial consumers of national importance: by way of illustration, their annual consumption purchases from Hidroelectrica amounted to less than one tenth of those of Alro (Annex I). It is therefore unlikely that decisions reducing the amount of aid by considerably increasing the contract prices can be imputed not to a commercial decision of Hidroelectrica but to a decision of the Romanian State aimed at providing aid to the alleged beneficiaries.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(146)</p></td><td><p>The fact that it is unlikely that the State would be involved in subtly reducing the amount of aid is also apparent with respect to the contracts with Electrocarbon and Elsid. In particular, it is implausible that Hidroelectrica was acting under instructions from the State when requesting price increases above the contract prices in 2010, threatening to discontinue the electricity supply and arguing the matter in court (recital 22), for the requested price increases had the effect of reducing the putative amount of aid, and discontinued supplies could have jeopardised the productive activities of the buyers. This behaviour of not adhering to a contract price that purportedly provides aid, threatening to interrupt supplies and defending price increases in court is not behaviour typical of a grantor of aid, but is, rather, that of a revenue-maximising company defending its commercial interests and not concerned with following non-commercial goals, possibly under instructions received from the State.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(147)</p></td><td><p>As regards Luxten-Lighting, there is no obvious reason of public policy, such as low end-user prices, behind sales to a trader which can only sell retail at higher prices than if Hidroelectrica had sold the same electricity retail on its own. For instance, before being supplied retail by Hidroelectrica as from 2005, Alro purchased electricity from a trader, Energy Holding, that bought electricity wholesale from Hidroelectrica. It was rational behaviour for Alro to be supplied directly by Hidroelectrica, thus saving a trading margin, if its supplier was not adding value to Hidroelectrica's wholesale supply. In the same vein, it is rather implausible that the Romanian State should have prompted Hidroelectrica to maintain the contract with Luxten-Lighting in 2008 and 2009, for, if Luxten-Lighting did not add value to its retail sales to industrial users or other buyers, the latter would have obtained lower prices by contracting directly with Hidroelectrica. Furthermore, Luxten-Lighting unilaterally terminated its contract with Hidroelectrica in November 2011, before the Commission opened proceedings; this behaviour is not consistent with that of a beneficiary of State aid.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(148)</p></td><td><p>On the basis of all the above considerations, it is not established that the contracts with Luxten-Lighting for 2008-2009 and for Electrocarbon and Elsid for 2007-2010 are imputable to Romania.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(149)</p></td><td><p>As the essential element of imputability to Romania for the existence of State aid is not present in the three contracts with Luxten-Lighting for 2008-2009 and with Electrocarbon and Elsid for 2007-2010, it is not necessary to analyse whether the other cumulative conditions for the application of this provision, such as the potential effect on competition and trade between Member States, are met.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(150)</p></td><td><p>In the light of the above, the three contracts under scrutiny, with Luxten-Lighting for 2008-2009 and with Electrocarbon and Elsid for 2007-2010, do not constitute State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) TFEU.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

ANNEX II
ASSESSMENT OF THE ALLEGED ECONOMIC ADVANTAGE — ECONOMETRIC ANALYSIS
Rationale and description of the econometric analysis
The econometric analysis undertaken by the Commission is designed to create benchmark prices for contracts. These prices result from a regression analysis carried out on the features of the contracts in the dataset. As a first step, the regression analysis allows a benchmark price to be constructed on the basis of the characteristics of the contracts in the dataset (‘in-sample predictions’). As a second step, the results of the regression analysis are used to predict a benchmark price for the contracts investigated, taking into account the characteristics of the contracts (‘out-of-sample predictions’). In the regression analysis, the variation in prices among the contracts in the dataset is explained with reference to the following characteristics: quantity purchased, supplier identity and year dummies. The ‘contract duration’ and ‘buyer off-take profile’ variables are not included since they are not statistically significant.
The econometric analysis rests on the principle that there are a number of drivers of prices, such as quantities. It would be misleading to compare the prices across different contracts without considering these drivers. In particular, whereas the contracts in the dataset have certain characteristics in common with the contracts under investigation (bilateral negotiation, bespoke conditions, quantities above 150 GWh per year, etc.), no contract in the dataset has exactly the same quantities, or was concluded for the same duration and with the same entry into force, as the contracts under investigation — a factor that may justify price differences. For example, two contracts under investigation concern supplies of […] GWh/year (Alro 2007-2010) and […] GWh/year (Energy Holding 2007-2008). In the meantime, the contract with the highest quantity in the dataset out of the 114 price/contract data observed between 2007 and 2010 did not exceed 1 400 GWh/year. It is doubtful whether a mere comparison of prices for these contracts could allow any valid conclusion to be drawn as to whether the contracts under investigation were in line with market prices. Alternatively, it could be concluded that these two contracts could not simply be compared with other market contracts. The rationale of this quantitative exercise is therefore that, once a number of external factors are taken into account, the prices across different contracts can be better compared. In the absence of normalisation, only perfectly identical contracts could be compared meaningfully.
It should be noted that this empirical exercise is not aimed at estimating a causal relationship between prices and certain external factors. For example, estimating a causal relationship between certain factors and prices would require the risk of endogeneity to be taken into consideration: that is, the risk that a causal variable (e.g. the quantities) might itself be influenced by the explained variable (e.g. the price), due to omitted variables or simultaneity bias. The purpose of the quantitative exercise is to ‘normalise’ the prices across different contracts to enable a better comparison to be made between them. This normalisation is necessary in the absence of perfectly identical contracts and supply characteristics.
The regression analysis reflects the main features of the bilateral contracts at issue:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>including the quantity variable in the regression reflects the fact that prices are in general lower when quantities purchased are higher<a> (<span>1</span>)</a>,</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>including the supplier identity reflects the fact that some suppliers have characteristics which would allow them to establish prices differently from others, taking into account that contract supplies from virtually all electricity suppliers active in Romania are included in the dataset,</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>including year dummies reflects the time dimension and the possible change in market conditions from one year to another.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
As regards the first step of the empirical analysis, the results of the regression analysis of the dataset contracts are reported in Table 1 below.
As regards the second step of the empirical analysis, the Commission has identified a benchmark for every year and has then tested the position of the contracts relative to this benchmark in order to conclude whether the prices charged by Hidroelectrica were lower or higher than the modelled benchmark price. The following steps describe in detail the methodology used to determine the benchmark:
Firstly, for each contract of the dataset, it was calculated how far the actual price departed from its corresponding benchmark price, calculated on the basis of the regression and of the characteristics of the contract;
Secondly, the most-downward-diverging contract (‘MDD’) was identified; this was the dataset contract whose observed price departed most from its own corresponding benchmark price (in absolute terms). There were reasons, very conservative as they were, for choosing the MDD contract, involving a range of variation below the central estimated value of the benchmark price. Firstly, the econometric model does not fully explain the observed price in the dataset, and the single estimate of the benchmark price was provided with a confidence interval and a margin of error above or below the estimate. Secondly, deviations from a single possible price exist on the real market; the MDD contract, which stems from a contract based on market conditions (see recitals 36 to 38) supplies quantified information about the possible extent of such deviations and provides a market-based range around the calculated benchmark price.
Thirdly, the price difference in relation to the MDD contract is used to separate contracts below the benchmark price from contracts above this:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>if a contract has an observed price below its corresponding benchmark price and if the price difference for this contract is larger than the MDD price difference, then this contract is considered prima facie not to be market-compliant,</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>otherwise the contract should be deemed to be market-compliant.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
The table below presents detailed results from the regression analysis of the sample of contracts from the dataset. The regression explains 74 % of the variations in the data, which is a relatively good fit. The coefficient estimates presented in the table below are used at a second stage to predict the ‘benchmark’ price for the sample of contracts under investigation (‘out-of-sample predictions’).

The following tables show the results of the empirical analysis, which uses the regression analysis detailed in Table 1 in which, for each year, the most-downward-diverging contract (‘MDD’) is selected on the basis of the difference in price levels (in RON/MWh) between each contract's estimated price and its corresponding observed price. Tables 2-4 below show the differences between Hidroelectrica's contract prices for each of the years (i.e.: 2007-2010) vis-à-vis the ‘simulated’ benchmark prices for all the contracts under investigation.
For 2007, the MDD contract, that is to say the contract in the non-suspect dataset with the highest difference between the observed price and its corresponding estimated price, has a price difference estimated at […] RON/MWh. Two Hidroelectrica contracts have an observed price below their estimated price with a price difference larger than […] RON/MWh, namely the contracts with Electrocarbon and Elsid, with an observed price difference of approximately […] RON/MWh (see Table 2).

Sensitivity analysis
In the previous empirical analysis, the MDD contract was defined as the contract in the dataset, for a given year, that presented the highest price difference in absolute terms (RON/MWh) between the observed price and its corresponding estimated price.
In order to check the robustness of the results, a sensitivity analysis was performed. The same analysis was now performed, but defining the MDD contract as the contract with the largest difference between the estimated price and its corresponding observed price, expressed as a percentage of the estimated price. In the sensitivity analysis, the MDD contract was now defined as the contract with the largest difference between the estimated price and its corresponding observed price, expressed as a percentage of the estimated price. While this analysis should not affect significantly the selection of the MDD contract, it could affect the contracts that are selected. The results are shown in Tables 6-9 below. They confirm the validity of the results from the main analysis.

The prices of electricity in contracts between Hidroelectrica and Luxten-Lighting, Electrocarbon and Elsid are still found not to be in line with the benchmark price. The percentage price differences are considerably higher for the contracts with Luxten-Lighting for the years 2008 and 2009 and with Electrocarbon and Elsid for the period 2007-2010 . In addition, two other contracts appear, namely with Alro in 2008 and Energy Holding in 2009. The percentage price difference in both cases is very close to the percentage price difference of the MDD contract. The observed price for the 2008 contract with Alro is […] % lower than its estimated price, whereas the percentage price difference in relation to the MDD contract was […] % in 2008. The observed price for the 2009 contract with Energy Holding is […] % lower than its estimated price, whereas the percentage price difference in relation to the MDD contract was […] % in 2009. Overall, these two contracts should be considered to be in line with the benchmark price.
In addition to the main sensitivity analysis performed by defining the MDD as a percentage difference in relation to the benchmark price, which confirms the validity of the results, further sensitivity tests of the results obtained from the preferred definition of MDD in absolute values were carried out, as follows:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>an arbitrary 10 % mark-up was deducted from the absolute value of the MDD: the modified MDD does not affect the conclusion for the contracts under investigation from 2008, 2009 and 2010. For 2007, a difference of 2,5 RON/MWh below the applied price of […] RON/MWh would appear for EFT (i.e. the benchmark-compliant price would have been […] RON/MWh); this difference, not observed for EFT prices in 2008, 2009 and 2010, is deemed to be negligible,</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>likewise, use of the second downward deviation (2nd DD) as reference would capture only two more contracts (Luxten-Lighting and EFT) for 2007, but this does not mean that any other of the contracts under investigation in the period analysed would appear as being below the benchmark prices or that the contract with EFT would appear as being below the benchmark price for 2008, 2009 and 2010,</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>regression data from 2011, not initially tested, was introduced: even if the values shown in Tables 2 to 5 change slightly, the qualitative results remain unchanged,</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>investigated contract prices deemed to be in line with the benchmark price were reintroduced in the regression as dataset (in-sample): in this case too, the conclusion for the contracts under investigation does not change.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
It follows that these additional sensitivity tests relating to the main approach confirm the robustness of the results of the econometric analysis.
<note>
( 1 ) A preliminary processing of the data eliminated four (non-suspect) contracts corresponding to the intra-group sales of ALRO from 2007 to 2010, as they are likely to reflect market conditions different from those prevailing in bilateral contract negotiations between a supplier and an independent buyer, which is the crucial factor in this case.
( 2 ) Standard errors are presented in parentheses: *** means that the coefficient is statistically significant at a 1 % level, ** means that it is statistically significant at a 5 % level and * means that it is statistically significant at a 10 % level.

(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:

REGULATION (EU) 2020/2227 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 23 December 2020
amending Regulation (EU) 2017/2403 as regards fishing authorisations for Union fishing vessels in United Kingdom waters and fishing operations of United Kingdom fishing vessels in Union waters
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 43(2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,
After consulting the European Economic and Social Committee,
Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure ( 1 ) ,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>On 29 March 2017, the United Kingdom submitted the notification of its intention to withdraw from the Union pursuant to Article 50 of the Treaty on European Union (TEU).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>The Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community <a>(<span>2</span>)</a> (‘Withdrawal Agreement’) contains arrangements for the application of provisions of Union law to and in the United Kingdom beyond the date on which the Treaties cease to apply to and in the United Kingdom. The Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) applies to and in the United Kingdom during the transition period in accordance with the Withdrawal Agreement and will cease to apply on 31 December 2020.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>When the CFP ceases to apply to and in the United Kingdom, United Kingdom waters (territorial sea and adjacent exclusive economic zone) will no longer be part of Union waters. Consequently, in the absence of an agreement between the Union and the United Kingdom containing provisions on fisheries, Union and United Kingdom fishing vessels risk not having the possibility to utilise fully the fishing opportunities that might be made available for 2021.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>To ensure the sustainability of fisheries and in view of the importance of fisheries for the economic livelihood of many communities in the Union and in the United Kingdom, the possibility of arrangements for continued reciprocal access by Union and United Kingdom fishing vessels to each other’s waters after 31 December 2020 should be maintained. The purpose of this Regulation is to create the appropriate legal framework for such reciprocal access.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>The territorial scope of this Regulation and any reference to the United Kingdom therein does not include Gibraltar.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>The fishing opportunities for the year 2021 are to be established by the Union and the United Kingdom in full compliance with the requirements set out in Articles 61 and 62 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea <a>(<span>3</span>)</a>. To ensure sustainable exploitation of marine living resources and stability within Union waters and United Kingdom waters, the quota allocations and shares for the Member States and the United Kingdom are to be set in accordance with the respective applicable law of the Union and of the United Kingdom.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>In view of the long-standing fishing patterns of United Kingdom fishing vessels in Union waters and vice versa and in order to obtain reciprocal access to waters, the Union should provide for a mechanism for United Kingdom fishing vessels to access Union waters by means of authorisations, in order to be able to fish the quota shares that will be allocated to the United Kingdom, under the same conditions that apply to Union fishing vessels. Such fishing authorisations should only be granted if and to the extent that the United Kingdom continues to provide authorisations for Union fishing vessels to continue fishing within United Kingdom waters.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>Regulation (EU) 2017/2403 of the European Parliament and of the Council <a>(<span>4</span>)</a> sets out the rules for issuing and managing fishing authorisations for fishing vessels in waters under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of a third country and for third country fishing vessels conducting fishing operations in Union waters.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>Regulation (EU) 2017/2403 lays down rules for fishing operations carried out by Union fishing vessels in the waters of a third country outside the framework of an agreement and provides that a flag Member State may grant direct authorisations and establishes the conditions and procedures for the granting of such authorisations. Given the number of Union fishing vessels that carry out fishing activities in United Kingdom waters, those conditions and procedures would lead to considerable delays and an increased administrative burden in the absence of an agreement between the Union and the United Kingdom containing provisions on fisheries. It is therefore necessary to provide for specific conditions and procedures to facilitate the issuing of authorisations to Union fishing vessels by the United Kingdom for the operation of fishing activities in United Kingdom waters.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>It is necessary to derogate from the rules that apply to third country fishing vessels and provide for specific conditions and procedures allowing for the issuing of authorisations to United Kingdom fishing vessels by the Union for the operation of fishing activities in Union waters.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>Regulation (EU) 2017/2403 should therefore be amended accordingly.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

In the absence of the conclusion of an agreement between the Union and the United Kingdom containing provisions on fisheries, this Regulation should enter into force as a matter of urgency on the day following that of its publication in the<span>Official Journal of the European Union</span> and should apply from the day following that on which Union law ceases to apply to and in the United Kingdom pursuant to Articles 126 and 127 of the Withdrawal Agreement. As a contingency measure, it should apply until the earliest of the following dates: 31 December 2021 or the date on which an agreement between the Union and the United Kingdom containing provisions on fisheries enters into force or provisionally applies.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(13)</p></td><td><p>In view of the need to adopt this Regulation before the day on which Union law ceases to apply to and in the United Kingdom pursuant to Articles 126 and 127 of the Withdrawal Agreement, and the need to provide for procedures for authorising sustainable fishing operations in United Kingdom and Union waters on the basis of reciprocity at the latest by that day, to avoid an abrupt discontinuation of fishing operations, it was considered to be appropriate to provide for an exception to the eight-week period referred to in Article 4 of Protocol No 1 on the role of national Parliaments in the Union, annexed to the TEU, to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and to the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2021/1474
of 14 September 2021
extending the definitive anti-dumping duty imposed by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2384 and Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/271 on imports of certain aluminium foil originating in the People’s Republic of China to imports of certain aluminium foil consigned from Thailand, whether declared as originating in Thailand or not
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/1036 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2016 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Union ( 1 ) (‘the basic Regulation’) and in particular Article 13 thereof,
Whereas:
1. PROCEDURE
1.1. Previous investigation and existing measures
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>In October 2009, by Council Regulation (EC) No 925/2009, <a>(<span>2</span>)</a> the Council imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of certain aluminium foil (‘jumbo rolls’) originating in, amongst others, the People’s Republic of China (‘PRC’) following an anti-dumping investigation (‘the original investigation’). The measures took the form of an ad valorem duty ranging between 6,4 % and 30,0 %.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>In December 2015, by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2384, <a>(<span>3</span>)</a> the European Commission (‘the Commission’) maintained the definitive measures (‘the measures in force’) on imports from the PRC following an expiry review pursuant to Article 11(2) of the basic Regulation (‘the review investigation’).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>In February 2017, by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/271, <a>(<span>4</span>)</a> the Commission extended the measures in force to imports of slightly modified certain aluminium foil from the PRC, following an anti-circumvention investigation pursuant to Article 13(3) of the basic Regulation (‘the previous anti-circumvention investigation’).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
1.2. Request
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>The Commission received a request pursuant to Articles 13(3) and 14(5) of the basic Regulation to investigate the possible circumvention of the anti-dumping measures imposed on imports of certain aluminium foil originating in the PRC by imports consigned from Thailand, whether declared as originating in Thailand or not, and to make such imports subject to registration.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>The request was lodged on 9 November 2020. The applicant requested anonymity both at application stage and for the duration of the investigation. The applicant duly substantiated its request, which was accepted by the Commission as it considered there were sufficient grounds to grant confidentiality of its identity.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>The request contained sufficient evidence of a change in the pattern of trade involving exports from the PRC and Thailand to the Union that had taken place following the imposition of measures on jumbo rolls. This change appeared to stem from the consignment of jumbo rolls via Thailand to the Union after having undergone assembly operations in Thailand. The request also contained sufficient evidence showing that such assembly operations constituted circumvention as Chinese parts accounted for more than 60 % of the total value of the assembled product, while the value added during the assembly operation was lower than 25 % of the manufacturing cost.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>Furthermore, the request contained sufficient evidence that the practice described above was undermining the remedial effects of the existing anti-dumping measures in terms of quantities and prices. In addition, there was sufficient evidence that the prices of jumbo rolls consigned from Thailand were dumped in relation to the normal value previously established for jumbo rolls.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
1.3. Product concerned and product under investigation
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>The product concerned is aluminium foil of a thickness of not less than 0,008 mm and not more than 0,018 mm, not backed, not further worked than rolled, in rolls of a width not exceeding 650 mm and of a weight exceeding 10 kg, classified on the date of entry into force of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2384 under CN code ex 7607 11 19 (TARIC code 7607111910), aluminium foil of a thickness of not less than 0,007 mm and less than 0,008 mm, regardless of the width of the rolls, whether or not annealed, classified on the date of entry into force of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/271 under CN code ex 7607 11 19 (TARIC code 7607111930), aluminium foil of a thickness of not less than 0,008 mm and not more than 0,018 mm and in rolls of a width exceeding 650 mm, whether or not annealed, classified on the date of entry into force of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/271 under CN code ex 7607 11 19 (TARIC code 7607111940), aluminium foil of a thickness of more than 0,018 mm and less than 0,021 mm, regardless of the width of the rolls, whether or not annealed, classified on the date of entry into force of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/271 under CN code ex 7607 11 19 (TARIC code 7607111950), and/or aluminium foil of a thickness of not less than 0,021 mm and not more than 0,045 mm, when presented with at least two layers, regardless of the width of the rolls, whether or not annealed, classified on the date of entry into force of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/271 under CN code ex 7607 11 90 (TARIC codes 7607119045 and 7607119080) and originating in the People’s Republic of China (‘the product concerned’). This is the product to which the measures in force currently apply.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>The product under investigation is the same as that defined in the preceding recital, currently falling under CN codes ex 7607 11 19 (TARIC codes 7607111910, 7607111930, 7607111940, 7607111950) and ex 7607 11 90 (TARIC codes 7607119044, 7607119046, 7607119071, 7607119072), but consigned from Thailand, whether declared as originating in Thailand or not (TARIC additional code C601), (‘the product under investigation’).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>The investigation showed that jumbo rolls exported from the PRC to the Union and jumbo rolls consigned from Thailand, whether originating in Thailand or not, have the same basic physical and chemical characteristics and have the same uses, and are therefore to be considered as like products within the meaning of Article 1(4) of the basic Regulation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
1.4. Initiation
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>Having determined, after having informed the Member States, that sufficient evidence existed for the initiation of an investigation pursuant to Article 13(3) of the basic Regulation, the Commission initiated an investigation by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/2162 on 21 December 2020 <a>(<span>5</span>)</a> (‘the initiating Regulation’) and made imports of jumbo rolls consigned from Thailand, whether declared as originating in Thailand or not, subject to registration in accordance with Article 14(5) of the basic Regulation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
1.5. Comments on initiation
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(12)</p></td><td><p>After initiation, Dingheng New Materials Co., Ltd, Thai Ding Li New Materials Co., Ltd and their related companies (together ‘the Dingsheng Group’) argued that the initiation of the investigation was unwarranted. <a>(<span>6</span>)</a></p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(13)</p></td><td><p>According to the Dingsheng Group, the request leading to the opening of the investigation did not contain the required<span>prima facie</span> evidence. It claimed that the information in the request was outdated, as it was based on a period until December 2019, while the investigation was initiated in December 2020. The Dingsheng Group argued that this is in contrast with Article 6(1) of the basic Regulation, which states that the investigation period ‘shall, normally, cover a period of no less than six months immediately prior to the initiation of proceedings’.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(14)</p></td><td><p>In addition, the Dingsheng Group claimed that the export statistics reported in the request were inaccurate and unreliable. These statistics were based on CN codes and HS codes <a>(<span>7</span>)</a>, which include a number of different products other than those relevant to the investigation and thus cannot be considered sufficient evidence.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(15)</p></td><td><p>The Commission disagreed. With regard to the reference period used in the request, Article 6(1) of the basic Regulation concerns the investigation period to be used during the investigation, not the period on which the request is based. The Dingsheng Group has not argued that the use of more recent data would have led to a different conclusion with regard to the alleged circumvention practices. With regard to the customs statistics on which the request was based, the applicant provided those statistics that were reasonably available to it for the purpose of the request, as required by Article 5(2) of the basic Regulation. In any case, when analysing the request, the Commission cross-checked the data provided by the applicant against statistics at 10-digit TARIC level and including data until September 2020. This analysis confirmed the allegations in the request.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(16)</p></td><td><p>Following disclosure the Dingsheng Group reiterated its claim that the request was based on outdated information and that Article 6(1) in conjunction with Article 13(3) of the basic Regulation requires the Commission to carry out an overall examination of the accuracy of the request, including whether the information contained therein is up-to-date. Therefore, according to the Dingsheng Group, the Commission should have requested the applicant to update the figures contained in the request with more recent information. Otherwise, ‘<span>applicants requesting the initiation of an anti-circumvention investigation would be free to base the request on the period that suits better to them, without any limitation</span>’.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(17)</p></td><td><p>In addition, the Dingsheng Group claimed that, although the Commission cross-checked the information provided by the applicant with more recent TARIC level data, there is no trace in the file of such cross-check, nor is it mentioned in the initiating Regulation, which refers only to the evidence provided in the request. According to the Dingsheng Group the fact that the use of more recent data would have led to the same conclusion is irrelevant for the determination of whether the request satisfied the standard of evidence requested by the law to initiate the proceeding.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(18)</p></td><td><p>As explained in recital (15) above, the reference to Article 6(1) of the basic Regulation is irrelevant for the data used in the request, since it refers to the period used during the investigation, not the request. Furthermore, Article 13(3) of the basic Regulation requires that the initiation of the investigation is based on ‘<span>sufficient evidence’</span>, the determination of which leaves a certain level of discretion to the Commission. In any event, as explained above in recitals (6)-(7), this criteria was fulfilled. Article 5(2) of the basic Regulation requires an applicant to base the request on those statistics reasonably available to the applicant. This does not open the door for applicants to pick and choose the most convenient period, as suggested by the Dingsheng Group. The cross-check of slightly more recent and specific data carried out by the Commission before initiation showed that there were no indications that the information used in the request was outdated, rather the contrary since using more recent data would have shown similar trends and would have led to the same conclusions. The Commission therefore rejected these claims.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(19)</p></td><td><p>The Dingsheng Group also claimed that the available evidence was not sufficient to demonstrate the existence of circumvention. Due to the alleged unreliability of the statistics mentioned in recital (14), the Dingsheng Group claimed that these statistics cannot constitute evidence of the change in the pattern of trade as required by Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation. In addition, it was argued that the requirement of the existence of injury in terms of both quantities and prices undermining the remedial effects of the original anti-dumping investigation was not fulfilled since the underlying analysis was based on the abovementioned allegedly unreliable data and therefore inconclusive. In addition, the calculations in the request were based on only one of the two relevant CN codes. Finally, the injury margin calculated in the request was negligible, according to the Dingsheng Group, and thus not convincing evidence of any undermining of the effects of the measures in force. The additional evidence provided by the applicant in the request, such as quotes from EU producers, was claimed to be an invalid basis for the injury calculations in the request.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(20)</p></td><td><p>The Commission disagreed. Regarding the alleged unreliability of the data used for the analysis, the applicant based its analysis on the data that was reasonably available to it, as set out in recital (15), and the evidence thus provided was considered sufficient to initiate the investigation. The fact that calculations were based on only one of the CN codes (7607 11 19) did not undermine the accuracy of the request. As pointed out by the applicant in its rebuttal of Dingsheng Group’s submission, the General Court held that ‘<span>the basic regulation does not require, where the product concerned contains several types of products, as in the present case, that the complaint should provide information on all those product types</span>’. <a>(<span>8</span>)</a> It was not contested by the Dingsheng Group that this particular CN code covered the most representative product types. In fact, import data from Comext at 10-digit TARIC level showed that during the investigation period there were no imports at all of the products falling under the other CN code (7607 11 90). Therefore, including that CN code would not have changed the outcome of the analysis in the request.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(21)</p></td><td><p>With regard to the level of the injury margin, the margin found by the applicant of 3,2 % was considered sufficient to conclude at initiation that the remedial effects of the duty are being undermined in terms of the prices of the like product. As the applicant set out in its comments to Dingsheng Group’s submission, the product under investigation is very price sensitive, with competition largely based on price. In such a context, an injury margin of 3,2 % can be considered to undermine the remedial effect of the duties in terms of prices, in particular in a situation where the quantities of the imports increased significantly.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(22)</p></td><td><p>Concerning the data used for the undercutting calculations, the applicant based its calculations on the information that was reasonably available to it, which in this case were several quotes from suppliers in combination with London Metal Exchange (‘LME’) prices. In its submission, the Dingsheng Group did not put forward a more reasonable methodology for performing the calculations, which could have been available to the applicant. The Commission therefore considered that the methodology used was sufficiently reliable to perform the necessary calculations in the request.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(23)</p></td><td><p>Following disclosure, the Dingsheng Group claimed that the Commission, by stating that ‘<span>the Dingsheng Group did not put forward a more reasonable methodology for performing the calculations</span>’, tried to reverse the burden of proof onto the interested parties. Instead of examining the accuracy and adequacy of the information provided by the applicant, the Commission ‘<span>seemingly accepted the data provided in the request at face value, without any further examination’.</span></p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(24)</p></td><td><p>The Commission rejected these claims. As with all requests for initiation of an investigation, the Commission thoroughly examined all data and other evidence provided by the applicant and considered that the data used was reasonable and sufficiently accurate to justify the initiation of the investigation. Moreover, the Commission objected to the inference made by the Dingsheng Group that it had tried to reverse the burden of proof. The Commission had simply taken note of the fact that the Dingsheng Group did not put forward an alternative method to substantiate its claim that the methodology used by the applicant had been unreliable.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(25)</p></td><td><p>The Dingsheng Group also argued that the normal value was calculated using the normal value of the review investigation, thus not taking into account the extended product scope of the previous anti-circumvention investigation. In addition, it stated that the export price used by the applicant in the request was based on Eurostat statistics for a CN code that did not concern jumbo rolls, but rather small rolls <a>(<span>9</span>)</a>. The Dingsheng Group thus claimed that the dumping margin in the request was unreliable as it was based on incorrect figures.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(26)</p></td><td><p>The Commission disagreed. To determine the existence of dumping, Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation requires a comparison with the normal value previously established for the like product. In accordance with this provision, the applicant used the normal value as established in the review investigation. Moreover, the inclusion of the normal values of the previous anti-circumvention investigation as well would only have increased the dumping margin, since these normal values were higher than the ones applied in the review investigation. Accordingly, the Commission considered the use of the normal value as established in the review investigation a conservative estimate for the calculation of the dumping margin.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(27)</p></td><td><p>After disclosure, the Dingsheng Group repeated its claim that the extended product scope should have been taken into account in the calculation of the normal value in the request, since Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation requires considering all normal values previously established, not only those of the last review investigation. However, Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation refers to ‘<span>the normal values previously established for the like product</span>’. There is no requirement that all normal values from all previous investigations need to be taken into account. In any event, as stated in recital (26), there was sufficient evidence based on the normal values from the review investigation alone, which represent the majority of imports (see recital (20)) to justify the initiation of the investigation.

More detailed data were collected for the period from 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020 (‘the reporting period’ or ‘RP’) in order to examine if imports were undermining the remedial effect of the measures in force in terms of prices and/or quantities and the existence of dumping.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

First, because TPL claimed that it did not import the product concerned or the product under investigation, but rather aluminium converter foil. Second, because, according to the applicant, it is unlikely that TPL did not import the product concerned or under investigation since there is a significant overlap between the products imported by TPL and the product under investigation.

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(42)</p></td><td><p>In the present investigation, since the evidence provided by the applicant in the request pointed to assembly operations in Thailand, the Commission more specifically analysed whether the criteria set out in Article 13(2) of the basic Regulation were met, in particular:</p><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>whether the assembly operation started or substantially increased since, or just prior to, the initiation of the anti-dumping investigation and whether the parts concerned are from the country subject to measures, and</p></td></tr></tbody></table><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>whether the parts constitute 60 % or more of the total value of the parts of the assembled product and whether the added value of the parts brought in, during the assembly or completion operation, was greater than 25 % of the manufacturing costs.</p></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.2. Level of cooperation
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(43)</p></td><td><p>The cooperating group of companies in Thailand, the Dingsheng Group, accounted for more than 95 % of all exports to the EU during the reporting period. The level of cooperation was thus considered high. There was no cooperation by exporting producers in the PRC, other than those companies in the PRC that were part of the Dingsheng Group. Therefore, findings with respect to imports of jumbo rolls from China into the Union and exports from China to Thailand were based on facts available in accordance with Article 18 of the basic Regulation. As such, the information provided by the cooperating group of companies was complemented by data extracted from databases such as the 14(6) database, which provides information at company-specific level, the Global Trade Atlas <a>(<span>13</span>)</a>, Eurostat and other publically available information.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(49)</p></td><td><p>The main raw material for the production of aluminium household foil is primary aluminium. This raw aluminium is then processed to produce foil stock, which in turn is further worked into jumbo rolls.

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(50)</p></td><td><p>Table 2 shows that since 2016, there has been a continuous increase in the exports of foil stock from the PRC to Thailand. In this respect, the Commission noted that foil stock was possibly not only used for the production of jumbo rolls in Thailand, but also, for example, for the production of small rolls. In addition, foil stock is used as a raw material in a number of other industries, such as the packaging industry or for isolation purposes. Therefore, only a portion of these foil stock imports is actually used in the jumbo rolls production process.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(51)</p></td><td><p>Nevertheless, the significant increase in foil stock import volumes from the PRC to Thailand indicated an increasing demand for such raw materials in Thailand.

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(52)</p></td><td><p>The cooperating Dingsheng Group accounted for almost all (more than 95 %) imports of the product under investigation from Thailand during the reporting period. The Thai entities consist of one exporting producer (Dingheng) and one trader (Thai Dingli) who claimed to sell to the Union only the products produced by Dingheng. Dingheng is a Chinese-owned company, which set up production facilities in Thailand in 2018 and sold its first products to the EU in the first half of 2019. In its questionnaire reply it stated that it purchased all raw materials (foil stock) from the PRC.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(53)</p></td><td><p>The increase of jumbo rolls exported from Thailand to the Union, the parallel decrease of jumbo rolls exported from the PRC to the Union, and the increase in exports of foil stock from the PRC to Thailand in the same period constitutes a change in the pattern of trade between the PRC, Thailand and the Union within the meaning of Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation. This is especially true for the cooperating Thai companies, which only started importing raw materials from the PRC and producing and exporting jumbo rolls to the Union after the extension of the measures following the previous anti-circumvention investigation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.4. Nature of circumvention practices for which there was insufficient due cause or economic justification
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(54)</p></td><td><p>Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation requires that the change in the pattern of trade stems from a practice, process or work for which there is insufficient due cause or economic justification other than the imposition of the duty. The practice, process or work includes the consignment of the product subject to the existing measures via third countries, and the assembly of parts/completion operations in a third country in accordance with Article 13(2) of the basic Regulation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(55)</p></td><td><p>Dingheng produces jumbo rolls from foil stock. The production process, according to the company’s exemption request, consists of operations such as further rolling, slitting, annealing and packaging. The Commission considered these operations as relatively minor.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(56)</p></td><td><p>The Dingsheng Group claimed that the aforementioned operations are not minor, since the foil stock undergoes different processes requiring different and specific machines and argued that its claim was further supported by the fact that the products manufactured by Dingheng are classifiable under a different customs heading compared to the input material.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(57)</p></td><td><p>The Commission acknowledged that the input material undergoes several processes before it is sold as the product under investigation by Dingheng. However, these cannot be seen as major operations, at least not when compared to the production process that takes place before the input material arrives at the Dingheng production site. The production process of aluminium foil stock involves melting aluminium ingots, casting, sawing, scalping, heating, several stages of hot- and cold rolling and annealing. The following steps to turn the foil stock into jumbo rolls are therefore comparatively relatively minor in scope and, as shown in recital (82) below, of a relatively limited added value, which is the relevant criterion in this respect. In addition, the change in customs heading cannot be considered as proof of the impact of the operations performed on the input material. In fact, Article 13(1)(a) of the basic Regulation explicitly mentions as a circumvention practice ‘<span>the slight modification of the product concerned to make it fall under customs codes which are normally not subject to the measures</span>’. The claims made by the Dingsheng Group were therefore rejected.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(58)</p></td><td><p>As set out in recital (34), Dingheng is a subsidiary of a Chinese company, and as such, part of the Chinese-owned Dingsheng Group. This group is made up of, among others, companies that produce aluminium household foil and related products, provide raw materials for such production and/or trade such raw materials or finished products. In previous investigations concerning jumbo rolls it was found that certain Chinese entities within the Dingsheng Group were exporting jumbo rolls at dumped prices, <a>(<span>17</span>)</a> and circumventing the duties imposed by the original and review investigations by slightly modifying the product. <a>(<span>18</span>)</a> According to the 14(6) database, no imports from the relevant Chinese exporting producer in the Dingsheng Group were made since the previous anti-circumvention investigation, which coincides in time with when Dingheng started exporting to the Union from Thailand. The information provided by the Chinese entities in the Dingsheng group confirmed that no exports were made by these companies to the Union during this period.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(59)</p></td><td><p>Dingheng explained that the rationale for starting jumbo rolls production in Thailand was to establish a presence abroad of the Dingsheng Group, in line with ‘its mission of globalization and transnational blueprint’. The public listing of Dingheng’s mother company on the stock exchange in 2018 provided the necessary financial funds to allow for its expansion into Thailand. In addition, establishing a production site in Thailand would allow the group to hedge metal risks in international markets, to enable purchasing aluminium raw materials at LME price instead of the Shanghai market price and to expand its business in other, more profitable markets than the PRC. Dingheng also explained that, although during the investigation period it was producing jumbo rolls from aluminium foil stock, the intention according to its investment plan was to establish a casting line aimed at production from aluminium ingots. Once the casting line would be in operation, Dingheng would globally source aluminium ingots and significantly decrease the percentage of Chinese raw materials, thereby mitigating the risk to raw material volatility.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(60)</p></td><td><p>The Commission noted that the situation during the reporting period did not reflect the company’s intentions as laid out in its investment plan. In practice, during the reporting period Dingheng sourced all its raw materials from the PRC, and produced all jumbo rolls from imported aluminium foil stock. Moreover, Dingheng complemented its own production of jumbo rolls by jumbo rolls purchased from its related companies in the PRC, as its own production was not sufficient to satisfy the demand of its customers during the reporting period. Although Dingheng provided proof showing that the planned casting line was under construction, it was neither completed nor used during the reporting period.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(61)</p></td><td><p>In addition, the company’s investment plan is in fact a feasibility study report, which analysed whether it would be economically feasible to add production capacity in the Dingheng production site, through among other things, the addition of a casting line. The report dates from August 2019, which is after Dingheng had already started the production of jumbo rolls from imported aluminium foil stock. In addition, the report mentions importing raw materials (aluminium ingots) from the PRC also in the future, which counters the company’s argument of establishing production outside of the PRC to purchase raw materials at a lower price. Although the company might in practice indeed start purchasing its raw materials outside of the PRC, the Commission could not draw any conclusions about an unknown future situation on the basis of the facts available during the reporting period.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(62)</p></td><td><p>Moreover, the company could not provide any evidence of due cause or economic justification for exporting jumbo rolls from Thailand to the Union other than the aforementioned plans or intentions for future investments or production. The feasibility report presented as an investment plan dates from after the establishment of the production site in Thailand, and can thus not be presented as evidence of economic justification for exporting jumbo rolls from Thailand to the Union during the reporting period. In addition, an internet search revealed that the avoidance of paying anti-dumping duties was used by Dingheng as an argument to attract customers, where one website mentions ‘<span>We can provide you alu foil from our Thailand or Italy factory to avoid anti-dumping tax</span>’. <a>(<span>19</span>)</a></p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(63)</p></td><td><p>After disclosure, the Dingsheng Group submitted a report from 2018 (‘the 2018 report’), claiming that it was a first version of the 2019 feasibility study report (‘the 2019 report’). The Dingsheng Group also emphasised that, although it was called a feasibility study report and not an investment plan, it was analysed by the Board of Directors of Dingsheng’s main shareholder in the context of the approval of the investment of Thailand.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(64)</p></td><td><p>The Commission examined the 2018 report and found that it, although very similar to the 2019 report, is much more limited in scope of envisaged activities. Whilst the 2018 report mentions a rolling mill only and lists projected equipment that includes machinery meant only for rolling, winding, slitting and annealing, the 2019 report, on the other hand, mentions a rolling and casting line. The casting line is crucial since, according to the company’s earlier submitted information, its establishment would eliminate the need for procuring foil stock from China as it would enable the production of foil stocks in Thailand by using raw materials (aluminium ingots) sourced globally (see also recital (59) above).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(65)</p></td><td><p>As explained in recital (61) above, the 2019 report dates from after the establishment of the Dingheng production site. The Dingsheng Group, however, claimed that the 2019 report was ‘<span>nothing else than an integration and a revision of the First Plan which was prepared in 2018 and which could not be implemented by the Dingsheng Group</span>’. In addition, the Dingsheng Group claimed that the 2019 report suggested to downsize the initial project, envisaging a production capacity of [40 000 – 60 000] tonnes per year instead of [50 000 – 70 000] tonnes per year. However, the Commission considered this claim to be factually incorrect given that the 2019 report explicitly mentions in several instances that the purpose of the report is to enable an additional production capacity of [40 000 – 60 000] tonnes to reach an annual output of [90 000 – 130 000] tonnes. In fact, the title of the report is ‘<span>Add [40 000 – 60 000] tons of aluminum foil production capacity project</span>’.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(66)</p></td><td><p>The Dingsheng Group has not provided any information demonstrating that at the time of the 2018 report and the investment decision, there was any intention of establishing a production site in Thailand that would not require importing aluminium foil stock from China. On the contrary, the information provided indicates an intention to establish a facility for producing jumbo rolls from imported foil stock by performing relatively minor operations only. The situation during the reporting period in fact reflected the production facility as envisaged in the 2018 report. The only document provided that mentions the possibility of establishing a casting line dates from 2019, which is after the establishment of the Dingheng production facility.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(67)</p></td><td><p>The Dingsheng Group also claimed that the fact that the 2019 report mentions importing raw materials (aluminium ingots) from China (as mentioned in recital (61) above), cannot be taken as a lack of economic justification for the setting up of operations in Thailand. In this context, the Dingsheng Group pointed to information provided to the Commission in a deficiency reply where it claimed it would be ‘<span>economically illogical’</span> to import raw material from China, since a 30 % export tax is levied on aluminium ingots from China. The Dingsheng Group thus claimed that this raw material will be sourced from other countries. In addition, the Group argued that the introduction of the planned casting line will eliminate the need to purchase foil stock from China.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(68)</p></td><td><p>However, both the 2018 and the 2019 reports mention sourcing raw materials from China, whether it concerns foil stock or ingots. The 30 % export tax on ingots from China was not mentioned anywhere in the report, even though, allegedly, this (or a similar) tax already existed at the time of those studies. In addition, the envisaged production of aluminium foil stock within the Dingheng production site is not enough to cover the planned aluminium foil production. In fact, the 2019 report states ‘<span>The annual production of aluminum foil blanks requires [70 000 – 90 000]t, part of which is produced by the newly-built casting and rolling workshop, and the rest is imported from China</span>.’</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(69)</p></td><td><p>Whether Dingheng will in the future procure raw material from China or from other countries in the future and whether those choices would be economically logical or not are, in any event, not decisive for the current investigation. The Commission has to base its conclusions on the facts and figures that relate to the investigation period. As already stated in recital (61) above, it is impossible to draw any conclusions about an unknown future situation based on the facts available during the reporting period.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(70)</p></td><td><p>The Dingsheng Group also argued that an advertisement where the avoidance of anti-dumping duties is mentioned as a way to attract customers (see recital (62) above), is by nature ‘<span>subsequent to corporate business decisions</span>’ and ‘<span>a mere statement of facts</span>’. It can therefore not ‘<span>shed any light in relation to the alleged lack of economic justification’</span>. The Dingsheng Group is correct in stating that the advertisement as such cannot be seen in itself as conclusive proof for the reason for establishing a production facility in Thailand. It does indicate, however, that the avoidance of anti-dumping duties played a role in the economic (marketing) decisions that the Dingsheng Group made. Decisions, for example, on how to ensure potential clients will purchase Dingsheng Group products from any of its production sites. No other argument was brought forward for clients to choose the Thai production site as their supplier, such as the quality or price of the product, rather than the other production sites. The advertisement, which has been removed in the period after disclosure, only mentioned the avoidance of the anti-dumping duties.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(71)</p></td><td><p>In addition, the Dingsheng Group provided arguments concerning due cause or economic justification for expanding its operations from China to Thailand in 2018. These included the ability to expand production capacity, the more lenient environmental regulations in Thailand, the need to establish a presence on other markets since the Chinese foil market is saturated, and the need to overcome recent fluctuations in aluminium futures markets. However, as the Dingsheng Group itself acknowledged, these arguments do not explain the current production situation and might be relevant for the future situation only, when Dingheng will allegedly start producing jumbo rolls from globally sourced aluminium ingots.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(72)</p></td><td><p>Finally, the Dingsheng Group claimed that the Commission should not base its analysis on a temporary situation but also take the future situation into account. However, as already mentioned in recital (69) above, the Commission is legally obliged to base its analysis on facts and figures that related to the investigation period. These facts showed that Dingheng produced jumbo rolls from foil stock imported from China and sold these mainly to international customers. Only in 2019, after the establishment of the production site, there was a first mention of changing the production process in Thailand and adding a casting line to the production site. Most of the aforementioned reasons for establishing a presence outside China have therefore yet to come to fruition and cannot be accepted as an economic justification for establishing the current production site in Thailand.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(73)</p></td><td><p>In view of the above, the claims put forward by the Dingsheng Group were rejected. The investigation did not reveal sufficient due cause or an economic justification of the establishment of a production site in Thailand as described above, other than to avoid the payment of the anti-dumping duties currently in force. <a>(<span>20</span>)</a></p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.5. Start or substantial increase of operations
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(74)</p></td><td><p>Article 13(2) of the basic Regulation requires the assembly operation to have started or substantially increased since, or just prior to, the initiation of the anti-dumping investigation, while the parts concerned are from the country subject to anti-dumping measures.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(75)</p></td><td><p>Even though the information provided by the companies in the exemption request and two subsequent replies to deficiency letters was not perfect in all respects, the Commission considered that the information was sufficient to determine whether the criteria of Article 13 were fulfilled.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(76)</p></td><td><p>As shown in Table 2, imports of jumbo rolls from Thailand were negligible in 2016 and 2017. After the extension of the anti-dumping duties to the slightly modified product from the PRC in the previous anti-circumvention investigation in 2017, imports from Thailand started increasing significantly in 2018 and doubled in volume each year since. As already mentioned above, more than 95 % of all imports of jumbo rolls during the reporting period came from Dingheng and Thai Dingli, which were established in 2018.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(77)</p></td><td><p>After disclosure the Dingsheng Group claimed that the Commission was factually incorrect to assert that imports from Thailand increased in 2018, and that more than 95 % of all imports of jumbo rolls in the reporting period came from Dingheng and Thai Dingli. According to the Dingsheng Group, Dingheng only started commercial production in 2019 and cannot be responsible for 95 % of imports in 2018.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(78)</p></td><td><p>The Commission noted that Dingsheng Group’s claim was based on an incorrect interpretation of what was stated above in recital (76). Dingheng and Thai Dingli accounted for 95 % of imports in the reporting period, meaning from 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020 and not in 2018. During the reporting period, as the exemption request showed and as the Dingsheng Group confirmed in its submission, both Dingheng and Thai Dingli exported jumbo rolls to the Union. The data available to the Commission from the request, statistical databases and information provided by the Dingsheng Group itself, showed that other companies cannot be responsible for more than 5 % of imports into the Union during the reporting period. The claim was therefore rejected.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(79)</p></td><td><p>Even when assuming that only Dingheng’s own produced jumbo rolls were exported to the Union during the reporting period (and not the ones purchased from the PRC), according to the information provided by Dingheng, 100 % of all raw materials (aluminium foil stock) was purchased from (related and unrelated) Chinese companies. Therefore, the Commission concluded that the assembly operation started since the initiation of the anti-dumping investigation, while the parts concerned are from the country subject to measures.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.6. Value of parts and added value
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(80)</p></td><td><p>Article 13(2)(b) of the basic Regulation states that, as far as assembly operations are concerned, another condition to establish circumvention is that the parts (of Chinese origin, in this case) constitute 60 % or more of the total value of the parts of the assembled product and that the added value of the parts brought in, during the assembly or completion operation, is less than 25 % of the manufacturing cost.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(81)</p></td><td><p>As mentioned in recital (79), Dingheng produced the jumbo rolls sold to the Union from raw materials which were 100 % purchased in the PRC, thus well over 60 % threshold of the total value of the parts. It was therefore concluded that the first criterion set out in Article 13(2)(b) of the basic Regulation was met.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(82)</p></td><td><p>For carrying out the 25 % test, the value added to the parts brought in was determined as the sum of labour costs and factory overheads incurred by the assembler with respect to those parts. Selling, general and administrative expenses as well as profit were not considered for the purpose of this calculation. The value added thus established was then expressed as a percentage of the manufacturing cost which consists of the value of all parts, based on the factory-delivered, arm’s length purchase prices of these parts plus the value added to the parts during the assembly or completion operation. The average value added thus established during the reporting period was found to be significantly below the 25 % threshold set by Article 13(2)(b) of the basic Regulation. It was therefore concluded that the second criterion set out in Article 13(2)(b) of the basic Regulation was also met.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.7. Undermining of the remedial effects of the duty
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(83)</p></td><td><p>In accordance with Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation, the Commission examined whether the imports of the product under investigation, both in terms of quantities and prices, undermined the remedial effects of the measures currently in force.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(84)</p></td><td><p>The increase of imports of jumbo rolls from Thailand was significant, as explained in recitals (44) and (45) above. These imports increased from less than 1 % of the total volume of imports of jumbo rolls in 2016 to almost 9 % during the reporting period. In comparison, the imports from Chinese companies that were not exempted during the last anti-circumvention investigation, decreased from 13 % in 2016, to less than 1 % during the reporting period.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(85)</p></td><td><p>Regarding prices, the Commission compared the average non-injurious price as established in the previous expiry review <a>(<span>21</span>)</a> with the weighted average export CIF prices determined on the basis of the information provided by the cooperating producer, duly adjusted to include conventional customs duties and post clearance costs. This price comparison showed the existence of underselling of 49 % and undercutting of 40 %.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(86)</p></td><td><p>The Commission concluded that the existing measures were undermined in terms of quantities and prices by the imports from Thailand subject to this investigation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(87)</p></td><td><p>Following disclosure the Dingsheng Group argued that insufficient information had been provided to it to verify the accuracy of the calculations, since the non-injurious price and the target profit level to calculate underselling and undercutting levels had not been disclosed.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(88)</p></td><td><p>The Commission rejected this claim and considered that the information disclosed to the Dingsheng Group had been sufficient to allow it to effectively comment on the Commission’s findings as set out in the disclosure documents. In this respect the Commission noted that the analysis performed in anti-circumvention investigations is limited to establishing whether the remedial effects of the duty are being undermined in terms of prices and/or quantities. This analysis is done by using the information on the non-injurious price level from the previous investigation,<span>in casu</span> the review investigation. The non-injurious price level was provided to the Dingsheng Group in the specific disclosure of 24 June 2021, and presented in ranges. From the information provided in the specific disclosure, it could also easily be determined that the target profit used was 6 %. The information provided was therefore considered sufficient to verify the accuracy and adequacy of the Commission’s calculations. In addition, it should be noted that the one cooperating company in the review investigation is also part of the Dingsheng Group, and the Group was thus provided with more details at that point in time. The claims were therefore rejected.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.8. Evidence of dumping
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(89)</p></td><td><p>In accordance with Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation, the Commission also examined whether there was evidence of dumping in relation to the normal values previously established for the like product.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(90)</p></td><td><p>To this end, export prices of the cooperating exporting producer were determined as described in recital (85) above and compared to the normal values established during the last expiry review (for the original like product) and anti-circumvention investigation (for the slightly modified product), and duly adjusted to London Metal Exchange (LME) fluctuations. In line with the calculations done in the last expiry review and the previous anti-circumvention investigation, this adjustment was necessary due to the fact that prices of aluminium products refer to price fluctuations of the basic raw material, primary aluminium. LME prices are considered the global benchmark for primary aluminium.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(91)</p></td><td><p>Following disclosure the Dingsheng Group claimed that the LME adjustment was incorrect. According to it the upward adjustment should have been a downward adjustment, as the LME price experienced a decreasing trend between the review investigation and the reporting period.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(92)</p></td><td><p>As required by Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation the calculations were based on the normal values previously established for the like product. This includes the LME values that were used at the time of those investigations. The LME values for the review investigation period cited by the Dingsheng Group in their submission are not in line with the values used in previous investigations and cannot serve therefore as a basis for comparison. Using the values established in the previous investigations and comparing these to the LME data from the same data source as originally used (Bloomberg) for the reporting period, i.e. applying the same methodology as in the previous investigations, showed that the upward adjustment done by the Commission was accurate. The Commission therefore rejected this claim.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(93)</p></td><td><p>Following disclosure, two unrelated Union importers requested the Commission to examine whether jumbo rolls are currently still being dumped, and provided some information regarding current import prices of jumbo rolls from the PRC into the United Kingdom. However, the Commission’s analysis was limited to the information which related to the investigation and reporting periods, and not to information relating to a subsequent period, as follows from Article 6(1) of the basic Regulation. Moreover, the information provided by the unrelated importers pertain to current import prices from the PRC, which is not the country concerned, into the United Kingdom, which is not a Member State of the Union. The Commission therefore rejected this request.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(94)</p></td><td><p>The comparison of normal values and export prices at product-type level shows that jumbo rolls were imported at dumped prices during the reporting period by the cooperating companies.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
3. REQUESTS FOR EXEMPTION
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(95)</p></td><td><p>One exporting producer in Thailand requested an exemption from the possible extended measures in accordance with Article 13(4) of the basic Regulation and submitted a questionnaire reply.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(96)</p></td><td><p>As set out above, however, the investigation has confirmed that this producer circumvented the measures in place. It was therefore concluded to reject the request.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
4. MEASURES
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(97)</p></td><td><p>Based on the above findings, the Commission concluded that the anti-dumping duty imposed on imports of jumbo rolls originating in the PRC are being circumvented by imports of the product under investigation consigned from Thailand. Since the exports of the cooperating company constitute more than 95 % of the total imports of the product under investigation and no other exporting producer cooperated, this conclusion extends to the whole country.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(98)</p></td><td><p>Therefore, in accordance with Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation, the anti-dumping measures in force should be extended to imports of the product under investigation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(99)</p></td><td><p>Pursuant to Article 13(1), second paragraph of the basic Regulation, the measure to be extended should be the one established in Article 1(2) of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2384 for ‘all other companies’ and previously extended by Article 1 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/271, which is a definitive anti-dumping duty of 30 % applicable to the net, free-at-Union-frontier price, before customs duty.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(100)</p></td><td><p>Pursuant to Article 13(3) of the basic Regulation, which provide that any extended measure should apply to imports that entered the Union under registration imposed by the initiating Regulation, duties are to be collected on those registered imports of the product under investigation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(101)</p></td><td><p>As explained in recital (39) above, the previous anti-circumvention investigation had established an end-use mechanism aimed at providing genuine importers of aluminium converter foil with the possibility to request an exemption from paying the anti-dumping duties. TPL, an unrelated importer of aluminium converter foil, argued that requiring genuine importers of aluminium converter foil in the current investigation to comply with such an end-use procedure would unfairly penalise importers of a product that falls outside the scope of the investigation. In this respect, TPL pointed to the recent creation of specific TARIC codes for converter foil, which were created after the previous anti-circumvention investigation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(102)</p></td><td><p>However, a decision on whether or not to have an end-use procedure in place for imports of jumbo rolls from Thailand does not fall within the scope of the current investigation. The purpose of this anti-circumvention investigation is to determine whether or not to extend the measures in place to imports from Thailand of the like product. The investigation can change neither the level nor the form of the measures, and therefore cannot change the existence of the end-use procedure.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(103)</p></td><td><p>In any event, the possibility to distinguish between converter foil and household foil currently still depends on the declaration as to its end-use by the importer concerned, even if there are currently specific TARIC codes for converter foil. The description of TARIC code 7607111960, for example, includes the wording ‘for other uses than household aluminium foil’. Imports under this code, which was created specifically to include converter foil, are subject to end-use provisions to enable the possibility to actually declare the imports under this code. The creation of specific codes for converter and household foil, therefore, did not remove the need for the end-use procedure. The existing end-use procedures thus appear still necessary.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(104)</p></td><td><p>Following disclosure TPL reiterated its request to not extend the end-use procedure established in the previous anti-circumvention investigation. According to TPL, the end-use procedure is not necessary since it was established only to ensure importers of converter foil were importing genuine converter foil and not slightly modified aluminium household foil. TPL argued that this distinction is not necessary in the current investigation, since the issue at hand now is the determination of whether the product exported from Thailand is of Thai or Chinese origin.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(105)</p></td><td><p>The Commission disagreed with this argumentation. Extending the anti-dumping measures inevitably includes the extension of the previously established end-use procedure as well. The fact that the end-use procedure is not a measure but a special customs procedure, as argued by TPL, does not detract from the fact that the application of the measures in the previous anti-circumvention investigation was explicitly combined with this end-use procedure. In addition, since the current investigation also included the slightly modified product, the differentiation between converter foil and household foil remains relevant, also for products imported from Thailand. As explained in recital (103), the difference between the two product types still depends on the declared end-use by the importer. Such declaration is an indispensable element to determine whether the product can be imported under the specific TARIC code for converter foil, or under one of the TARIC codes for aluminium household foil. The Commission therefore rejected the request by TPL.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(106)</p></td><td><p>Following disclosure, two unrelated Union importers provided evidence of a recent increase in the cost of raw materials and conversion costs faced by manufacturers of household foil in the Union, and requested to balance the interest of Union producers of jumbo rolls with those of Union producers of household foil and final customers. However, the data provided by those Union importers concerned the period after the investigation period of the current investigation and was therefore not taken into account. Moreover, an analysis regarding the effect of the measures does not fall within the scope of an anti-circumvention investigation, which is limited to establishing whether the remedial effect of the original measures are being undermined by the circumvention practices. A full analysis, including the effect of the measures on the Union interest, may however be done in other types of investigations, such as interim or expiry reviews. <a>(<span>22</span>)</a> The Commission therefore rejected this request.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

( 15 ) Recitals 73 – 80 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/271 ( OJ L 40, 17.2.2017, p. 51 ). See also recital (33) above.
( 16 ) The foil stock quantities have been adapted, in as far as possible, to reflect foil stock which can actually be used to produce aluminium household foil, and not, for example, for the printing industry, based on the specific product descriptions in the Global Trade Atlas.
( 17 ) Section 4.4 of Regulation (EC) No 925/2009 ( OJ L 262, 6.10.2009, p. 1 ), and recitals 80 – 82 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2384 ( OJ L 332, 18.12.2015, p. 63 ).
( 18 ) Recitals 46 – 49 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/271 ( OJ L 40, 17.2.2017, p. 51 ).
( 19 ) See https://www.europages.co.uk/DING-HENG-NEW-MATERIALS-COLTD/00000005395623-719214001.html (last accessed 26 April 2021).
( 20 ) TPL also provided some arguments to explain why it believes that its (confidential) Thai supplier should be exempted from the scope of the measures, providing what, in TPL’s opinion, is sufficient economic justification for setting up production in Thailand. However, TPL is not an importer of the product under investigation but of converter foil, and cannot in any event argue for an exemption on behalf of its supplier. Moreover, the relevant statements were based on TPL’s ‘best knowledge and market intelligence’, and no further proof was provided to support the arguments. However, the arguments put forward by TPL are in part similar to those used by Dingheng, and are as such addressed in this Regulation.
( 21 ) Updated for the reporting period to reflect LME fluctuations.
( 22 ) An expiry review investigation of the existing anti-dumping measures on the imports of jumbo rolls from China was initiated on 17 December 2020 ( OJ C 436, 17.12.2020, p. 10 ).

DIRECTIVE 2014/61/EU OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 15 May 2014
on measures to reduce the cost of deploying high-speed electronic communications networks
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 114 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee ( 1 ) ,
Having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the Regions ( 2 ) ,
Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure ( 3 ) ,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>The digital economy is changing the internal market profoundly. With its innovation, speed and reach across borders it has the potential to take internal market integration to a new level. The Union's vision is that of a digital economy that delivers sustainable economic and social benefits based on modern online services and fast internet connections. A high quality digital infrastructure underpins virtually all sectors of a modern and innovative economy and is of strategic importance to social and territorial cohesion. Therefore, all citizens as well as the private and public sectors must have the opportunity to be part of the digital economy.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>Acknowledging the importance of high-speed broadband roll-out, Member States have endorsed the ambitious broadband targets set out in the Communication from the Commission entitled ‘The Digital Agenda for Europe — Driving European growth digitally’ (‘the Digital Agenda’), namely to bring basic broadband to all Europeans by 2013, and to ensure that, by 2020, all Europeans have access to much higher internet speeds of above 30 Mbps and 50 % or more of Union households subscribe to internet connections above 100 Mbps.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>Given the rapid evolution of technologies, the exponential growth in broadband traffic and the increasing demand for e-services, the targets laid down in the Digital Agenda should be considered to be an absolute minimum and the Union should aim for more ambitious broadband targets in order to achieve more growth, competitiveness and productivity. In the context of the review of this Directive, the Commission should assess whether and how this Directive could further contribute to that aim.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>The Digital Agenda has also identified the need for policies to lower the costs of broadband deployment in the entire territory of the Union, including proper planning and coordination and the reduction of administrative burdens. In that respect, significant upfront investments need to be made by Member States in order to enable the sharing of physical infrastructure. Having regard to the Digital Agenda targets, while at the same time acknowledging the significant reduction of financial resources dedicated to broadband under the Connecting Europe Facility established by Regulation (EU) No 1316/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council<a> (<span>4</span>)</a>, Member States should be able, for the purposes of attaining the objectives of this Directive, to use Union funding available in accordance with applicable Union provisions.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>Reducing the costs of deploying high-speed electronic communications networks would also contribute to achieving the digitisation of the public sector, allowing a digital leverage effect on all sectors of the economy, in addition to the reduction in costs for public administrations and increased efficiency of services provided to citizens.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>Taking into account the need for action at Union level to provide better broadband coverage, including by reducing the cost of high-speed broadband infrastructure as reflected by the Conclusions of the European Council of 13/14 December 2012, the Communication from the Commission entitled ‘Single Market Act II’ stresses the need for additional efforts in order to achieve quickly the objectives laid down in the Digital Agenda by, inter alia, addressing the high-speed network investment challenge.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>The roll-out of high-speed fixed and wireless electronic communications networks across the Union requires substantial investments, a significant proportion of which is represented by the cost of civil engineering works. Limiting some of the cost-intensive civil engineering works would make broadband roll-out more effective.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>A major part of those costs can be attributed to inefficiencies in the roll-out process related to the use of existing passive infrastructure (such as ducts, conduits, manholes, cabinets, poles, masts, antenna installations, towers and other supporting constructions), bottlenecks related to coordination of civil works, burdensome administrative permit granting procedures, and bottlenecks concerning in-building deployment of networks, which lead to high financial barriers, in particular in rural areas.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>Measures aiming at increasing efficiency in the use of existing infrastructures and at reducing costs and obstacles in carrying out new civil engineering works should provide a substantial contribution to ensuring a fast and extensive deployment of high-speed electronic communications networks while maintaining effective competition, without adversely affecting the safety, security and smooth operation of the existing public infrastructure.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>Some Member States have adopted measures intended to reduce the costs of broadband roll-out. However those measures remain scarce and scattered. Scaling up those measures across the Union could significantly contribute to the establishment of a digital single market. Moreover differences in regulatory requirements sometimes prevent cooperation across utilities and may raise barriers to entry for new network operators and new business opportunities, hindering the development of an internal market for use and deployment of physical infrastructures for high-speed electronic communications networks. Finally, the initiatives at Member State level do not always seem to be holistic, whereas it is essential to take action across the whole roll-out process, and across sectors, in order to achieve a coherent and significant impact.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>This Directive aims at laying down some minimum rights and obligations applicable across the Union in order to facilitate the roll-out of high-speed electronic communications networks and cross-sector coordination. While ensuring a minimum level playing field, this should be without prejudice to existing best practices and measures adopted at national and local level entailing more detailed provisions and conditions as well as additional measures complementing those rights and obligations, in accordance with the subsidiarity principle.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(12)</p></td><td><p>In the light of the<span>lex specialis</span> principle, when more specific regulatory measures in conformity with Union law apply, those should prevail over the minimum rights and obligations provided for in this Directive. Therefore this Directive should be without prejudice to the Union regulatory framework for electronic communications set out in Directive 2002/21/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council<a> (<span>5</span>)</a> as well as Directive 2002/19/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council<a> (<span>6</span>)</a>, Directive 2002/20/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council<a> (<span>7</span>)</a>, Directive 2002/22/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council<a> (<span>8</span>)</a> and Commission Directive 2002/77/EC<a> (<span>9</span>)</a>, including national measures adopted pursuant to that regulatory framework, such as specific symmetric or asymmetric regulatory measures.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(13)</p></td><td><p>It can be significantly more efficient for electronic communications network operators, in particular new entrants, to re-use existing physical infrastructures, including those of other utilities, in order to roll out electronic communications networks, in particular in areas where no suitable electronic communications network is available or where it may not be economically feasible to build up a new physical infrastructure. Moreover, synergies across sectors may significantly reduce the need for civil works due to the deployment of electronic communications networks and therefore also the social and environmental costs linked to them, such as pollution, nuisances and traffic congestion. Therefore this Directive should apply not only to public communications network providers but to any owner or holder of rights to use, in the latter case without prejudice to any third party's property rights, extensive and ubiquitous physical infrastructures suitable to host electronic communications network elements, such as physical networks for the provision of electricity, gas, water and sewage and drainage systems, heating and transport services.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(14)</p></td><td><p>With a view to improving the deployment of high-speed electronic communications networks in the internal market, this Directive should lay down rights for public communications network providers to access physical infrastructure irrespective of its location under fair and reasonable terms consistent with the normal exercise of property rights. The obligation to give access to the physical infrastructure should be without prejudice to the rights of the owner of the land or of the building in which the infrastructure is located.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(15)</p></td><td><p>In view of their low degree of differentiation, the physical facilities of a network can often host a wide range of electronic communications network elements at the same time, including those capable of delivering broadband access services at speeds of at least 30 Mbps in line with the technological neutrality principle, without affecting the main service conveyed and with minimum adaptation costs. Therefore, a physical infrastructure that is intended to only host other elements of a network without becoming itself an active network element, such as in the case of dark fibre, can in principle be used to accommodate electronic communications cables, equipment or any other element of electronic communications networks, regardless of its actual use or its ownership, in the absence of any security concerns or prejudice to the future business interests of the owner of the infrastructure. The physical infrastructure of public communications networks can in principle also be used to accommodate elements of other networks, and therefore Member States may choose to apply the principle of reciprocity in appropriate cases, and allow public communications network operators to offer access to their networks for the deployment of other networks. Without prejudice to the pursuit of the specific general interest linked to the provision of the main service, synergies across network operators should be encouraged in order to contribute to achieving the targets of the Digital Agenda at the same time.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(16)</p></td><td><p>While this Directive should be without prejudice to any specific safeguard needed to ensure safety and public health, the security and integrity of the networks, in particular that of critical infrastructure, and to ensure that the main service provided by the network operator is not affected, in particular in networks used for the provision of water intended for human consumption, general rules in national legislation prohibiting network operators from negotiating access to physical infrastructures by electronic communications network providers could prevent the establishment of a market for access to physical infrastructures. Such general rules should therefore be abolished. At the same time, the measures set out in this Directive should be without prejudice to the possibility for Member States to render the provision of infrastructure access by utilities operators more attractive by excluding revenues stemming from that service from the basis for the calculation of end-user tariffs for their main activity or activities, in accordance with applicable Union law.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(17)</p></td><td><p>A network operator may refuse access to specific physical infrastructures for objective reasons. In particular, a physical infrastructure may not be technically suitable due to specific circumstances concerning infrastructures for which access has been requested, such as lack of currently available space or due to future needs for space which are sufficiently demonstrated, for instance by publicly available investment plans. Similarly, in specific circumstances, sharing the infrastructure may jeopardise safety or public health, network integrity and security, including that of critical infrastructure, or may endanger the provision of services that are primarily provided over the same infrastructure. Moreover, when the network operator already provides wholesale physical network infrastructure access that would meet the needs of the access seeker, access to the underlying physical infrastructure may have an adverse economic impact on its business model and incentives to invest while possibly entailing an inefficient duplication of network elements. At the same time in the case of physical infrastructure access obligations imposed pursuant to the Union regulatory framework for electronic communications, such as those on undertakings having significant market power, this would be already covered by specific regulatory obligations that should not be affected by this Directive.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(18)</p></td><td><p>Where undertakings providing or authorised to provide public communications networks request access in a specified area, network operators should make an offer for the shared use of their facilities under fair and reasonable terms and conditions, including price, unless access is refused for objective reasons. Depending on the circumstances, several elements could influence the conditions under which such access is granted, such as: any additional maintenance and adaptation costs; any preventive safeguards to be adopted to limit adverse impacts on network safety, security and integrity; any specific liability arrangements in the event of damages; the use of any public subsidy granted for the construction of the infrastructure, including specific terms and conditions attached to the subsidy or provided under national law in compliance with Union law; the ability to deliver or provide infrastructure capacity to meet public service obligations; any constraints stemming from national provisions aiming at protecting the environment, public health, public security or to meet town and country planning objectives.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(19)</p></td><td><p>In the event of a disagreement during the commercial negotiation on technical and commercial terms and conditions, each party should be able to call on a dispute settlement body at national level to impose a solution on the parties, in order to avoid unjustified refusals to deal or the imposition of unreasonable conditions. When determining prices for granting access, the dispute settlement body should ensure that the access provider has a fair opportunity to recover its costs incurred in providing access to its physical infrastructure, taking into account specific national conditions and any tariff structures put in place to provide a fair opportunity for cost recovery taking into account any previous imposition of remedies by a national regulatory authority. In so doing, the dispute settlement body should also take into account the impact of the requested access on the business plan of the access provider, including the investments made by the access provider to whom the access is requested, in particular investments made in the physical infrastructure to which the access is requested. In the specific case of access to physical infrastructures of public communications network providers, the investments made in such infrastructure may directly contribute to the objectives of the Digital Agenda and downstream competition may be influenced by free-riding. Hence, any access obligation should fully take into account the economic viability of those investments based on their risk profile, any time schedule for the return on investment, any impact of access on downstream competition and consequently on prices and return on investment, any depreciation of the network assets at the time of the access request, any business case underpinning the investment, in particular in the physical infrastructures used for the provision of high-speed electronic communications services, and any possibility previously offered to the access seeker to co-deploy.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(20)</p></td><td><p>In order to effectively plan the deployment of high-speed electronic communications networks and to ensure the most effective use of existing infrastructures suitable for rolling out electronic communications networks, undertakings providing or authorised to provide public communications networks should be able to have access to minimum information concerning physical infrastructures available in the area of deployment. Such minimum information should make it possible to assess the potential for using existing infrastructure in a specific area, as well as to reduce damage to any existing physical infrastructures. In view of the number of stakeholders involved, and in order to facilitate access to that information, also across sectors and borders, such minimum information should be made available via a single information point. That single information point should allow access to minimum information already available in electronic format subject to limitations to ensure network security and integrity, in particular that of critical infrastructure, or to safeguard legitimate operating and business secrets.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(21)</p></td><td><p>Without imposing any new mapping obligation on Member States, this Directive should provide that minimum information already collected by public sector bodies and available in electronic format pursuant to national initiatives as well as Union law, such as Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council<a> (<span>10</span>)</a>, should be made available, for example by means of a hyperlink, to the single information point. That would allow coordinated access to information on physical infrastructures for public communications network providers while at the same time ensuring the security and integrity of any such information, in particular as concerns national critical infrastructure. The making available of such information should be without prejudice to the transparency requirements already applicable to the re-use of public sector information pursuant to Directive 2003/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council<a> (<span>11</span>)</a>. Where information available to the public sector does not ensure adequate knowledge of the existing physical infrastructures in a specific area or of a certain type, network operators should make the information available to undertakings providing or authorised to provide public communications networks.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(22)</p></td><td><p>Where minimum information is not available via the single information point, the possibility of undertakings providing or authorised to provide public communications networks to directly request such specific information from any network operator in the area concerned should nevertheless be ensured. In addition, if the request is reasonable, in particular if needed in view of the possibility to share existing physical infrastructures or to coordinate civil works, undertakings providing or authorised to provide public communications networks should be granted the possibility to make on-site surveys and to request information concerning planned civil works under transparent, proportionate and non-discriminatory conditions and without prejudice to the safeguards adopted to ensure network security and integrity as well as the protection of confidentiality, and operating and business secrets. Advanced transparency of planned civil works by network operators themselves, or via single information points should be incentivised, in particular for areas of greatest utility, by redirecting authorised operators to such information whenever available.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(23)</p></td><td><p>Where disputes concerning access to the information on the physical infrastructures with a view to deploying high-speed electronic communications networks arise, the dispute settlement body should be able to resolve such disputes by means of a binding decision. In any case, decisions of such body should be without prejudice to the possibility of any party to refer the case to a court.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(24)</p></td><td><p>The coordination of civil works concerning physical infrastructures may ensure significant savings and minimise inconvenience to the area affected by the deployment of new electronic communications networks. For that reason, regulatory constraints preventing as a general rule the negotiation among network operators with a view to coordinating such works in order to deploy also high-speed electronic communications networks should be prohibited. In the case of civil works not financed by public means, this Directive should be without prejudice for the stakeholders to conclude civil works coordination agreements according to their own investment and business plans and their preferred timing.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(25)</p></td><td><p>Civil works fully or partially financed by public means should aim to maximise the positive collective outcome, by exploiting the positive externalities of those works across sectors and ensuring equal opportunities to share the available and planned physical infrastructure in view of deploying electronic communications networks. While the main purpose of the civil works financed by public means should not be adversely affected, timely and reasonable requests to coordinate deployment of elements of high-speed electronic communications networks, ensuring for example the coverage of any additional costs, including those caused by delays, and the minimisation of changes to the original plans, should be met by the network operator carrying out directly or indirectly, for example through a sub-contractor, the civil works concerned under proportionate, non-discriminatory and transparent terms. Without prejudice to applicable State aid rules, Member States should be able to provide rules on apportioning the costs associated with the coordinated deployment. Specific settlement procedures should be available to ensure the rapid resolution of disputes concerning the negotiation of those coordination agreements under proportionate, fair and non-discriminatory terms. Such provisions should be without prejudice to the right of the Member States to reserve capacity for electronic communications networks even in the absence of specific requests, with a view to meeting future demand for physical infrastructures to maximise the value of civil works, or to adopt measures entailing similar rights to coordinate civil works for operators of other types of networks, such as gas or electricity.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(26)</p></td><td><p>A number of different permits concerning the deployment of electronic communications networks or new network elements may be necessary, including building, town planning, environmental and other permits, in order to protect national and Union general interests. The number of permits required for the deployment of different types of electronic communications networks and the local character of the deployment may entail the application of a variety of procedures and conditions. While preserving the right of each competent authority to be involved and maintain its decision making prerogatives in accordance with the subsidiarity principle, all relevant information on the procedures and general conditions applicable to civil works should be available via the single information point.

The existence of high-speed electronic communications networks up to the end-user should be facilitated while ensuring at the same time technological neutrality, in particular by high-speed-ready in-building physical infrastructure. Given that providing for mini-ducts during the construction of a building has only a limited incremental cost while retrofitting buildings with high-speed infrastructure may represent a significant part of the cost of high-speed network deployment, all new buildings or buildings subject to major renovation should be equipped with physical infrastructure, allowing the connection of end-users with high-speed networks. In order to roll out high-speed electronic communications networks, new multi-dwelling buildings and multi-dwelling buildings subject to major renovation should be equipped with an access point, by which the provider may access the in-building infrastructure. Moreover, building developers should foresee that empty ducts are provided from every dwelling to the access point, located in or outside the multi-dwelling building. There may be cases such as new single dwellings or categories of major renovation works in isolated areas where the prospect of high-speed connection is considered, on objective grounds, too remote to justify equipping a building with high-speed-ready in-building physical infrastructure or an access point or where so equipping the building would be disproportionate for other economic, urban heritage conservation or environmental reasons, such as for specific categories of monuments.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

Once the network is terminated at the access point, the connection of an additional customer is possible at a significantly lower cost, in particular by means of access to a high-speed-ready vertical segment inside the building, where it already exists.

According to the United Kingdom's declaration, meat products would be imported from Great Britain into Northern Ireland under the following conditions: (i) they would be subject to a channelling procedure applicable from the designated point of exit in Great Britain to destination supermarkets in Northern Ireland; (ii) they would be sold exclusively to end consumers in supermarkets located in Northern Ireland, and would not be sold to other operators in the food chain; (iii) they would be accompanied by official health certificates issued by the competent authorities of the United Kingdom (based on similar models already existing for fresh meat, minced meat and meat preparations); and (iv) they would be packed and labelled for end consumers, bearing a label reading: '<span>These products from the United Kingdom may not be sold outside Northern Ireland</span>'.

ANNEX
APPLICATION OF UNION LAW RELATED TO MEAT PRODUCTS IN NORTHERN IRELAND AFTER THE END OF THE TRANSITION PERIOD
UNILATERAL DECLARATION BY THE EUROPEAN UNION
The European Union takes note of the United Kingdom’s unilateral declaration setting out the practice it intends to put in place as regards imports of these meat products from Great Britain into Northern Ireland for the period 1 July until 30 September 2021. The Union notes that certain adjustments to supply chains have already taken place during the first six months of 2021. According to trade statistics, this is the case in particular as regards minced meat. The purpose of this additional period is to allow stakeholders, and in particular supermarkets in Northern Ireland, to complete the adjustment of their supply chains.
This practice will inform the position of the Union as regards recourse to the exercise of the powers referred to in Article 12(4) of the Protocol.
As referred to in the United Kingdom’s letter of 17 June proposing to extend the approach set out in its unilateral declaration of 17 December 2020 for three more months, during this period the United Kingdom proposes ‘to maintain the existing grace period arrangements that are in place for these movements’.
The Union recalls that the full implementation of the Withdrawal Agreement is an international legal obligation for the Union and the United Kingdom.
The Union notes that meat products that are subject to the channelling procedure referred to in the United Kingdom’s unilateral declaration must remain under the control of the Northern Ireland competent authorities at all stages of that procedure. The Union also underlines the importance of ensuring that Border Control Posts in Northern Ireland have the necessary infrastructure and resources to be able to perform all the controls required by the EU’s Official Controls Regulation. | ENG | 32021D1157 |

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2017/968
of 8 June 2017
granting Cape Verde a temporary derogation from the rules on preferential origin laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/2446, in respect of prepared or preserved mackerel fillets and prepared or preserved frigate tuna or frigate mackerel fillets
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 October 2013 laying down the Union Customs Code ( 1 ) , and in particular Articles 64(6) and 66(b) thereof,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>Cape Verde is a country benefiting from the generalised system of preferences referred to in Regulation (EU) No 978/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council <a>(<span>2</span>)</a> as the GSP. By Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 439/2011 <a>(<span>3</span>)</a> Cape Verde was granted a derogation from Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 <a>(<span>4</span>)</a> in respect of the definition of the concept of originating products used for the purposes of the GSP. The derogation concerned annual volumes of 2 500 tonnes of prepared or preserved mackerel fillets and 875 tonnes of prepared or preserved frigate tuna or frigate mackerel fillets. Under the derogation and within those quantities, these products were considered as originating in Cape Verde even if, despite being produced in Cape Verde, they were produced from non-originating fish. Having been prolonged twice, the derogation then expired on 31 December 2016.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>By letter dated 27 September 2016, Cape Verde submitted a request for a prolongation of that derogation, for the same annual volumes, for a period of two years from 1 January 2017 until 31 December 2018, pending entry into force of the new Economic Partnership Agreement (‘EPA’) between the Union and West Africa initialled on 30 June 2014. By virtue of its cumulation rules, this new agreement will allow the fish processing industry of Cape Verde to comply with the rules on preferential origin by using fish originating in the other West African States.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>From 2008, the total annual quantities that were granted to Cape Verde under the derogation have contributed, to a significant extent, to improving the situation in the Cape Verdean fishery processing sector. Those quantities have also led, to a certain extent, to the revitalisation of Cape Verde's fleet of small fishing vessels, which is of vital importance to the country.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>The arguments in the request demonstrate that, without the derogation, the ability of the Cape Verdean fish processing industry to continue exporting to the Union under the GSP would be significantly affected, which might deter further development of the Cape Verdean fleet of small vessels for pelagic fishing.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>Additional time is needed to consolidate the results already obtained by Cape Verde in its efforts to revitalise its local fishing fleet. The derogation should give Cape Verde sufficient time to prepare itself to comply with the rules for the acquisition of preferential origin.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>Having regard to the temporary nature of derogations granted in respect of the definition of the concept of originating products, the derogation should be granted for a period of two years starting on 1 January 2017, in respect of yearly quantities of 2 500 tonnes for prepared or preserved mackerel fillets and 875 tonnes for prepared or preserved frigate tuna or frigate mackerel fillets. The derogation should, however, end on the day immediately preceding the date of the entry into force of the EPA with West Africa, if it occurs before 31 December 2018.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>The quantities set out in the Annex to this Regulation shall be managed in accordance with Articles 49 to 54 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447 <a>(<span>5</span>)</a> which govern the management of tariff quotas.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>The derogation should be granted on the condition that the customs authorities of Cape Verde take the necessary steps to carry out quantitative checks on exports of the products subject to derogation, and that they forward to the Commission a statement of the quantities in respect of which certificates of origin Form A have been issued pursuant to this Regulation and the serial numbers of those certificates.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>The measures provided for in this Regulation should enter into force as soon the day after its publication in order to take into account the situation of Cape Verde and to allow this country to use the derogation without any further delay.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION (EU) 2023/2913
of 20 December 2023
amending the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/2447 concerning emergency measures in relation to outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza in certain Member States
(notified under document C(2023) 9189)
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/429 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2016 on transmissible animal diseases and amending and repealing certain acts in the area of animal health (‘Animal Health Law’) ( 1 ) , and in particular Article 259(1), point (c), thereof,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) is an infectious viral disease in birds and can have a severe impact on the profitability of poultry farming causing disturbance to trade within the Union and exports to third countries. HPAI viruses can infect migratory birds, which can then spread these viruses over long distances during their autumn and spring migrations. Therefore, the presence of HPAI viruses in wild birds poses a continuous threat for the direct and indirect introduction of these viruses into holdings where poultry or captive birds are kept. In the event of an outbreak of HPAI, there is a risk that the disease agent may spread to other holdings where poultry or captive birds are kept.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>Regulation (EU) 2016/429 establishes a new legislative framework for the prevention and control of diseases that are transmissible to animals or humans. HPAI falls within the definition of a listed disease in that Regulation, and it is subject to the disease prevention and control rules laid down therein. In addition, Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 <a>(<span>2</span>)</a> supplements Regulation (EU) 2016/429 as regards the rules for the prevention and control of certain listed diseases, including disease control measures for HPAI.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/2447 <a>(<span>3</span>)</a> was adopted within the framework of Regulation (EU) 2016/429 and it lays down emergency measures at Union level in relation to outbreaks of HPAI.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>More particularly, Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/2447 provides that the protection, surveillance and further restricted zones established by the Member States following outbreaks of HPAI, in accordance with Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687, are to comprise at least the areas listed as protection, surveillance and further restricted zones in the Annex to that Implementing Decision.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>The Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/2447 was recently amended by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/2778 <a>(<span>4</span>)</a> following outbreaks of HPAI in poultry or captive birds in Belgium, Bulgaria, Germany, France, Italy, Hungary and the Netherlands that needed to be reflected in that Annex.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>Since the date of adoption of Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/2778, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, France and Hungary have notified the Commission of new outbreaks of HPAI in establishments where poultry or captive birds were kept, located in West Flanders province in Belgium, in Holbæk municipality in Denmark, in Lower Saxony, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and North Rhine-Westphalia states in Germany, in Morbihan department in France and in Bács-Kiskun, Békés, Csongrád-Csanád, Hajdú-Bihar and Komárom-Esztergom counties in Hungary.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>In addition, Poland has notified the Commission of outbreaks of HPAI in establishments where poultry were kept, located in West Pomeranian Voivodeship.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>Moreover, certain outbreaks confirmed by Hungary are located in close proximity to the border with Romania. Accordingly, the competent authorities of those two Member States have duly collaborated with regard to the establishment of the necessary surveillance zones, in accordance with Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687, as the surveillances zones extend into the territory of Romania.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>The competent authorities of Belgium, Denmark, Germany, France, Hungary, Poland and Romania have taken the necessary disease control measures required in accordance with Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687, including the establishment of protection and surveillance zones around the outbreaks.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>The Commission has examined the disease control measures taken by Belgium, Denmark, Germany, France, Hungary, Poland and Romania in collaboration with those Member States, and it is satisfied that the boundaries of the protection and surveillances zones established by the competent authorities of Belgium, Denmark, Germany, France, Hungary and Poland, and of the surveillance zones established by the competent authority of Romania are at a sufficient distance from the establishments where the outbreaks of HPAI have been confirmed.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>In the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/2447, there are currently no areas listed as protection and surveillance zones for Poland.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(12)</p></td><td><p>In order to prevent any unnecessary disturbance to trade within the Union and to avoid unjustified barriers to trade being imposed by third countries, it is necessary to rapidly describe at Union level, in collaboration with Belgium, Denmark, Germany, France, Hungary, Poland and Romania, the protection and surveillance zones duly established by Belgium, Denmark, Germany, France, Hungary and Poland, and the surveillance zones duly established by Romania, in accordance with Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(13)</p></td><td><p>Therefore, the areas listed as protection and surveillance zones for Belgium, Denmark, Germany, France, Hungary and Poland, and the areas listed as surveillance zone for Romania in the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/2447 should be amended.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(14)</p></td><td><p>In addition, protection and surveillance zones should be listed for Poland, in the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/2447.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(15)</p></td><td><p>Accordingly, the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/2447 should be amended to update regionalisation at Union level to take account of the protection and surveillance zones duly established by Belgium, Denmark, Germany, France, Hungary and Poland, and of the surveillance zones duly established by Romania in accordance with Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687, and the duration of the measures applicable therein.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(16)</p></td><td><p>Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/2447 should therefore be amended accordingly.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2020/477
of 31 March 2020
amending Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/39 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of peroxosulphates (persulphates) originating in the People’s Republic of China following an expiry review pursuant to Article 11(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1036 of the European Parliament and of the Council
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/1036 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2016 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Union ( 1 ) (‘the basic Regulation’) and in particular Articles 13(3) and 14(5) thereof,
Whereas:
1. PROCEDURE
1.1. Existing measures
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>On 11 October 2007, the Council imposed, by Council Regulation (EC) No 1184/2007 <a>(<span>2</span>)</a>, a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of peroxosulphates originating, inter alia, in the People’s Republic of China (‘the original measures’). Two companies were granted market economy treatment (MET). One received an individual anti-dumping duty rate of 24,5 %. The other company, ABC Chemicals (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (hereafter referred to as ‘ABC Shanghai’), was found not to be dumping and therefore received an individual anti-dumping duty rate of 0 %. All other companies are subject to an anti-dumping duty rate of 71,8 %. The investigation that led to the original measures will be hereinafter referred to as ‘the original investigation’.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>On 17 December 2013, the Council, following an expiry review, extended the anti-dumping measures against imports from the People’s Republic of China (‘the PRC’) by Council Regulation (EU) No 1343/2013 (‘the extended measures’) <a>(<span>3</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>On 17 December 2018, following the publication of a notice of impending expiry of the measure in force <a>(<span>4</span>)</a>, the Commission announced, by a notice published in the<span>Official Journal of the European Union</span> <a>(<span>5</span>)</a> (‘the Notice of Initiation’), the initiation of a second expiry review of the measures pursuant to Article 11(2) of the basic Regulation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>On 17 January 2020, following its second expiry review, the Commission maintained the original measures by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/39 <a>(<span>6</span>)</a>. These measures will hereinafter be referred to as ‘the measures currently in force’.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
1.2. Ex-officio initiation
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>In the first half of 2019, the Commission analysed available evidence on the patterns and channels of sales of peroxosulphates since the imposition of the original measures. Import statistics showed a change in the pattern of trade following the imposition of the definitive anti-dumping duty on the product concerned. Those statistics also showed that Chinese imports are now mainly entering the Union under the TARIC additional code for products manufactured by ABC Shanghai, and are not subject to anti-dumping duties. However, evidence in the possession of the Commission showed that ABC Shanghai was no longer producing peroxosulphates, so the change in the pattern of trade seemed to be due to channelling of exports. There seemed to be no due cause or economic justification for this channelling of exports other than the existing 0 % duty for ABC Shanghai.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>Furthermore, the Commission had sufficient evidence that the remedial effects of the existing anti-dumping measures on peroxosulphates were being undermined both in terms of quantities and prices.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>Finally, the Commission had sufficient evidence that the prices of exports of peroxosulphates by ABC Shanghai were currently dumped in relation to the normal value previously established.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>The Commission therefore decided, after having informed the Member States, to initiate, on its own initiative, an investigation pursuant to Article 13 of the basic Regulation concerning the possible circumvention of the anti-dumping measures currently in force by the company ABC Shanghai and to make imports of peroxosulphates from ABC Shanghai subject to registration. The initiation of the investigation was announced by the publication of an Implementing Regulation in the<span>Official Journal of the European Union</span> on 26 September 2019 (‘the Initiating Regulation’) <a>(<span>7</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
1.3. Investigation
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>The Commission informed the authorities of the People’s Republic of China (‘PRC’), the company ABC Shanghai and the Union industry about the initiation of the investigation. Interested parties were given the opportunity to make their views known in writing, as well as to request a hearing.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>In addition, the Commission specifically requested ABC Shanghai to inform the Commission whether it wished to cooperate in the proceeding and fill in a questionnaire. On 8 October 2019, ABC Shanghai confirmed that it would cooperate with the Commission in order to prove that its practice and pattern of sales are economically and legally justified. Consequently, on 9 October 2019, a questionnaire was sent to it.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>On 19 November 2019, the Commission received questionnaire replies from ABC Shanghai and its two related companies, i.e. Siancity Xiamen Co., Ltd (‘Siancity’) and Fujian Hongguan Chemical Corp (‘Hongguan’).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(12)</p></td><td><p>On 28 January 2020, the Commission informed all interested parties of the essential facts and considerations based on which it intended to make ABC Shanghai subject to the residual duty rate of 71,8 %. All parties were granted a period within which they could make comments on the disclosure.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(13)</p></td><td><p>On 12 February 2020, ABC Shanghai commented on the Commission’s disclosure. These comments were analysed and taken into account where appropriate. No other interested party submitted comments on the Commission’s disclosure.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
1.4. Reporting period and investigation period
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(14)</p></td><td><p>The investigation period covered the period from 1 January 2016 to 30 June 2019 (the ‘IP’). For the IP data were collected to investigate, inter alia, the alleged change in the pattern of trade and the practice, process or work behind it. For the period from 1 July 2018 to 30 June 2019 (the reporting period or ‘the RP’), more detailed data were requested in order to examine the possible undermining of the remedial effects of the measures in force and the existence of dumping.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2. RESULTS OF THE INVESTIGATION
2.1. General considerations
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(15)</p></td><td><p>The Commission analysed, pursuant to Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation, (i) whether there was a change in the pattern of trade with respect to individual exporting producers in the PRC, (ii) whether this change stemmed from a practice, process or work for which there was insufficient due cause or economic justification other than the imposition of the duty, (iii) whether there was evidence of injury or that the remedial effects of the duty were being undermined in terms of prices and/or quantities of the product under investigation, and (iv) whether there was evidence of dumping in relation to the normal values previously established for the like product.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.2. Product concerned and product under investigation
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(16)</p></td><td><p>The product concerned is peroxosulphates (persulphates), including potassium peroxymonosulphate sulphate, currently falling under CN codes 2833 40 00 and ex 2842 90 80 (TARIC code 2842908020) and originating in the PRC (‘the product concerned’).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(17)</p></td><td><p>Peroxosulphates are used as an initiator or as an oxidising agent in a number of processes. Some examples include their use as polymerisation initiator in the production of polymers, as an etching agent in the production of printed circuit boards, or as a bleaching agent in hair cosmetics.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(18)</p></td><td><p>The product under investigation during this proceeding is the same as that defined in recital (16), currently falling under the same codes as the product concerned and imported under the TARIC additional code A820 (‘the product under investigation’).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.3. Detailed findings of the investigation
2.3.1. Information received from national customs authorities
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(19)</p></td><td><p>On 14 June 2019, the German customs authorities informed the Commission that the invoices of Siancity, a trader related to ABC Shanghai, systematically included a declaration certifying that that the imported peroxosulphates had been produced by the company ABC Shanghai, and therefore the consignments were cleared for free circulation in Germany under the TARIC additional code A820. <a>(<span>8</span>)</a></p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(20)</p></td><td><p>On 2 September 2019, the French customs authorities informed the Commission that they had received an invoice dated 3 June 2019 from Siancity, including a declaration certifying that the imported peroxosulphates had been produced by the company ABC Shanghai.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.3.2. The questionnaire reply from ABC Shanghai and its related companies Siancity and Hongguan
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(21)</p></td><td><p>As mentioned in recital (11), on 19 November 2019, the Commission received questionnaire replies from ABC Shanghai and its two related companies, i.e. Siancity and Hongguan (hereafter ‘ABC Group’ and/or ‘ABC Shanghai and its related companies’). The ABC Group also submitted, on the same day, a more detailed explanatory note, with some detailed preliminary comments on the initiation of this anti-circumvention proceeding.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(22)</p></td><td><p>The main elements of the statements in these documents can be summarised as follows:</p><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>Before and in 2017, ABC Shanghai, which is located in Shanghai, was producing the product concerned.</p></td></tr></tbody></table><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>In February 2017, one of the shareholders of ABC Shanghai acquired 20 % shareholding in Hongguan by contributing both cash and ABC Shanghai’s production facilities. Hongguan is located in Fujian province, about 900 km from Shanghai. Since then, ABC Shanghai and Hongguan are related companies. The latter had been set up in November 2009 and was restructured into a joint stock company in December 2016.</p></td></tr></tbody></table><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>Due to a series of enactments and modifications of the environmental protection laws, including an enactment to relocate dangerous chemical enterprises located in urban and residential areas, the controlling shareholder of ABC Shanghai was compelled to cease the production at its premises in Shanghai. It relocated the production to its related company Hongguan in Fujian province. ABC Shanghai ceased ‘officially’ its production on 31 December 2017 and became a trading company from 1 January 2018 onwards.</p></td></tr></tbody></table><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>ABC Shanghai moved all its production facilities from its premises in Shanghai to the premises of its related company Hongguan in 2018 <a>(<span>9</span>)</a>. Since 2018 <a>(<span>10</span>)</a>, Hongguan produced and sold its peroxosulphates to ABC Shanghai, which in its turn is selling to its customers, including its related company Siancity, which is exporting the product under investigation to the Union market.</p></td></tr></tbody></table><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>ABC Shanghai’s decision and action were allegedly not meant to evade the measures in force.</p></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.3.3. Analysis of the submitted documents by ABC Shanghai and its related companies
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(23)</p></td><td><p>ABC Shanghai was the legal entity specifically identified as an exporting producer in all regulations imposing anti-dumping duties on peroxosulphates originating in the PRC. It is subject to an anti-dumping duty rate of 0 %, applicable to imports under company-specific TARIC additional code A820 <a>(<span>11</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(24)</p></td><td><p>Furthermore, the original investigation as well as the two expiry review Regulations, referred to in recitals (1), (2) and (4) provided that the application of any individual duty rate – including the 0 % duty rate of ABC Shanghai – would be conditional upon the presentation of a valid commercial invoice, bearing a declaration that the product concerned was manufactured by (company name and address) (TARIC additional code).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(25)</p></td><td><p>Following the initiation of the present anti-circumvention investigation, ABC Shanghai informed the Commission, for the first time, on 19 November 2019, that it did not itself manufacture anymore the product under investigation since it ceased its production at the end of 2017. Nevertheless, as mentioned below in recital (39) and on the basis of the statements referred to in recital (40) below, ABC Shanghai still exported at least more than 85 % of the total Chinese import volumes of the product under investigation in 2018 and the RP respectively.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(26)</p></td><td><p>Moreover, as part of its questionnaire reply, Siancity submitted on 19 November 2019 three invoices issued in 2018 to Union importers. These three invoices bear a declaration that the legal entity ABC Shanghai with the TARIC additional code A820, subject to 0 % duty rate, was the manufacturer of the product under investigation covered by the invoice, i.e. peroxosulphates.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(27)</p></td><td><p>The declarations on these three invoices, which led to the application of the 0 % anti-dumping duty rate, were incorrect. As mentioned in recital (22), ABC Shanghai ‘officially’ ceased its production at the end of 2017. It was, therefore, not the manufacturer of the peroxosulphates covered by the three invoices. Those imports should have been declared under the TARIC additional code for ‘all other companies’ and should have been subject to an anti-dumping duty rate of 71,8 %, that is, the anti-dumping duty rate applicable to all other companies not specifically having an individual anti-dumping duty rate.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(28)</p></td><td><p>Based on the above, the Commission concluded that ABC Shanghai and its related companies intentionally concealed the fact that the legal entity ABC Shanghai was not anymore manufacturing the product under investigation as from 2018, as well as the other significant changes in its group structure, to continue to be able to benefit from ABC Shanghai’s individual anti-dumping duty rate of 0 % for imports of product manufactured by its related company Hongguan. That practice constitutes ‘channelling’, as ABC Shanghai’s 0 % individual duty rate is used to ‘channel’ products produced by another company to the Union without paying the otherwise-applicable duty rate on those products.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(29)</p></td><td><p>ABC Shanghai and its related companies have not put forward any evidence that would demonstrate the existence of any due cause or economic justification for this practice other than the potential to avoid the levying of anti-dumping duties on exports of peroxosulphates produced by Hongguan to the Union.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(30)</p></td><td><p>Following disclosure, ABC Shanghai repeated that ‘such change was exclusively propelled and driven by environment requirements, which compelled ABC Shanghai to relocate its entire production facilities outside Shanghai to a different place’. Its decision to relocate was thus necessary for continuing commercial operations and not as a means to circumvent the duty. It also observed that ABC Shanghai is a company run by a private person who had no knowledge of anti-dumping law, circumvention or any reporting obligation to the Commission.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(31)</p></td><td><p>The Commission rejected these arguments.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(32)</p></td><td><p>First, the change in 2018 cannot be qualified as a mere relocation. ABC Shanghai was the legal entity specifically identified as an exporting producer in the regulation imposing anti-dumping duties on peroxosulphates originating in the PRC. In 2017, one of the shareholders of ABC Shanghai bought shares of an existing company (Hongguan), already producing the product concerned. From early 2018 onwards, ABC Shanghai’s production equipment had been moved to this different legal entity (Hongguan). Therefore, Hongguan became the manufacturer of the product under investigation and ABC Shanghai the trader.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(33)</p></td><td><p>Second, ABC Shanghai had received Market Economy Treatment (‘MET’). Granting such treatment depended largely on the economic situation of the production plant at the legal entity in Shanghai. It can neither be assumed, nor has it been demonstrated, that the same conditions exist at the factory of Hongguan in the Fujian province. Therefore, Hongguan could not be treated as having taken over ABC Shanghai’s duty rate, which was based on an MET finding.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(34)</p></td><td><p>Third, the application of its individual duty rate was conditional upon the presentation of a valid commercial invoice, bearing a declaration that the product concerned was manufactured by the legal entity ABC Shanghai. However, the legal entity ABC Shanghai was still identified as the manufacturer of the product under investigation on the import documentation provided to the customs authorities in the EU despite the fact that it was not the legal entity actually having manufactured the goods from early 2018 onwards. Consequently, the duty rate applicable to goods manufactured by ABC Shanghai was wrongfully applied to imports that had, as a matter of fact, been produced by a different legal entity and should have been subject to a higher duty rate.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(35)</p></td><td><p>Fourth, with regard to the argument that the private person running the operations of ABC Shanghai did not have any knowledge of anti-dumping law, the Commission recalled that intention is not a legal requirement to establish the existence of circumvention pursuant to Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation. In any case, the repeated declarations from Siancity to the EU customs authorities that ABC Shanghai was the exporting producer seem to indicate an understanding that only ABC Shanghai would profit from the 0 % duty. It will be for the appropriate authority in the EU to investigate whether there has been customs fraud concerning the declarations on the invoices from the ABC Group.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(36)</p></td><td><p>The Commission therefore maintained its finding that ABC Shanghai and its related companies had not put forward evidence that would demonstrate the existence of any due cause or economic justification for declaring ABC Shanghai as the manufacturer of imports of the product concerned other than avoiding the levying of a higher anti-dumping duty rate on its exports of peroxosulphates to the Union.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.4. Change in the pattern of trade
2.4.1. Import volumes from China
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(37)</p></td><td><p>Company-specific data are available in the 14(6) database, set up pursuant to Article 14(6) of the basic Regulation (‘the 14(6) database’). This database gathers, among others, the data reported each month to the Commission by Member States on imports of products subject to anti-dumping measures also including company specific TARIC additional codes. The Commission therefore used data from the 14(6) database to identify the change in the pattern of trade by comparing exporting producers with different level of duties for the purpose this investigation. That data is in line with the non-verified data which were received as part of the questionnaire reply on 19 November 2019 (see recital 11).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(42)</p></td><td><p>Nevertheless, imports to the Union of the product under investigation attributed to the legal entity ABC Shanghai, were still made during 2018 and the RP after it had ceased production. The import volumes during 2018 and the RP under this TARIC additional code (A820) were at higher levels than during the years 2016 and 2017, when ABC Shanghai was still the manufacturer of the imported peroxosulphates into the Union. In parallel, imports under the TARIC additional code for ‘all other producers’ A999 decreased during the investigation period.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(43)</p></td><td><p>Following disclosure, ABC Shanghai argued that its change of pattern and sales was legitimately justified due to the imposed environment rules, and that it did had no other options than to relocate.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(44)</p></td><td><p>The Commission rejected this claim. As explained above in recital (32) the events of 2018 cannot be qualified as a simple relocation of the production facilities but constituted a change of the corporate structure after which another legal entity produced the product under investigation. In addition, the original investigation had established a duty rate of 0 % in respect of the legal entity ABC Shanghai, which had been based on market economy treatment for that particular entity only (see recital 33 above). ABC Shanghai should therefore have informed the Commission of this change to allow it to examine the consequences, if any of that change for the application of anti-dumping measures to imports of the product under investigation by the new production company. However, ABC Shanghai chose not to do so.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.4.3. Nature of the circumvention practice in China
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(45)</p></td><td><p>Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation requires that the change in the pattern of trade stems from a practice, process or work for which there is insufficient due cause or economic justification other than the imposition of the duty. The practice, process or work includes, inter alia, the reorganisation by exporters or producers of their patterns and channels of sales in the country subject to measures in order to have their products exported to the Union through producers benefiting from an individual duty lower than that applicable to the products of the manufacturers.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(46)</p></td><td><p>As explained in section 2.3, the Commission found that ABC Shanghai and its related companies engaged in circumvention through channelling. Although Hongguan did not have its own company-specific additional code, it started to export large volumes of the product concerned from 2018 onwards into the Union under ABC Shanghai’s company-specific TARIC additional code.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(47)</p></td><td><p>The import volumes into the Union under ABC Shanghai’s company-specific TARIC additional code (A820) represent more than 85 % of the total import volumes into the Union during 2018 and the reporting period, as reported by the 14(6) database. However, the legal entity ABC Shanghai was not the producer of those import volumes, but Hongguan was.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(48)</p></td><td><p>The changes in trade flows to the Union constitute a change in the pattern of trade between the related companies Hongguan (the manufacturer of the product under investigation from 2018 onwards) and ABC Shanghai (the manufacturer of the product under investigation until the end of 2017) in the country subject to measures and the Union, which stems from a practice, process or work for which the investigation did not bring to light any due cause or economic justification other than the avoidance of the residual or the higher duty in force on peroxosulphates originating in the PRC.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(49)</p></td><td><p>In light of the considerations above, the Commission established that channelling practices of the product under investigation were taking place.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.5. Insufficient due cause or economic justification other than the imposition of the anti-dumping duty
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(50)</p></td><td><p>As explained in recitals 28-29, the investigation did not bring to light any due cause or economic justification for the channelling practices by the parties concerned other than the avoidance of the higher duty in force on Hongguan’s imports of peroxosulphates originating in the PRC.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
2.6. Evidence of dumping
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(51)</p></td><td><p>In accordance with Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation, the Commission examined whether there was evidence of dumping in relation to the normal value previously established for the product concerned.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(53)</p></td><td><p>The export price per product type was based on the data provided by Siancity, the related trader within the ABC Group, which was contained in the questionnaire reply received on 19 November 2019.

2.7. Undermining the remedial effect of the anti-dumping duty
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(56)</p></td><td><p>Finally, the Commission examined, in accordance with Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation, whether the imports of the product under investigation had, in terms of quantities and prices, undermined the remedial effects of the measures currently in force.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(57)</p></td><td><p>In recital 109 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/39 the Commission established that the Union consumption amounted to between 37 000 and 43 000 tonnes during the expiry review investigation period (covering the period from 1 October 2017 to 30 September 2018), which is the most recent figure on Union consumption the Commission has in its possession. The market share of imports made under the company-specific TARIC additional code A820 during the RP according to the 14(6) database is more than 10 % of the total Union market, which is an important share of the market.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(58)</p></td><td><p>Regarding prices, an average non-injurious price was not established in the latest investigation leading to the measures currently in force. Therefore, the Commission found it appropriate to use the average cost of production of the Union industry, since such cost is lower than an average non-injurious price. The average cost of production of the Union industry – as established in the latest investigation leading to the measures currently in force – was compared with the weighted average CIF prices of the ABC Group found to be circumventing the measures during this investigation’s RP as reported in the 14(6) database.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(59)</p></td><td><p>Since the CIF prices were below the average cost of production of the Union industry, the circumventing imports were undermining the remedial effects of the duty in terms of prices.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(60)</p></td><td><p>The Commission therefore concluded that the channelling practices described above undermined the remedial effects of the measures currently in force both in terms of quantities and prices.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
3. MEASURES
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(61)</p></td><td><p>Given the above, the Commission concluded that the definitive anti-dumping duty imposed on imports of peroxosulphates originating in the PRC has been circumvented by means of channelling practices via ABC Shanghai, which is subject to a 0 % anti-dumping duty.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(62)</p></td><td><p>Pursuant to the second subparagraph of Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation, the anti-dumping duty on imports of the product concerned originating in the PRC applicable to ‘all other companies’ should therefore be extended to imports of the same product declared to be manufactured by ABC Shanghai (i.e. the product under investigation), as they are actually being produced by Hongguan, which is not subject to any individual duty rate (but, instead, subject to the ‘all other companies’ rate).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(63)</p></td><td><p>Articles 13(3) and 14(5) of the basic Regulation provide that any extended measures should apply to imports, which entered the Union under registration imposed by the initiating Regulation. Therefore, duties should be collected on the registered imports of peroxosulphates originating in the PRC that were imported into the Union under the TARIC additional code A820 during the period of registration of imports. The amount of anti-dumping duties to be retroactively collected should be the residual duty of 71,8 %.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
4. DISCLOSURE
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(64)</p></td><td><p>The Commission informed all interested parties of the essential facts and considerations leading to the above conclusions and invited them to comment. The oral and written comments submitted by the parties were taken into consideration where appropriate.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

ANNEX
APPLICATION FOR A NEW AMENDMENT TO THE PRODUCT SPECIFICATION
‘ DEALURILE CRIŞANEI ’
PGI-RO-A0106-AM01
Date of submission: 3.6.2015
1. Rules applicable to the amendment
Article 105 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 — Non-minor amendment
2. Description and reasons for the amendment
2.1. Amendment to the demarcated area
The Association of Wine Producers of the traditional vineyards of Satu Mare has submitted an application to modify the specifications for the Dealurile Sătmarului GI, to extend the demarcated production area to include localities which have the specific characteristics of the Satu Mare area. These localities were incorrectly included in the demarcated area of the specifications for the Dealurile Crișanei GI, given that there is a series of arguments regarding the location and the eco-pedoclimatic factors in those localities, which are specific to the area of the indication Dealurile Sătmarului and not Dealurile Crișanei. The above is supported by information regarding the wines from the wine-growing region of Dealurile Sătmarului, i.e. from Rătești, which have long been produced and known under the designation ‘Dealurile Răteștilor’ or ‘Vinul de Halmeu’.
The inclusion of the localities in question in the Satu Maru area and therefore within the indication Dealurile Sătmarului and not in Dealurile Crișanei, is supported by data regarding the relief and climate of hills such as Ardud-Beltiug-Hurez, Hododului, Tășnad-Săuca-Pir, Săcășeni-Supur, Tășnad-Cehal, which have steeper slopes with terraces mitigating their inclines, Pleistocene soils of red clays and north-facing slopes with gentler inclines covered with more podzolic soils. Mediterranean influences permit the development and production of wines with floral or fruity aromas (forest berries of Pinot noir, Merlot, Burgund mare), as well as peppery or grassy wines with pleasant primary notes (Fetească albă, Furmint). The flavours are typical of the variety: round, tannic, velvety and with moderate astringency, full-bodied, fresh (white wines).
The localities which are being removed from the area of the geographical indication Dealurile Crişanei are located in the county of Satu Mare. They are:

The locality of Valea lui Mihai in the county of Satu Mare was mistakenly included in the geographical indication of Dealurile Crişanei in the technical file forwarded to the Commission in accordance with Article 118(s) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007.
The mistake of including the locality of Valea lui Mihai in the county of Satu Mare, in the area of the indication, is a result of the fact that in the past, according to the division/demarcation of wine-growing areas during the period of the Communist regime in Romania, when localities were organised by vineyards and wine-growing centres, there was a well-known vineyard called Valea lui Mihai which extended into the two counties, Satu Mare and Bihor.
In accordance with Order of the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry No 397/2003 approving the Designation of wine-growing areas and the grouping of localities into wine-growing regions, vineyards and wine-growing centres (published in Official Gazette No 513 of 16 July 2003), in point V — Wine-growing Region of Crişanei and Maramureşului, position 28 places Valea lui Mihai in the county of Satu Mare outside of Bihor, on the basis of the old sectors mentioned above.

8. Description of the link(s)
Link with the demarcated area
The specific natural feature of the environment is the Crișul Repede river area, bounded on the north by the Șes mountain, gentle hills close to the plain and the influence of the Central European climate, causing a certain reduction in temperatures and increased rainfall variability. Winters in this area are milder, and wine-growing areas enjoy a significant amount of sunshine while being sheltered from winds and cold currents.
In the wine-growing areas of Diosig and Valea lui Mihai, the area of Silvania and the wine-growing centres of Biharia and Tileagd there are vineyards distributed over a large area, to the north and north-east of the Oradea. The wine-growing centres of the wine areas (Diosig, Săcuieni and Sâniob) have a tradition dating back to 1569-1578. The white wines produced here are rich, with an expressive taste and a strong acidic and fruity character. The varieties with particular potential in this wine-growing area include Fetească albă, Fetească regală, Riesling Italian and the aromatic Muscat Ottonel. The wines of this area have a well-balanced structure. The oenoclimatic potential of the wine-growing region has a score of 4 287 on the hydro-helio-thermal index. This means that the region is particularly suitable for white wines, which have expressive aromas of acacia flowers, green apples and cut grass (Fetească regală), with a long finish (Tămâioasă românească), ripe pears, notes of vanilla when matured in oak barrels, with prominent exotic notes of pineapple (Chardonnay), balanced and with good acidity. Red wines are full-bodied, velvety, round, with aromas of cherries to ripe sour-cherries with ageing in the case of Pinot noir, peppery notes in the case of Syrah, and typical forest fruits — fresh raspberries in the case of Merlot.
9. Essential further conditions

DECISION OF THE EUROPEAN SYSTEMIC RISK BOARD
of 16 December 2015
on a coordination framework for the notification of national macroprudential policy measures by relevant authorities, the issuing of opinions and recommendations by the ESRB, and repealing Decision ESRB/2014/2
(ESRB/2015/4)
(2016/C 97/12)
THE GENERAL BOARD OF THE EUROPEAN SYSTEMIC RISK BOARD,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1092/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010 on European Union macro-prudential oversight of the financial system and establishing a European Systemic Risk Board ( 1 ) , and in particular Article 3 thereof,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions and investment firms and amending Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 ( 2 ) , and in particular Article 458 thereof,
Having regard to Directive 2013/36/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on access to the activity of credit institutions and the prudential supervision of credit institutions and investment firms, amending Directive 2002/87/EC and repealing Directives 2006/48/EC and 2006/49/EC ( 3 ) , and in particular Articles 133, 134, 138 and 139 thereof,
Having regard to Recommendation ESRB/2015/1 of the European Systemic Risk Board of 11 December 2015 on recognising and setting countercyclical buffer rates for exposures to third countries ( 4 ) , and in particular recommendation A, recommendation B(3) and recommendation C thereof,
Having regard to Recommendation ESRB/2015/2 of the European Systemic Risk Board of 15 December 2015 on the assessment of cross-border effects of and voluntary reciprocity for macroprudential policy measures ( 5 ) , and in particular recommendations B to D thereof,
Having regard to Decision ESRB/2011/1 of the European Systemic Risk Board of 20 January 2011 adopting the Rules of Procedure of the European Systemic Risk Board ( 6 ) , and in particular Article 6 thereof,
Having regard to Decision ESRB/2015/3 of the European Systemic Risk Board of 11 December 2015 on the assessment of materiality of third countries for the Union’s banking system in relation to the recognition and setting of countercyclical buffer rates ( 7 ) , and in particular Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>The European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB) is responsible for macroprudential oversight within the Union. In this regard, the ESRB aims to contribute to the prevention or mitigation of systemic risks to financial stability in the Union, including risks that stem from outside the Union. As part of this task, the ESRB works to avoid regulatory arbitrage and cross-border leakages by ensuring that the same or equivalent macroprudential requirements apply to the same risks across the Union. To ensure the effectiveness of macroprudential policy measures, the ESRB considers three tasks as being of particular importance. These tasks are mandated by Union law and/or follow from Regulation (EU) No 1092/2010.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>First, the ESRB is mandated by Article 133 of Directive 2013/36/EU and Article 458 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 to assess the appropriateness of macroprudential policy measures before they are adopted by the Member States or the European Central Bank (ECB).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>Second, the ESRB assesses the potential adverse cross-border spillover effects of specific macroprudential policy measures and, if a reciprocation request has been received from the relevant activating authority, evaluates whether specific macroprudential policy measures taken by the Member States should be reciprocated across the Union in accordance with the framework set out in Recommendation ESRB/2015/2 of the European Systemic Risk Board. Pursuant to Article 134 of Directive 2013/36/EU and Article 458 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, Member States may ask the ESRB to issue recommendations to other Member States requiring reciprocation of their macroprudential policy measures. In accordance with its mandate, the ESRB may also recommend the reciprocation of measures whose reciprocation is subject to national discretion.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>Third, the ESRB contributes to achieving coherence across the Union for countercyclical capital buffer (CCB) rates applying to exposures to third countries. It is specifically mandated by Article 138 of Directive 2013/36/EU to issue recommendations with a view to ensuring that such CCB rates are sufficient to protect Union institutions from the risk of excessive credit growth in third countries. According to Article 139 of Directive 2013/36/EU, the ESRB may issue recommendations to achieve coherence across Member States when they exercise the powers granted by that Article in the area of setting and recognising CCB rates for exposures to third countries.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>In relation to its first task of assessing the appropriateness of certain macroprudential policy measures prior to their adoption, in 2014 the ESRB established an Assessment Team mandated with analysing these measures and preparing opinions and recommendations. Since the ESRB’s second and third tasks have a number of aspects in common with its first task, it would be advisable to extend the mandate of the existing Assessment Team to cover all three tasks. In view of the Assessment Team’s extended mandate it would then also be necessary to amend the composition of the Assessment Team to encompass a wider range of expertise. Furthermore, the terms of office for certain members of the Assessment Team, appointed in accordance with Decision ESRB/2014/2 of the European Systemic Risk Board<a> (<span>8</span>)</a>, need to continue until the expiration of the relevant terms of office.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>To enable the ESRB to discharge these three tasks, the relevant authorities are recommended to notify the ESRB of macroprudential policy measures, including those that go beyond the requirements set out in Union law. These notification requirements are set out in Articles 129(2), 130(2), 131(7) and (12), 133, 134(2), 136(7) and 160 of Directive 2013/36/EU as well as Article 99(7) and Article 458 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013. Moreover, Recommendation ESRB/2015/2 recommends that the relevant authorities notify the ESRB of all adopted macroprudential policy measures.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>The operating procedures of the Assessment Team for each of its three tasks must reflect the different timelines by which the ESRB is required to discharge its respective tasks. In particular, the ESRB will deliver its opinions or recommendations on the measure in question within one month of receiving a notification, in accordance with Article 133 of Directive 2013/36/EU and Article 458 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013. The ESRB will aim to amend Recommendation ESRB/2015/2 within three months of being notified of such measures. If the ESRB considers that action on the CCB rate applying to exposures to a specific third country is needed, it will aim to issue a recommendation within three months of having become aware of a potential risk from excessive credit growth in the third country concerned.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>Decision ESRB/2014/2 needs to be repealed and replaced by this Decision in order to include the two additional tasks for the Assessment Team and the corresponding changes to its composition,</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

The ESRB Secretariat shall publish the macroprudential policy measures that the relevant authorities have adopted, published and notified to the ESRB. The notifying authority may request, and the Head of the ESRB Secretariat may approve, that for reasons of financial stability these measures should not be published.
2. The opinions and recommendations issued in accordance with this Decision, as well as any amendments to them, shall be published on the ESRB’s website following their approval by the General Board. The notifying authority may request, and the ESRB may decide, that for reasons of financial stability, these opinions, recommendations or any amendments to them should not be published. Public recommendations, including amendments to them, addressed to the relevant authorities in all Member States shall be published in the Official Journal of the European Union .
Article 4
ESRB opinions and recommendations on national macroprudential policy measures
1. This Article shall apply to opinions and recommendations within the meaning of Article 1(2)(a).
2. Once a notification has been received pursuant to Article 133 of Directive 2013/36/EU or Article 458 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, the ESRB Secretariat shall immediately submit it to members of the General Board and to the Assessment Team via Darwin.
3. Within five ECB working days following the receipt of a notification, as referred to in paragraph 2, members of the General Board may raise material concerns regarding any negative externalities such as adverse cross-border spillover effects of the macroprudential policy measure notified. These members may also indicate that their authority would like to participate in the Assessment Team, as an observer, if it is not yet represented. To ensure a smooth and efficient process, members shall raise, insofar as is possible, such material concerns in English.
4. Within 12 ECB working days following the receipt of a notification, in accordance with paragraph 2, the Assessment Team shall prepare an assessment of and a draft opinion or recommendation on the appropriateness of the macroprudential policy measure having regard to the relevant requirements under Directive 2013/36/EU and Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 from a macroprudential and financial stability perspective.
5. As soon as it is finalised by the Assessment Team, the ESRB Secretariat shall immediately submit the draft opinion or recommendation, via Darwin, to all members of the General Board for consideration via written procedure. Within four ECB working days following the day of submission, members of the General Board may provide comments on the draft opinion or recommendation prior to taking a General Board decision.
6. Within two ECB working days following the day by which comments from members of the General Board are due, the Assessment Team shall consider whether the draft opinion or recommendation should be revised in the light of those comments and shall submit, via the ESRB Secretariat, the final draft opinion or recommendation to the General Board.
7. Based on the assessment and draft prepared by the Assessment Team, the General Board shall take a decision on the draft opinion or recommendation. Unless a General Board meeting is convened in accordance with the Rules of Procedure of the ESRB, the decision by the General Board shall be taken by written procedure, in which case the members of the General Board shall be given at least five ECB working days to cast their vote. The decision by the General Board shall be taken at least one ECB working day prior to the expiry of the one-month period specified in Article 133(14) of Directive 2013/36/EU or Article 458(4) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013.
8. If, following a request by the ESRB to the notifying authorities for further information, the information received still does not contain all relevant information needed to assess the appropriateness of the intended measure, including its compliance with the relevant requirements under Directive 2013/36/EU and Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, the ESRB may provide an opinion stating that it is not possible to assess conformity with the requirements of Directive 2013/36/EU and Regulation (EU) No 575/2013. The ESRB may also issue a negative opinion or recommendation, as appropriate.
Article 5
ESRB recommendation on the reciprocity of macroprudential policy measures
1. This Article shall apply to amendments to Recommendation ESRB/2015/2 within the meaning of Article 1(2)(b).
2.

In this case, the draft amendment of Recommendation ESRB/2015/2 shall request reciprocation of that measure by all other Member States.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
5. If an ATC written procedure is necessary following the meeting of the ATC, at which the reciprocation of the measure was discussed, or in accordance with paragraph 4(b), the members of the ATC may provide comments on the draft recommendation within five ECB working days following the day of transmission via Darwin.
6. Within five ECB working days following either the day that comments from the ATC are due or the day of the ATC meeting, at which the reciprocation of the measure was discussed, the ESRB Secretariat shall submit — if applicable — the draft amendment of Recommendation ESRB/2015/2 to the General Board for consultation via Darwin.

3. Within five ECB working days following the day on which one of the cases set out in paragraph 2 materialises, the ESRB Secretariat shall submit all relevant information to members of the ATC, the General Board and the Assessment Team, via Darwin. The Chair of the Assessment Team will decide if and when to notify the relevant third-country authority with a view to inviting a representative to join the Assessment Team as an observer.
4. Within five ECB working days following the transmission of the information referred to in paragraph 3, members of the General Board may demonstrate to the ESRB that their Member State has material exposures to the third country in question, and indicate that they would like to participate in the Assessment Team as observers, if their authority is not represented. To ensure a smooth and efficient process, members shall provide, insofar as is possible, relevant information to the ESRB in English.
5. Within 25 ECB working days following the transmission of the information referred to in paragraph 4, the Assessment Team shall prepare an assessment of the need for adopting a recommendation on specific third-country CCB rates that apply to the third country concerned. If the Assessment Team deems that a recommendation is necessary, the assessment shall be accompanied by a draft recommendation. The ESRB Secretariat shall submit the assessment and — if applicable — the draft recommendation to a meeting of the ATC for discussion or via Darwin to the ATC for written procedure.
6. Within five ECB working days following the day of submission via written procedure, members of the ATC may provide comments on the assessment and — if applicable — on the draft recommendation.
7. Within five ECB working days following either the day that comments from the ATC are due or the day of the ATC meeting, the ESRB Secretariat shall submit the assessment and — if applicable — the draft recommendation to the General Board for consultation via Darwin.
8. Within five ECB working days following the day of submission, the members of the General Board may provide comments on the assessment and — if applicable — the draft recommendation.
9. If the Assessment Team deemed that a recommendation was needed and the General Board consultation has not raised any substantial comments, the ESRB Secretariat shall submit the final draft recommendation within five ECB working days following the day by which comments from the members of the General Board were due, either to the General Board via a written procedure for approval, or for approval during a General Board meeting.
10. If the General Board consultation raised substantial comments, the ESRB Secretariat will bring the issue to the next meeting of the General Board for discussion.
11. The General Board may take a decision on the final draft recommendation by means of a written procedure or during the General Board meeting in accordance with Article 6 of Decision ESRB/2011/1.
12. The procedure described in paragraphs 3 to 11 may be shortened if the decision by the ESRB on specific third-country CCB rates for exposures to a particular third country is requested as a matter of urgency. The Chair of the Assessment Team may decide to shorten the abovementioned process, at the request of the notifying authority and/or based on the nature of the underlying risk to the banking system of the Union.
Article 7
Assessment Team
1. The Assessment Team shall prepare assessments of and draft opinions or recommendations on macroprudential policy measures, on reciprocity of macroprudential policy measures and on third-country CCB rates. The Assessment Team’s members, as well as any observers, shall have a sufficient level of seniority, both from a technical and a policy perspective.
2. The Chair of the Assessment Team shall be the Head of the ESRB Secretariat or his/her designated alternate.
3. The Assessment Team shall comprise: (a) two representatives from the ESRB Secretariat including the Chair of the Assessment Team; (b) one representative from the supervisory function of the ECB; (c) one representative from the macroprudential function of the ECB, (d) one representative from the European Commission; (e) one representative from the European Banking Authority (EBA); and (f) nine representatives each representing a national central bank (NCB) of a Member State. Representatives from the NCBs that are members of the Steering Committee, including representatives of NCBs from which the first Vice-Chair of the ESRB and the ATC Chair are appointed, shall be among the nine NCB representatives.
4. Based on nominations from the NCBs that are members of the General Board, the General Board shall appoint the nine NCB representatives referred to in paragraph 3. They shall be appointed for the same period as their authority’s representative in the Steering Committee or otherwise for a period of three years. If their authority is not represented in the Steering Committee, the NCB representatives on the Assessment Team may be reappointed.
5. All other members of the Assessment team shall be appointed for an unlimited period.
6. All ESRB member institutions represented in the Assessment Team may change their members or designate more than one person based on the expertise needed and the type of assessment to be conducted by the Assessment Team pursuant to Article 1(2). Such changes must be approved by the Chair of the Assessment Team. The composition of the Assessment Team shall ensure a balanced representation of Member States both from Member States in and outside the euro area.
7. Observers may participate in the Assessment Team with a view to contributing to the discussion. Observers may comprise up to two representatives per Member State, one from the NCB and one from the relevant authority or other authorities represented in the ESRB General Board, which either has raised material concerns in accordance with Article 4(3), has signalled that the relevant macroprudential policy measure would have significant adverse cross-border spillover effects at a national level in accordance with Article 5(3), or is from a Member State that has material exposures to the third country in question in accordance with Article 6(4). Members of the General Board shall coordinate national representation in the Assessment Team with the relevant national authorities, if they are not represented in the General Board and the measure being discussed is within their mandate. When a recommendation or opinion is prepared in accordance with Article 133(14) and (15) of Directive 2013/36/EU and Article 458(4) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, representatives from the Commission and the EBA shall be observers. Observers of the Assessment Team may also comprise up to two representatives from a Member State that has notified a macroprudential policy measure and/or requested reciprocity of a macroprudential policy measure, one from the relevant NCB and one from the national relevant authority. Representatives from third countries, whose CCB rates are discussed, may also be invited as observers, in which case they shall be subject to confidentiality agreements.
8. Where, pursuant to Article 5(2) of Council Regulation (EU) No 1024/2013 ( 9 ) , the ECB, instead of a national authority, notifies a macroprudential policy measure at national level, the ECB shall be represented by two observers and each Member State concerned shall be represented by two observers designated according to the same procedure, as described in paragraph 7.
9. To avoid conflicts of interest in the assessment of macroprudential policy measures under Article 1(2)(a), the status of Assessment Team members shall temporarily cease, without those members being replaced, for representatives of Member States or the ECB in all cases where the relevant authorities of the Member State concerned or the ECB have notified a macroprudential policy measure or raised material concerns regarding the macroprudential policy measure or requested reciprocity of a macroprudential policy measure to be assessed by the Assessment Team.
10. Members of the Assessment Team shall prepare draft opinions or recommendations in accordance with Articles 4(4), 5(4) and 6(5) on which the General Board may take a vote. The Assessment Team shall strive to reach consensus among its members. Where circumstances so require, it may provide a majority and a minority view in the assessment it submits to the General Board.
Article 8
Transitional provisions
1. The nine NCB representatives appointed in accordance with Article 5(2) and 5(8) of Decision ESRB/2014/2 shall remain in place until the end of the initial terms of office referred to in Article 5(8) of Decision ESRB/2014/2.
2. Following the expiry of the initial two-year term of office on 27 January 2016, the four NCB representatives concerned shall be replaced by one representative from each of the four NCBs represented in the Steering Committee.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2021/120
of 2 February 2021
authorising the placing on the market of partially defatted rapeseed powder from Brassica rapa L. and Brassica napus L. as a novel food under Regulation (EU) 2015/2283 of the European Parliament and of the Council and amending Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/2470
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2015 on novel foods, amending Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Regulation (EC) No 258/97 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1852/2001 ( 1 ) , and in particular Article 12 thereof,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>Regulation (EU) 2015/2283 provides that only novel foods authorised and included in the Union list may be placed on the market within the Union.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>On 31 December 2018, the company Avena Nordic Grain Oy (‘the applicant’) submitted an application to the Commission in accordance with Article 10(1) of Regulation (EU) 2015/2283 to place partially defatted rapeseed powder from<span>Brassica rapa</span> L. and<span>Brassica napus</span> L. low cultivars (00), on the Union market as a novel food. The applicant requested for the partially defatted rapeseed powder from<span>Brassica rapa</span> L. and<span>Brassica napus</span> L. to be used in cereal bars, muesli and similar mixed breakfast cereals, extruded breakfast cereal products, snacks other than chips and similar, brown gluten-free breads, bread and rolls with special ingredients added, multigrain bread and rolls, meat substitutes, and meat balls.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>The applicant also proposed that, because the protein fraction of the partially defatted rapeseed powder from<span>Brassica rapa</span> L. and<span>Brassica napus</span> L. is similar to that of the rapeseed protein authorised as a novel food by Commission Implementing Decision 2014/424/EU <a>(<span>3</span>)</a> for which the European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) had concluded <a>(<span>4</span>)</a> that a risk of sensitisation cannot be excluded and that it is likely that it can trigger allergic reactions in people allergic to mustard, the labelling of food products containing partially defatted rapeseed powder from<span>Brassica rapa</span> L. and<span>Brassica napus</span> L. is such to allow people who are allergic to mustard to avoid consumption of those foods.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>On 31 December 2018, the applicant also made a request to the Commission for the protection of proprietary data for a randomised double-blind, controlled, parallel group, 4-week intervention human clinical trial study, to assess the safety and tolerability of the novel food among healthy consumers <a>(<span>5</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>On 19 June 2019, the Commission requested the Authority to carry out an assessment of the partially defatted rapeseed powder from<span>Brassica rapa</span> L. and<span>Brassica napus</span> L. as a novel food in accordance with Article 10(3) of Regulation (EU) 2015/2283.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>On 30 June 2020, the Authority adopted its scientific opinion ‘Safety of rapeseed powder from<span>Brassica rapa</span> L. and<span>Brassica napus</span> L. as a novel food pursuant to Regulation (EC) 2015/2283’ <a>(<span>6</span>)</a> in accordance with the requirements of Article 11 of Regulation (EU) 2015/2283.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>In its scientific opinion, the Authority concluded that partially defatted rapeseed powder from<span>Brassica rapa</span> L. and<span>Brassica napus</span> L. is safe under the proposed conditions of use. However, it also concluded that the partially defatted rapeseed powder from<span>Brassica rapa</span> L. and<span>Brassica napus</span> L. rapeseed may trigger allergic reactions in people allergic to mustard. Therefore, that scientific opinion gives sufficient grounds to establish that partially defatted rapeseed powder from<span>Brassica rapa</span> L. and<span>Brassica napus</span> L., when used in cereal bars, muesli and similar mixed breakfast cereals, extruded breakfast cereal products, snacks other than chips and similar, brown gluten-free breads, bread and rolls with special ingredients added, multigrain bread and rolls, meat substitutes, and meat balls, and provided that the labelling of the foods containing partially defatted rapeseed powder from<span>Brassica rapa</span> L. and<span>Brassica napus</span> L. is such to allow people who are allergic to mustard to avoid consumption of those foods, complies with the authorisation requirements of Article 12(1) of Regulation (EU) 2015/2283.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>The opinion of the Authority and the composition and specification data submitted by the applicant also give sufficient grounds to include total carbohydrates in the novel food specification as this is an important nutritional component whose inclusion will complete the proximate profile of this novel food.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>In its scientific opinion, the Authority considered that it could have reached its conclusions on the safety of the partially defatted rapeseed powder from<span>Brassica rapa</span> L. and<span>Brassica napus</span> L. under the proposed conditions of use without the data claimed as proprietary by the applicant (a randomised double-blind, controlled, parallel-group, 4-week intervention, human clinical trial study, to assess the safety and tolerability of the novel food among healthy consumers).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>Therefore, the Commission considers that the requirements laid down in Article 26(2) of Regulation (EU) 2015/2283 have not been fulfilled, and the requested protection of the proprietary data included in the application cannot be granted. It is therefore appropriate that the authorisation of the partially defatted rapeseed powder from<span>Brassica rapa</span> L. and<span>Brassica napus</span> L. as a novel food and its inclusion in the Union list of authorised novel foods should contain only the information referred to in Article 9(3) of Regulation (EU) 2015/2283.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(12)</p></td><td><p>The Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/2470 should be therefore be amended accordingly.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
1. Partially defatted rapeseed powder from Brassica rapa L. and Brassica napus L. as specified in the Annex to this Regulation shall be included in the Union list of authorised novel foods established in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/2470.
2. The entry in the Union list referred to in paragraph 1 shall include the conditions of use and labelling requirements laid down in the Annex.
Article 2
The Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/2470 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.

of 9 June 2016
authorising enhanced cooperation in the area of jurisdiction, applicable law and the recognition and enforcement of decisions on the property regimes of international couples, covering both matters of matrimonial property regimes and the property consequences of registered partnerships
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 329(1) thereof,
Having regard to the requests made by the Kingdom of Belgium, the Republic of Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, the Federal Republic of Germany, the Hellenic Republic, the Kingdom of Spain, the French Republic, the Republic of Croatia, the Italian Republic, the Republic of Cyprus, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, Malta, the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Republic of Austria, the Portuguese Republic, the Republic of Slovenia, the Republic of Finland and the Kingdom of Sweden,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Having regard to the consent of the European Parliament ( 1 ) ,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>The Union has set itself the objective of maintaining and developing an area of freedom, security and justice in which the free movement of persons is ensured.

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>Pursuant to Article 81 of the Treaty on the Functioning of European Union (TFEU), those measures are to include promoting the compatibility of the rules applicable in the Member States concerning conflict of laws, including measures concerning family law with cross-border implications.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>On 16 March 2011, the Commission adopted a proposal for a Council Regulation on jurisdiction, applicable law and the recognition and enforcement of decisions in matters of matrimonial property regimes, and a proposal for a Council Regulation on jurisdiction, applicable law and the recognition and enforcement of decisions regarding the property consequences of registered partnerships.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>At its meeting of 3 December 2015 the Council concluded that it would not be possible to reach an agreement within a reasonable period by the Union as a whole for the adoption of the regulations.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

The Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Bulgaria, Austria and Finland addressed the same requests to the Commission by letters dated 28 January 2016, 2 February 2016, 9 February 2016, 16 February 2016 and 26 February respectively. By letter to the Commission dated 18 March 2016, Cyprus indicated its wish to participate in the establishment of the enhanced cooperation; Cyprus reiterated this wish during the work of the Council. In total, 18 Member States have requested such enhanced cooperation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>The enhanced cooperation should provide a clear and comprehensive legal framework in the area of the property regimes of international couples, covering both matrimonial property regimes and the property consequences of registered partnerships, in the participating Member States, ensure adequate solutions for citizens in terms of legal certainty, predictability and flexibility, and facilitate the circulation of decisions and authentic instruments between the participating Member States.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>In accordance with the Member States' requests for the establishment of enhanced cooperation, two substantive acts should implement enhanced cooperation, one concerning matrimonial property regimes and the other concerning the property consequences of registered partnerships.

This is not an area of exclusive competence of the Union.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>The requirement of last resort in Article 20(2) TEU is fulfilled in that the Council concluded on 3 December 2015 that the objectives of the proposed regulations could not be attained within a reasonable period by the Union as a whole.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>Enhanced cooperation in the area of jurisdiction, applicable law and the recognition and enforcement of decisions in the matter of property regimes of international couples, covering both matrimonial property regimes and the property consequences of registered partnerships, aims to develop judicial cooperation in civil matters having cross-border implications based on the principle of mutual recognition of judgments, and to ensure the compatibility of the rules applicable in the Member States concerning conflict of laws.

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(12)</p></td><td><p>Enhanced cooperation in the area of jurisdiction, applicable law and the recognition and enforcement of decisions in the matter of property regimes of international couples, covering both matrimonial property regimes and the property consequences of registered partnerships, complies with the Treaties and Union law, and it does not undermine the internal market or economic, social and territorial cohesion. It does not constitute a barrier to or discrimination in trade between Member States and does not distort competition between them.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(13)</p></td><td><p>In particular, enhanced cooperation in the area of jurisdiction, applicable law and the recognition and enforcement of decisions in the matter of property regimes of international couples, covering both matrimonial property regimes and the property consequences of registered partnerships, complies with Union law on judicial cooperation in civil matters, in that enhanced cooperation does not affect the<span>acquis</span> in this area.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

The courts of the non-participating Member States will continue to apply their existing domestic rules to determine the jurisdiction and applicable law and to the recognition and enforcement of decisions in the matter of property regimes of international couples, covering both matrimonial property regimes and the property consequences of registered partnerships.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

The threaded end of the product is to be screwed into a predrilled hole in one part of the furniture. The head is to be inserted into a predrilled hole in another part of the furniture.

amending Council Directive 2008/90/EC as regards the extension of the derogation relating to import conditions for fruit plant propagating material and fruit plants intended for fruit production from third countries
(notified under document C(2019) 254)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 2008/90/EC of 29 September 2008 on the marketing of fruit plant propagating material and fruit plants intended for fruit production ( 1 ) , and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 12(2) thereof,

COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2023/1669
of 16 June 2023
supplementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1369 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to the energy labelling of smartphones and slate tablets
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2017/1369 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 July 2017 setting a framework for energy labelling and repealing Directive 2010/30/EU ( 1 ) , and in particular Article 16(1) thereof,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>Regulation (EU) 2017/1369 empowers the Commission to adopt delegated acts as regards the labelling or re-scaling of the labelling of product groups representing significant potential for energy savings and, where relevant, other resources.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>The Commission has carried out a preparatory study to analyse the technical, environmental and economic aspects of mobile phones, smartphones and slate tablets. The study was conducted in close cooperation with stakeholders and interested parties in the Union and third countries, and the results have been made publicly available.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>The preparatory study concluded that the scope for reducing the energy consumption of smartphones and slate tablets is substantial. It also concluded that the battery lifetime and consequently the product lifetime of smartphones and slate tablets can significantly be improved by means of an energy labelling scheme. Smartphones and slate tablets should therefore be covered by energy labelling requirements. An energy label is however currently not seen as appropriate for cordless phones and feature phones, given the moderate spread in the energy efficiency of products available on the market.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>In total, smartphones and slate tablets consumed 36,1 TWh of primary energy in 2020, including all life cycle phases. The preparatory study showed that, without regulatory action, these values are likely to increase to 36,5 TWh of primary energy in 2030. The combined effect of this Regulation and Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/1670 <a>(<span>2</span>)</a> is expected to limit the energy consumption of smartphones and slate tablets in 2030 to 23,3 TWh, meaning 35 % of primary energy consumption is saved compared to what would happen if no measures were taken.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>Smartphones and slate tablets that are displayed at trade fairs should bear the energy label if the first unit of the model has already been placed on the market or is placed on the market at the trade fair.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>The relevant product parameters should be measured or calculated using reliable, accurate and reproducible methods. Those methods should take into account recognised state-of-the-art measurement methods including, where available, harmonised standards adopted by the European standardisation bodies, as listed in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council <a>(<span>3</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>The energy efficiency index of a smartphone or a slate tablet should be calculated with the operating system version installed on the product model at the date of placement on the market. Until the date of end of placement on the market, if an updated version of the operating system is installed on the same product model, the energy efficiency index should be recalculated and, where applicable, the value of any other parameter of the label and of the product information sheet should be reassessed. Any change in the energy efficiency index, or where applicable in any other parameter value part of the label and of the product information sheet, should be considered relevant in respect to Article 4(4) of Regulation (EU) 2017/1369, in particular when this change is detrimental for the end users.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>To facilitate compliance checks, the content of the technical documentation referred to in Annex VI should be sufficient to allow market surveillance authorities to check the values published on the label and in the product information sheet.

1.3. Calculation
The battery endurance (END device ) in hours equals to the execution time of the specified test sequence:
END device = END test
where END test is the run-time of the test in hours, rounded to two decimal places.
The energy efficiency index (EEI) of a smartphone or slate tablet shall be calculated using the following equation and rounded to two decimal places:
EEI =
Where:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>EEI is the Energy Efficiency Index in 1/W;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>U<span>nom</span> is the nominal voltage in V;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>C<span>rated</span> is the rated battery capacity in mAh.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
The EEI shall be calculated with the operating system version installed on the product model at the date of placement on the market.
2. MEASUREMENT OF THE BATTERY ENDURANCE IN CYCLES
Batteries of smartphones and slate tablets shall be tested for battery endurance in cycles until the battery has, in a fully charged state, a remaining capacity of at least 80 % of the rated capacity; the battery shall be tested according to the default charging algorithms implemented by the manufacturer.
The resulting number of cycles shall be rounded down to full hundreds as ‘≥ x00’ and stated in ranges as ≥ 800, ≥ 900, ≥ 1 000, ≥ 1 100, ≥ 1 200, ≥ 1 300, ≥ 1 400.
The battery endurance in cycles shall be calculated with the operating system version installed on the product model at the date of placement on the market.
3. MEASUREMENT OF THE INGRESS PROTECTION
Ingress protection against particle and moisture ingress shall be stated as an IP code, corresponding to the levels listed in Table 5. Tests shall be performed without protective cover.

4. RESISTANCE TO ACCIDENTAL DROPS OR REPEATED FREE FALL RELIABILITY
Resistance to accidental drops or repeated free fall reliability is measured through the number of falls without defect in the repeated free fall test. The repeated free fall tests shall be performed with five units of each model for each of the applicable test cases. The resistance to accidental drops is the number of falls which have been passed by at least four out of the five units under test. The number of falls per unit shall be determined with the following test conditions:

5. METHOD FOR THE CALCULATION OF THE REPAIRABILITY INDEX OF SMARTPHONES AND SLATE TABLETS
The Repairability Index is an aggregated and normalised score, as a calculated value derived from six scoring parameters where:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>S<span>DD</span> is the ‘Disassembly Depth’ score.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>S<span>F</span> is the ‘Fasteners (type)’ score.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>S<span>T</span> is the ‘Tools (type)’ score.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>S<span>SP</span> is the ‘Spare Parts’ score.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>S<span>SU</span> is the ‘Software Updates (duration)’ score.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>S<span>RI</span> is the ‘Repair Information’ score.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
The same scoring methodology shall apply to both smartphones and slate tablets. The Repairability Index (R) shall be calculated as follows:
R = (S DD *0,25)+(S F *0,15)+ (S T *0,15)+ (S SP *0,15)+(S SU *0,15)+(S RI *0,15)
The ‘Disassembly Depth’ (S DD ), ‘Fasteners (type)’ (S F ) and ‘Tools (type)’ (S T ) scores are based on the aggregation of the following priority part level scores:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>BAT is the battery.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>DA is the display assembly.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>BC is the back cover or back cover assembly.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>FFC is the front-facing camera assembly.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>RFC is the rear-facing camera assembly.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>EC is the external charging port.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>BUT is the mechanical button.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>MIC is the main microphone(s).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>SPK is the speaker.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>FM is the hinge assembly or the mechanical display folding mechanism.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
If any of the priority parts listed above is present in a product more than once, only the one which delivers the lowest score shall be considered in the calculation of the ‘Disassembly Depth’ (S DD ), ‘Fasteners (type)’ (S F ) and ‘Tools (type)’ (S T ) scores. If a priority part is not present in the product, the highest point level for each score shall be considered for this part.
The ‘Disassembly Depth’ (S DD ) score shall be calculated as follows:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(a)</p></td><td><p>if the hinge assembly or the mechanical display folding mechanism are not present in the product, the following formula shall be used:</p><p>S<span>DD</span> = (DD<span>BAT</span>*0,30)+ (DD<span>DA</span>*0,30)+ (DD<span>BC</span>*0,10)+(DD<span>FFC</span>*0,05)+(DD<span>RFC</span>*0,05)+(DD<span>EC</span> *0,05)+(DD<span>BUT</span>*0,05)+(DD<span>MIC</span>*0,05)+(DD<span>SPK</span> *0,05)</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(b)</p></td><td><p>if the hinge assembly or the mechanical display folding mechanism are present, the following formula shall be used:</p><p>S<span>DD</span> = (DD<span>BAT</span>*0,25)+ (DD<span>DA</span>*0,25)+ (DD<span>BC</span>*0,09)+(DD<span>FFC</span>*0,04)+(DD<span>RFC</span>*0,04)+(DD<span>EC</span> *0,04)+(DD<span>BUT</span>*0,04)+(DD<span>MIC</span>*0,04)+(DD<span>SPK</span> *0,04)+ (DD<span>FM</span>*0,17).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
Disassembly Depth (DD) assessment at part level
The Disassembly Depth score (DD i ) for each priority part i (DD BAT ; DD DA , DD BC , DD FFC , DD RFC, DD EC, DD BUT , DD MIC , DD SPK, DD FM ) shall be calculated based on the number of steps required to remove a part from a product, without damaging the product. The counting of the steps for each part starts from the product fully assembled, with the charger disconnected and any SIM card installed. Points ranging from 1 to 5 are assigned as follows:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>DD<span>i</span> ≤ 2 steps = 5 pt.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>5 steps ≥ DD<span>i</span> > 2 steps = 4 pt.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>10 steps ≥ DD<span>i</span> > 5 steps = 3 pt.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>15 steps ≥ DD<span>i</span> > 10 steps = 2 pt.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>DD<span>i</span> > 15 steps = 1 pt.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
For the calculation of disassembly steps, the following rules shall apply:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>the disassembly depth count is completed when the target part is separated and individually accessible.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>where multiple tools need to be used simultaneously, the use of each tool counts as a separate step.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>operations related to cleaning, removing traces or heating are counted as steps.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>the disassembly depth shall be calculated on the basis of the repair and maintenance information, and of the description of the disassembly steps for each priority part given in the technical documentation;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>where remote notification or authorisation of serial numbers is necessary for the full functionality of the spare part and the device, each of these actions is counted as five additional disassembly steps.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
The ‘Fasteners (type)’ (S F ) score is calculated as follow:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(a)</p></td><td><p>for smartphones or slate tablets, except foldable ones, the following formula shall be used:</p><p>S<span>F</span>=(F<span>BAT</span>*0,30)+ (F<span>DA</span>*0,30)+ (F<span>BC</span>*0,10)+(F<span>FFC</span>*0,05)+(F<span>RFC</span> *0,05)+(F<span>EC</span> *0,05)+(F<span>BUT</span>*0,05)+(F<span>MIC</span>*0,05)+(F<span>SPK</span>*0,05)</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(b)</p></td><td><p>for foldable smartphones or foldable slate tablets, the following formula shall be used:</p><p>S<span>F</span>=(F<span>BAT</span>*0,25)+ (F<span>DA</span>*0,25)+ (F<span>BC</span>*0,09)+(F<span>FFC</span>*0,04)+(F<span>RFC</span> *0,04)+(F<span>EC</span> *0,04)+(F<span>BUT</span>*0,04)+(F<span>MIC</span>*0,04)+(F<span>SPK</span>*0,04)+(F<span>FM</span>*0,17)</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
Fasteners (type) (F) assessment at part level:
The ‘Fasteners (type)’ scores (F i ) for each priority part i (F BAT , F DA , F BC , F FFC , F RFC, F EC, F BUT , F MIC , F SPK, F FM ) are assigned according to the level of removability and reusability of the fasteners used in the device assembly. Points ranging from 1 to 5 are assigned as follows:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>Reusable Fasteners = 5 pt.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>Resupplied Fasteners = 3 pt.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>Removable Fasteners = 1 pt.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
The assessment of the type of fasteners is based on the disassembly process to remove the specific priority part, starting from the previous priority part in disassembly sequence already removed.
In case different types of fasteners are encountered in the disassembly of a priority part, the worst score shall be considered.
The F i scores shall be calculated on the basis of the repair and maintenance information, and of the description of the fasteners for each priority part given in the technical documentation.
The ‘Tools (type)’ (S T ) score shall be calculated as follows:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(a)</p></td><td><p>for smartphones or slate tablets, except foldable ones, the following formula shall be used:</p><p>S<span>T</span>=(T<span>BAT</span>*0,30)+(T<span>SCR</span>*0,30)+(T<span>BC</span>*0,10)+(T<span>FFC</span>*0,05)+(T<span>RFC</span>*0,05)+(T<span>EC</span>*0,05)+(T<span>BUT</span>*0,05)+(T<span>MIC</span>*0,05)+(T<span>SPK</span>*0,05)</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

Tools (type) (T) assessment at part level
The ‘Tools (type)’ scores (T i ) for each priority part i (T BAT , T DA , T BC , T FFC , T RFC , T EC , T BUT , T MIC , T SPK and T FM ) are assigned according to the complexity and availability of the tools needed for its replacement. Points ranging from 1 to 5 are assigned as follows:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>No tools = 5 pt;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>Basic tools = 4 pt.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>Commercially available tools = 1 pt.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
The assessment of the type of tools is based on the disassembly process to remove the specific priority part, starting from the previous priority part in disassembly sequence already removed.
Where different types of tools are needed for the disassembly of a priority part, the lowest score shall be considered.
The T i scores shall be calculated on the basis of the repair and maintenance information, and of the description of the tools for each priority part given in the technical documentation.

ANNEX IX
Verification procedure for market surveillance purposes
The verification tolerances defined in this Annex relate only to the verification by Member State authorities of the declared values and shall not be used by the supplier as an allowed tolerance to establish the values in the technical documentation or in interpreting those values with a view to achieving compliance or to communicate better performance by any means. The values and classes published on the label or in the product information sheet shall not be more favourable for the supplier than the values declared in the technical documentation.
Where a model has been designed to be able to detect it is being tested (e.g. by recognizing the test conditions or test cycle), and to react specifically by automatically altering its performance during the test with the objective of reaching a more favourable level for any of the parameters specified in this Regulation or included in the technical documentation or included in any of the documentation provided, the model and all equivalent models shall be considered not compliant.
The EEI, the battery endurance in cycles and the battery endurance per cycle for compliance verification shall be calculated with the operating system version installed on the unit(s) at the date of their placing on the market.
As part of verifying the compliance of a product model with the requirements laid down in this Regulation, the authorities of the Member States shall apply the following procedure:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>The Member State authorities shall verify one single unit of the model pursuant to points 2(a), (b) and (c), except for repeated free fall reliability tests, where five units of a model shall be verified pursuant to point 2(d), and except for battery endurance in cycles tests, where five units of a model shall be verified pursuant to point 2(e).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

on the 2020 National Reform Programme of Romania and delivering a Council opinion on the 2020 Convergence Programme of Romania
(2020/C 282/23)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Articles 121(2) and 148(4) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1466/97 of 7 July 1997 on the strengthening of the surveillance of budgetary positions and the surveillance and coordination of economic policies ( 1 ) , and in particular Article 9(2) thereof,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1176/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 November 2011 on the prevention and correction of macroeconomic imbalances ( 2 ) , and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,
Having regard to the recommendation of the European Commission,
Having regard to the resolutions of the European Parliament,
Having regard to the conclusions of the European Council,
Having regard to the opinion of the Employment Committee,
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Financial Committee,
Having regard to the opinion of the Social Protection Committee,
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic Policy Committee,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>On 17 December 2019, the Commission adopted the Annual Sustainable Growth Strategy, marking the start of the 2020 European Semester for economic policy coordination. It took due account of the European Pillar of Social Rights, proclaimed by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on 17 November 2017. On 17 December 2019, on the basis of Regulation (EU) No 1176/2011, the Commission also adopted the Alert Mechanism Report, in which it identified Romania as one of the Member States for which an in-depth review would be carried out.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>The 2020 country report for Romania was published on 26 February 2020. It assessed Romania’s progress in addressing the country-specific recommendations adopted by the Council on 9 July 2019 <a>(<span>3</span>)</a> (‘the 2019 country-specific recommendations’), the follow-up given to the country-specific recommendations adopted in previous years and Romania’s progress towards its national Europe 2020 targets. It also included an in-depth review under Article 5 of Regulation (EU) No 1176/2011, the results of which were also published on 26 February 2020. The Commission’s analysis led it to conclude that Romania is experiencing macroeconomic imbalances. In particular, vulnerabilities are linked to cost-competitiveness and a widening current-account deficit in a context of an expansionary fiscal policy and an unpredictable business environment.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>On 11 March 2020, the World Health Organization officially declared the COVID-19 outbreak a global pandemic. It is a severe public health emergency for citizens, societies and economies. It is putting national health systems under severe strain, disrupting global supply chains, causing volatility in financial markets, triggering consumer demand shocks and having negative effects across various sectors. It is threatening people’s jobs and incomes as well as companies’ business. It has delivered a major economic shock that is already having serious repercussions in the Union. On 13 March 2020, the Commission adopted a communication calling for a coordinated economic response to the crisis, involving all actors at national and Union level.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>Several Member States have declared a state of emergency or introduced emergency measures. Any emergency measures should be strictly proportionate, necessary, limited in time, and in line with European and international standards. They should be subject to democratic oversight and independent judicial review.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>On 20 March 2020, the Commission adopted a communication on the activation of the general escape clause of the Stability and Growth Pact. The general escape clause, as set out in Articles 5(1), 6(3), 9(1) and 10(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1466/97 and Articles 3(5) and 5(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1467/97 <a>(<span>4</span>)</a>, facilitates the coordination of budgetary policies in times of severe economic downturn. In its communication of 20 March 2020, the Commission considered that, given the expected severe economic downturn resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the conditions for the activation of the general escape clause had been met and asked the Council to endorse this conclusion. On 23 March 2020, the ministers of finance of the Member States agreed with the assessment of the Commission. They agreed that the severe economic downturn requires a resolute, ambitious and coordinated response. The activation of the general escape clause allows for a temporary departure from the adjustment path towards the medium-term budgetary objective, provided that this does not endanger fiscal sustainability in the medium term. For the corrective arm, the Council may also decide, on a recommendation from the Commission, to adopt a revised fiscal trajectory. The general escape clause does not suspend the procedures of the Stability and Growth Pact. It allows Member States to depart from the budgetary requirements that would normally apply while enabling the Commission and the Council to undertake the necessary policy coordination measures within the framework of the Pact.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>Continued action is required to limit and control the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, strengthen the resilience of the national health systems, mitigate the socioeconomic consequences of the pandemic through supportive measures for business and households, and ensure adequate health and safety conditions at the workplace with a view to resuming economic activity. The Union should fully use the various tools at its disposal to support Member States’ efforts in those areas. In parallel, Member States and the Union should work together to prepare the measures necessary to bring about a return to the normal functioning of our societies and economies and to sustainable growth, integrating, inter alia, the green transition and the digital transformation, and drawing lessons from the crisis.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>The COVID-19 crisis has highlighted the flexibility that the internal market offers to adapt to extraordinary situations. However, in order to ensure a swift and smooth transition to the recovery phase and the free movement of goods, services and workers, exceptional measures that prevent the internal market from functioning normally should be removed as soon as they are no longer indispensable. The current crisis has shown the need for crisis preparedness plans in the health sector. Improved purchasing strategies, diversified supply chains and strategic reserves of essential supplies are among the key elements for developing broader crisis preparedness plans.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>The Union legislator has already amended the relevant legislative frameworks by means of Regulations (EU) 2020/460 <a>(<span>5</span>)</a> and (EU) 2020/558 <a>(<span>6</span>)</a> of the European Parliament and of the Council to allow Member States to mobilise all unused resources from the European Structural and Investment Funds so they can address the exceptional effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Those amendments will provide additional flexibility, as well as simplified and streamlined procedures. To alleviate cash-flow pressures, Member States can also benefit from a 100 % co-financing rate from the Union budget in the 2020-2021 accounting year. Romania is encouraged to make full use of those possibilities to help the individuals and sectors most affected.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>The socioeconomic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic are likely to be unevenly distributed across Romanian regions because of significant investment and labour productivity gaps and different specialisation patterns. This entails a substantial risk of widening regional disparities within Romania, reversing the already observed trend of slightly reducing disparities between the capital city and the rest of the regions or between urban and rural areas. Combined with the risk of a temporary unravelling of the convergence process between Member States, the current situation calls for targeted policy responses.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>Romania submitted its 2020 National Reform Programme on 8 May 2020 and its 2020 Convergence Programme on 14 May 2020. In order to take account of their interlinkages, the two programmes have been assessed at the same time.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>Romania is currently in the corrective arm of the Stability and Growth Pact.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(12)</p></td><td><p>On 3 April 2020, the Council adopted Decision (EU) 2020/509 <a>(<span>7</span>)</a>, finding that an excessive deficit existed in Romania due to non-compliance with the deficit criterion in 2019. The finding was based on the updated fiscal targets by the government, which reflected the budget execution data for the year to date. The 2019 general government deficit outturn of 4,3 % of gross domestic product (GDP) confirmed the breach. The breach was the result of a continuous build-up of fiscal imbalances due to an expansionary fiscal policy since 2016, in a period of strong economic growth. Systematic and repeated derogations from national fiscal rules during that period rendered those rules largely ineffective. Moreover, Romania had repeatedly failed to take effective action in response to the Council’s recommendations made to it in the context of the significant deviation procedure. On 3 April 2020, the Council also issued a Recommendation <a>(<span>8</span>)</a> with a view to bringing an end to the situation of an excessive government deficit in Romania by 2022 at the latest.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(13)</p></td><td><p>The long-term sustainability of Romania’s public finances was already at risk prior to the COVID-19 outbreak, as a result of high budget deficits and the projected significant rise in ageing costs, in particular pensions. Old-age pensions were increased by 15 % in September 2019 and, based on a pension law adopted in summer 2019, are due to increase by 40 % in September 2020 and be recalculated upward in September 2021. Pension spending would thus increase substantially over the period 2020 to 2022. Fiscal sustainability risks are further heightened by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on economic activity and the fiscal effort required to cushion it. Prior fiscal policy decisions have left Romania with small fiscal buffers to deal with the outcome of the COVID-19 outbreak.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(14)</p></td><td><p>In its 2020 Convergence Programme, the government headline balance is planned to deteriorate from a deficit of 4,3 % of GDP in 2019 to a deficit of 6,7 % of GDP in 2020, while the general government debt-to-GDP ratio is expected to increase from 35,2 % in 2019 to 40,9 % in 2020. The macroeconomic and fiscal outlook is affected by high uncertainty because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, there are risks underlying the budgetary projections, namely some revenue items do not seem to be estimated in line with the underlying macroeconomic projections, while the moderation of some current expenditure items seem to be based on fiscal consolidation measures that are not specified in the Programme.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(15)</p></td><td><p>In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and as part of a coordinated Union approach, Romania has adopted timely budgetary measures to increase the capacity of its health system, contain the pandemic, and provide relief to those individuals and sectors that have been particularly affected. According to the 2020 Convergence Programme, those budgetary measures amounted to 1,2 % of GDP. The measures include a technical unemployment benefit to employees and similar benefits to other categories of worker, medical equipment and other expenditures to help fight COVID-19 and bonuses for employees in the health sector working with patients infected with COVID-19. In addition, the government has announced measures that, while not having a direct budgetary impact, will contribute to providing liquidity support to businesses. Those measures include tax deferrals, speeding up of value-added tax (VAT) reimbursements, loan guarantees for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), a temporary moratorium on the payment of bank loan instalments for households and SMEs, and a deferral of rent and utility bills for SMEs. Overall, the measures taken by the government of Romania are in line with the guidelines set out in the Commission ommunication of 13 March 2020.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(16)</p></td><td><p>Based on the Commission 2020 spring forecast under unchanged policies, Romania’s general government balance is forecast to be -9,2 % of GDP in 2020 and -11,4 % of GDP in 2021. The general government debt-to-GDP ratio is projected by the Commission to reach 46,2 % in 2020.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(17)</p></td><td><p>Romania declared a state of emergency on 16 March 2020. As of 25 March 2020, all schools and shops, except for those selling primary necessity products, were ordered to close and border-crossing restrictions came into force. Movement in public areas was allowed only in limited cases, with stricter measures for people above 65. Romania also introduced a ban on international travel to certain countries and put several cities into strict quarantine. This situation has taken a toll on the production sector of the economy, as the lockdown measures have had a severely negative impact on economic activity. In the industrial sector, several manufacturers shut down production in the second half of March, with strong spillover effects in key sectors, such as the automotive industry. Similar developments are observed in the retail and hospitality sectors. The aggregated effect will push the economy into a recession in 2020. The state of emergency ended on 14 May 2020, and Romania announced that it would gradually implement de-confinement measures. Starting on 15 May 2020, measures were introduced concerning the easing of movement inside cities, the partial reopening of commercial retailing and the mandatory use of protection masks in closed public and commercial spaces, public transport and workplaces. Some manufacturers from the automotive industry gradually resumed activity at the end of April and in early May 2020. The government is preparing further measures aimed at relaunching the economy.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(18)</p></td><td><p>The pandemic has put the health system under unprecedented pressure. The crisis hit a system characterised by structural weaknesses, such as low spending and unequal access to healthcare. In this context, improving the resilience of the health system and its capacity to respond to shocks represents a key challenge. As part of the immediate response, Romania purchased critical medical products and included COVID-19 related medical costs in the minimum benefit package for the uninsured. Considerable health workforce shortages, including of family physicians, as well as outdated medical facilities, lack of medical products, insufficient training for health workers and limited continuity and integration between different levels of care weaken the resilience of the health system. Reported unmet medical needs were on the rise already before the COVID-19 crisis and access to healthcare is likely to have deteriorated. The pandemic further exposed regional disparities and the gap in healthcare coverage for low-income groups and the elderly. In the longer run, population ageing and migration are challenges that put increasing pressure on the sustainability of the health system. In light of COVID-19, it is equally important to address structural issues, including the development of preventive, outpatient and community-based care with well-targeted public policy measures. Long-term investment will be needed to reinforce the Romanian health system by securing health workers and equipment, enhancing technological and applied research and improving the coverage and accessibility of health services to all citizens, also in non-urban areas, including through the use of e-health services.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(19)</p></td><td><p>Fast economic growth in recent years triggered an improvement in social conditions. Gross disposable household income increased by 5,7 % in 2019. The risk of poverty and social exclusion, at 31,2 % in 2019, was among the highest in the Union, though on a steadily declining path. However, the pandemic’s impact on the economy may lead to the deterioration of social conditions. Poverty and social exclusion, including child poverty, in-work poverty and income inequalities are expected to increase, with vulnerable groups such as non-standard workers, undeclared workers, the self-employed, Roma, people with disabilities, the elderly and the homeless among the most exposed. Coverage and adequacy of social protection measures and the effectiveness of the tax and benefit system in redistributing income remain limited. Children in rural areas and informal settlements have limited access to good-quality early childhood education and care, adequate nutrition, healthcare and housing. Social transfers have a very limited impact on reducing poverty and the social reference index used as a basis for most social benefits has not been updated since 2008. Adequacy of the minimum income support remains one of the lowest in the Union. Though adopted in 2016, the minimum inclusion income reform has been further postponed to 2021. Social and essential services remain largely insufficient, including in areas such as water and sanitation, energy and housing. Moreover, territorial distribution is uneven and characterised by significant rural-urban and regional disparities. This may limit the capacity to counteract the impact of the pandemic. The potential of the social economy to improve social conditions is still untapped.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(20)</p></td><td><p>Over 2019, labour market developments remained positive, but disparities between regions, rural and urban areas and socioeconomic groups persist. High levels of inactivity are registered, in particular for women, young people, the low-skilled, people with disabilities and older people. In the context of the COVID-19 outbreak, existing challenges are likely to deepen, together with rapidly increasing unemployment and inactivity. According to the Commission 2020 spring forecast, unemployment is expected to rise to 6,5 % in 2020 and recover to 5,4 % in 2021. Undeclared work remains a challenge and its negative impact might be exacerbated in the current context, underlining the need to support the transition into declared work. Therefore, timely tailor-made services addressing the needs of vulnerable groups and workers affected by the crisis are essential. In addition to the recently initiated technical unemployment scheme, developing access to short-time work schemes, promoting income-support measures and allowing for flexible working arrangements and teleworking for the workers affected, with the involvement of social partners, are crucial to strengthening the resilience of the labour market in the short and long term.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(21)</p></td><td><p>Persisting skills mismatches and skills shortages, underpinned by demographic developments and the limited labour market relevance of education and training, limited Romania’s economic growth potential even before the pandemic. The share of adults participating in learning activities, at 1,3 % in 2019, is one of the lowest in the Union. Low participation in early childhood education and care widens inequality of opportunities between pupils. The equity, inclusiveness and quality of education remain important challenges and strategic reforms in this area are needed. Despite some progress in recent years, Romania has a high share of early leavers from education and training (15,3 % in 2019) and young people not in education, employment or training (14,7 %, a slight increase on 2018). There is still no integrated, nationwide mechanism targeting early school leaving. Educational outcomes, especially in rural and economically deprived areas, are not improving. Participation in higher education is low and remains insufficiently aligned to labour market needs. The number of graduates in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) remains low. Romania scores poorly on many components of the Digital Economy and Social Index, including digital public services, digital skills of the overall population and digitalisation of businesses. Basic digital skills and basic software skills are among the lowest in the Union. Due to uneven digital infrastructure and insufficient digital skills, the shift to distance learning caused by the COVID-19 outbreak poses challenges for education and training institutions, educators and students, in particular disadvantaged students and Roma.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(22)</p></td><td><p>Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting lockdown measures, supply chains have been interrupted throughout the country, businesses have had to reduce activities or even close, and people have been unable to work. Businesses of all sizes – particularly SMEs – are strongly affected by the disruption of trade and the lockdown and are facing liquidity constraints and bankruptcy risks. The government adopted a set of measures combining tailored assistance to businesses and income protection for all workers affected. To recover from the crisis, additional resources will be needed to keep supporting businesses and households. The services sector will need particular attention as it is hardest hit and some subsectors are expected to contract for longer than manufacturing. Government response measures include the creation of a public guarantee scheme (IMM Invest) with an envelope of RON 15 billion to offer State guarantees to SMEs contracting interest-free loans to finance investment and provide working capital. These guarantees will also be beneficial for banks, which need to remain well capitalised and liquid in order to ensure the necessary flow of credit to households and companies. Furthermore, due to the so far rather limited role of banks in providing credit to businesses – in particular to innovative SMEs – loan guarantees alone might not be enough.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(23)</p></td><td><p>To foster the economic recovery, it will be important to front-load mature public investment projects and promote private investment, including through relevant reforms. The crisis showed even more clearly that Romania has a critical need to relaunch public infrastructure works in fields such as sustainable transport, clean energy, and environmental and digital service infrastructure. Urban transport suffers from poor sector organisation and the weak administrative capacity of local providers. The waste management system continues to be characterised by very low recycling of municipal waste and very high landfill rates. Implementing the National Energy and Climate Plan will require investment in clean production and use of energy, as well as the reconversion of mono-industrial and carbon intensive regions. Efforts need to be stepped up for the extension and modernisation of drinking water and wastewater infrastructure. Investments in the air-monitoring network is also indispensable due to serious structural shortcomings. There is also a need to modernise and ensure interoperability of all the digital public services that generate information-sharing, including in the social, education and health areas. Large regional disparities and the low productivity of some sectors are detrimental to long-term sustainable growth. Equally important are investments to promote the economy’s competitiveness by supporting research and development (R & D) activities, innovative SMEs and integration into the Union’s strategic value chains. R & D investment by firms remains subdued and limited to a small number of subsectors which are highly dependent on foreign direct investments. Declining public R & D funding has resulted in poor scientific and technological quality and weak academia-business links. The programming of the Just Transition Fund, which is the subject of a Commission proposal, for the period 2021-2027 could help Romania to address some of the challenges posed by the transition to a climate-neutral economy, in particular in the territories covered by Annex D to the 2020 country report. This would allow Romania to make the best use of that Fund.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(24)</p></td><td><p>Reform of the public administration is stalling. There is no effective framework in place for strategic and budgetary planning, which has a knock-on effect on the strategic vision for long-term development of the country, the prioritisation of actions and policy coordination at the central and local level. The sectoral strategic framework is fragmented and sometimes overlapping while actions to be taken within sectors are not prioritised. The strategic management role of the General Secretariat of the Government is still not consolidated. High fragmentation of competencies and resources continues to affect the delivery of public services, especially at local level and in poor communities. Red tape and insufficient capacity to deliver quality services, including digital, are negatively impacting on citizens and businesses, especially during thes crisis. Cumbersome administrative procedures for setting up businesses as well as regulatory requirements imposed on services providers, including regulated professions, further impede market development. Reinforced cooperation between Romanian market surveillance authorities and customs authorities can help reducing the volume of non-compliant products imported from outside the Union. Frequent reorganisations and overuse of temporary management hamper the independence of the administration. The implementation of corporate governance for State-owned enterprises remains a challenge.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(25)</p></td><td><p>Predictability of decision-making remains a major issue. Before the crisis, only around a third of the annual government plan was respected. The number of emergency ordinances passed remained very high, creating uncertainty and likely hampering investment. For instance, GEO 114/2018 had major socioeconomic effects on several sectors, including the financial sector. While the provisions with adverse impact on the banking sector were reversed, some of the measures potentially affecting the long-term viability of second-pillar pension funds still remain in place. The predictability and stability of public procurement legislation remain important challenges. The efficiency of public procurement continues to be an issue, as does the irreversibility of certain measures, notably the streamlining of<span>ex ante</span> control. There is little progress in improving the governance, quality and effective use of regulatory impact assessments. There is no institutional framework for quality control at government level and options for setting up a regulatory impact assessement board are still being assessed. The functioning of social dialogue remains limited, in particular at sector level, while a meaningful and continuous involvement of social partners is key for the success of any exit and recovery strategy in the light of the current crisis. The established institutional framework for consultation is not adequately used to feed into the decision-making process and does not engage social partners sufficiently in the design and implementation of reforms. Discussions on changes to the social dialogue law and the revision of economic sectors have stalled. The follow-up to the International Labour Organization’s recommendations issued in April 2018 is still uncertain. The lack of a permanent objective mechanism to determine the minimum wage may weigh on the business environment.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(26)</p></td><td><p>While the country-specific recommendations set out in this Recommendation (‘the 2020 country-specific recommendations’) focus on tackling the socioeconomic impacts of the pandemic and facilitating the economic recovery, the 2019 country-specific recommendations also covered reforms that are essential to address medium- to long-term structural challenges. The 2019 country-specific recommendations remain pertinent and will continue to be monitored throughout next year’s European Semester. That includes the 2019 country-specific recommendations regarding investment-related economic policies. All of the 2019 country-specific recommendations should be taken into account for the strategic programming of post-2020 cohesion policy funding, including for mitigating measures and exit strategies with regard to the current crisis.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(27)</p></td><td><p>Following several headwinds in recent years, pressures on the banking sector have subsided, as several measures which caused concern in the past, including the bank tax, were discontinued at the beginning of 2020. The banking sector has entered the current COVID-19 crisis well capitalised and liquid, while the non-performing loans ratio declined below 5 %. The measures adopted by the government to support households and corporates, in particular SMEs, are also important for maintaining banking-sector resilience and the capacity of banks to absorb shocks. Commercial banks have also taken steps to support clients, such as the postponement of principal and interest payments, the extension of credit repayment, ensuring ATM liquidity and reducing the fees for online services. On 20 March 2020, the National Bank of Romania lowered the monetary policy rate and has since started purchasing RON-denominated government securities in the secondary market to ensure the smooth financing of the real economy and the public sector. In spite of the adopted measures, including the prudential flexibility granted by supervisors, asset quality is likely to deteriorate in the coming months. In this respect, maintaining prudent lending standards and prioritising support to viable borrowers will contribute to safeguarding asset quality in the banking sector. Furthermore, ensuring a stable and predictable regulatory environment for banks is an important precondition for preserving their active role in the provision of credit to the economy and in supporting economic recovery.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(28)</p></td><td><p>Significant legal modifications and political pressure on the judiciary in 2017, 2018 and in the largest part of 2019 have affected the efficiency, quality and independence of the justice system and its capacity to investigate and penalise high-level corruption. While the government currently supports actions to prevent and penalise corruption, and has shown willingness to reverse some of the most controversial measures, Romania has not yet made the necessary legislative changes. These issues are the subject of monitoring under the cooperation and verification mechanism. Under this mechanism, the Commission continues to monitor judicial reform and the fight against corruption in Romania. These areas are therefore not covered in the 2020 country-specific recommendations for Romania, but are relevant for developing a positive socioeconomic environment in the country.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

Place one edge of the gel carrier plate (sheet side down) on the cover sheet plate and lower it slowly so that a gel film forms between the sheets and spreads out regularly and free of bubbles (Figure 3). Carefully lower the gel carrier plate completely using a thin spatula and place three more glass plates on top of it to act as weights. After polymerization is complete (about 60 minutes) remove the gel polymerized onto the gel carrier sheet along with the cover sheet by tipping the glass plates. Clean the reverse of the carrier sheet carefully to remove gel residues and urea. Weld the gel sandwich into a film tube and store in a refrigerator (maximum six weeks).</p><p><span>Note:</span> The cover sheet with the spacers can be re-used.

During the national objection procedure, two operators lodged an objection concerning the obligation to use raw milk in the production of ‘Picodon’, indicating that they were unable to immediately comply with that provision and that a period of time was needed to adapt their production tools. These operators, which have also legally marketed ‘Picodon’ continuously for at least the five years prior to the lodging of the application, meet the conditions of Article 15(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012. A transitional period ending on 31 December 2016 has therefore been granted to them in this context.

The amendments to the specification published in the Official Journal of the European Union regarding the name ‘Picodon’ (PDO) are hereby approved.
Article 2
The protection provided under Article 1 is subject to the transitional period granted by France pursuant to the Order of 17 February 2016 on the protected designation of origin ‘Picodon’, published on 26 February 2016 in the Official Journal of the French Republic under Article 15(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, to operators meeting the conditions of that Article.
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, 11 May 2017.

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2019/788 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 on the European citizens’ initiative ( 1 ) , and in particular Article 6(2) and (3) thereof,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>A request for registration of a European citizens’ initiative entitled ‘Stop (((5G))) – Stay Connected but Protected’ was submitted to the Commission on 12 August 2021.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>The objectives of the initiative as expressed by the organisers are: ‘5G deployment is putting our rights to a healthy environment, freedom and privacy at stake. We call on the Commission to propose legislation to protect citizens and the environment from these threats:</p><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(a)</p></td><td><p>Humans, fauna and flora are being harmed by radiation. Current exposure limits provide insufficient protection – especially for vulnerable people (like children, pregnant women, patients, the elderly), animals, pollinating insects and plants – Enact regulation to protect all life from radio frequency and microwave radiation;</p></td></tr></tbody></table><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(b)</p></td><td><p>With 5G the amount of connected electronic devices, antennas and satellites will explode. Unsustainable energy consumption, radiation emissions, harmful mining and pollution will follow, which will endanger biodiversity and natural habitats – Enact stronger regulation to protect the environment from all the impacts of 5G and digitalization.</p></td></tr></tbody></table><table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(c)</p></td><td><p>5G enables massive data collection and surveillance by connected objects. This will increase the risk of cybercrime, data leak, theft, resale and misuse of artificial intelligence – Enact effective data protection to safeguard our privacy, security and freedom’.</p></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table>

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>As regards the calls for action to implement the first objective of the initiative that concern the European Electronic Communications Code, as laid down in Directive (EU) 2018/1972 of the European Parliament and of the Council <a>(<span>2</span>)</a>, the Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council <a>(<span>3</span>)</a> or proposals which aim at rules that provide for a more complete testing of wireless devices and antennas, insofar as they aim at improving the functioning of the internal market, the Commission has the power to present proposals for legal acts on the basis of Article 114 of the Treaty.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>The initiative also asks for a proposal to ‘replace wireless connections with cables’ in view of the harmful effects for humans of RFEMF. Insofar as that proposal aims at incentive measures designed to protect and improve human health, and measures concerning monitoring, early warning of and combating serious cross-border threats to health, with the exclusion of measures to harmonise the laws and regulations of the Member States, the Commission has the power to present proposals on the basis of Article 168(5) of the Treaty.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>Insofar as some of the calls for action to implement the two first objectives of the initiative aim at preserving, protecting and improving the quality of the environment, protecting human health and prudent and rational utilisation of natural resources, the Commission has the power to present a proposal for a legal act on the basis of Article 192(1) of the Treaty.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>Insofar as one of the calls for action to implement the second objective of the initiative asks for an update of Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council <a>(<span>4</span>)</a>, the Commission has the power to present a proposal for a legal act on the basis of Article 114 of the Treaty.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(12)</p></td><td><p>The initiative contains five calls for action in order to achieve the third initiative’s objective ‘to enact effective data protection to safeguard our privacy, security and freedom’. Insofar as those calls for action invite the Commission to present proposals for legal acts relating to the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data by Union institutions, bodies, offices and agencies, and by the Member States when carrying out activities which fall within the scope of Union law, and the rules relating to the free movement of such data, those proposals could be based on Article 16(2) of the Treaty.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(13)</p></td><td><p>For those reasons, none of the parts of the initiative manifestly falls outside the framework of the Commission’s powers to submit a proposal for a legal act of the Union for the purpose of implementing the Treaties.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(14)</p></td><td><p>This conclusion is without prejudice to the assessment of whether the concrete factual and substantive conditions required for the Commission to act, including compliance with the principles of proportionality and subsidiarity and compatibility with fundamental rights, would be met in this case.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(15)</p></td><td><p>Some of the 23 calls for action, notably the measures mentioned in numbers 4, 7, 12, 13, 17, 18 and 23, do not invite the Commission to adopt a proposal for a legal act of the Union but seem to be ancillary or preparatory to those which call for proposals for legal acts. Since the Commission is not invited to submit a proposal for a legal act of the Union in respect of any of those measures, the latter do not meet the condition laid down in Article 6(3), point (c), of Regulation (EU) 2019/788 to be registered as part of the subject matter of the initiative. Those measures thus fall outside the scope of this Decision. However, if the Commission considers it appropriate to adopt a proposal for a legal act in the areas covered by the scope of the initiative, it could also consider taking some of those elements into account in its proposal.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(16)</p></td><td><p>The group of organisers has provided appropriate evidence that it fulfils the requirements laid down in Article 5(1) and (2) of Regulation (EU) 2019/788 and has designated the contact persons in accordance with Article 5(3), first subparagraph, of that Regulation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(17)</p></td><td><p>The initiative is not manifestly abusive, frivolous or vexatious, nor is it manifestly contrary to the values of the Union as set out in Article 2 of the Treaty on European Union and rights enshrined in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(19)</p></td><td><p>The conclusion that the conditions for registration under Article 6(3) of Regulation (EU) 2019/788 are fulfilled does not imply that the Commission in any way confirms the factual correctness of the content of the initiative, which is the sole responsibility of the group of organisers of the initiative. The content of the initiative only expresses the views of the group of organisers, and can in no way be taken to reflect the views of the Commission,</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The European citizens’ initiative entitled ‘Stop (((5G))) – Stay Connected but Protected’ shall be registered.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the group of organisers of the citizens’ initiative entitled ‘Stop (((5G))) – Stay Connected but Protected’, represented by Ms Pernille SCHRIVER and Ms Elisabeth Birgit MADSEN acting as contact persons.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2023/1049
of 30 May 2023
amending Annexes II and IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards maximum residue levels for fish oil, pendimethalin, sheep fat and spirotetramat in or on certain products
(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 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 February 2005 on maximum residue levels of pesticides in or on food and feed of plant and animal origin and amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC ( 1 ) , and in particular Article 5(1) and Article 14(1), point (a), thereof,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>For pendimethalin and spirotetramat, maximum residue levels (‘MRLs’) were set in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. Fish oil and sheep fat are included in Annex IV to that Regulation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>As regards the active substance pendimethalin, an application pursuant to Article 6(1) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 requesting a modification of the existing MRLs was submitted for peas (with pods), beans (with pods) and leeks. As regards the active substance spirotetramat, such an application was submitted for herbs and edible flowers.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>In accordance with Article 8 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, those applications were evaluated by the Member States concerned and the evaluation reports were forwarded to the Commission.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) assessed the applications and the evaluation reports, examining in particular the risks to consumers and, where relevant, to animals, and gave reasoned opinions on the proposed MRLs <a>(<span>2</span>)</a>. It forwarded those opinions to the applicants, the Commission and the Member States and made them available to the public.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>As regards spirotetramat, in herbs and edible flowers, others, the Authority did not recommend a specific MRL value. Nevertheless, the Authority noted that risk managers may consider to implement the MRL of 10 mg/kg to the whole group of herbs and edible flowers, and that this would be safe for consumers. Therefore, it is appropriate to propose setting the MRL for spirotetramat in herbs and edible flowers, others, at 10 mg/kg in accordance with the relevant Commission Technical Guidelines <a>(<span>3</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>For pendimethalin and spirotetramat, the Authority concluded that all requirements with respect to completeness of data submission were met and that the modifications to the MRLs requested by the applicants were acceptable with regard to consumer safety on the basis of a consumer exposure assessment for 27 specific European consumer groups. In so concluding, the Authority took into account the most recent data on the toxicological properties of the substances. Neither the long-term exposure to these substances via consumption of all food products that may contain them, nor the short-term exposure due to high consumption of the relevant products showed a risk that the acceptable daily intake or the acute reference dose is exceeded.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>Based on the reasoned opinions of the Authority and taking into account the relevant factors listed in Article 14(2) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, it is appropriate to conclude that the proposed modifications to the MRLs fulfil the requirements of that article.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>Fish oil and sheep fat were temporarily included in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 pending the finalisation of their evaluation either under Council Directive 91/414/EEC <a>(<span>4</span>)</a> or under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council <a>(<span>5</span>)</a>, and pending the review of MRLs on those active substances in accordance with Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. In the context of applications for renewal of the approval of those active substances under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, the Authority issued conclusions on the peer review of the pesticide risk assessment of fish oil and sheep fat <a>(<span>6</span>)</a>. Based on those conclusions, no MRLs are required for fish oil and sheep fat. Therefore, it is appropriate for those substances to remain in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 should therefore be amended accordingly.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Annexes II and IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 are amended in accordance with 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 DECISION
of 20 December 2021
on the financial management of the mutual insurance mechanism established under Regulation (EU) 2021/695 of the European Parliament and of the Council for actions under the Seventh Framework Programme, Horizon 2020, Horizon Europe and Euratom Programmes
(2021/C 514 I/03)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2021/695 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 April 2021 establishing Horizon Europe – the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, laying down its rules for participation and dissemination, and repealing Regulations (EU) No 1290/2013 and (EU) No 1291/2013 ( 1 ) , in particular Article 37(2) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (Euratom) 2021/765 of 10 May 2021 establishing the Research and Training Programme of the European Atomic Energy Community for the period 2021-2025 complementing Horizon Europe – the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation and repealing Regulation (Euratom) 2018/1563 ( 2 ) , in particular Article 9(5) thereof,
Whereas:

HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:
Article 1
1. The Commission entrusts the financial and administrative management of the MIM to the Directorate General for Research and Innovation (‘DG RTD’ or ‘designated service’) for actions under the Seventh Framework Programme, Horizon 2020, Horizon Europe and Euratom Programmes.
2. The Commission entrusts the tasks of financial assets manager of the MIM to the Directorate General for Budget.
3. The division of tasks and duties between the designated service and the financial assets manager in relation to the MIM shall be set out in a service level agreement in conformity with the functions and responsibilities set out in this Decision.
Article 2
The Rules and Procedures of the MIM are set out in the Annex.
Article 3
1. The Commission delegates to the authorising officers, as indicated in the Rules and Procedures of the MIM set out in the Annex, powers to authorise interventions from the MIM and the return of contributions to the beneficiaries.
2. The Commission authorises the same authorising officers to implement revenue from the MIM under the Seventh Framework Programme, Horizon 2020, Horizon Europe and Euratom Programmes.
3. The authorising officers by delegation may sub-delegate the relevant powers to authorising officers by sub-delegation in line with the Commission Decision C(2018)5120 of 3 August 2018 on the Internal Rules on the implementation of the general Budget of the European Union.
4. The Commission delegates to the authorising officer by delegation of the designated service, the power to authorise payment orders for transferring the contribution collected by the AOD to the MIM and then to the Asset manager. The Commission also delegates to the authorising officer by delegation of the designated service, the power to issue recovery orders for transferring funds from the Asset manager to the MIM in order to ensure the returns of contributions and interventions. The authorising officer by delegation of the designated service may sub-delegate the relevant powers to authorising officers by sub-delegation.
5. In its role as financial and administrative manager of the MIM, the designated service shall, after the verification of their conformity and regularity, validate or reject the transactions authorised by the authorising officers by delegation. Before validating the transaction, the designated service may issue a non-binding opinion on its opportunity. Where the opinion is negative, the transaction shall be validated by the designated service only if the authorising officer by delegation confirms the transaction in writing, providing a proper motivation.
Article 4
The Commission’s accounting officer is appointed the accounting officer of the MIM.
Article 5
1. Where the designated service, in agreement with the financial assets manager, considers that the MIM’s funds are not sufficient to return the beneficiary contributions at the payment of the balance, the measures referred to in paragraph 2 shall be temporarily enacted.
2. Any negative financial returns, including interests, net realised losses and valuation losses, administrative and bank fees for the management of the MIM such as, but not limited to, transaction fees, IT costs, account fees, custodian fees, external audit fees, costs, as well as any late payment interests on the return due to beneficiaries, may be covered by internal and/or external assigned revenues stemming from past and current Research and Innovation Framework Programmes, as well as from the budget of the participating programmes. Internal assigned revenues stemming from recoveries (both of the current financial year and carried over under Article 12(4)(b) of the Financial Regulation ( 12 ) ), as well as available external assigned revenues from past Research Framework Programmes, shall be used in priority.
3. The financial resources referred to in paragraph 2 shall not be used to finance the interventions of the MIM, except to cover the granting authority’s contractual obligations of previously signed Horizon 2020 grant agreements where, on the basis of the monthly financial statement of the MIM, the designated service, in agreement with the accountant of the MIM consider that the financial returns are not sufficient, or where the net financial returns available amount is less than EUR 15 million.
4. Any transfers to the MIM under the temporary measures set out in paragraph 2 shall not result in the creation of a reserve exceeding EUR 60 million at any given time.
Article 6
Decision C(2013) 9092 is repealed.

INTRODUCTION
This Annex sets out the Rules and Procedures for all the services involved in the operations and the management of the mutual insurance mechanism (the ‘MIM’).
These Rules and Procedures apply to actions financed under the Seventh Framework Programme ( 1 ) (‘FP7’), Horizon 2020 ( 2 ) (‘H2020’), the Horizon Europe ( 3 ) (‘HE’), and the Euratom Research and Training Programme ( 4 ) (‘Euratom Programmes’).
A comprehensive user guide for staff responsible for implementing actions under the FP7, H2020, HE and Euratom Programmes will be included in the ‘MIM Guidance’.
1. CONTEXT
1.2. Budgetary structure, costs related to, and actors involved in managing the MIM
1.2.1. The MIM’s specific budgetary structure
Although the MIM lacks legal personality, it has a structure and an accounting and a budgetary system (company code ‘GF01’) independent from that of the Commission (company code ‘BG32’) or other Union bodies.
1.2.2. Authorising officers
The Commission is the authorising officer of the MIM.
For the purpose of this decision, the following are understood as ‘authorising officers by delegation’ (‘AOD’) for the operations of the MIM, each one responsible for the part of the FP7, H2020, HE budget or the Euratom Programmes budget that they implement:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>Directors-general of the different Directorates General of the Commission;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>For Euratom Programmes, the Director General of DG RTD,</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>Directors of the executive agencies,</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>Holders of equivalent positions in entities entrusted with budgetary implementation tasks, such as Executive Directors of joint undertakings and other relevant funding bodies on condition that the tasks related to the operations of the MIM are entrusted in accordance with Article 154 of the Financial Regulation <a>(<span>5</span>)</a> and subject to the conditions for MIM participation set out in the instrument entrusting budgetary implementation tasks.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
AODs are responsible for retaining, from each initial pre-financing, the contribution to the MIM provided for in the grant agreements they manage.
They are also responsible for (i) returning MIM contributions to beneficiaries, (ii) for MIM interventions, including payments and recoveries. Consequently, they are also AODs in the ‘GF01’ accounting system.
They remain fully responsible for ensuring that the funds they manage are used correctly and that the expenditure placed under their control is legal and correct.
1.2.3. The Commission’s designated service for managing the MIM
DG RTD, as the designated service, is responsible for monitoring and supervising the sound financial management of the MIM’s financial transactions. This does not relieve the AODs of their individual responsibility.
In particular, the designated service shall:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>transfer beneficiaries’ contributions from the specific ‘BG32’ off-budget account to the ‘GF01’ <a>(<span>6</span>)</a> bank account;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>transfer contributions from the ‘GF01’ bank account to the financial assets manager;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>monitor that there is enough liquidity in the ‘GF01’ bank account to be able to promptly respond to requests for returns and to requests for interventions;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>regularly provide the MIM’s accounting officer with all information needed to perform his or her duties;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>ensure the detailed monitoring and follow-up of amounts transferred to or from the financial assets manager;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>periodically provide the financial assets manager with a projection of the flow of contributions and returns, based on information provided by the services involved, and any other information reasonably required by the financial asset manager for the performance of his or her duties;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>provide the AODs with quarterly reports on the MIM’s financial situation;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>monitor the situation and evolution of the MIM to allow the Commission to take, if needed, appropriate mitigating measures in order to allow the MIM to continue its interventions for the protection of the financial interests of the Union and to return contributions to beneficiaries at the payment of the balance;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>verify<span>ex-post</span> that the AODs have correctly retained the MIM contribution from each initial pre-financing and that the contribution is equal to the percentage specified in the grant agreement, applied to the maximum grant amount indicated in the grant agreement;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>validate or reject the transactions authorised by the authorising officers by delegation, after the verification of their conformity and regularity. In case of disagreement on the opportunity of a transaction, the designated service, releases a non-binding opinion before its validation;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>chair the MIM Inter-service Group referred to in point 1.2.6;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>ensure that the MIM guidance content is up-to-date;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>assist the financial officers of the relevant AOD.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
1.2.4. The MIM’s accounting officer
The MIM’s accounting officer carries out the role in accordance with principles set out in the ‘Charter of tasks and responsibilities of the Commission’s accounting officer’ ( 7 ) .
The MIM’s specific accounting system is part of the Commission’s accounting system. However, its accountancy is distinct from that of the general budget of the Union.
The designated service and the financial assets manager referred to in point 1.2.5 provide the MIM’s accounting officer with all information necessary for compiling the accounts, which must give a true and fair view of the MIM’s assets and liabilities. The MIM’s accounting officer may verify the information received and carry out any further checks that are considered necessary before signing off the accounts. The MIM’s accounting officer may express reservations, specifying their nature and scope.
1.2.5. The financial assets manager
The Directorate General for the Budget (DG BUDG), as the financial assets manager, manages the MIM’s assets in line with the service level agreement that it concludes with the designated service.
The service level agreement will establish the relationship between the designated service and the financial assets manager as well as the investment rules of the MIM, with a view to find the right balance between an acceptable level of investment risk and long term financial viability of the MIM ( 8 ) .
The financial assets manager will monitor the funds in line with the rules set out in the service level agreement and report to the designated service any relevant information related to its mandate.
1.2.6. Inter-Service Group of the Mutual Insurance Mechanism
The Inter-Service Group of the Mutual Insurance Mechanism (‘ISG-MIM’) is composed of the Directorates-General, Executive Agencies and Joint Undertakings involved in the operations of the MIM. Its members include also a representative of the Commission’s Legal Service, DG BUDG and the Common Legal Support Service (CLSS).
The ISG-MIM is chaired by the designated service. It has a consultative role.
2. CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE MIM
In line with the relevant grant agreement, the contribution will be retained in full from the initial pre-financing. If the EU grant amount is increased through an amendment, an additional corresponding retention as contribution to the MIM will be applied ( 9 ) .
2.1. Procedure No 1 — Contribution
Step 1
When concluding a grant agreement, the AOD retains the contribution percentage from the pre-financing, as specified in the grant agreement.
The relevant financial initiating agent enters a pre-financing payment order ( 10 ) (‘PO’) in its own accounting system. The part of the amount of this PO intended for the MIM is recorded by the relevant financial initiating agent in a specific off-budget account in its own accounting system.
The PO follows the relevant authorising procedure and it is executed by the relevant accounting officer ( 11 ) .
Step 2
The designated service regularly transfers the total cumulative contributions from the specific off-budget accounts to the accounting system ‘GF01’ ( 12 ) by means of a PO.
The PO is checked by a financial verifying agent, authorised by the AOSD of the designated service and executed by the Commission’s accounting officer.
Step 3
The designated service, by means of a PO, authorises the transfer of the contributions from the ‘GF01’ accounting system to the MIM’s financial assets manager, and ensures that the ‘GF01’ bank account has sufficient liquidity to be able to respond to requests for returns and interventions.
This PO is checked by a financial verifying agent, authorised by the AOD of the designated service and executed by the MIM’s accounting officer.
The designated service verifies ex-post that the AOD has correctly calculated and retained the contribution to the MIM from the initial pre-financing. If an error is detected, the designated service notifies the AOD responsible who corrects the amount.
3. RETURNING MIM’s CONTRIBUTIONS
3.1. General rules
Under Article 37(4) of Regulation (EU) 2021/695, the contribution transferred to the MIM must be returned to the beneficiaries at the payment of the balance. The amount to be returned includes late-payment interest on the retention, if applicable, but not interests generated by the MIM.
If the calculation of the payment of the balance does not justify repaying any or part of the initial contribution to the beneficiaries, the entire contribution, or the relevant part, is to be returned to the relevant budget line from which the initial commitment was authorised.
3.2. Procedure No 2 – Returning
The return of the contributions shall be carried out according to the following three procedures:
3.2.1. Procedure 2a – Complete repayment to the beneficiaries
If the calculation of the payment of the balance justifies a full repayment of the initial contribution, the relevant AOD repays the contribution to the beneficiaries via the coordinator of the action.
The financial initiating agent initiates in the ABAC ( 13 ) ‘GF01’ accounting system a PO in favour of the coordinator of the action. The PO is then checked by a financial verifying agent, authorised by the AOD, validated by the designated service in ABAC SAP ( 14 ) and executed by the MIM’s accounting officer.
If an error is detected, the designated service rejects the transaction in ABAC SAP and notifies the relevant AOD.
3.2.2. Procedure 2b – Complete repayment to relevant budget line
If the calculation of the payment of the balance after taking into account the requirements of the applicable grant agreement does not justify repaying any part of initial contribution to the beneficiaries, the relevant AOD fully repays it to the budget line from which the initial payment was made.
To do this, the relevant AOD authorises a recovery order (‘RO’) against the MIM in its accounting system. Once the RO is validated by the relevant accounting officer, the initiating agent initiates a PO in the GF01 accounting system.
The financial initiating agent initiates in the ABAC ‘GF01’ accounting system a PO in favour of the budget line from which the original payment was made. The PO is then checked by a financial verifying agent, authorised by the AOD, validated by the designated service in ABAC SAP and executed by the MIM’s accounting officer.
If an error is detected, the designated service rejects the transaction in ABAC SAP and notifies the relevant AOD.
3.2.3. Procedure 2c – Partial repayment to the legal entities and to relevant budget line
If the calculation of the payment of the balance justifies partially repaying the initial contribution to the beneficiaries, the relevant AOD repays a partial amount to the action’s coordinator.
The relevant AOD repays the remaining amount to the budget line from which the initial payment was made.
To do this, the relevant AOD authorises a RO against the MIM in its accounting system. Once the RO is validated by the relevant accounting officer, the initiating agent initiates two POs in the ABAC GF01 accounting system. One in favour of the budget line, the other in favour of the action’s coordinator. Both POs are then checked by a financial verifying agent, authorised by the AOD, validated by the designated service in ABAC SAP and executed by the MIM’s accounting officer.
If an error is detected, the designated service rejects the transaction in ABAC SAP and notifies the relevant AOD.
4. INTERVENTION OF THE MIM (DEFAULTS)
4.1. Introduction
If a beneficiary (including the coordinator) defaults, – that is, it does not pay by the due date the whole or a part of the amount established in the debit note – and in the absence of guarantees or further possible offsets, the relevant AOD considers launching a MIM intervention in line with the relevant contractual provisions (FP7, H2020, Euratom Programme or HE). MIM interventions do not affect any administrative sanctions or measures that may be imposed on the defaulting legal entity under the Financial Regulation.
Except where the interventions of the MIM derive from a contractual provision of the H2020 grant agreement, if the financial return generated by the MIM is insufficient to cover the default, the MIM cannot intervene and the Commission, executive agency, joint undertaking or Union body concerned, must recover the amount due directly from the beneficiary or, if possible, its affiliated entity/linked third party.
A MIM intervention cannot be launched:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>for ROs issued after the payment of the balance;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>for ROs issued to recover liquidated damages and/or financial penalties owed by a legal entity.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
If after the payment of the balance, the relevant AOD issues a RO against the coordinator for amounts of non-distributed pre-financing, interim payments or payments of the balance, the MIM will not intervene.
4.2. Procedure No 3 – MIM intervention
4.2.1. Procedure 3a — MIM intervention in ongoing actions (direct transfer to consortium)
In case of termination of a beneficiary (including the coordinator) of the consortium during an ongoing action (‘defaulting beneficiary’), and where the amounts unduly received by the defaulting beneficiary are not reimbursed by the latter to the consortium, the MIM will intervene by paying such amounts to the coordinator (in case the defaulting beneficiary is the coordinator, the amount due from that entity will be paid by the MIM to the new coordinator), if the following cumulative conditions are met:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(a)</p></td><td><p>the action is still on-going <a>(<span>15</span>)</a>;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(b)</p></td><td><p>the relevant AOD considers that the intervention is necessary and opportune for the consortium to successfully complete the action;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(c)</p></td><td><p>the rest of the consortium agrees to implement the action with the same objectives;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(d)</p></td><td><p>an amendment to the grant agreement terminating the defaulting beneficiary (or coordinator) is signed;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(e)</p></td><td><p>if the defaulting beneficiary is the coordinator, that a new coordinator is appointed with the agreement of the remaining beneficiaries.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
The relevant AOD is responsible for verifying the fulfilment of those conditions.
This procedure does not apply to amounts of pre-financing or interim payments undistributed by the coordinator.
In view of verifying and monitoring the conformity, the regularity and the opportunity of the transaction, the designated service controls the fulfilment of these conditions and rejects the transaction if the conditions are not fulfilled. When the designated service rejects the transaction, it notifies the reasons to the relevant AOD. If the designated service considers that the condition under (b) is not fulfilled, it will issue a non-binding opinion via note addressed to the AOD. In case the AOD disagrees, she or he confirms its position in writing in a motivated reply.
For each intervention, the designated service may request access to administrative and financial files.
Step 1
The financial initiating agent of the relevant AOD initiates a PO in favour of the coordinator (or the new coordinator) in the ‘GF01’ accounting system for the amount unduly received by the defaulting beneficiary. The PO is then checked by a financial verifying agent, authorised by the relevant AOD and, if validated by the designated service in ABAC SAP, executed by the MIM’s accounting officer.
From a legal point of view, the payment will be done by the Commission, executive agency, joint undertaking or other funding body concerned even though the payment is done by the accounting officer of the MIM via the ‘GF01’ account.
Step 2
In parallel, the financial initiating agent of the relevant AOD initiates a RO in the name of the Commission, executive agency, the joint undertaking or other funding body against the defaulting beneficiary in the ‘GF01’ accounting system, and must indicate the bank account of the MIM. This RO is then checked by a financial verifying agent, authorised by the relevant AOD and, if validated by the designated service in ABAC SAP, executed by the MIM’s accounting officer, who also ensures its follow-up.
If the defaulting beneficiary declares bankruptcy, insolvency or is in the process of dissolution or liquidation, the relevant AOD must send a declaration of debt to the liquidator as soon as possible ( 16 ) . The relevant AOD must also send the liquidator the corresponding debit note.
4.2.2. Procedure 3b — Other MIM interventions (transfer to budget line)
This procedure applies for the following cases, where debit notes established have not been honoured:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>a)</p></td><td><p>termination of a beneficiary (including the coordinator <a>(<span>17</span>)</a>) before the payment of the balance, in cases where the procedure 3a does not apply;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>b)</p></td><td><p>termination of a coordinator before the payment of the balance because the coordinator did not distribute the pre-financing or any interim payment to the other beneficiaries of the consortium;</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>c)</p></td><td><p>there is a debt resulting from a ‘negative payment of the balance’.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
Step 1
The relevant AOD issues a RO against the beneficiary or the coordinator in its accounting system to recover the amount owed (in accordance with the relevant grant agreement).
Step 2
If the debit note is not reimbursed totally or partially within the specified deadline and if offsetting by the relevant accounting officer is not possible totally or partially, that accounting officer must inform the relevant AOD.
The relevant AOD then initiates, verifies and authorises a PO in the ‘GF01’ accounting system to pay the totality or the part of the debit note still pending to be paid. Then, if validated by the designated service in ABAC SAP, the PO is executed by the MIM’s accounting officer.
Step 3
In parallel, the relevant AOD initiates, verifies and authorises a new RO against the defaulting beneficiary in the ‘GF01’ accounting system. Then, if validated by the designated service in ABAC SAP, the RO is executed by the MIM’s accounting officer, who ensures its follow-up and takes the steps specified in the Financial Regulation to ensure recovery of the amount owed.
The relevant AOD generates a new debit note in the name of the Commission, executive agency, joint undertaking or another funding body concerned, in favour of the MIM, which simply replaces the initial debit note, keeping the same payment date and interest rate and properly informing the debtor.
If the beneficiary honours the debit note, the funds are paid to the ‘GF01’ bank account along with the default interest accrued.
If the beneficiary does not honour the debit note, other options for recovering the funds in question may be possible, such as offsetting the amounts due, holding affiliated entities of the beneficiary liable ( 18 ) or enforced recovery, if applicable ( 19 ) , or, in the case of funding bodies, any other appropriate measure foreseen in accordance with its rules and procedure.
For step (2) and (3): in view of verifying and monitoring the conformity and the regularity of the transaction (PO and RO), the designated service may request access to administrative and financial files. If an error is detected, the designated service rejects the transaction and notifies the relevant AOD.
Notes to chapter 4.2
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>1.</p></td><td><span>In application of the principle of sound financial management, and in order to protect the financial interests of the Union, the AOD should verify whether the consortium or its members have fulfilled their obligation of timely (according to the grant agreement/annotated grant agreement) informing about the non-distribution of the pre-financing or of the interim payment by the coordinator. In particular, as soon as the relevant AOD receives such information, he or she must immediately take any possible measure to suspend any further payment to the defaulting coordinator. The relevant AOD could also consider whether any delay in this information, having as a consequence an additional financial exposure of the Union budget (i.e. a further payment) has to be attributed to the consortium members.</span></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>2.</p></td><td><span>Whenever the non-distribution is reported by the consortium’s members with unjustified delay, in order to trigger the intervention of the MIM, reasonable assurance must be gathered by the AOD, that the coordinator did not enter in any kind of bi or multi-lateral agreement with any of the unpaid beneficiaries, in particular for reducing or offsetting or compensating any part of the amount at stake. The AOD may if necessary ask the coordinator and/or beneficiaries for proof of transfer or receipt.</span></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>3.</p></td><td><span>Only applicable to 4.2.2. If a beneficiary declares bankruptcy, insolvency or is in the process of dissolution or liquidation, the Commission, executive agency, joint undertaking or another funding body’s AOD shall immediately initiate a MIM intervention before the specified deadline in the debit note (step 1). If the RO issued in ‘GF01’ has been issued or can be issued before any deadline, then only the debit note corresponding to this RO should be sent to the beneficiary, with a copy addressed to the liquidator, in the name of the Commission, executive agency, joint undertaking or another funding body concerned and in favour of the MIM.</span></td></tr></tbody></table>
In any case, no more payments to the coordinator shall be done until such situation is resolved.
5. ACCOUNTING SYSTEM
5.1. Annual accounts
The accounts must comply with the applicable rules, be accurate, comprehensive and present a true and fair view of MIM assets, the financial situation and the outturn of the financial year.
The MIM’s accounting officer sets out the accounting procedures and the chart of accounts.
5.2. Computerised accounting system
The MIM’s accounting officer draws up the functional specifications of the accounting software and ensures that they comply with the accounting rules and practices before this system is being put into operation.
The AODs and designated service uses the central ABAC WORKFLOW system to make payments, collect revenue and recover debts. The ABAC SAP-ACCOUNTING system is used for keeping, preparing and presenting the accounts.
The accounting system and accounting procedures used must take into consideration procedures specific to the MIM, as described in sections 2, 3 and 4 of this Annex.
5.3. Executing payments
Payments are made by the MIM’s accounting officer within the limits of the available funds.
The MIM’s accounting officer may make payments by bank transfer only if the beneficiary’s bank details and confirmation of its identity (or changes to it) were entered in the Commission’s central third-party database in advance.
5.4. Collecting revenue and recovering debts
The MIM’s accounting officer is responsible for the ROs drawn up by the relevant AOD and acts with due diligence to ensure that they are collected.
If debts are not repaid by the deadline specified in the debit note, the MIM’s accounting officer implements the pre-litigation recovery procedure by sending reminders and letters of formal notice to the debtor.
The MIM’s accounting officer calculates and recovers the default interest due in accordance with the provisions included in the debit note.
If necessary, the MIM’s accounting officer may recover the debt by offsetting it or by calling in a guarantee lodged in advance (for FP7 actions), after informing the relevant AOD and the defaulting beneficiary.
If the debts are not recovered through the pre-litigation procedure, the MIM’s accounting officer either:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>asks the relevant AOD to prepare an enforceable decision in accordance with Article 100 of the Financial Regulation or</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>—</p></td><td><p>if it is not possible to formalise the RO as an enforceable decision, instructs the Commission’s relevant service to obtain an enforcement order by judicial means, if in line with the Internal Rules <a>(<span>20</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
The MIM’s accounting officer may grant the debtor additional time for payment, if the debtor commits to paying the default interest due and lodges a guarantee covering the principal amount and the interest.
If necessary, the MIM’s accounting officer may at any point in the procedure take steps to safeguard the Union’s financial interests.
5.5. Managing the ‘GF01’ bank accounts
The MIM’s accounting officer is empowered to manage the bank accounts used to execute payments and to collect revenue. The MIM’s accounting officer is responsible for safeguarding the funds deposited on these accounts.
At least once a month, the MIM’s accounting officer must verify that the amounts entered into the accounting system match the amounts in these bank accounts. The MIM’s accounting officer must investigate and, if necessary, correct any differences found.

That Regulation was recast in 2006 by Regulation (EC) No 1920/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council <a>(<span>4</span>)</a>.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>The EMCDDA was established to provide the Union, Member States and participating third countries with factual, objective, reliable and comparable information concerning drugs, drug addiction and their consequences at European level in order to help provide them with an overall view of that information for the purpose of informing policymaking and guiding initiatives to tackle drugs and, thus, giving such initiatives added value when, in their respective areas of competence, they take measures or decide on action to address the drugs phenomenon. The establishment and functioning of the EMCDDA has manifestly improved the availability of information on drugs and drug addiction, and their consequences, across the Union and internationally.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>While its general objective is still valid and should be retained, Regulation (EC) No 1920/2006 no longer provides an adequate framework for addressing current and future drug challenges. Therefore, the mandate of the EMCDDA should be revised in order, amongst other things, to replace and strengthen it. The EMCDDA should be renamed the European Union Drugs Agency (EUDA) (the ‘Agency’). Since substantial amendments to Regulation (EC) No 1920/2006 are needed to accommodate the common approach on Union decentralised agencies adopted on 19 July 2012 by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission and to take account of the developments of the drugs phenomenon, in the interest of clarity and efficiency, that Regulation should be repealed and replaced by this Regulation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>The main focus of Regulation (EC) No 1920/2006 was on health-related issues. While it is essential to maintain that focus, as health- and supply-related issues regarding the drugs phenomenon are intrinsically linked, it is also necessary to address drug supply in order to reduce the availability of drugs in the Union and curb drug demand and, thus, to contribute to addressing related safety and security concerns. In order to provide factual, objective, reliable, comparable and Union-wide significant data and analysis, the Agency should address the drugs phenomenon, taking an evidence-based, integrated, balanced and multidisciplinary approach to drugs, drug use, drug use disorders and addictions, prevention, treatment, care, risk and harm reduction, rehabilitation, social reintegration and recovery, drug markets and supply, including illicit production and trafficking, and other relevant drug-related issues and their consequences. The Agency’s approach should incorporate human rights, gender and gender equality, age, health, health equity and social perspectives.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>The work of the Agency should be carried out with due regard to the respective powers of the Union and its Member States in the area of drugs. It should cover the various facets of the drugs phenomenon and the solutions applied. In particular, the Agency should consider all aspects related to the protection and improvement of health, including physical and mental aspects, and the potential impact on public health. The Agency should also look into social aspects, including considerations linked to stigmatisation, marginalisation and the reintegration of people who use drugs. In doing so, the Agency should be guided by Union drug-related strategic documents.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>In pursuing its activities, the Agency should cooperate with other relevant Union bodies, offices and agencies within their respective mandates and should take account of their activities in order to avoid duplication. In particular, with due regard for their respective mandates, the Agency should cooperate with the European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Cooperation (Europol), established by Regulation (EU) 2016/794 of the European Parliament and of the Council <a>(<span>5</span>)</a>, in order to ensure the collection of data, and the monitoring of trends, on drug supply, including illicit production and trafficking and other related crimes, on the use of new technologies and on new psychoactive substances. The Agency should also cooperate at international level with relevant authorities and bodies in third countries, in particular in candidate countries, and in support of Union and Member State action at the level of the United Nations. It is necessary that such cooperation comply with human rights norms.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>In order to attain maximum efficiency in addressing the drugs phenomenon, the Agency should have exchanges with relevant stakeholders and, in particular, with the scientific community, including academia, and civil society organisations, including organisations of people who use drugs and of communities affected by the consumption and sale of drugs or drug-related crime. Given the particular relevance of the experience of civil society organisations in the Agency’s area of competence, the Agency should maintain cooperation on its activities with civil society organisations, such as those active in the relevant Commission expert groups on drugs composed of civil society organisations. The Agency should dedicate the necessary means to consult, exchange information and pool knowledge with those organisations, including in the area of new psychoactive substances. Where appropriate, the Agency should organise dedicated consultations on the topics within its mandate.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>With a view to disseminating reliable information on drugs and the drug situation, the Agency should engage in communication activities on topics within its mandate. However, communication to the wider public in the area of drugs can sometimes have unintended negative consequences. As part of its communication activities and where appropriate, the Agency should, therefore, consider disseminating its reports, including initial reports and risk assessment reports on new psychoactive substances, to the scientific community and civil society organisations with a view to minimising possible drug-related harm. Where the Agency is prevented from disseminating its reports, in particular due to the presence of classified or sensitive non-classified information, it could consider publishing summaries of those reports with a view to minimising possible drug-related harm.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>In its work, the Agency should pay due regard to poly-substance use because such use is becoming increasingly common.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>The Agency should develop its activities around three main areas of competence, namely monitoring, leading to better informed policies; preparedness, leading to better informed actions; and competence development, leading to stronger Union and Member State responses to the drugs phenomenon.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>The collection, analysis and dissemination of data should continue to be the main task of the Agency. When collecting, analysing or disseminating data, the Agency should comply with the legal framework on the processing of personal data and should not disseminate or transmit any data which would make it possible to identify individuals or small groups of individuals. Standard data are collected through national focal points, which should remain the primary data providers for the Agency. The Agency could also use additional sources and organise meetings of experts, including virtual meetings. In addition, closer to real-time data sources are increasingly available through innovative data collection methods. Therefore, the Agency should have access to relevant available data to obtain a holistic picture of the drugs phenomenon in the Union and the external factors influencing it. With a view to ensuring that each national focal point remain informed of the situation in its Member State, it should be informed on a regular basis of data concerning its Member State that are collected from additional sources of information and of the activities of the network of forensic and toxicological laboratories set up by this Regulation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(12)</p></td><td><p>The national focal points are key players in the Union’s drug monitoring and reporting system. They collect information and produce comparable and scientifically sound data on the national drug situation, which feed into monitoring the situation across the Union. The national focal points are also key in the process of improving data collection methodologies and tools and of developing relevant guidelines for their implementation. In addition, the national focal points participate in an early warning system and report on new trends in the use of existing psychoactive substances. It is therefore essential that the Agency and the national focal points have a mutually reinforcing relationship. The data requirements of the Agency should be mirrored in the national focal points. The national focal points should be empowered within the Member States to receive all relevant data from the different national authorities. While avoiding any harmonisation measures and leaving the decisions as to the governance, structure or basic tasks of the national focal points in respect of other national competent authorities to the Member States, in line with the Treaties, the mandate of the Agency should enable a streamlining of data collection in the Member States as far as possible so as to avoid double reporting and duplication of efforts.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(13)</p></td><td><p>It is necessary to establish the foundations of a relationship of mutual trust and continuous dialogue between the Agency and the national focal points, based on a clear and effective functioning mechanism and a set of rules. The Agency should therefore be empowered to financially support the national focal points and contribute to their effective functioning, including by providing an assessment of each national focal point relating directly to its contribution to coordinated Union action in the field of drugs.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(14)</p></td><td><p>With the aim of supporting effective Union action in the field of drugs and contributing to the work of the Agency, the national focal points should,<span>inter alia</span>, assume a coordinating role in activities related to ensuring coherent drug-related data collection and monitoring, communication with the Agency and promotion of evidence-based decision making, ensuring a cross-sectoral and comprehensive national view of the drug situation, including any relevant information on new trends and challenges, and contributing to the establishment of relevant indicators. In addition, and in line with national competence, the national focal points have a key role in promoting and supporting evidence-based decision-making, supporting systems of collaboration, assessing the information needs of relevant stakeholders and compiling an up-to-date inventory of national drug information sources.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(15)</p></td><td><p>In order to facilitate and structure data collection and information exchange, both qualitative and quantitative, and to support the establishment of an integrated and interoperable monitoring system enabling real-time monitoring, the Agency should develop and apply the appropriate digital solutions necessary for the performance of its tasks.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(17)</p></td><td><p>In order to improve the Union’s preparedness, it is necessary to have a holistic picture of potential future developments of the drugs phenomenon. To prepare itself and to better equip policymakers for such future developments, the Agency should conduct regular foresight exercises taking into account megatrends, that is to say long-term driving forces that are currently observable and will most likely have a significant influence on the future, with the aim of identifying new challenges and opportunities for responding to drug problems.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(18)</p></td><td><p>The drugs phenomenon is becoming increasingly technology-enabled, as was shown during the COVID-19 pandemic where a greater adoption of new technologies to facilitate drug distribution was observed. It is estimated that about two-thirds of the offers on darknet markets are drug-related. Drug trading uses different platforms, including social media networks and mobile applications. That development is mirrored in responses to the drugs phenomenon, with an increased use of internet communications and online interventions, including mobile applications and e-health interventions. The Agency, together with other relevant Union bodies, offices and agencies and while avoiding duplication of efforts, should monitor such developments as part of its holistic approach to the drugs phenomenon.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(19)</p></td><td><p>New psychoactive substances which pose public health and social risks across the Union should be adequately addressed. It is therefore necessary to monitor new psychoactive substances and, in order to enable a quick response, to maintain the early warning system set up under Regulation (EC) No 1920/2006. The provisions of that Regulation relating to the exchange of information on, and the early warning system for, new psychoactive substances, including initial reports and risk assessments on new psychoactive substances, were amended recently and should remain unchanged in this Regulation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(20)</p></td><td><p>Based on strengthened monitoring by the Agency and the experience gained in the risk assessment of new psychoactive substances, the Agency should develop general health and security threat assessment capabilities.

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(21)</p></td><td><p>As dangerous substances and certain consumption patterns might lead to harm for health, the Agency should be able to issue alerts complementing and without prejudice to the relevant national alert systems. To support that function, the Agency should develop a European drug alert system which is accessible by national authorities. That system should facilitate the rapid exchange of information that might require rapid actions to safeguard health, social aspects, safety and security. The Agency should, under the conditions laid down in this Regulation, be able to develop an alert system to make information on identified risks available to people who use or potentially use specific drugs.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(22)</p></td><td><p>Drug precursors are substances necessary for the production of drugs such as amphetamines, cocaine and heroin. As illegal drug production in the Union is increasing, the prevention of diversion and trafficking of drug precursors from legal channels to illegal drug production should be strengthened.

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(23)</p></td><td><p>As there is a growing need for forensic and toxicological data and specialist expertise, matched by a need for better coordination between laboratories in the Member States, a network of forensic and toxicological laboratories knowledgeable in the area of drugs and drug-related harm should be set up.

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 ( 1 ) , and in particular Article 51 thereof, in conjunction with Articles 131 and 138 of the Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community,

COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION
of 12 July 2016
on the 2016 National Reform Programme of Ireland and delivering a Council opinion on the 2016 Stability Programme of Ireland
(2016/C 299/16)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Articles 121(2) and 148(4) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1466/97 of 7 July 1997 on the strengthening of the surveillance of budgetary positions and the surveillance and coordination of economic policies ( 1 ) , and in particular Article 5(2) thereof,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1176/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 November 2011 on the prevention and correction of macroeconomic imbalances ( 2 ) , and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,
Having regard to the recommendation of the European Commission,
Having regard to the resolutions of the European Parliament,
Having regard to the conclusions of the European Council,
Having regard to the opinion of the Employment Committee,
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Financial Committee,
Having regard to the opinion of the Social Protection Committee,
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic Policy Committee,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>On 26 November 2015, the Commission adopted the Annual Growth Survey, marking the start of the 2016 European Semester for economic policy coordination. The priorities of the Annual Growth Survey were endorsed by the European Council on 17-18 March 2016. On 26 November 2015, on the basis of Regulation (EU) No 1176/2011, the Commission adopted the Alert Mechanism Report, in which it identified Ireland as one of the Member States for which an in-depth review would be carried out. On the same day, the Commission adopted a recommendation for a Council Recommendation on the economic policy of the euro area. This Recommendation was endorsed by the European Council on 18-19 February 2016 and adopted by the Council on 8 March 2016<a> (<span>3</span>)</a>. As a country whose currency is the euro and in view of the close interlinkages between the economies in the economic and monetary union, Ireland should ensure the full and timely implementation of the Recommendation.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>The 2016 country report for Ireland was published on 26 February 2016. It assessed Ireland's progress in addressing the country-specific recommendations adopted by the Council on 14 July 2015 and Ireland's progress towards its national Europe 2020 targets. It also included the in-depth review under Article 5 of Regulation (EU) No 1176/2011. On 8 March 2016, the Commission presented the results of the in-depth review. The Commission's analysis leads it to conclude that Ireland is experiencing macroeconomic imbalances. In particular, it is essential to tackle the large stocks of net external liabilities and of public and private debt which constitute vulnerabilities, despite improvements.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>On 29 April 2016, Ireland submitted its 2016 National Reform Programme and its 2016 Stability Programme. In order to take account of their interlinkages, the two programmes have been assessed at the same time.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>Relevant country-specific recommendations have been addressed in the programming of the European Structural and Investment Funds for the 2014-2020 period. As foreseen in Article 23 of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council<a> (<span>4</span>)</a>, where it is necessary to support the implementation of relevant Council recommendations, the Commission may request a Member State to review and propose amendments to its Partnership Agreement and relevant programmes. The Commission has provided further details on how it would make use of this provision in guidelines on the application of the measures linking the effectiveness of the European Structural and Investment Funds to sound economic governance.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>Following the abrogation of the excessive deficit procedure, Ireland is in the preventive arm of the Stability and Growth Pact and subject to the transitional debt rule. In its 2016 Stability Programme, which is based on a no-policy-change assumption, the Government plans gradual improvements of the headline balance until reaching a surplus of 0,4 % of GDP in 2018. The revised medium-term budgetary objective — a structural deficit of 0,5 % of GDP — is expected to be reached in 2018. However, the annual change in the recalculated<a> (<span>5</span>)</a> structural balance of 0,1 % of GDP in 2016 does not ensure sufficient progress towards the medium-term budgetary objective. According to the Stability Programme, the government debt-to-GDP ratio is expected to fall to 88,2 % in 2016 and to continue declining to 85,5 % in 2017. The macroeconomic scenario underpinning these budgetary projections is plausible. However, the measures needed to support the planned deficit targets from 2017 onwards have not been sufficiently specified. Based on the Commission 2016 spring forecast, there is a risk of some deviation from the recommended fiscal adjustment in 2016, while Ireland is projected to be compliant in 2017 under unchanged policies. Ireland is forecast to comply with the transitional debt rule in 2016 and 2017. Based on its assessment of the Stability Programme and taking into account the Commission 2016 spring forecast, the Council is of the opinion that Ireland is expected to broadly comply with the provisions of the Stability and Growth Pact. Nevertheless, further measures will be needed to ensure compliance in 2016.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>Efforts to broaden the tax base have been limited and recent tax measures have focused on cuts and reliefs. Further progress should be made towards making the tax system more efficient and growth-friendly. The Irish authorities conduct a rolling programme of tax expenditure reviews, the results of which are published in an annual report. However, the review process does not cover VAT-related tax expenditures and there is still scope to broaden the tax base through increases in the least distortionary taxes.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>Cost-effectiveness, equal access and sustainability remain critical challenges to the healthcare system. Specific strands of reforms are progressing, but spending on pharmaceuticals, in particular owing to the high cost of single-supplier medicines, continues to weigh on cost effectiveness. Financial management and information systems remain weak and unequal access to primary care is still an issue. Approximately 40 % of the population has free access to general practitioners, while the rest bear the full cost. Significant uncertainty surrounds the broad reform of the healthcare system as the universal health insurance model is in a quandary.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>Infrastructure needs should be addressed in order to promote durable and balanced growth in the future. Following a peak of 5,2 % of GDP in 2008, public investment fell to a low of 1,8 % of GDP in 2013 before slightly recovering in 2014, when it was still well below the EU average. In addition, the crisis appears to have led to a structural shift in the composition of general government expenditure away from investment towards current spending. In 2010-2013, capital expenditure averaged only 4,8 % of the total, less than half the long-term average during 1995-2008. Seven years of sharply reduced government investment have had a negative impact on the quality and adequacy of infrastructure and the government support for intangible investments. There are key weaknesses in housing, water, public transport and climate change mitigation capacity. Demand for new housing currently exceeds supply by a wide margin in the country's main urban areas. As a result, residential property prices and rents in urban areas increased sharply in 2014, before growth slowed in 2015. There is currently no evidence of over-valuation, but constraints limiting the construction sector and the supply of housing, including some linked to public infrastructure, could generate risks of imbalances if they are not resolved. The shift in government expenditure has also affected public sector support to R & D and innovation, which was below 2007 levels in 2014. Currently, in terms of public R & D as a percentage of GDP, Ireland ranks 22nd in the Union. This has a negative impact on the competitiveness of SMEs.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>Unemployment has fallen below the EU average and in March 2016 stood at 8,6 %. However, long-term unemployment and the low work intensity of households remain sources of concern. In particular, although the rate of long-term unemployment has decreased over recent years, the proportion of unemployed who are long-term unemployed remains high at 56,3 % in the fourth quarter of 2015, above the EU average of 48,3 %. In 2014 (latest comparable data), the percentage of the population living in very low work intensity (VLWI) households was the highest in the EU at 21,1 % and was especially prevalent for single-parent households. The proportion of children (aged 0 to 17) at risk of poverty or social exclusion (AROPE) fell to 30,3 % in 2014 but remains higher than the EU average of 27,8 %. The corresponding AROPE figure for single-parent households (62,5 % in 2014) is much higher than the EU average (48,2 %).</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>Ireland has begun rollout of the JobPath Programme to address the needs of the long-term unemployed and is developing an activation approach to encourage those with the potential and desire to play a more active role in the labour force. The challenge remains to expand job support services to those traditionally excluded from the labour market, including people with a disability and those with caring responsibilities. Overall, the welfare system has worked well to contain the effects of the crisis on poverty and inequality, but barriers to inclusive growth remain. Some progress has been achieved in tapering benefits, but concerns persist about inactivity traps for certain households. As a percentage of wages, net childcare costs in Ireland are among the highest in the Union, the second highest for couples and the highest for single parents. Concerns remain over the quality of childcare provisions. For example, in 2014 the percentage of graduates working in the early childhood education and care sector (15 %) remained well below the recommended level. Skills mismatches remain and skills shortages have emerged in certain areas, while upskilling and reskilling opportunities remain insufficient, and the decrease in education expenditure could have a negative impact on educational outcomes in the future.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>The high leverage of the private sector reflects ongoing loan impairment issues. At the end of June 2015, private sector non-consolidated debt stood at 266,3 % of GDP, well above the euro area average. Although the non-performing loans ratio has been declining due to the economic recovery and restructuring activities, at the end of 2015 it remained among the highest in the euro area, at over 16 % of all domestic banks' loans. In addition, 14,7 % of the mortgage stock was in arrears at the end of 2015, while accounts in arrears of over two years represented almost 10 % of the total mortgage loan balance. While progress is being made, most mortgage restructuring is temporary, highlighting a risk of redefault, especially in the event of macroeconomic deterioration or external shock. Commercial real estate loans held by domestic banks and SME and business loans also remain areas of concern, with non-performing loan ratios of 37,3 % and 13,8 % respectively. While progress is being made, it will take much more time and effort to restructure these accounts sustainably. Personal insolvency procedures, bankruptcy, examinership (court protection under Irish law for companies in difficulty) and other means of partial debt relief intended to restore households and business to viability remain under-utilised. The introduction of the central credit registry has been slow, despite being critical to support prudent lending.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(12)</p></td><td><p>The Legal Services Regulation Act 2015 has been signed into law, but, at a late stage in the process, concessions were made to the legal professions that significantly reduced the initial ambition of the reform. Implementation of the new framework is only just starting and it is too early to be fully confident that it will boost competition and reduce costs. Legal services are an input to all sectors of the economy and their cost has a bearing on Ireland's competitiveness. An actual reduction in costs can be achieved only if the competition-enhancing and cost-reducing provisions of the planned regulatory framework become law following public consultation processes or incorporated in regulations to be issued by the Legal Services Regulatory Authority.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(13)</p></td><td><p>In the context of the European Semester, the Commission has carried out a comprehensive analysis of Ireland's economic policy and published it in the 2016 country report. It has also assessed the Stability Programme and the National Reform Programme and the follow-up given to the recommendations addressed to Ireland in previous years. It has taken into account not only their relevance for sustainable fiscal and socioeconomic policy in Ireland but also their compliance with EU rules and guidance, given the need to strengthen the EU's overall economic governance of the European Union by providing EU-level input into future national decisions. The recommendations under the European Semester are reflected in recommendations (1) to (3) below.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(14)</p></td><td><p>In the light of this assessment, the Council has examined the Stability Programme, and its opinion<a> (<span>6</span>)</a> is reflected in particular in recommendation (1) below.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(15)</p></td><td><p>In the light of the Commission's in-depth review and this assessment, the Council has examined the National Reform Programme and the Stability Programme.

HEREBY RECOMMENDS that Ireland take action in 2016 and 2017 to:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>1.</p></td><td><p>Following the correction of the excessive deficit, achieve an annual fiscal adjustment of 0,6 % of GDP towards the medium-term budgetary objective in 2016 and in 2017. Use windfall gains from strong economic and financial conditions, as well as from asset sales, to accelerate debt reduction. Reduce vulnerability to economic fluctuations and shocks, inter alia, by broadening the tax base. Enhance the quality of expenditure, particularly by increasing cost-effectiveness of healthcare and by prioritising government capital expenditure in R & D and in public infrastructure, in particular transport, water services and housing.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>2.</p></td><td><p>Expand and accelerate the implementation of activation policies to increase the work intensity of households and address the poverty risk of children. Pursue measures to incentivise employment by tapering the withdrawal of benefits and supplementary payments. Improve the provision of quality, affordable full-time childcare.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>3.</p></td><td><p>Finalise durable restructuring solutions to lower non-performing loans, to ensure debt sustainability of households and to encourage lenders to reduce the debt of excessively leveraged yet viable businesses. Accelerate the phasing-in of a fully operational central credit registry covering all categories of lenders and debtors.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

COMMISSION DELEGATED DIRECTIVE (EU) 2022/1326
of 18 March 2022
amending the Annex to Council Framework Decision 2004/757/JHA as regards the inclusion of new psychoactive substances in the definition of ‘drug’
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Framework Decision 2004/757/JHA of 25 October 2004 laying down minimum provisions on the constituent elements of criminal acts and penalties in the field of illicit drug trafficking ( 1 ) , and in particular Articles 1a and 8a thereof,
Whereas:
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(1)</p></td><td><p>Risk assessment reports on the new psychoactive substances 2-(methylamino)-1-(3-methylphenyl)propan-1-one (3-methylmethcathinone, 3-MMC) and 1-(3-chlorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)propan-1-one (3-chloromethcathinone, 3-CMC) were drawn up in compliance with Article 5c of Regulation (EC) No 1920/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council <a>(<span>2</span>)</a> by the Scientific Committee of the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA; the Centre), extended following the procedure laid down in Article 5c(4) of the same Regulation, on 18 and 19 November 2021. The Centre submitted the risk assessment reports to the Commission and to the Member States on 25 November 2021.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(2)</p></td><td><p>3-MMC and 3-CMC are synthetic cathinones with psychostimulant effects. They are derivatives of cathinone, and closely related to and sharing similar psychostimulant effects with methcathinone (ephedrone) and mephedrone (4-methylmethcathinone; 4-MMC) and, respectively, with methcathinone and 4-chloromethcathinone (4-CMC; clephedrone). Cathinone, methcathinone, mephedrone, and 4-CMC are controlled under the 1971 United Nations Convention on Psychotropic Substances.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(3)</p></td><td><p>3-MMC has been available in the European Union since at least 2012 and has been detected in 23 Member States. After a decline in seizures in Europe between 2016 and 2018, 3-MMC appears to have re-emerged with approximately 740 kilograms of it in powder form seized in 2020 and with continued importation, distribution, and use in 2021, including a single large-scale seizure of just over 120 kilograms of powder at an external Union border.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(4)</p></td><td><p>Information provided from seizures and collected samples show that 3-MMC is typically available on the drug market as a powder. Other physical forms, such as tablets and capsules, have also been reported, but to a much smaller extent.

<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(5)</p></td><td><p>A total of 27 deaths with confirmed exposure to 3-MMC have been reported by five Member States. Fourteen acute non-fatal poisonings with confirmed exposeure to 3-MMC have also been reported by four Member States.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(6)</p></td><td><p>3-CMC has been available in the European Union since at least 2014 and has been detected in 23 Member States. During 2020 and 2021, approximately 2 500 kilograms of 3-CMC in powder form was seized, representing over 90 % of the total quantity of 3-CMC powders seized since monitoring of the substance began in Europe.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(7)</p></td><td><p>Information provided from seizures and collected samples show that 3-CMC is typically available on the drug market as a powder. Other physical forms, such as tablets and capsules, have also been reported, but to a much smaller extent. Occasionally liquids, herbal material, and blotters containing 3-CMC have also been reported.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(8)</p></td><td><p>A total of 10 deaths with confirmed exposure to 3-CMC have been reported by two Member States. One acute non-fatal poisoning with confirmed exposeure to 3-CMC has also been reported by one Member State.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(9)</p></td><td><p>The available information suggests that while 3-MMC and 3-CMC are typically sold and sought after as stimulant drugs in their own right, at least in part it appears that these substances are being manufactured, imported, distributed, sold, and used as a ‘legal’ replacement to controlled stimulants, including amphetamine, cocaine, and MDMA. In addition, it may also be missold as other drugs.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(10)</p></td><td><p>There is limited information on the involvement of organised crime in the manufacture, trafficking, and distribution of 3-MMC and of 3-CMC within the Union. However, there is information to suggest criminal acts, such as trafficking, illicit production, and supply offences, involving both substances.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(11)</p></td><td><p>The available information suggests that 3-MMC and 3-CMC are manufactured by chemical companies outside the Union and imported into it on an industrial-scale. In addition, limited information indicates that some production has taken place in illicit laboratories in Europe.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(12)</p></td><td><p>3-MMC and 3-CMC have no recognised human or veterinary medical use in the Union nor, it appears, elsewhere. There are no indications that the substances may be used for any other purpose aside from as an analytical reference standard and in scientific research.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(13)</p></td><td><p>The health and social risks associated with 3-MMC and 3-CMC are likely to share some similarities with other closely related synthetic cathinones and psychostimulants under international control. The available evidence and information on the health and social risks that the substances pose provide sufficient ground for including 3-MMC and 3-CMC in the definition of ‘drug’. Nevertheless, the risk assessment reports reveal also that many of the questions related to 3-MMC and 3-CMC that are posed by the lack of data on the risks to individual health, risks to public health and social risks could be answered through further research.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(14)</p></td><td><p>3-MMC and 3-CMC are not listed for control under the 1961 United Nations Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, as amended by the 1972 Protocol, or under the 1971 United Nations Convention on Psychotropic Substances. 3-CMC has not yet been assessed under the United Nations system whereas 3-MMC has been subject to a non-conclusive critical review by the WHO Expert Committee on Drug Dependence in November 2016. The Committee was unable to reach consensus, and instead it deferred an opinion, and requested the Secretariat to arrange another critical review of 3- MMC at a subsequent meeting of the Expert Committee. A further ECDD review of 3-MMC has not taken place yet. Since this critical review in 2016, significant new information has been reported by the Member States that suggests that 3-MMC might pose health and social threats at Union level and thus needs to be added in the definition of ‘drug’ in Union law.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(15)</p></td><td><p>Information from law enforcement seizures that took place in 2020 and 2021 indicates that its availability and potential for diffusion within the Union of both 3-MMC and of 3-CMC has recently increased and may be significant. The available information would suggest that the consumption of 3-MMC and of 3-CMC causes harm to health associated with their acute toxicity and, in the case of 3-MMC, its abuse liability or dependence producing potential. Due to lack of studies, there is uncertainty on the dependence potential and abuse liability of 3-CMC. This harm to health is considered life-threatening because it may cause death or lethal injury, severe disease, severe physical or mental impairment or a spread of diseases, including the transmission of blood-borne viruses, such as hepatitis C and HIV. These effects are comparable with other closely related synthetic cathinones and psychostimulants under international control, although this requires further study.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(16)</p></td><td><p>The available information would also suggest that the consumption of 3-MMC and of 3-CMC could cause social risks and may result in marginalisation and increased vulnerability. Moreover, it also has a potential for a wider risk to public safety, notably in case of driving under the influence of these substances.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(17)</p></td><td><p>Fifteen Member States control 3-MMC under national drug control legislation, six Member States control it under new psychoactive substances legislation and one Member State controls it under other legislation. Thirteen Member States control 3-CMC under national drug control legislation, seven Member States control it under new psychoactive substances legislation and one Member State controls it under other legislation. Given that these national control measures are already in place, including 3-MMC and 3-CMC in the definition of ‘drug’ and thereby covering them by provisions on the criminal offences and sanctions as defined in Framework Decision 2004/757/JHA would help avoiding the emergence of obstacles in cross-border law enforcement and judicial cooperation, and would help protecting from the risks that their availability and use can pose.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(18)</p></td><td><p>Article 1a of Framework Decision 2004/757/JHA confers the power to adopt delegated acts upon the Commission with a view to giving a quick and expertise-based response at Union level to the emergence of new psychoactive substances detected and reported by the Member States, by amending the Annex to that Framework Decision to include those substances in the definition of ‘drug’.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>
<table><col/><col/><tbody><tr><td><p>(19)</p></td><td><p>As the conditions and procedure for triggering the exercise of the powers to adopt a delegated act have been met, a delegated directive should be adopted in order to include 3-MMC and 3-CMC in the Annex to Framework Decision 2004/757/JHA.</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community and amending Council Directive 96/61/EC
(Text with EEA relevance)
CHAPTER I
GENERAL PROVISIONS
Article 1
Subject matter
This Directive establishes a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Community scheme’) in order to promote reductions of greenhouse gas emissions in a cost-effective and economically efficient manner.
This Directive also provides for the reductions of greenhouse gas emissions to be increased so as to contribute to the levels of reductions that are considered scientifically necessary to avoid dangerous climate change.
This Directive also lays down provisions for assessing and implementing a stricter Community reduction commitment exceeding 20 %, to be applied upon the approval by the Community of an international agreement on climate change leading to greenhouse gas emission reductions exceeding those required in Article 9, as reflected in the 30 % commitment endorsed by the European Council of March 2007.
Article 2
Scope
1. This Directive shall apply to emissions from the activities listed in Annex I and greenhouse gases listed in Annex II.
2. This Directive shall apply without prejudice to any requirements pursuant to Directive 96/61/EC.
3. The application of this Directive to the airport of Gibraltar is understood to be without prejudice to the respective legal positions of the Kingdom of Spain and the United Kingdom with regard to the dispute over sovereignty over the territory in which the airport is situated.

The Commission shall undertake a study on the ability of the aviation sector to pass on the cost of CO 2 to its customers, in relation to the EU ETS and to the global market-based measure developed by the International Civil Aviation Organization (‘ICAO’). The study shall assess the ability of the aviation sector to pass on the cost of required emission units, comparing this to industries and to the power sector, with the intention of making a proposal to increase the percentage of auctioning pursuant to the review referred to in Article 28b(2), taking into account the analysis of costs passed on and considering alignment with other sectors and the competitiveness between different modes of transport.
3. A Regulation shall be adopted containing detailed provisions for the auctioning by Member States of allowances not required to be issued free of charge in accordance with paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Article or Article 3f(8). The number of allowances to be auctioned in each period by each Member State shall be proportionate to its share of the total attributed aviation emissions for all Member States for the reference year reported pursuant to Article 14(3) and verified pursuant to Article 15. For the period referred to in Article 3c(1), the reference year shall be 2010 and for each subsequent period referred to in Article 3c the reference year shall be the calendar year ending 24 months before the start of the period to which the auction relates.
That Regulation, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
4. All revenues generated from the auctioning of allowances should be used to tackle climate change in the Union and third countries, inter alia, to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, to adapt to the impacts of climate change in the Union and third countries, especially developing countries, to fund research and development for mitigation and adaptation, including in particular in the fields of aeronautics and air transport, to reduce emissions through low-emission transport and to cover the cost of administering the EU ETS. Auctioning revenues should also be used to fund common projects to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the aviation sector, such as the Single European Sky ATM Research (SESAR) Joint Undertaking and the Clean Sky Joint Technology Initiatives and any initiatives enabling the widespread use of GNSS for satellite-based navigation and interoperable capabilities within all Member States, in particular projects that improve air navigation infrastructure, the provision of air navigation services and the use of airspace. The proceeds of auctioning may also be used to fund contributions to the Global Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Fund, and measures to avoid deforestation. Special consideration shall be given by Member States that use those revenues for co-financing research and innovation to programmes or initiatives under the Ninth Research Framework Programme (‘FP9’). Transparency on the use of revenues generated from the auctioning of allowances under this Directive is essential to meeting Union commitments.
Member States shall inform the Commission of actions taken pursuant to the first subparagraph of this paragraph.
5. Information provided to the Commission pursuant to this Directive does not free Member States from the notification obligation laid down in Article 88(3) of the Treaty.
Article 3e
Allocation and issue of allowances to aircraft operators
1. For each period referred to in Article 3c, each aircraft operator may apply for an allocation of allowances that are to be allocated free of charge. An application may be made by submitting to the competent authority in the administering Member State verified tonne-kilometre data for the aviation activities listed in Annex I performed by that aircraft operator for the monitoring year. For the purposes of this Article, the monitoring year shall be the calendar year ending 24 months before the start of the period to which it relates in accordance with Annexes IV and V or, in relation to the period referred to in Article 3c(1), 2010. Any application shall be made at least 21 months before the start of the period to which it relates or, in relation to the period referred to in Article 3c(1), by 31 March 2011.
2. At least 18 months before the start of the period to which the application relates or, in relation to the period referred to in Article 3c(1), by 30 June 2011, Member States shall submit applications received under paragraph 1 to the Commission.
3. At least 15 months before the start of each period referred to in Article 3c(2) or, in relation to the period referred to in Article 3c(1), by 30 September 2011, the Commission shall calculate and adopt a decision setting out:
(a) the total quantity of allowances to be allocated for that period in accordance with Article 3c;
(b) the number of allowances to be auctioned in that period in accordance with Article 3d;
(c) the number of allowances in the special reserve for aircraft operators in that period in accordance with Article 3f(1);
(d) the number of allowances to be allocated free of charge in that period by subtracting the number of allowances referred to in points (b) and (c) from the total quantity of allowances decided upon under point (a); and
(e) the benchmark to be used to allocate allowances free of charge to aircraft operators whose applications were submitted to the Commission in accordance with paragraph 2.
The benchmark referred to in point (e), expressed as allowances per tonne-kilometre, shall be calculated by dividing the number of allowances referred to in point (d) by the sum of the tonne-kilometre data included in applications submitted to the Commission in accordance with paragraph 2.
4. Within three months from the date on which the Commission adopts a decision under paragraph 3, each administering Member State shall calculate and publish:
(a) the total allocation of allowances for the period to each aircraft operator whose application it submitted to the Commission in accordance with paragraph 2, calculated by multiplying the tonne-kilometre data included in the application by the benchmark referred to in paragraph 3(e); and
(b) the allocation of allowances to each aircraft operator for each year, which shall be determined by dividing its total allocation of allowances for the period calculated under point (a) by the number of years in the period for which that aircraft operator is performing an aviation activity listed in Annex I.
5. By 28 February 2012 and by 28 February of each subsequent year, the competent authority of the administering Member State shall issue to each aircraft operator the number of allowances allocated to that aircraft operator for that year under this Article or Article 3f.
Article 3f
Special reserve for certain aircraft operators
1. In each period referred to in Article 3c(2), 3 % of the total quantity of allowances to be allocated shall be set aside in a special reserve for aircraft operators:
(a) who start performing an aviation activity falling within Annex I after the monitoring year for which tonne-kilometre data was submitted under Article 3e(1) in respect of a period referred to in Article 3c(2); or
(b) whose tonne-kilometre data increases by an average of more than 18 % annually between the monitoring year for which tonne-kilometre data was submitted under Article 3e(1) in respect of a period referred to in Article 3c(2) and the second calendar year of that period;
and whose activity under point (a), or additional activity under point (b), is not in whole or in part a continuation of an aviation activity previously performed by another aircraft operator.
2. An aircraft operator who is eligible under paragraph 1 may apply for a free allocation of allowances from the special reserve by making an application to the competent authority of its administering Member State. Any application shall be made by 30 June in the third year of the period referred to in Article 3c(2) to which it relates.
An allocation to an aircraft operator under paragraph 1(b) shall not exceed 1 000 000 allowances.
3. An application under paragraph 2 shall:
(a) include verified tonne-kilometre data in accordance with Annexes IV and V for the aviation activities listed in Annex I performed by the aircraft operator in the second calendar year of the period referred to in Article 3c(2) to which the application relates;
(b) provide evidence that the criteria for eligibility under paragraph 1 are fulfilled; and
(c) in the case of aircraft operators falling within paragraph 1(b), state:
(i) the percentage increase in tonne-kilometres performed by that aircraft operator between the monitoring year for which tonne-kilometre data was submitted under Article 3e(1) in respect of a period referred to in Article 3c(2) and the second calendar year of that period;
(ii) the absolute growth in tonne-kilometres performed by that aircraft operator between the monitoring year for which tonne-kilometre data was submitted under Article 3e(1) in respect of a period referred to in Article 3c(2) and the second calendar year of that period; and
(iii) the absolute growth in tonne-kilometres performed by that aircraft operator between the monitoring year for which tonne-kilometre data was submitted under Article 3e(1) in respect of a period referred to in Article 3c(2) and the second calendar year of that period which exceeds the percentage specified in paragraph 1(b).
4. No later than six months from the deadline for making an application under paragraph 2, Member States shall submit applications received under that paragraph to the Commission.
5. No later than 12 months from the deadline for making an application under paragraph 2, the Commission shall decide on the benchmark to be used to allocate allowances free of charge to aircraft operators whose applications were submitted to the Commission in accordance with paragraph 4.
Subject to paragraph 6, the benchmark shall be calculated by dividing the number of the allowances in the special reserve by the sum of:
(a) the tonne-kilometre data for aircraft operators falling within paragraph 1(a) included in applications submitted to the Commission in accordance with paragraphs 3(a) and 4; and
(b) the absolute growth in tonne-kilometres exceeding the percentage specified in paragraph 1(b) for aircraft operators falling within paragraph 1(b) included in applications submitted to the Commission in accordance with paragraphs 3(c)(iii) and 4.
6. The benchmark referred to in paragraph 5 shall not result in an annual allocation per tonne-kilometre greater than the annual allocation per tonne-kilometre to aircraft operators under Article 3e(4).
7. Within three months from the date on which the Commission adopts a decision under paragraph 5, each administering Member State shall calculate and publish:
(a) the allocation of allowances from the special reserve to each aircraft operator whose application it submitted to the Commission in accordance with paragraph 4. This allocation shall be calculated by multiplying the benchmark referred to in paragraph 5 by:
(i) in the case of an aircraft operator falling within paragraph 1(a), the tonne-kilometre data included in the application submitted to the Commission under paragraphs 3(a) and 4;
(ii) in the case of an aircraft operator falling within paragraph 1(b), the absolute growth in tonne-kilometres exceeding the percentage specified in paragraph 1(b) included in the application submitted to the Commission under paragraphs 3(c)(iii) and 4; and
(b) the allocation of allowances to each aircraft operator for each year, which shall be determined by dividing its allocation of allowances under point (a) by the number of full calendar years remaining in the period referred to in Article 3c(2) to which the allocation relates.
8. Any unallocated allowances in the special reserve shall be auctioned by Member States.
9. The Commission may establish detailed rules on the operation of the special reserve under this Article, including the assessment of compliance with eligibility criteria under paragraph 1. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
Article 3g
Monitoring and reporting plans
The administering Member State shall ensure that each aircraft operator submits to the competent authority in that Member State a monitoring plan setting out measures to monitor and report emissions and tonne-kilometre data for the purpose of an application under Article 3e and that such plans are approved by the competent authority in accordance with the regulation referred to in Article 14 .
CHAPTER III
STATIONARY INSTALLATIONS
Article 3h
Scope
The provisions of this Chapter shall apply to greenhouse gas emissions permits and the allocation and issue of allowances in respect of activities listed in Annex I other than aviation activities.
Article 4
Greenhouse gas emissions permits
Member States shall ensure that, from 1 January 2005, no installation carries out any activity listed in Annex I resulting in emissions specified in relation to that activity unless its operator holds a permit issued by a competent authority in accordance with Articles 5 and 6, or the installation is excluded from the Community scheme pursuant to Article 27. This shall also apply to installations opted in under Article 24.
Article 5
Applications for greenhouse gas emissions permits
An application to the competent authority for a greenhouse gas emissions permit shall include a description of:
(a) the installation and its activities including the technology used;
(b) the raw and auxiliary materials, the use of which is likely to lead to emissions of gases listed in Annex I;
(c) the sources of emissions of gases listed in Annex I from the installation; and
(d) the measures planned to monitor and report emissions in accordance with the regulation referred to in Article 14.
The application shall also include a non-technical summary of the details referred to in the first subparagraph.
Article 6
Conditions for and contents of the greenhouse gas emissions permit
1. The competent authority shall issue a greenhouse gas emissions permit granting authorisation to emit greenhouse gases from all or part of an installation if it is satisfied that the operator is capable of monitoring and reporting emissions.
A greenhouse gas emissions permit may cover one or more installations on the same site operated by the same operator.
The competent authority shall, at least every five years, review the greenhouse gas emissions permit and make any amendments as are appropriate.
2. Greenhouse gas emissions permits shall contain the following:
(a) the name and address of the operator;
(b) a description of the activities and emissions from the installation;
(c) a monitoring plan that fulfils the requirements under the regulation referred to in Article 14. Member States may allow operators to update monitoring plans without changing the permit. Operators shall submit any updated monitoring plans to the competent authority for approval;
(d) reporting requirements; and
(e) an obligation to surrender allowances, other than allowances issued under Chapter II, equal to the total emissions of the installation in each calendar year, as verified in accordance with Article 15, within four months following the end of that year.
Article 7
Changes relating to installations
The operator shall inform the competent authority of any planned changes to the nature or functioning of the installation, or any extension or significant reduction of its capacity, which may require updating the greenhouse gas emissions permit. Where appropriate, the competent authority shall update the permit. Where there is a change in the identity of the installation's operator, the competent authority shall update the permit to include the name and address of the new operator.
Article 8
Coordination with Directive 96/61/EC
Member States shall take the necessary measures to ensure that, where installations carry out activities that are included in Annex I to Directive 96/61/EC, the conditions of, and procedure for, the issue of a greenhouse gas emissions permit are coordinated with those for the permit provided for in that Directive. The requirements of Articles 5, 6 and 7 of this Directive may be integrated into the procedures provided for in Directive 96/61/EC.
Article 9
Community-wide quantity of allowances
The Community-wide quantity of allowances issued each year starting in 2013 shall decrease in a linear manner beginning from the mid-point of the period from 2008 to 2012. The quantity shall decrease by a linear factor of 1,74 % compared to the average annual total quantity of allowances issued by Member States in accordance with the Commission Decisions on their national allocation plans for the period from 2008 to 2012. The Community-wide quantity of allowances will be increased as a result of Croatia's accession only by the quantity of allowances that Croatia shall auction pursuant to Article 10(1).
The Commission shall, by 30 June 2010, publish the absolute Community-wide quantity of allowances for 2013, based on the total quantities of allowances issued or to be issued by the Member States in accordance with the Commission Decisions on their national allocation plans for the period from 2008 to 2012.
The Commission shall review the linear factor and submit a proposal, where appropriate, to the European Parliament and to the Council as from 2020, with a view to the adoption of a decision by 2025.
Article 9a
Adjustment of the Community-wide quantity of allowances
1. In respect of installations that were included in the Community scheme during the period from 2008 to 2012 pursuant to Article 24(1), the quantity of allowances to be issued from 1 January 2013 shall be adjusted to reflect the average annual quantity of allowances issued in respect of those installations during the period of their inclusion, adjusted by the linear factor referred to in Article 9.
2. In respect of installations carrying out activities listed in Annex I, which are only included in the Community scheme from 2013 onwards, Member States shall ensure that the operators of such installations submit to the relevant competent authority duly substantiated and independently verified emissions data in order for them to be taken into account for the adjustment of the Community-wide quantity of allowances to be issued.
Any such data shall be submitted, by 30 April 2010, to the relevant competent authority in accordance with the provisions adopted pursuant to Article 14(1).
If the data submitted are duly substantiated, the competent authority shall notify the Commission thereof by 30 June 2010 and the quantity of allowances to be issued, adjusted by the linear factor referred to in Article 9, shall be adjusted accordingly. In the case of installations emitting greenhouse gases other than CO 2 , the competent authority may notify a lower amount of emissions according to the emission reduction potential of those installations.
3. The Commission shall publish the adjusted quantities referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 by 30 September 2010.
4. In respect of installations which are excluded from the Community scheme in accordance with Article 27, the Community-wide quantity of allowances to be issued from 1 January 2013 shall be adjusted downwards to reflect the average annual verified emissions of those installations in the period from 2008 to 2010, adjusted by the linear factor referred to in Article 9.
Article 10
Auctioning of allowances
1. From 2019 onwards, Member States shall auction all allowances that are not allocated free of charge in accordance with Articles 10a and 10c and are not placed in the market stability reserve established by Decision (EU) 2015/1814 of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 1 ).
1a. Where the volume of allowances to be auctioned by Member States in the last year of each period referred to in Article 13(1) of this Directive exceeds by more than 30 % the expected average auction volume for the first two years of the following period before application of Article 1(5) of Decision (EU) 2015/1814, two thirds of the difference between the volumes shall be deducted from the auction volumes in the last year of the period and added in equal instalments to the volumes to be auctioned by Member States in the first two years of the following period.
2. The total quantity of allowances to be auctioned by each Member State shall be composed as follows:
(a) 88 % of the total quantity of allowances to be auctioned being distributed amongst Member States in shares that are identical to the share of verified emissions under the Community scheme for 2005 or the average of the period from 2005 to 2007, whichever one is the highest, of the Member State concerned;
(b) 10 % of the total quantity of allowances to be auctioned being distributed amongst certain Member States for the purpose of solidarity and growth within the Community, thereby increasing the amount of allowances that those Member States auction under point (a) by the percentages specified in Annex IIa; and
(c) 2 % of the total quantity of allowances to be auctioned being distributed amongst Member States the greenhouse gas emissions of which were, in 2005, at least 20 % below their emissions in the base year applicable to them under the Kyoto Protocol. The distribution of this percentage amongst the Member States concerned is set out in Annex IIb.
For the purposes of point (a), in respect of Member States which did not participate in the Community scheme in 2005, their share shall be calculated using their verified emissions under the Community scheme in 2007.
If necessary, the percentages referred to in points (b) and (c) shall be adapted in a proportional manner to ensure that the distribution is 10 % and 2 % respectively.
3. Member States shall determine the use of revenues generated from the auctioning of allowances. At least 50 % of the revenues generated from the auctioning of allowances referred to in paragraph 2, including all revenues from the auctioning referred to in paragraph 2, points (b) and (c), or the equivalent in financial value of these revenues, should be used for one or more of the following:
(a) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, including by contributing to the Global Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Fund and to the Adaptation Fund as made operational by the Poznan Conference on Climate Change (COP 14 and COP/MOP 4), to adapt to the impacts of climate change and to fund research and development as well as demonstration projects for reducing emissions and for adaptation to climate change, including participation in initiatives within the framework of the European Strategic Energy Technology Plan and the European Technology Platforms;
(b) to develop renewable energies to meet the commitment of the Community to using 20 % renewable energies by 2020, as well as to develop other technologies contributing to the transition to a safe and sustainable low-carbon economy and to help meet the commitment of the Community to increase energy efficiency by 20 % by 2020;
(c) measures to avoid deforestation and increase afforestation and reforestation in developing countries that have ratified the international agreement on climate change, to transfer technologies and to facilitate adaptation to the adverse effects of climate change in these countries;
(d) forestry sequestration in the Community;
(e) the environmentally safe capture and geological storage of CO 2 , in particular from solid fossil fuel power stations and a range of industrial sectors and subsectors, including in third countries;
(f) to encourage a shift to low-emission and public forms of transport;
(g) to finance research and development in energy efficiency and clean technologies in the sectors covered by this Directive;
(h) measures intended to increase energy efficiency and insulation or to provide financial support in order to address social aspects in lower and middle income households;
(i) to cover administrative expenses of the management of the Community scheme.
Member States shall be deemed to have fulfilled the provisions of this paragraph if they have in place and implement fiscal or financial support policies, including in particular in developing countries, or domestic regulatory policies, which leverage financial support, established for the purposes set out in the first subparagraph and which have a value equivalent to at least 50 % of the revenues generated from the auctioning of allowances referred to in paragraph 2, including all revenues from the auctioning referred to in paragraph 2, points (b) and (c).
Member States shall inform the Commission as to the use of revenues and the actions taken pursuant to this paragraph in their reports submitted under Decision No 280/2004/EC.
4. By 30 June 2010, the Commission shall adopt a regulation on timing, administration and other aspects of auctioning to ensure that it is conducted in an open, transparent, harmonised and non-discriminatory manner. To this end, the process should be predictable, in particular as regards the timing and sequencing of auctions and the estimated volumes of allowances to be made available. Where an assessment shows for the individual industrial sectors that no significant impact on sectors or subsectors exposed to a significant risk of carbon leakage is to be expected, the Commission may, in exceptional circumstances, adapt the timetable for the period referred to in Article 13(1) beginning on 1 January 2013 so as to ensure the orderly functioning of the market. The Commission shall make no more than one such adaptation for a maximum number of 900 million allowances.
Auctions shall be designed to ensure that:
(a) operators, and in particular any SMEs covered by the Community scheme, have full, fair and equitable access;
(b) all participants have access to the same information at the same time and that participants do not undermine the operation of the auction;
(c) the organisation and participation in auctions is cost-efficient and undue administrative costs are avoided; and
(d) access to allowances is granted for small emitters.
That measure, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
Member States shall report on the proper implementation of the auctioning rules for each auction, in particular with respect to fair and open access, transparency, price formation and technical and operational aspects. These reports shall be submitted within one month of the auction concerned and shall be published on the Commission's website.
5. The Commission shall monitor the functioning of the European carbon market. Each year, it shall submit a report to the European Parliament and to the Council on the functioning of the carbon market including the implementation of the auctions, liquidity and the volumes traded. If necessary, Member States shall ensure that any relevant information is submitted to the Commission at least two months before the Commission adopts the report.
Article 10a
Transitional Community-wide rules for harmonised free allocation
1. By 31 December 2010, the Commission shall adopt Community-wide and fully-harmonised implementing measures for the allocation of the allowances referred to in paragraphs 4, 5, 7 and 12, including any necessary provisions for a harmonised application of paragraph 19.
Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
The measures referred to in the first subparagraph shall, to the extent feasible, determine Community-wide ex-ante benchmarks so as to ensure that allocation takes place in a manner that provides incentives for reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and energy efficient techniques, by taking account of the most efficient techniques, substitutes, alternative production processes, high efficiency cogeneration, efficient energy recovery of waste gases, use of biomass and capture and storage of CO 2 , where such facilities are available, and shall not provide incentives to increase emissions. No free allocation shall be made in respect of any electricity production, except for cases falling within Article 10c and electricity produced from waste gases.
For each sector and subsector, in principle, the benchmark shall be calculated for products rather than for inputs, in order to maximise greenhouse gas emissions reductions and energy efficiency savings throughout each production process of the sector or the subsector concerned.
In defining the principles for setting ex-ante benchmarks in individual sectors and subsectors, the Commission shall consult the relevant stakeholders, including the sectors and subsectors concerned.
The Commission shall, upon the approval by the Community of an international agreement on climate change leading to mandatory reductions of greenhouse gas emissions comparable to those of the Community, review those measures to provide that free allocation is only to take place where this is fully justified in the light of that agreement.
2. In defining the principles for setting ex-ante benchmarks in individual sectors or subsectors, the starting point shall be the average performance of the 10 % most efficient installations in a sector or subsector in the Community in the years 2007-2008. The Commission shall consult the relevant stakeholders, including the sectors and subsectors concerned.
The regulations pursuant to Articles 14 and 15 shall provide for harmonised rules on monitoring, reporting and verification of production-related greenhouse gas emissions with a view to determining the ex-ante benchmarks.
3. Subject to paragraphs 4 and 8, and notwithstanding Article 10c, no free allocation shall be given to electricity generators, to installations for the capture of CO 2 , to pipelines for transport of CO 2 or to CO 2 storage sites.
4. Free allocation shall be given to district heating as well as to high efficiency cogeneration, as defined by Directive 2004/8/EC, for economically justifiable demand, in respect of the production of heating or cooling. In each year subsequent to 2013, the total allocation to such installations in respect of the production of that heat shall be adjusted by the linear factor referred to in Article 9.
5. The maximum annual amount of allowances that is the basis for calculating allocations to installations which are not covered by paragraph 3 and are not new entrants shall not exceed the sum of:
(a) the annual Community-wide total quantity, as determined pursuant to Article 9, multiplied by the share of emissions from installations not covered by paragraph 3 in the total average verified emissions, in the period from 2005 to 2007, from installations covered by the Community scheme in the period from 2008 to 2012; and
(b) the total average annual verified emissions from installations in the period from 2005 to 2007 which are only included in the Community scheme from 2013 onwards and are not covered by paragraph 3, adjusted by the linear factor, as referred to in Article 9.
A uniform cross-sectoral correction factor shall be applied if necessary.
6. Member States may also adopt financial measures in favour of sectors or subsectors determined to be exposed to a significant risk of carbon leakage due to costs relating to greenhouse gas emissions passed on in electricity prices, in order to compensate for those costs and where such financial measures are in accordance with state aid rules applicable and to be adopted in this area.
Those measures shall be based on ex-ante benchmarks of the indirect emissions of CO 2 per unit of production. The ex-ante benchmarks shall be calculated for a given sector or subsector as the product of the electricity consumption per unit of production corresponding to the most efficient available technologies and of the CO 2 emissions of the relevant European electricity production mix.
7. Five percent of the Community-wide quantity of allowances determined in accordance with Articles 9 and 9a over the period from 2013 to 2020 shall be set aside for new entrants, as the maximum that may be allocated to new entrants in accordance with the rules adopted pursuant to paragraph 1 of this Article. Allowances in this Community-wide reserve that are neither allocated to new entrants nor used pursuant to paragraph 8, 9 or 10 of this Article over the period from 2013 to 2020 shall be auctioned by the Member States, taking into account the level to which installations in Member States have benefited from this reserve, in accordance with Article 10(2) and, for detailed arrangements and timing, Article 10(4), and the relevant implementing provisions.
Allocations shall be adjusted by the linear factor referred to in Article 9.
No free allocation shall be made in respect of any electricity production by new entrants.
By 31 December 2010, the Commission shall adopt harmonised rules for the application of the definition of ‘new entrant’, in particular in relation to the definition of ‘significant extensions’.
Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
8. Up to 300 million allowances in the new entrants' reserve shall be available until 31 December 2015 to help stimulate the construction and operation of up to 12 commercial demonstration projects that aim at the environmentally safe capture and geological storage (CCS) of CO 2 as well as demonstration projects of innovative renewable energy technologies, in the territory of the Union.
The allowances shall be made available for support for demonstration projects that provide for the development, in geographically balanced locations, of a wide range of CCS and innovative renewable energy technologies that are not yet commercially viable. Their award shall be dependent upon the verified avoidance of CO 2 emissions.
Projects shall be selected on the basis of objective and transparent criteria that include requirements for knowledge-sharing. Those criteria and the measures shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3), and shall be made available to the public.
Allowances shall be set aside for the projects that meet the criteria referred to in the third subparagraph. Support for these projects shall be given via Member States and shall be complementary to substantial co-financing by the operator of the installation. They could also be co-financed by the Member State concerned, as well as by other instruments. No project shall receive support via the mechanism under this paragraph that exceeds 15 % of the total number of allowances available for this purpose. These allowances shall be taken into account under paragraph 7.
9. Lithuania, which, pursuant to Article 1 of Protocol No 4 on the Ignalina nuclear power plant in Lithuania, annexed to the 2003 Act of Accession, has committed to the closure of unit 2 of the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant by 31 December 2009, may, if the total verified emissions of Lithuania in the period from 2013 to 2015 within the Community scheme exceed the sum of the free allowances issued to installations in Lithuania for electricity production emissions in that period and three-eighths of the allowances to be auctioned by Lithuania for the period from 2013 to 2020, claim allowances from the new entrants reserve for auctioning in accordance with the regulation referred to in Article 10(4). The maximum amount of such allowances shall be equivalent to the excess emissions in that period to the extent that this excess is due to increased emissions from electricity generation, minus any quantity by which allocations in that Member State in the period from 2008 to 2012 exceeded verified emissions within the Community scheme in Lithuania during that period. Any such allowances shall be taken into account under paragraph 7.
10. Any Member State with an electricity network which is interconnected with Lithuania and which, in 2007, imported more than 15 % of its domestic electricity consumption from Lithuania for its own consumption, and where emissions have increased due to investment in new electricity generation, may apply paragraph 9 mutatis mutandis under the conditions set out in that paragraph.
11. Subject to Article 10b, the amount of allowances allocated free of charge under paragraphs 4 to 7 of this Article in 2013 shall be 80 % of the quantity determined in accordance with the measures referred to in paragraph 1. Thereafter the free allocation shall decrease each year by equal amounts resulting in 30 % free allocation in 2020, with a view to reaching no free allocation in 2027.
12. Subject to Article 10b, in 2013 and in each subsequent year up to 2020, installations in sectors or subsectors which are exposed to a significant risk of carbon leakage shall be allocated, pursuant to paragraph 1, allowances free of charge at 100 % of the quantity determined in accordance with the measures referred to in paragraph 1.
13. By 31 December 2009 and every five years thereafter, after discussion in the European Council, the Commission shall determine a list of the sectors or subsectors referred to in paragraph 12 on the basis of the criteria referred to in paragraphs 14 to 17.
Every year the Commission may, at its own initiative or at the request of a Member State, add a sector or subsector to the list referred to in the first subparagraph if it can be demonstrated, in an analytical report, that this sector or subsector satisfies the criteria in paragraphs 14 to 17, following a change that has a substantial impact on the sector’s or subsector’s activities.
For the purpose of implementing this Article, the Commission shall consult the Member States, the sectors or subsectors concerned and other relevant stakeholders.
Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
14. In order to determine the sectors or subsectors referred to in paragraph 12, the Commission shall assess, at Community level, the extent to which it is possible for the sector or subsector concerned, at the relevant level of disaggregation, to pass on the direct cost of the required allowances and the indirect costs from higher electricity prices resulting from the implementation of this Directive into product prices without significant loss of market share to less carbon efficient installations outside the Community. These assessments shall be based on an average carbon price according to the Commission’s impact assessment accompanying the package of implementation measures for the EU’s objectives on climate change and renewable energy for 2020 and, if available, trade, production and value added data from the three most recent years for each sector or subsector.
15. A sector or subsector shall be deemed to be exposed to a significant risk of carbon leakage if:
(a) the sum of direct and indirect additional costs induced by the implementation of this Directive would lead to a substantial increase of production costs, calculated as a proportion of the gross value added, of at least 5 %; and
(b) the intensity of trade with third countries, defined as the ratio between the total value of exports to third countries plus the value of imports from third countries and the total market size for the Community (annual turnover plus total imports from third countries), is above 10 %.
16. Notwithstanding paragraph 15, a sector or subsector is also deemed to be exposed to a significant risk of carbon leakage if:
(a) the sum of direct and indirect additional costs induced by the implementation of this Directive would lead to a particularly high increase of production costs, calculated as a proportion of the gross value added, of at least 30 %; or
(b) the intensity of trade with third countries, defined as the ratio between the total value of exports to third countries plus the value of imports from third countries and the total market size for the Community (annual turnover plus total imports from third countries), is above 30 %.
17. The list referred to in paragraph 13 may be supplemented after completion of a qualitative assessment, taking into account, where the relevant data are available, the following criteria:
(a) the extent to which it is possible for individual installations in the sector or subsector concerned to reduce emission levels or electricity consumption, including, as appropriate, the increase in production costs that the related investment may entail, for instance on the basis of the most efficient techniques;
(b) current and projected market characteristics, including when trade exposure or direct and indirect cost increase rates are close to one of the thresholds mentioned in paragraph 16;
(c) profit margins as a potential indicator of long-run investment or relocation decisions.
18. The list referred to in paragraph 13 shall be determined after taking into account, where the relevant data are available, the following:
(a) the extent to which third countries, representing a decisive share of global production of products in sectors or subsectors deemed to be at risk of carbon leakage, firmly commit to reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the relevant sectors or subsectors to an extent comparable to that of the Community and within the same time-frame; and
(b) the extent to which the carbon efficiency of installations located in these countries is comparable to that of the Community.
19. No free allocation shall be given to an installation that has ceased its operations, unless the operator demonstrates to the competent authority that this installation will resume production within a specified and reasonable time. Installations for which the greenhouse gas emissions permit has expired or has been withdrawn and installations for which the operation or resumption of operation is technically impossible shall be considered to have ceased operations.
20. The Commission shall, as part of the measures adopted under paragraph 1, include measures for defining installations that partially cease to operate or significantly reduce their capacity, and measures for adapting, as appropriate, the level of free allocations given to them accordingly.
Article 10b
Measures to support certain energy-intensive industries in the event of carbon leakage
1. By 30 June 2010, the Commission shall, in the light of the outcome of the international negotiations and the extent to which these lead to global greenhouse gas emission reductions, and after consulting with all relevant social partners, submit to the European Parliament and to the Council an analytical report assessing the situation with regard to energy-intensive sectors or subsectors that have been determined to be exposed to significant risks of carbon leakage. This shall be accompanied by any appropriate proposals, which may include:
(a) adjustment of the proportion of allowances received free of charge by those sectors or subsectors under Article 10a;
(b) inclusion in the Community scheme of importers of products which are produced by the sectors or subsectors determined in accordance with Article 10a;
(c) assessment of the impact of carbon leakage on Member States’ energy security, in particular where the electricity connections with the rest of the Union are insufficient and where there are electricity connections with third countries, and appropriate measures in this regard.
Any binding sectoral agreements which lead to global greenhouse gas emissions reductions of the magnitude required to effectively address climate change, and which are monitorable, verifiable and subject to mandatory enforcement arrangements shall also be taken into account when considering what measures are appropriate.
2. The Commission shall assess, by 31 March 2011, whether the decisions made regarding the proportion of allowances received free of charge by sectors or subsectors in accordance with paragraph 1, including the effect of setting ex-ante benchmarks in accordance with Article 10a(2), are likely to significantly affect the quantity of allowances to be auctioned by Member States in accordance with Article 10(2)(b), compared to a scenario with full auctioning for all sectors in 2020. It shall, if appropriate, submit adequate proposals to the European Parliament and to the Council, taking into account the possible distributional effects of such proposals.
Article 10c
Option for transitional free allocation for the modernisation of electricity generation
1. By derogation from Article 10a(1) to (5), Member States may give a transitional free allocation to installations for electricity production in operation by 31 December 2008 or to installations for electricity production for which the investment process was physically initiated by the same date, provided that one of the following conditions is met:
(a) in 2007, the national electricity network was not directly or indirectly connected to the network interconnected system operated by the Union for the Coordination of Transmission of Electricity (UCTE);
(b) in 2007, the national electricity network was only directly or indirectly connected to the network operated by UCTE through a single line with a capacity of less than 400 MW; or
(c) in 2006, more than 30 % of electricity was produced from a single fossil fuel, and the GDP per capita at market price did not exceed 50 % of the average GDP per capita at market price of the Community.
The Member State concerned shall submit to the Commission a national plan that provides for investments in retrofitting and upgrading of the infrastructure and clean technologies. The national plan shall also provide for the diversification of their energy mix and sources of supply for an amount equivalent, to the extent possible, to the market value of the free allocation with respect to the intended investments, while taking into account the need to limit as far as possible directly linked price increases. The Member State concerned shall submit to the Commission, every year, a report on investments made in upgrading infrastructure and clean technologies. Investment undertaken from 25 June 2009 may be counted for this purpose.
2. Transitional free allocations shall be deducted from the quantity of allowances that the respective Member State would otherwise auction pursuant to Article 10(2). In 2013, the total transitional free allocation shall not exceed 70 % of the annual average verified emissions in 2005-2007 from such electricity generators for the amount corresponding to the gross final national consumption of the Member State concerned and shall gradually decrease, resulting in no free allocation in 2020. For those Member States which did not participate in the Community scheme in 2005, the relevant emissions shall be calculated using their verified Community scheme emissions under the Community scheme in 2007.
The Member State concerned may determine that the allowances allocated pursuant to this Article may only be used by the operator of the installation concerned for surrendering allowances pursuant to Article 12(3) with respect to emissions of the same installation during the year for which the allowances are allocated.
3. Allocations to operators shall be based on the allocation under the verified emissions in 2005-2007 or an ex-ante efficiency benchmark based on the weighted average of emission levels of most greenhouse gas efficient electricity production covered by the Community scheme for installations using different fuels. The weighting may reflect the shares of the different fuels in electricity production in the Member State concerned. The Commission shall, in accordance with the regulatory procedure referred to in Article 23(2), provide guidance to ensure that the allocation methodology avoids undue distortions of competition and minimises negative impacts on the incentives to reduce emissions.
4. Any Member State applying this Article shall require benefiting electricity generators and network operators to report every 12 months on the implementation of their investments referred to in the national plan. Member States shall report on this to the Commission and shall make such reports public.
5. Any Member State that intends to allocate allowances on the basis of this Article shall, by 30 September 2011, submit to the Commission an application containing the proposed allocation methodology and individual allocations. An application shall contain:
(a) evidence that the Member State meets at least one of the conditions set out in paragraph 1;
(b) a list of the installations covered by the application and the amount of allowances to be allocated to each installation in accordance with paragraph 3 and the Commission guidance;
(c) the national plan referred to in the second subparagraph of paragraph 1;
(d) monitoring and enforcement provisions with respect to the intended investments pursuant to the national plan;
(e) information showing that the allocations do not create undue distortions of competition.
6. The Commission shall assess the application taking into account the elements set out in paragraph 5 and may reject the application, or any aspect thereof, within six months of receiving the relevant information.
7. Two years before the end of the period during which a Member State may give transitional free allocation to installations for electricity production in operation by 31 December 2008, the Commission shall assess the progress made in the implementation of the national plan. If the Commission considers, on request of the Member State concerned, that there is a need for a possible extension of that period, it may submit to the European Parliament and to the Council appropriate proposals, including the conditions that would have to be met in the case of an extension of that period.
Article 11
National implementation measures
1. Each Member State shall publish and submit to the Commission, by 30 September 2011, the list of installations covered by this Directive in its territory and any free allocation to each installation in its territory calculated in accordance with the rules referred to in Article 10a(1) and Article 10c.
2. By 28 February of each year, the competent authorities shall issue the quantity of allowances that are to be allocated for that year, calculated in accordance with Articles 10, 10a and 10c.
3. Member States may not issue allowances free of charge under paragraph 2 to installations whose inscription in the list referred to in paragraph 1 has been rejected by the Commission.
CHAPTER IV
PROVISIONS APPLYING TO AVIATION AND STATIONARY INSTALLATIONS
Article 11a
Use of CERs and ERUs from project activities in the Community scheme before the entry into force of an international agreement on climate change
1. Without prejudice to the application of Article 28(3) and (4), paragraphs 2 to 7 of this Article shall apply.
2. To the extent that the levels of CER and ERU use, allowed to operators or aircraft operators by Member States for the period from 2008 to 2012, have not been used up or an entitlement to use credits is granted under paragraph 8, operators may request the competent authority to issue allowances to them valid from 2013 onwards in exchange for CERs and ERUs issued in respect of emission reductions up until 2012 from project types which were eligible for use in the Community scheme during the period from 2008 to 2012.
Until 31 March 2015, the competent authority shall make such an exchange on request.
3. To the extent that the levels of CER and ERU use, allowed to operators or aircraft operators by Member States for the period from 2008 to 2012, have not been used up or an entitlement to use credits is granted under paragraph 8, competent authorities shall allow operators to exchange CERs and ERUs from projects that were registered before 2013 issued in respect of emission reductions from 2013 onwards for allowances valid from 2013 onwards.
The first subparagraph shall apply to CERs and ERUs for all project types which were eligible for use in the Community scheme during the period from 2008 to 2012.
4. To the extent that the levels of CER and ERU use, allowed to operators or aircraft operators by Member States for the period from 2008 to 2012, have not been used up or an entitlement to use credits is granted under paragraph 8, competent authorities shall allow operators to exchange CERs issued in respect of emission reductions from 2013 onwards for allowances from new projects started from 2013 onwards in LDCs.
The first subparagraph shall apply to CERs for all project types which were eligible for use in the Community scheme during the period from 2008 to 2012, until those countries have ratified a relevant agreement with the Community or until 2020, whichever is the earlier.
5. To the extent that the levels of CER and ERU use, allowed to operators or aircraft operators by Member States for the period from 2008 to 2012, have not been used up or an entitlement to use credits is granted under paragraph 8 and in the event that the negotiations on an international agreement on climate change are not concluded by 31 December 2009, credits from projects or other emission reducing activities may be used in the Community scheme in accordance with agreements concluded with third countries, specifying levels of use. In accordance with such agreements, operators shall be able to use credits from project activities in those third countries to comply with their obligations under the Community scheme.
6. Any agreements referred to in paragraph 5 shall provide for the use of credits in the Community scheme from project types which were eligible for use in the Community scheme during the period from 2008 to 2012, including renewable energy or energy efficiency technologies which promote technological transfer and sustainable development. Any such agreement may also provide for the use of credits from projects where the baseline used is below the level of free allocation under the measures referred to in Article 10a or below the levels required by Community legislation.
7. Once an international agreement on climate change has been reached, only credits from projects from third countries which have ratified that agreement shall be accepted in the Community scheme from 1 January 2013.
8. All existing operators shall be allowed to use credits during the period from 2008 to 2020 up to either the amount allowed to them during the period from 2008 to 2012, or to an amount corresponding to a percentage, which shall not be set below 11 %, of their allocation during the period from 2008 to 2012, whichever is the highest.
Operators shall be able to use credits beyond the 11 % provided for in the first subparagraph, up to an amount which results in their combined free allocation in the period from 2008 to 2012 and overall project credits entitlement equal to a certain percentage of their verified emissions in the period from 2005 to 2007.
New entrants, including new entrants in the period from 2008 to 2012 which received neither free allocation nor an entitlement to use CERs and ERUs in the period from 2008-2012, and new sectors shall be able to use credits up to an amount corresponding to a percentage, which shall not be set below 4,5 %, of their verified emissions during the period from 2013 to 2020. Aircraft operators shall be able to use credits up to an amount corresponding to a percentage, which shall not be set below 1,5 %, of their verified emissions during the period from 2013 to 2020.
Measures shall be adopted to specify the exact percentages which shall apply under the first, second and third subparagraphs. At least one-third of the additional amount which is to be distributed to existing operators beyond the first percentage referred to in the first subparagraph shall be distributed to the operators which had the lowest level of combined average free allocation and project credit use in the period from 2008 to 2012.
Those measures shall ensure that the overall use of credits allowed does not exceed 50 % of the Community-wide reductions below the 2005 levels of the existing sectors under the Community scheme over the period from 2008 to 2020 and 50 % of the Community-wide reductions below the 2005 levels of new sectors and aviation over the period from the date of their inclusion in the Community scheme to 2020.
Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
9. From 1 January 2013, measures may be applied to restrict the use of specific credits from project types.
Those measures shall also set the date from which the use of credits under paragraphs 1 to 4 shall be in accordance with these measures. That date shall be, at the earliest, six months from the adoption of the measures or, at the latest, three years from their adoption.
Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3). The Commission shall consider submitting to the Committee a draft of the measures to be taken where a Member State so requests.
Article 11b
Project activities
1. Member States shall take all necessary measures to ensure that baselines for project activities, as defined by subsequent decisions adopted under the UNFCCC or the Kyoto Protocol, undertaken in countries having signed a Treaty of Accession with the Union fully comply with the acquis communautaire , including the temporary derogations set out in that Treaty of Accession.
The Community and its Member States shall only authorise project activities where all project participants have headquarters either in a country that has concluded the international agreement relating to such projects or in a country or sub-federal or regional entity which is linked to the Community scheme pursuant to Article 25.
2. Except as provided for in paragraphs 3 and 4, Member States hosting project activities shall ensure that no ERUs or CERs are issued for reductions or limitations of greenhouse gas emissions from activities falling within the scope of this Directive.
3. Until 31 December 2012, for JI and CDM project activities which reduce or limit directly the emissions of an installation falling within the scope of this Directive, ERUs and CERs may be issued only if an equal number of allowances is cancelled by the operator of that installation.
4. Until 31 December 2012, for JI and CDM project activities which reduce or limit indirectly the emission level of installations falling within the scope of this Directive, ERUs and CERs may be issued only if an equal number of allowances is cancelled from the national registry of the Member State of the ERUs’ or CERs’ origin.
5. A Member State that authorises private or public entities to participate in project activities shall remain responsible for the fulfilment of its obligations under the UNFCCC and the Kyoto Protocol and shall ensure that such participation is consistent with the relevant guidelines, modalities and procedures adopted pursuant to the UNFCCC or the Kyoto Protocol.
6. In the case of hydroelectric power production project activities with a generating capacity exceeding 20 MW, Member States shall, when approving such project activities, ensure that relevant international criteria and guidelines, including those contained in the World Commission on Dams November 2000 Report ‘Dams and Development — A New Framework for Decision-Making’, will be respected during the development of such project activities.
7. Provisions for the implementation of paragraphs 3 and 4, particularly in respect of the avoidance of double counting, shall be adopted by the Commission in accordance with the regulatory procedure referred to in Article 23(2). The Commission shall adopt provisions for the implementation of paragraph 5 of this Article where the host party meets all eligibility requirements for JI project activities. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive, by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
Article 12
Transfer, surrender and cancellation of allowances
1. Member States shall ensure that allowances can be transferred between:
(a) persons within the Community;
(b) persons within the Community and persons in third countries, where such allowances are recognised in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 25 without restrictions other than those contained in, or adopted pursuant to, this Directive.
1a. The Commission shall, by 31 December 2010, examine whether the market for emissions allowances is sufficiently protected from insider dealing or market manipulation and, if appropriate, shall bring forward proposals to ensure such protection. The relevant provisions of Directive 2003/6/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 January 2003 on insider dealing and market manipulation (market abuse) ( 2 ) may be used with any appropriate adjustments needed to apply them to trade in commodities.
2. Member States shall ensure that allowances issued by a competent authority of another Member State are recognised for the purpose of meeting an aircraft operator’s obligations under paragraph 2a or of meeting an operator's obligations under paragraph 3.
2a. Administering Member States shall ensure that, by 30 April each year, each aircraft operator surrenders a number of allowances equal to the total emissions during the preceding calendar year from aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator, as verified in accordance with Article 15. Member States shall ensure that allowances surrendered in accordance with this paragraph are subsequently cancelled.
3. For the period until 31 December 2020, Member States shall ensure that, by 30 April each year, the operator of each installation surrenders a number of allowances, other than allowances issued under Chapter II, that is equal to the total emissions from that installation during the preceding calendar year as verified in accordance with Article 15, and that those allowances are subsequently cancelled. For the period starting from 1 January 2021, Member States shall ensure that, by 30 April each year, the operator of each installation surrenders a number of allowances, that is equal to the total emissions from that installation during the preceding calendar year as verified in accordance with Article 15, and that those allowances are subsequently cancelled, subject to the review referred to in Article 28b.
3-a. Where necessary, and for as long as is necessary, in order to protect the environmental integrity of the EU ETS, aircraft operators and other operators in the EU ETS shall be prohibited from using allowances that are issued by a Member State in respect of which there are obligations lapsing for aircraft operators and other operators. The legal act referred to in Article 19 shall include the measures necessary in the cases referred to in this paragraph.
3a. An obligation to surrender allowances shall not arise in respect of emissions verified as captured and transported for permanent storage to a facility for which a permit is in force in accordance with Directive 2009/31/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2009 on the geological storage of carbon dioxide ( 3 ).
4. Member States shall take the necessary steps to ensure that allowances will be cancelled at any time at the request of the person holding them.
5. Paragraphs 1 and 2 apply without prejudice to Article 10c.
Article 13
Validity of allowances
1. Allowances issued from 1 January 2013 onwards shall be valid for emissions during periods of eight years beginning on 1 January 2013.
2. Four months after the beginning of each period referred to in paragraph 1, allowances which are no longer valid and have not been surrendered and cancelled in accordance with Article 12 shall be cancelled by the competent authority.
Member States shall issue allowances to persons for the current period to replace any allowances held by them which are cancelled in accordance with the first subparagraph. Similarly, allowances held in the market stability reserve and which are no longer valid shall be replaced by allowances which are valid for the current period.
Article 14
Monitoring and reporting of emissions
1. By 31 December 2011, the Commission shall adopt a regulation for the monitoring and reporting of emissions and, where relevant, activity data, from the activities listed in Annex I, for the monitoring and reporting of tonne-kilometre data for the purpose of an application under Articles 3e or 3f, which shall be based on the principles for monitoring and reporting set out in Annex IV and shall specify the global warming potential of each greenhouse gas in the requirements for monitoring and reporting emissions for that gas.
That measure, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
2. The regulation referred to in paragraph 1 shall take into account the most accurate and up-to-date scientific evidence available, in particular from the IPCC, and may also specify requirements for operators to report on emissions associated with the production of goods produced by energy intensive industries which may be subject to international competition. That regulation may also specify requirements for this information to be verified independently.
Those requirements may include reporting on levels of emissions from electricity generation covered by the Community scheme associated with the production of such goods.
3. Member States shall ensure that each operator of an installation or an aircraft operator monitors and reports the emissions from that installation during each calendar year, or, from 1 January 2010, the aircraft which it operates, to the competent authority after the end of that year in accordance with the regulation referred to in paragraph 1.
4. The regulation referred to in paragraph 1 may include requirements on the use of automated systems and data exchange formats to harmonise communication on the monitoring plan, the annual emission report and the verification activities between the operator, the verifier and competent authorities.
Article 15
Verification and accreditation
Member States shall ensure that the reports submitted by operators and aircraft operators pursuant to Article 14(3) are verified in accordance with the criteria set out in Annex V and any detailed provisions adopted by the Commission in accordance with this Article, and that the competent authority is informed thereof.
Member States shall ensure that an operator or aircraft operator whose report has not been verified as satisfactory in accordance with the criteria set out in Annex V and any detailed provisions adopted by the Commission in accordance with this Article by 31 March each year for emissions during the preceding year cannot make further transfers of allowances until a report from that operator or aircraft operator has been verified as satisfactory.
The Commission may adopt detailed provisions for the verification of reports submitted by aircraft operators pursuant to Article 14(3) and applications under Articles 3e and 3f, including the verification procedures to be used by verifiers, in accordance with the regulatory procedure referred to in Article 23(2).
By 31 December 2011, the Commission shall adopt a regulation for the verification of emission reports based on the principles set out in Annex V and for the accreditation and supervision of verifiers. It shall specify conditions for the accreditation and withdrawal of accreditation, for mutual recognition and peer evaluation of accreditation bodies, as appropriate.
That measure, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
Article 15a
Disclosure of information and professional secrecy
Member States and the Commission shall ensure that all decisions and reports relating to the quantity and allocation of allowances and to the monitoring, reporting and verification of emissions are immediately disclosed in an orderly manner ensuring non-discriminatory access.
Information covered by professional secrecy may not be disclosed to any other person or authority except by virtue of the applicable laws, regulations or administrative provisions.
Article 16
Penalties
1. Member States shall lay down the rules on penalties applicable to infringements of the national provisions adopted pursuant to this Directive and shall take all measures necessary to ensure that such rules are implemented. The penalties provided for must be effective, proportionate and dissuasive. Member States shall notify these provisions to the Commission —————31 December 2003————— and shall notify it without delay of any subsequent amendment affecting them.
2. Member States shall ensure publication of the names of operators and aircraft operators who are in breach of requirements to surrender sufficient allowances under this Directive.
3. Member States shall ensure that any operator or aircraft operator who does not surrender sufficient allowances by 30 April of each year to cover its emissions during the preceding year shall be held liable for the payment of an excess emissions penalty. The excess emissions penalty shall be EUR 100 for each tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent emitted for which the operator or aircraft operator has not surrendered allowances. Payment of the excess emissions penalty shall not release the operator or aircraft operator from the obligation to surrender an amount of allowances equal to those excess emissions when surrendering allowances in relation to the following calendar year.
4. The excess emissions penalty relating to allowances issued from 1 January 2013 onwards shall increase in accordance with the European index of consumer prices.
5. In the event that an aircraft operator fails to comply with the requirements of this Directive and where other enforcement measures have failed to ensure compliance, its administering Member State may request the Commission to decide on the imposition of an operating ban on the aircraft operator concerned.
6. Any request by an administering Member State under paragraph 5 shall include:
(a) evidence that the aircraft operator has not complied with its obligations under this Directive;
(b) details of the enforcement action which has been taken by that Member State;
(c) a justification for the imposition of an operating ban at Community level; and
(d) a recommendation for the scope of an operating ban at Community level and any conditions that should be applied.
7. When requests such as those referred to in paragraph 5 are addressed to the Commission, the Commission shall inform the other Member States through their representatives on the Committee referred to in Article 23(1) in accordance with the Committee’s Rules of Procedure.
8. The adoption of a decision following a request pursuant to paragraph 5 shall be preceded, when appropriate and practicable, by consultations with the authorities responsible for regulatory oversight of the aircraft operator concerned. Whenever possible, consultations shall be held jointly by the Commission and the Member States.
9. When the Commission is considering whether to adopt a decision following a request pursuant to paragraph 5, it shall disclose to the aircraft operator concerned the essential facts and considerations which form the basis for such decision. The aircraft operator concerned shall be given an opportunity to submit written comments to the Commission within 10 working days from the date of disclosure.
10. At the request of a Member State, the Commission may, in accordance with the regulatory procedure referred to in Article 23(2), adopt a decision to impose an operating ban on the aircraft operator concerned.
11. Each Member State shall enforce, within its territory, any decisions adopted under paragraph 10. It shall inform the Commission of any measures taken to implement such decisions.
12. Where appropriate, detailed rules shall be established in respect of the procedures referred to in this Article. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
Article 17
Access to information
Decisions relating to the allocation of allowances, information on project activities in which a Member State participates or authorises private or public entities to participate, and the reports of emissions required under the greenhouse gas emissions permit and held by the competent authority, shall be made available to the public in accordance with Directive 2003/4/EC.
Article 18
Competent authority
Member States shall make the appropriate administrative arrangements, including the designation of the appropriate competent authority or authorities, for the implementation of the rules of this Directive. Where more than one competent authority is designated, the work of these authorities undertaken pursuant to this Directive must be coordinated.
Member States shall in particular ensure coordination between their designated focal point for approving project activities pursuant to Article 6 (1)(a) of the Kyoto Protocol and their designated national authority for the implementation of Article 12 of the Kyoto Protocol respectively designated in accordance with subsequent decisions adopted under the UNFCCC or the Kyoto Protocol.
Article 18a
Administering Member State
1. The administering Member State in respect of an aircraft operator shall be:
(a) in the case of an aircraft operator with a valid operating licence granted by a Member State in accordance with the provisions of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2407/92 of 23 July 1992 on licensing of air carriers ( 4 ), the Member State which granted the operating licence in respect of that aircraft operator; and
(b) in all other cases, the Member State with the greatest estimated attributed aviation emissions from flights performed by that aircraft operator in the base year.
2. Where in the first two years of any period referred to in Article 3c, none of the attributed aviation emissions from flights performed by an aircraft operator falling within paragraph 1(b) of this Article are attributed to its administering Member State, the aircraft operator shall be transferred to another administering Member State in respect of the next period. The new administering Member State shall be the Member State with the greatest estimated attributed aviation emissions from flights performed by that aircraft operator during the first two years of the previous period.
3. Based on the best available information, the Commission shall:
(a) before 1 February 2009, publish a list of aircraft operators which performed an aviation activity listed in Annex I on or after 1 January 2006 specifying the administering Member State for each aircraft operator in accordance with paragraph 1; and
(b) before 1 February of each subsequent year, update the list to include aircraft operators which have subsequently performed an aviation activity listed in Annex I.

Article 24
Procedures for unilateral inclusion of additional activities and gases
1. From 2008, Member States may apply emission allowance trading in accordance with this Directive to activities and to greenhouse gases which are not listed in Annex I, taking into account all relevant criteria, in particular the effects on the internal market, potential distortions of competition, the environmental integrity of the Community scheme and the reliability of the planned monitoring and reporting system, provided that inclusion of such activities and greenhouse gases is approved by the Commission
(a) in accordance with the regulatory procedure referred to in Article 23(2), if the inclusion refers to installations which are not covered by Annex I; or
(b) in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3), if the inclusion refers to activities and greenhouse gases which are not listed in Annex I. Those measures are designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it.
2. When the inclusion of additional activities and gases is approved, the Commission may at the same time authorise the issue of additional allowances and may authorise other Member States to include such additional activities and gases.
3. On the initiative of the Commission or at the request of a Member State, a regulation may be adopted on the monitoring of, and reporting on, emissions concerning activities, installations and greenhouse gases which are not listed as a combination in Annex I, if that monitoring and reporting can be carried out with sufficient accuracy.
That measure, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
Article 24a
Harmonised rules for projects that reduce emissions
1. In addition to the inclusions provided for in Article 24, implementing measures for issuing allowances or credits in respect of projects administered by Member States that reduce greenhouse gas emissions not covered by the Community scheme may be adopted.
Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
Any such measures shall not result in the double-counting of emission reductions nor impede the undertaking of other policy measures to reduce emissions not covered by the Community scheme. Measures shall only be adopted where inclusion is not possible in accordance with Article 24, and the next review of the Community scheme shall consider harmonising the coverage of those emissions across the Community.
2. Implementing measures that set out the details for crediting in respect of Community-level projects referred to in paragraph 1 may be adopted.
Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
3. A Member State can refuse to issue allowances or credits in respect of certain types of projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions on its own territory.
Such projects will be executed on the basis of the agreement of the Member State in which the project takes place.
Article 25
Links with other greenhouse gas emissions trading schemes
1. Agreements should be concluded with third countries listed in Annex B to the Kyoto Protocol which have ratified the Protocol to provide for the mutual recognition of allowances between the Community scheme and other greenhouse gas emissions trading schemes in accordance with the rules set out in Article 300 of the Treaty.
1a. Agreements may be made to provide for the recognition of allowances between the Community scheme and compatible mandatory greenhouse gas emissions trading systems with absolute emissions caps established in any other country or in sub-federal or regional entities.
1b. Non-binding arrangements may be made with third countries or with sub-federal or regional entities to provide for administrative and technical coordination in relation to allowances in the Community scheme or other mandatory greenhouse gas emissions trading systems with absolute emissions caps.
2. Where an agreement referred to in paragraph 1 has been concluded, the Commission shall adopt any necessary provisions relating to the mutual recognition of allowances under that agreement. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive, by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
Article 25a
Third country measures to reduce the climate change impact of aviation
1. Where a third country adopts measures for reducing the climate change impact of flights departing from that country which land in the Community, the Commission, after consulting with that third country, and with Member States within the Committee referred to in Article 23(1), shall consider options available in order to provide for optimal interaction between the Community scheme and that country’s measures.
Where necessary, the Commission may adopt amendments to provide for flights arriving from the third country concerned to be excluded from the aviation activities listed in Annex I or to provide for any other amendments to the aviation activities listed in Annex I which are required by an agreement pursuant to the fourth subparagraph. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
The Commission may propose to the European Parliament and the Council any other amendments to this Directive.
The Commission may also, where appropriate, make recommendations to the Council in accordance with Article 300(1) of the Treaty to open negotiations with a view to concluding an agreement with the third country concerned.
2. The Community and its Member States shall continue to seek an agreement on global measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from aviation. In the light of any such agreement, the Commission shall consider whether amendments to this Directive as it applies to aircraft operators are necessary.
Article 26
Amendment of Directive 96/61/EC
In Article 9(3) of Directive 96/61/EC the following subparagraphs shall be added:
‘Where emissions of a greenhouse gas from an installation are specified in Annex I to Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community and amending Council Directive 96/61/EC ( *1 ) in relation to an activity carried out in that installation, the permit shall not include an emission limit value for direct emissions of that gas unless it is necessary to ensure that no significant local pollution is caused.
For activities listed in Annex I to Directive 2003/87/EC, Member States may choose not to impose requirements relating to energy efficiency in respect of combustion units or other units emitting carbon dioxide on the site.
Where necessary, the competent authorities shall amend the permit as appropriate.
The three preceding subparagraphs shall not apply to installations temporarily excluded from the scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community in accordance with Article 27 of Directive 2003/87/EC.
Article 27
Exclusion of small installations subject to equivalent measures
1. Following consultation with the operator, Member States may exclude from the Community scheme installations which have reported to the competent authority emissions of less than 25 000 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent and, where they carry out combustion activities, have a rated thermal input below 35 MW, excluding emissions from biomass, in each of the three years preceding the notification under point (a), and which are subject to measures that will achieve an equivalent contribution to emission reductions, if the Member State concerned complies with the following conditions:
(a) it notifies the Commission of each such installation, specifying the equivalent measures applying to that installation that will achieve an equivalent contribution to emission reductions that are in place, before the list of installations pursuant to Article 11(1) has to be submitted and at the latest when this list is submitted to the Commission;
(b) it confirms that monitoring arrangements are in place to assess whether any installation emits 25 000 tonnes or more of carbon dioxide equivalent, excluding emissions from biomass, in any one calendar year. Member States may allow simplified monitoring, reporting and verification measures for installations with average annual verified emissions between 2008 and 2010 which are below 5 000 tonnes a year, in accordance with Article 14;
(c) it confirms that if any installation emits 25 000 tonnes or more of carbon dioxide equivalent, excluding emissions from biomass, in any one calendar year or the measures applying to that installation that will achieve an equivalent contribution to emission reductions are no longer in place, the installation will be reintroduced into the Community scheme;
(d) it publishes the information referred to in points (a), (b) and (c) for public comment.
Hospitals may also be excluded if they undertake equivalent measures.
2. If, following a period of three months from the date of notification for public comment, the Commission does not object within a further period of six months, the exclusion shall be deemed approved.
Following the surrender of allowances in respect of the period during which the installation is in the Community scheme, the installation shall be excluded and the Member State shall no longer issue free allowances to the installation pursuant to Article 10a.
3. When an installation is reintroduced into the Community scheme pursuant to paragraph 1(c), any allowances issued pursuant to Article 10a shall be granted starting with the year of the reintroduction. Allowances issued to these installations shall be deducted from the quantity to be auctioned pursuant to Article 10(2) by the Member State in which the installation is situated.
Any such installation shall stay in the Community scheme for the rest of the trading period.
4. For installations which have not been included in the Community scheme during the period from 2008 to 2012, simplified requirements for monitoring, reporting and verification may be applied for determining emissions in the three years preceding the notification under paragraph 1 point (a).
Article 28
Adjustments applicable upon the approval by the Community of an international agreement on climate change
1. Within three months of the signature by the Community of an international agreement on climate change leading, by 2020, to mandatory reductions of greenhouse gas emissions exceeding 20 % compared to 1990 levels, as reflected in the 30 % reduction commitment as endorsed by the European Council of March 2007, the Commission shall submit a report assessing, in particular, the following elements:
(a) the nature of the measures agreed upon in the framework of the international negotiations as well as the commitments made by other developed countries to comparable emission reductions to those of the Community and the commitments made by economically more advanced developing countries to contributing adequately according to their responsibilities and respective capabilities;
(b) the implications of the international agreement on climate change, and consequently, options required at Community level, in order to move to the more ambitious 30 % reduction target in a balanced, transparent and equitable way, taking into account work under the Kyoto Protocol's first commitment period;
(c) the Community manufacturing industries' competitiveness in the context of carbon leakage risks;
(d) the impact of the international agreement on climate change on other Community economic sectors;
(e) the impact on the Community agriculture sector, including carbon leakage risks;
(f) the appropriate modalities for including emissions and removals related to land use, land use change and forestry in the Community;
(g) afforestation, reforestation, avoided deforestation and forest degradation in third countries in the event of the establishment of any internationally recognised system in this context;
(h) the need for additional Community policies and measures in view of the greenhouse gas reduction commitments of the Community' and of Member States.
2. On the basis of the report referred to in paragraph 1, the Commission shall, as appropriate, submit a legislative proposal to the European Parliament and to the Council amending this Directive pursuant to paragraph 1, with a view to the amending Directive entering into force upon the approval by the Community of the international agreement on climate change and in view of the emission reduction commitment to be implemented under that agreement.
The proposal shall be based upon the principles of transparency, economic efficiency and cost-effectiveness, as well as fairness and solidarity in the distribution of efforts between Member States.
3. The proposal shall allow, as appropriate, operators to use, in addition to the credits provided for in this Directive, CERs, ERUs or other approved credits from third countries which have ratified the international agreement on climate change.
4. The proposal shall also include, as appropriate, any other measures needed to help reach the mandatory reductions in accordance with paragraph 1 in a transparent, balanced and equitable way and, in particular, shall include implementing measures to provide for the use of additional types of project credits by operators in the Community scheme to those referred to in paragraphs 2 to 5 of Article 11a or the use by such operators of other mechanisms created under the international agreement on climate change, as appropriate.
5. The proposal shall include the appropriate transitional and suspensive measures pending the entry into force of the international agreement on climate change.
Article 28a
Derogations applicable in advance of the implementation of the ICAO's global market-based measure

Article 30
Review and further development
1. On the basis of progress achieved in the monitoring of emissions of greenhouse gases, the Commission may make a proposal to the European Parliament and the Council by 31 December 2004 to amend Annex I to include other activities and emissions of other greenhouse gases listed in Annex II.
2. On the basis of experience of the application of this Directive and of progress achieved in the monitoring of emissions of greenhouse gases and in the light of developments in the international context, the Commission shall draw up a report on the application of this Directive, considering:
(a) how and whether Annex I should be amended to include other relevant sectors, inter alia the chemicals, aluminium and transport sectors, activities and emissions of other greenhouse gases listed in Annex II, with a view to further improving the economic efficiency of the scheme;
(b) the relationship of Community emission allowance trading with the international emissions trading that will start in 2008;
(c) further harmonisation of the method of allocation (including auctioning for the time after 2012) and of the criteria for national allocation plans referred to in Annex III;
(d) the use of credits from project activities, including the need for harmonisation of the allowed use of ERUs and CERs in the Community scheme;
(e) the relationship of emissions trading with other policies and measures implemented at Member State and Community level, including taxation, that pursue the same objectives;
(f) whether it is appropriate for there to be a single Community registry;
(g) the level of excess emissions penalties, taking into account, inter alia , inflation;
(h) the functioning of the allowance market, covering in particular any possible market disturbances;
(i) how to adapt the Community scheme to an enlarged European Union;
(j) pooling;
(k) the practicality of developing Community-wide benchmarks as a basis for allocation, taking into account the best available techniques and cost-benefit analysis;
(l) the impact of project mechanisms on host countries, particularly on their development objectives, whether JI and CDM hydroelectric power production project activities with a generating capacity exceeding 500 MW and having negative environmental or social impacts have been approved, and the future use of CERs or ERUs resulting from any such hydroelectric power production project activities in the Community scheme;
(m) the support for capacity-building efforts in developing countries and countries with economies in transition;
(n) the modalities and procedures for Member States' approval of domestic project activities and for the issuing of allowances in respect of emission reductions or limitations resulting from such activities from 2008;
(o) technical provisions relating to the temporary nature of credits and the limit of 1 % for eligibility for land use, land-use change and forestry project activities as established in Decision 17/CP.7, and provisions relating to the outcome of the evaluation of potential risks associated with the use of genetically modified organisms and potentially invasive alien species by afforestation and reforestation project activities, to allow operators to use CERs and ERUs resulting from land use, land-use change and forestry project activities in the Community scheme from 2008, in accordance with the decisions adopted pursuant to the UNFCCC or the Kyoto Protocol.
The Commission shall submit this report to the European Parliament and the Council by 30 June 2006, accompanied by proposals as appropriate.
3. In advance of each period referred to in Article 11(2), each Member State shall publish in its national allocation plan its intended use of ERUs and CERs and the percentage of the allocation to each installation up to which operators are allowed to use ERUs and CERs in the Community scheme for that period. The total use of ERUs and CERs shall be consistent with the relevant supplementarity obligations under the Kyoto Protocol and the UNFCCC and the decisions adopted thereunder.
Member States shall, in accordance with Article 3 of Decision No 280/2004/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 February 2004 concerning a mechanism for monitoring Community greenhouse gas emissions and for implementing the Kyoto Protocol ( 6 ), report to the Commission every two years on the extent to which domestic action actually constitutes a significant element of the efforts undertaken at national level, as well as the extent to which use of the project mechanisms is actually supplemental to domestic action, and the ratio between them, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Kyoto Protocol and the decisions adopted thereunder. The Commission shall report on this in accordance with Article 5 of the said Decision. In the light of this report, the Commission shall, if appropriate, make legislative or other proposals to complement provisions adopted by Member States to ensure that use of the mechanisms is supplemental to domestic action within the Community.

ANNEX IV
PRINCIPLES FOR MONITORING AND REPORTING REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 14(1)
PART A — Monitoring and reporting of emissions from stationary installations
Monitoring of carbon dioxide emissions
Emissions shall be monitored either by calculation or on the basis of measurement.
Calculation
Calculations of emissions shall be performed using the formula:
Activity data × Emission factor × Oxidation factor
Activity data (fuel used, production rate etc.) shall be monitored on the basis of supply data or measurement.
Accepted emission factors shall be used. Activity-specific emission factors are acceptable for all fuels. Default factors are acceptable for all fuels except non-commercial ones (waste fuels such as tyres and industrial process gases). Seam-specific defaults for coal, and EU-specific or producer country-specific defaults for natural gas shall be further elaborated. IPCC default values are acceptable for refinery products. The emission factor for biomass shall be zero.
If the emission factor does not take account of the fact that some of the carbon is not oxidised, then an additional oxidation factor shall be used. If activity-specific emission factors have been calculated and already take oxidation into account, then an oxidation factor need not be applied.
Default oxidation factors developed pursuant to Directive 96/61/EC shall be used, unless the operator can demonstrate that activity-specific factors are more accurate.
A separate calculation shall be made for each activity, installation and for each fuel.
Measurement
Measurement of emissions shall use standardised or accepted methods, and shall be corroborated by a supporting calculation of emissions.
Monitoring of emissions of other greenhouse gases
Standardised or accepted methods shall be used, developed by the Commission in collaboration with all relevant stakeholders. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive, by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(3).
Reporting of emissions
Each operator shall include the following information in the report for an installation:
A. Data identifying the installation, including:
— Name of the installation;
— Its address, including postcode and country;
— Type and number of Annex I activities carried out in the installation;
— Address, telephone, fax and email details for a contact person; and
— Name of the owner of the installation, and of any parent company.
B. For each Annex I activity carried out on the site for which emissions are calculated:
— Activity data;
— Emission factors;
— Oxidation factors;
— Total emissions; and
— Uncertainty.
C. For each Annex I activity carried out on the site for which emissions are measured:
— Total emissions;
— Information on the reliability of measurement methods; and
— Uncertainty.
D. For emissions from combustion, the report shall also include the oxidation factor, unless oxidation has already been taken into account in the development of an activity-specific emission factor.
Member States shall take measures to coordinate reporting requirements with any existing reporting requirements in order to minimise the reporting burden on businesses.
PART B — Monitoring and reporting of emissions from aviation activities
Monitoring of carbon dioxide emissions
Emissions shall be monitored by calculation. Emissions shall be calculated using the formula:
Fuel consumption × emission factor
Fuel consumption shall include fuel consumed by the auxiliary power unit. Actual fuel consumption for each flight shall be used wherever possible and shall be calculated using the formula:
Amount of fuel contained in aircraft tanks once fuel uplift for the flight is complete – amount of fuel contained in aircraft tanks once fuel uplift for subsequent flight is complete + fuel uplift for that subsequent flight.
If actual fuel consumption data are not available, a standardised tiered method shall be used to estimate fuel consumption data based on best available information.
Default IPCC emission factors, taken from the 2006 IPCC Inventory Guidelines or subsequent updates of these Guidelines, shall be used unless activity-specific emission factors identified by independent accredited laboratories using accepted analytical methods are more accurate. The emission factor for biomass shall be zero.
A separate calculation shall be made for each flight and for each fuel.
Reporting of emissions
Each aircraft operator shall include the following information in its report under Article 14(3):
A. Data identifying the aircraft operator, including:
— name of the aircraft operator,
— its administering Member State,
— its address, including postcode and country and, where different, its contact address in the administering Member State,
— the aircraft registration numbers and types of aircraft used in the period covered by the report to perform the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator,
— the number and issuing authority of the air operator certificate and operating licence under which the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator were performed,
— address, telephone, fax and e-mail details for a contact person, and
— name of the aircraft owner.
B. For each type of fuel for which emissions are calculated:
— fuel consumption,
— emission factor,
— total aggregated emissions from all flights performed during the period covered by the report which fall within the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator,
— aggregated emissions from:
— — all flights performed during the period covered by the report which fall within the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator and which departed from an aerodrome situated in the territory of a Member State and arrived at an aerodrome situated in the territory of the same Member State,
— all other flights performed during the period covered by the report which fall within the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator,
— aggregated emissions from all flights performed during the period covered by the report which fall within the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator and which:
— — departed from each Member State, and
— arrived in each Member State from a third country,
— uncertainty.
Monitoring of tonne-kilometre data for the purpose of Articles 3e and 3f
For the purpose of applying for an allocation of allowances in accordance with Article 3e(1) or Article 3f(2), the amount of aviation activity shall be calculated in tonne-kilometres using the following formula:
tonne-kilometres = distance × payload
where:
‘distance’ means the great circle distance between the aerodrome of departure and the aerodrome of arrival plus an additional fixed factor of 95 km; and
‘payload’ means the total mass of freight, mail and passengers carried.
For the purposes of calculating the payload:
— the number of passengers shall be the number of persons on-board excluding crew members,
— an aircraft operator may choose to apply either the actual or standard mass for passengers and checked baggage contained in its mass and balance documentation for the relevant flights or a default value of 100 kg for each passenger and his checked baggage.
Reporting of tonne-kilometre data for the purpose of Articles 3e and 3f
Each aircraft operator shall include the following information in its application under Article 3e(1) or Article 3f(2):
A. Data identifying the aircraft operator, including:
— name of the aircraft operator,
— its administering Member State,
— its address, including postcode and country and, where different, its contact address in the administering Member State,
— the aircraft registration numbers and types of aircraft used during the year covered by the application to perform the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator,
— the number and issuing authority of the air operator certificate and operating licence under which the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator were performed,
— address, telephone, fax and e-mail details for a contact person, and
— name of the aircraft owner.
B. Tonne-kilometre data:
— number of flights by aerodrome pair,
— number of passenger-kilometres by aerodrome pair,
— number of tonne-kilometres by aerodrome pair,
— chosen method for calculation of mass for passengers and checked baggage,
— total number of tonne-kilometres for all flights performed during the year to which the report relates falling within the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator.
ANNEX V
CRITERIA FOR VERIFICATION REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 15
PART A — Verification of emissions from stationary installations
General Principles
1. Emissions from each activity listed in Annex I shall be subject to verification.
2. The verification process shall include consideration of the report pursuant to Article 14(3) and of monitoring during the preceding year. It shall address the reliability, credibility and accuracy of monitoring systems and the reported data and information relating to emissions, in particular:
(a) the reported activity data and related measurements and calculations;
(b) the choice and the employment of emission factors;
(c) the calculations leading to the determination of the overall emissions; and
(d) if measurement is used, the appropriateness of the choice and the employment of measuring methods.
3. Reported emissions may only be validated if reliable and credible data and information allow the emissions to be determined with a high degree of certainty. A high degree of certainty requires the operator to show that:
(a) the reported data is free of inconsistencies;
(b) the collection of the data has been carried out in accordance with the applicable scientific standards; and
(c) the relevant records of the installation are complete and consistent.
4. The verifier shall be given access to all sites and information in relation to the subject of the verification.
5. The verifier shall take into account whether the installation is registered under the Community eco-management and audit scheme (EMAS).
Methodology
Strategic analysis
6. The verification shall be based on a strategic analysis of all the activities carried out in the installation. This requires the verifier to have an overview of all the activities and their significance for emissions.
Process analysis
7. The verification of the information submitted shall, where appropriate, be carried out on the site of the installation. The verifier shall use spot-checks to determine the reliability of the reported data and information.
Risk analysis
8. The verifier shall submit all the sources of emissions in the installation to an evaluation with regard to the reliability of the data of each source contributing to the overall emissions of the installation.
9. On the basis of this analysis the verifier shall explicitly identify those sources with a high risk of error and other aspects of the monitoring and reporting procedure which are likely to contribute to errors in the determination of the overall emissions. This especially involves the choice of the emission factors and the calculations necessary to determine the level of the emissions from individual sources. Particular attention shall be given to those sources with a high risk of error and the abovementioned aspects of the monitoring procedure.
10. The verifier shall take into consideration any effective risk control methods applied by the operator with a view to minimising the degree of uncertainty.
Report
11. The verifier shall prepare a report on the validation process stating whether the report pursuant to Article 14(3) is satisfactory. This report shall specify all issues relevant to the work carried out. A statement that the report pursuant to Article 14(3) is satisfactory may be made if, in the opinion of the verifier, the total emissions are not materially misstated.
Minimum competency requirements for the verifier
12. The verifier shall be independent of the operator, carry out his activities in a sound and objective professional manner, and understand:
(a) the provisions of this Directive, as well as relevant standards and guidance adopted by the Commission pursuant to Article 14(1);
(b) the legislative, regulatory, and administrative requirements relevant to the activities being verified; and
(c) the generation of all information related to each source of emissions in the installation, in particular, relating to the collection, measurement, calculation and reporting of data.
PART B — Verification of emissions from aviation activities
13. The general principles and methodology set out in this Annex shall apply to the verification of reports of emissions from flights falling within an aviation activity listed in Annex I.
For this purpose:
(a) in paragraph 3, the reference to operator shall be read as if it were a reference to an aircraft operator, and in point (c) of that paragraph the reference to installation shall be read as if it were a reference to the aircraft used to perform the aviation activities covered by the report;
(b) in paragraph 5, the reference to installation shall be read as if it were a reference to the aircraft operator;
(c) in paragraph 6 the reference to activities carried out in the installation shall be read as a reference to aviation activities covered by the report carried out by the aircraft operator;
(d) in paragraph 7 the reference to the site of the installation shall be read as if it were a reference to the sites used by the aircraft operator to perform the aviation activities covered by the report;
(e) in paragraphs 8 and 9 the references to sources of emissions in the installation shall be read as if they were a reference to the aircraft for which the aircraft operator is responsible; and
(f) in paragraphs 10 and 12 the references to operator shall be read as if they were a reference to an aircraft operator.
Additional provisions for the verification of aviation emission reports
14. The verifier shall in particular ascertain that:
(a) all flights falling within an aviation activity listed in Annex I have been taken into account. In this task the verifier shall be assisted by timetable data and other data on the aircraft operator’s traffic including data from Eurocontrol requested by that operator;
(b) there is overall consistency between aggregated fuel consumption data and data on fuel purchased or otherwise supplied to the aircraft performing the aviation activity.
Additional provisions for the verification of tonne-kilometre data submitted for the purposes of Articles 3e and 3f
15. The general principles and methodology for verifying emissions reports under Article 14(3) as set out in this Annex shall, where applicable, also apply correspondingly to the verification of aviation tonne-kilometre data.
16. The verifier shall in particular ascertain that only flights actually performed and falling within an aviation activity listed in Annex I for which the aircraft operator is responsible have been taken into account in that operator’s application under Articles 3e(1) and 3f(2). In this task the verifier shall be assisted by data on the aircraft operator’s traffic including data from Eurocontrol requested by that operator. In addition, the verifier shall ascertain that the payload reported by the aircraft operator corresponds to records on payloads kept by that operator for safety purposes.
