Taking into account that Directive 2000/76/EC applies in full to all existing plants from 28 December 2005 onwards, and since the overwhelming majority of plants operated in the EU belong to the group of existing plants, and that Directive 94/67/EC is repealed as of 28 December 2005, and reporting under Directive 96/61/EC covers the period to 2006-2008 inclusive, the most appropriate first full reporting period is 1 January 2006 to 31 December 2008.\n(4)\nThe measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 6 of Council Directive 91/692/EEC,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:",
