Those emission levels, set out in the Annex to that Decision, were established following the completion of the reviews conducted pursuant to Article 8 of the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.\n(2)\nThe review of Croatia’s base-year emission level was completed on 26 August 2009. The report of that review raised a question of implementation concerning Croatia’s assigned amount. On 8 February 2012, the Compliance Committee of the Kyoto Protocol determined that the question of implementation had been resolved and the final values of Croatia’s emission level were subsequently established.\n(3)\nFollowing the accession of the Republic of Croatia to the European Union on 1 July 2013, the Annex to Decision 2006/944/EC should also include the emission level allocated to Croatia under the Kyoto Protocol.\n(4)\nDecision 2006/944/EC should be amended accordingly,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:",
