## Introductory text

Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2018/1478
of 3 October 2018
amending Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/2323 to update the European List of ship recycling facilities established pursuant to Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 November 2013 on ship recycling and amending Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 and Directive 2009/16/EC, and in particular Article 16(4) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
The European List of ship recycling facilities (‘the European List’) was established by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/2323 and has been amended by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2018/684.
(2)
The United Kingdom has informed the Commission that a ship recycling facility located in its territory has been authorised by the competent authority in accordance with Article 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013 and has provided the Commission with all information necessary for that facility to be included in the European List.
(3)
The authorisation of two ship recycling facilities located in Poland expired on 28 April 2018 and the Commission has not received information from Poland that the authorisations granted to those facilities to conduct ship recycling have been, or would be, renewed. Therefore, the two facilities no longer meet the requirements set out in Article 13(1)(a) of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013 and should be removed from the European List in accordance with point (ii) of Article 16(4)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013.
(4)
It is therefore appropriate to amend Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/2323.
(5)
As regards ship recycling facilities located in a third country for which an application for inclusion in the European List has been submitted to the Commission in accordance with Article 15 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013, the assessment of the relevant information and supporting evidence provided or gathered is still ongoing. The Commission is to adopt implementing acts pertaining to those ship recycling facilities located outside the Union once the assessment is finalised.
(6)
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 25 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

## 1 

The Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/2323 is replaced by the text in the Annex to this Decision.

## 2 

This Decision shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

## Signature

Done at Brussels, 3 October 2018.
For the Commission
The President
Jean-Claude Juncker
