Latvia has provided the Commission with all information relevant for that facility to be included in the European List. The European List should therefore be updated to include that facility.\n(4)\nLithuania 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. Lithuania has provided the Commission with all information relevant for that facility to be included in the European List. The European List should therefore be updated to include that facility.\n(5)\nThe Netherlands 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. The Netherlands has provided the Commission with all information relevant for that facility to be included in the European List.

Having assessed the information and supporting evidence provided or gathered in accordance with Article 15 of that Regulation, the Commission considers that the facilities comply with the requirements set out in Article 13 of that Regulation to conduct ship recycling and to be included in the European List. The European List should therefore be updated to include those facilities.\n(8)\nBelgium and Portugal have informed the Commission that the period of validity of the authorisation granted by their competent authorities to the Belgian and Portuguese ship recycling facility included in the European List has been extended. The date of expiry of the inclusion of those facilities in the European List should therefore be updated to reflect that extension.\n(9)\nImplementing Decision (EU) 2016/2323 should therefore be amended accordingly.\n(10)\nThe 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,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:",
