(2) Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000, relating to ozone depleting substances and mixtures containing ozone depleting substances, refers to some of the CN codes which were amended by Regulation (EC) No 1214/2007. It is therefore necessary to adjust that Annex. In view of the number of changes to be made, it is appropriate for reasons of clarity to replace that Annex in its entirety. (3) Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000 should therefore be amended accordingly. (4) Since Regulation (EC) No 1214/2007 entered into force on 1 January 2008, this Regulation should apply from the same date.
