Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 994/2013
of 16 October 2013
amending Regulations (EC) No 952/2006, (EC) No 967/2006, (EC) No 555/2008, and (EC) No 1249/2008 as regards the communication and the notification obligations within the common organisation of agricultural markets
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation), and in particular Article 192(2), in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Commission Regulation (EC) No 792/2009, establishes common rules for notifying information and documents by Member States to the Commission. Those rules cover in particular the obligation for the Member States to use the information systems made available by the Commission and the validation of the access rights of the authorities or individuals authorised to send notifications. Regulation (EC) No 792/2009 also sets common principles applying to the information systems so that they guarantee the authenticity, integrity and legibility over time of the documents and provides for personal data protection. The obligation to use those information systems has to be provided for in each Regulation establishing a specific notification obligation.
(2)
The Commission has developed an information system that allows managing documents and procedures electronically in its own internal working procedures and in its relations with the authorities involved in the common agricultural policy.
(3)
Several communication and notification obligations can be fulfilled via that system, in particular those provided for in Commission Regulations (EC) No 952/2006, (EC) No 967/2006, (EC) No 555/2008 and (EC) No 1249/2008.
(4)
In the interest of efficient administration and taking account of the experience, some communications and notifications should be simplified, specified or deleted.
(5)
Regulation (EC) No 555/2008 foresees in its Article 100(2) a simplified notification when only zero values have to be communicated. Since the information system includes a simplified procedure for sending these notifications, the notification procedure of this Article is no longer necessary.
(6)
In Regulation 1249/2008, a supplementary notification on the slaughter of cattle with a view to calculate the weighing coefficient referred to in its Article 18 should be established.
(7)
Regulations (EC) No 952/2006, (EC) No 967/2006, (EC) No 555/2008, and (EC) No 1249/2008 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(8)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,
