Recital 22

(22) In order to ensure that the rules governing labelling and presentation of products in the wine sector also apply to de-alcoholised or partially de-alcoholised grapevine products, to establish rules governing the dealcoholisation processes for the production of certain de- alcoholised or partially de-alcoholised grapevine products within the Union, and rules concerning the conditions of use of closures in the wine sector in order to ensure that consumers are protected from misleading use of certain closures associated with certain beverages and from hazardous closure materials that may contaminate the beverages, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union should be delegated to the Commission. It is of particular importance that the Commission carry out appropriate consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level, and that those consultations be conducted in accordance with the principles laid down in the Interinstitutional Agreement of 13 April 2016 on Better Law-Making. In particular, to ensure equal participation in the preparation of delegated acts, the European Parliament and the Council receive all documents at the same time as Member States' experts, and their experts systematically have access to meetings of Commission expert groups dealing with the preparation of delegated acts.deleted

(3a) In order to give substance to the objectives of the CAP as established by Article 39 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU), as well as to ensure that the Union adequately addresses its most recent challenges, it is appropriate to provide for a set of general objectives reflecting the orientations given in the Communication on ‘The Future of Food and Farming’. Without prejudice to the specific objectives set out in the CAP strategic plans, a series of additional objectives specific to the common organisation of agricultural markets should also be defined.

(4) Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 sets out certain definitions concerning sectors falling within the scope of that Regulation. Definitions concerning the sugar sector set out in Section B of Part II of that Annex should be deleted because they are no longer applicable. In order to update definitions concerning other sectors referred to in that Annex, in light of new scientific knowledge or market developments, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union should be delegated to the Commission in respect of the ~~amendment~~updating of those definitions, without adding new ones. It is of particular importance that the Commission carry out appropriate consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level. The Commission, when preparing and drawing up delegated acts, should ensure a simultaneous, timely and appropriate transmission of relevant documents to the European Parliament and to the Council. Consequently, the individual empowerment delegated to the Commission in point 4 of section A of Part II of that Annex to amend the definition of inulin syrup should be deleted.

(8) ~~In view of~~Without calling into question the fact that a too-rapid increase in the number of new vine plantations to meet the expected growth of international demand could lead, once again, to a situation of overcapacity in supply in the medium term, it is necessary to take into account the decrease in the actual area planted with vines in several Member States in the years 2014-2017, and ~~in view of~~ the potential loss in production ensuing, when establishing the area for new planting authorisations referred to in Article 63(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013,. Member States should be able to choose between the existing basis and a percentage of the total area actually planted with vines in their territory on 31 July 2015 increased by an area corresponding to the planting rights under Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 available for conversion into authorisations in the Member State concerned on 1 January 2016.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 17 a (new)

(17a) Experience gained in the context of the protection of designations of origin and geographical indications in the wine sector has shown that the procedures in force for the registration, amendment and cancellation of designations of origin and geographical indications of the Union or third countries can be complex, cumbersome and lengthy. Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 has created legal loopholes, in particular as regards the procedure to be followed for requests for amendments to the product specifications. The procedural rules concerning designations of origin and geographical indications in the wine sector do not comply with the rules applicable to quality systems in the foodstuffs, spirit drinks and aromatised wines sectors under Union law. This situation leads to inconsistencies in the way in which this category of intellectual property rights is applied. These divergences should be addressed in light of the right to intellectual property protection laid down in Article 17(2) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. This Regulation should therefore simplify, clarify, supplement and harmonise the procedures concerned. The procedures should, as far as possible, be established along the lines of effective and duly proven procedures for the protection of intellectual property rights in respect of agricultural products and foodstuffs, as laid down in Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council and its implementing regulations, while taking the specificities of the wine sector into account.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 17 b (new)

(17b) Designations of origin and geographical indications are intrinsically linked to the territory of the Member States. National and local authorities have the greatest expertise with respect to the relevant facts and are the most familiar with them. This should be taken into account in the relevant procedural rules, having regard to the principle of subsidiarity established by Article 5(3) TFEU.

2018/12/12
Committee: AGRI

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 17 c (new)

(17c) The assessment carried out by the competent authorities of Member States is an essential step in the procedure. Member States have knowledge, expertise and access to data and facts that make them the best placed to verify whether an application for a designation of origin or a geographical indication meets the conditions for protection. Member States should therefore ensure that the results of that assessment, faithfully recorded in a single document summarising the relevant elements of the product specification, are reliable and accurate. Having regard to the principle of subsidiarity, the Commission should subsequently scrutinise applications to ensure that there are no manifest errors and that Union law and the interests of stakeholders outside the Member State making the application are taken into account.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 17 d (new)

(17d) Producers of grapevine products bearing a protected name as a designation of origin or a geographical indication are operating in a changing and demanding market. Although they need procedures that permit them to adapt swiftly to market demands, they are instead penalised by the length and complexity of the amendment procedure currently in force, which limits their ability to react to the market. Producers of grapevine products bearing a protected name as a designation of origin or a geographical indication should also be able to take developments in scientific and technical knowledge and environmental changes into account. In order to reduce the number of steps involved in these procedures and to apply the principle of subsidiarity in this area, it is important that decisions on amendments which do not concern essential elements of the product specification can be approved at Member State level. Producers should be able to apply these amendments as soon as the national procedure is concluded. It should not be necessary for the application to be reviewed for approval at Union level.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 17 e (new)

(17e) However, in order to protect the interests of third parties established in Member States other than the one in which the grapevine products are produced, it is important that the approval of amendments requiring an opposition procedure at Union level should continue to be the responsibility of the Commission. It is therefore necessary to introduce a new classification of amendments: standard amendments, which do not give rise to opposition procedures at Union level and therefore apply as soon as they are approved by the Member State; and Union level amendments, which apply only after approval by the Commission, after the conclusion of the opposition procedure at Union level.

Recital 17 f (new)

(17f) The concept of a ‘temporary amendment’ should be introduced so that grapevine products bearing a protected designation of origin or a protected geographical indication can continue to be marketed under these protected names in the event of natural disasters or adverse weather conditions or in the event of the adoption of sanitary or phytosanitary measures that temporarily prevent operators from complying with the product specification. Due to their urgency, it is important that the temporary amendments apply as soon as they are approved by the Member State. The list of urgent reasons justifying the adoption of temporary amendments is exhaustive, due to the exceptional nature of these amendments.

(17g) It is important that Union amendments follow the procedure governing applications for protection so that they have the same effectiveness and the same guarantees. They should apply mutatis mutandis, with the exception of certain steps, which should be deleted in order to reduce the administrative burden. The procedure to be followed for standard and temporary amendments should be defined in order to allow Member States to assess applications appropriately and to ensure a consistent approach across Member States. The assessment carried out by the Member States should be equivalent, in terms of rigour and completeness, to the assessment carried out under the procedure governing applications for protection.

(35a) The interbranch organisations recognised under Article 157 of Regulation (EU) 1308/2013 on the common organisation of the markets for agricultural products are operators which play a vital role in the development of diversified agricultural sectors in the outermost regions, in particular in the livestock sectors. Given their very small size and their island location, local markets in the outermost regions are particularly vulnerable to price fluctuations linked to import flows from the rest of the EU or third countries. These interbranch organisations bring together all operators active on the market at every stage and, as such, take collective measures, in particular for compiling data and disseminating information, designed to ensure that local crops remain competitive on the market in question. To this end, Articles 28, 29 and 110 TFEU notwithstanding, and without prejudice to Articles 164 and 165 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, it is appropriate to allow that, in the context of extended interbranch agreements, the Member State in question may, after consultation with the actors concerned, make liable individual operators or groups of operators who are not members of the organisation and who operate on the local market, irrespective of their origin, including in cases where the proceeds of these contributions fund measures to maintain only local production or where the contributions are levied at a different stage in the marketing process.

Amendments to a product specification are classified into two categories as regards their importance: amendments that require an opposition procedure at Union level (‘Union amendments’) and amendments that must be dealt with at Member State or third country level (‘standard amendments’). An amendment is considered to be a Union amendment where: (a) it includes a change in the name of the protected designation of origin or the protected geographical indication; (b) it consists of a change of category of grapevine products or the deletion or addition of a category of grapevine products referred to in Part II of Annex VII; (c) it could potentially nullify the link referred to in points (a)(i) or (b)(i) of Article 93(1); (d) it entails new restrictions on the marketing of the product. Requests for amendments at Union level submitted by third countries or by producers established in third countries shall contain evidence that the requested amendment complies with the legislative provisions on the protection of designations of origin or geographical indications in force in those third countries. All other amendments shall be considered to be standard amendments. 1b. A temporary amendment is a standard amendment concerning a temporary change in the product specification resulting from the adoption by the public authorities of mandatory sanitary and phytosanitary measures or measures linked to natural disasters or adverse weather conditions formally recognised by the competent authorities.

Any application for approval of an amendment to the product specifications at Union level, within the meaning of Article 105, shall follow mutatis mutandis the procedure laid down in Articles 94 and 96 to 99. An application for approval of an amendment to the product specifications at Union level shall be considered admissible if it is submitted in accordance with Article 105 and if it is complete, exhaustive and duly established. The approval by the Commission of an application for approval of an amendment to the product specifications at Union level shall relate only to the amendments contained in the application. 2. Where, based on the examination carried out pursuant to Article 97(2), the Commission considers that the conditions laid down in Article 97(3) of that Regulation are met, it shall publish the application for amendment at Union level in the Official Journal of the European Union. The final approval decision on the amendment shall be adopted without recourse to the examination procedure referred to in Article 229(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, unless an admissible statement of opposition has been submitted or the amendment request has been rejected, in which case Article 99(2) shall apply. 3. Where an application is found to be inadmissible, the competent authorities of the Member State or third country or applicant established in a third country shall be informed of the reasons justifying such inadmissibility. 4. Applications for approval of amendments at Union level shall relate exclusively to amendments at Union level. Where an application for amendment at Union level also contains standard or temporary amendments, the procedure for amendments at Union level shall only apply to the amendments at Union level. Standard or temporary amendments shall be deemed not to have been submitted. 5. In its examination of requests for amendments, the Commission shall devote its full attention to the proposed amendments.

A standard amendment shall be approved and made public by the Member State in which the geographical area of the designation of origin or geographical indication is located. Any application for approval of a standard amendment to a product specification shall be submitted to the authorities of the Member State in which the geographical area of the designation or indication is located. Applicants shall comply with the conditions laid down in Article 95. If the application for approval of a standard amendment to a product specification does not originate from the applicant who submitted the application for protection of the name or names the product specification refers to, the Member State shall give that applicant the opportunity to comment on the application, provided that the applicant still exists. The application for a minor amendment shall contain a description of the standard amendments, a summary of the reasons why the amendments are necessary, and evidence that the proposed amendments can be qualified as standard in accordance with Article 105. 2. Where the Member State considers that the conditions are met, it may approve the standard amendment and make it public. The approval decision shall contain the amended consolidated single document, where appropriate, and the amended consolidated product specification. The standard amendment shall apply in the Member State as soon as it is made public. The Member State shall communicate the standard amendments to the Commission no later than one month following the date on which the national approval decision is made public. 3. Approval decisions for standard amendments concerning grapevine products originating in third countries shall be taken in accordance with the system in force in the third country concerned and shall be communicated to the Commission by a single producer or group of producers having a legitimate interest, either directly to the Commission or through the authorities of that third country, no later than one month after the date on which they have been made public. 4. When the geographical area covers more than one Member State, the Member States concerned shall apply the procedure laid down for standard amendments only to that part of the area which is located within their territory. The standard amendment shall only be applicable once the last national approval decision is applicable. The last Member State to approve the standard amendment shall send it to the Commission no later than one month following the date on which its decision to approve the standard amendment is made public. If one or more Member States concerned do not adopt the national approval decision referred to in the first subparagraph, any Member State concerned may submit an application under the procedure laid down for amendments at Union level.

Agreements, decisions and concerted practices which fulfil the conditions referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article shall apply without any prior decision to that effect being required. However, interbranch organisations recognised under Article 157 of this Regulation may ask the Commission for an opinion on the compatibility of these agreements, decision and concerted practices with the objectives listed in Article 39 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. The Commission shall deal with requests for opinions promptly and shall send the applicant its opinion within two months of receipt of a complete request. The Commission may, at its own initiative or at the request of a Member State, change the content of an opinion, in particular if the applicant has provided inaccurate information or misused the opinion. 2. Article 101(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union shall not apply to the agreements, decisions and concerted practices of interbranch organisations recognised under Article 157 of this Regulation which relate to activities other than the objectives listed in point (c) of Article 157(1) of this Regulation, and, for the olive oil and table olive and tobacco sectors, Article 162 of this Regulation, when: (a) the agreements, decisions and concerted practices have been notified to the Commission; and (b) within two months of receipt of all the details required the Commission has not found that those agreements, decisions or concerted practices are incompatible with Union rules. Where the Commission finds that the agreements, decisions or concerted practices referred to in paragraph 1 are incompatible with Union rules, it shall set out its finding without applying the procedure referred to in Article 229(2) or (3). The agreements, decisions and concerted practices referred to in paragraph 2 shall take effect when the two-month period referred to in point (b) of the first subparagraph of paragraph 2 has elapsed. 3. Agreements, decisions and concerted practices shall in any case be declared incompatible with Union rules if they: (a) may lead to the partitioning of markets within the Union in any form; (b) may affect the sound operation of the market organisation; (c) may create distortions of competition which are not essential to achieving the objectives of the CAP pursued by the interbranch organisation activity; (d) entail the fixing of prices or the fixing of quotas; (e) may create discrimination or eliminate competition in respect of a substantial proportion of the products in question. That Commission decision shall not apply earlier than the date of its notification to the interbranch organisation concerned, unless that interbranch organisation has given incorrect information or abused the exemption provided for in paragraph 1. 3. If the Commission finds that the conditions for applying paragraph 1 or, following the expiry of the two-month period referred to in point (b) of the first subparagraph of paragraph 2, the conditions for applying paragraph 2 have not been met, or are no longer met, it shall, without applying the procedure referred to in Article 229(2) or (3), take a decision declaring that in future Article 101(1) TFEU applies to the agreement, decision or concerted practice in question. In the case of multiannual agreements, the notification for the first year shall be valid for the subsequent years of the agreement. However, in that event, the Commission may, on its own initiative or at the request of another Member State, issue a finding of incompatibility at any time.
