summary
The European Parliament adopted a report drawn up by Robert STURDY (EPP-ED, UK), and made some amendments to the proposal for a regulation amending Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 on maximum residue levels of pesticides in or on food and feed as regards the implementing powers conferred on the Commission. The main amendments were as follows:- the products, product groups and/or parts of products referred to in Article 2(1) to which harmonised MRLs shall apply shall be defined in and covered by Annex I. Those measures designed to amend non-essential elements of the Regulation shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny. Annex I shall include all products for which MRLs are set, as well as the other products for which it is appropriate to apply harmonised MRLs in particular in view of their relevance in the diet of consumers or in trade. Products shall be grouped in such a way that MRLs may as far as possible be set for a group of similar or related products;- in certain paragraphs, where the regulatory procedure with scrutiny applies, Parliament stated that on imperative grounds of urgency, the Commission may use the urgency procedure referred to in Article 45(5) in order to ensure a high level of consumer protection;- Parliament will have the normal scrutiny period without curtailment on the grounds of urgency for the first establishment of Annexes II and III;- Parliament did not make any amendments regarding the application of the regulatory procedure with scrutiny to any individual decisions.

summary
PURPOSE: to amend Regulation 396/2005/EC on maximum residue levels of pesticides in or on food and feed by introducing a reference to the new regulatory procedure with scrutiny (comitology).PROPOSED ACT: Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council. CONTENT: Council Decision 1999/468/EC laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission has been amended by Council Decision 2006/512/EC (CNS/2002/0298).The amended Decision introduces a new regulatory procedure with scrutiny to be used for measures of general scope which seek to amend non-essential elements of a basic instrument, adopted under co-decision, including by deleting some of those elements or by supplementing the instrument by the addition of new non-essential elements. This procedure allows the legislator to oppose the adoption of "quasi-legislative" measures implementing a codecision-based instrument when it considers that the draft exceeds the implementing powers provided for in the basic instrument, or that the draft is incompatible with the aim or the content of that instrument or fails to respect the principles of subsidiarity or proportionality.In a joint statement, the three institutions agreed on a list of 26 basic instruments already in force to be adjusted without delay in accordance with the new regulatory procedure with scrutiny (see ACI/2006/2152). Each case has been assessed on its own merits, notably in view of the nature of the implementing powers conferred on the Commission and the specificity of each sector.Lastly, in accordance with the abovementioned statement, the Commission is proposing to repeal any provisions of these instruments that provide for a time-limit on the delegation of implementing powers to the Commission.
