COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2018/1507
of 10 October 2018
on exceptional market support measures for the eggs and poultrymeat sectors in Poland
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007 (1), and in particular Article 220(1)(a) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Between 3 December 2016 and 16 March 2017, 65 outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza of subtype H5 were confirmed and notified by Poland. The species affected are ducks, geese, turkeys, Gallus domesticus chickens and laying hens. |
(2) |
Poland immediately and efficiently took all the necessary animal health and veterinary measures required in accordance with Council Directive 2005/94/EC (2). |
(3) |
In particular, Poland took control, monitoring and preventive measures and established protection and surveillance zones (‘the regulated zones’) pursuant to Commission Implementing Decisions (EU) 2016/2219 (3), (EU) 2016/2367 (4), (EU) 2017/14 (5), (EU) 2017/116 (6), (EU) 2017/155 (7), (EU) 2017/247 (8), (EU) 2017/417 (9) and (EU) 2017/554 (10). |
(4) |
In applying those measures, Poland managed to contain and eradicate the spread of the disease. The Union and national animal health and veterinary measures were applied until 22 May 2017 in all relevant holdings. |
(5) |
Poland informed the Commission that the necessary health and veterinary measures, which had been applied to contain and eradicate the spread of the disease, had affected a very large number of operators and that those operators suffered income losses not eligible for Union financial contribution under Regulation (EU) No 652/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council (11). |
(6) |
On 17 July 2017, the Commission received a formal request from Poland for part-financing of certain exceptional measures pursuant to Article 220(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013. On 11 April 2018, 10 May 2018 and 19 June 2018 the Polish authorities clarified their request. |
(7) |
As a result of the animal health and veterinary measures applied, fallowing periods were prolonged, placing of birds was prohibited and movements were restricted on holdings of all types of poultry in the regulated zones established following outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza of subtype H5. This concerned the following species: ducks, geese, turkeys and Gallus domesticus chickens and laying hens. This led to a loss of production in these poultry holdings. It is therefore appropriate to compensate these losses. |
(8) |
In accordance with Article 220(5) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, the Union part-financing has to be equivalent to 50 % of the expenditure borne by Poland for the exceptional market support measures. The maximum quantities eligible for financing in respect of each exceptional market support measure should be fixed by the Commission after scrutinising the request received from Poland. |
(9) |
To avoid any risk of overcompensation, the flat rate amount should be based on technical and economic studies or accounting documents and fixed at an appropriate level for each animal and product according to the categories of animals produced. |
(10) |
To avoid any risk of double funding, losses suffered should not have been compensated by state aid or insurance and the Union part-financing under this Regulation should be limited to eligible animals and products for... |
