COMMISSION DECISION
of 18 March 2005
amending Decision 97/80/EC on provisions for the implementation of Council Directive 96/16/EC on statistical surveys of milk and milk products
(notified under document number C(2005) 754)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2005/288/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 96/16/EC, of 19 March 1996 on statistical surveys of milk and milk products (1), and in particular Article 5(2), and Article 6(1) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Article 5(2) of Directive 96/16/EC provides that Member States forward annually to the Commission methodological information compiled in the form of a standard questionnaire drawn up by the Commission. |
|
(2) |
Regulation (EC) No 1059/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 May 2003 on the establishment of a common classification of territorial units for statistics (NUTS) (2) lays down the legal framework for Community statistics broken down by territorial units; the new classification (NUTS) should therefore be used for transmitting data on the cows’ milk production by agricultural holdings on a regional basis. |
|
(3) |
In view of the growing economic importance of the protein content of milk, it is becoming increasingly necessary to have statistical information on the protein content of the main milk products. |
|
(4) |
Commission Decision 97/80/EC of 18 December 1996 (3) laying down provisions for implementation of Council Directive 96/16/EC on statistical surveys of milk and milk products must be amended and supplemented; |
|
(5) |
The measures provided for in this decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Agricultural Statistics, |
