A temporary experiment is hereby organised at Community level with the aim of assessing whether seed sampling for the purpose of seed testing and seed testing under official supervision may constitute improved alter- natives to the procedures for official seed certification required within the meaning of Directives 66/400/EEC, 66/401/EEC, 66/402/EEC and 69/208/EEC, without a significant decline in the quality of the seed. 12. 5. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities L 140/15 Any Member State may participate in the experiment. 2. Member States which participate in the experiment are hereby released from the obligations laid down in the Directives referred to in paragraph 1 in respect of official seed sampling and official seed testing, subject to the conditions set out in Articles 2 and 3 respectively. Article 2 Seed sampling shall be carried out by seed samplers 1. that purpose by the who have been authorised for competent seed certification authority of the Member State concerned under the conditions set out in para- graphs 2, 3 and 4. 2. Seed samplers shall have the necessary technical qualifications obtained in training courses organised under conditions applicable to official seed samplers and confirmed by official examinations. They shall carry out seed sampling in accordance with current international methods. 3. Seed samplers shall be: (a) independent natural persons, or (b) persons employed by natural or legal persons whose seed involve seed production, activities do not growing, seed processing or seed trade, or (c) persons employed by natural or legal persons whose activities involve seed production, seed growing, seed processing or seed trade.

The certification number required for the official labels prescribed under the Directives referred to in Article 1(1), or other appropriate alternatives, shall enable the Member States and the Commission to identify seed lots which have been sampled under official supervision. 7. Where a Member State participates in the experi- ment, an appropriate proportion of the samples supplied by that Member State for Community comparative trials shall represent samples drawn under the experiment. The details shall be determined in the respective technical protocols for the Community comparative trials. Article 3 Seed testing shall be carried out by seed testing labo- 1. ratories which have been authorised for that purpose by the competent seed certification authority of the Member State concerned under the conditions set out in para- graphs 2 to 5. 2. The laboratory shall have a seed analyst-in-charge who has direct responsibility for the technical operations of the laboratory and has the necessary qualifications for technical management of a seed testing laboratory. Its seed analysts shall have the necessary technical quali- fications obtained in training courses organised under and to official applicable conditions confirmed by official examinations. seed analysts The laboratory shall be maintained in premises and with equipment officially considered by the competent seed certification authority to be satisfactory for the purpose of seed testing, within the scope of the authorisation. It shall carry out seed testing in accordance with current international methods. 3. The laboratory shall be: (a) an independent laboratory, or 5. For the purposes of the supervision referred to in paragraph 4 a proportion of the seed lots entered for the official certification under the experiment shall be check- sampled by official seed samplers. That proportion shall in principle be as evenly spread as possibly over natural and legal persons entering seed for certification, but may also be orientated to eliminate specific doubt. That proportion shall be at least 5 %. (b) a laboratory belonging to a seed company. In the case referred to in point (b), the laboratory may carry out seed testing only on seed lots produced on behalf of the seed company to which it belongs, unless it has been otherwise agreed between the seed company to which it belongs, the applicant for certification and the competent seed certification authority.

For the purposes of the supervision referred to in paragraph 5 a proportion of the seed lots entered for the official certification under the experiment shall be check- tested by official seed testing. That proportion shall in principle be as evenly spread as possible over natural and legal persons entering seed for certification but may also be oriented to eliminate specific doubts. That proportion shall be at least 7 % in the case of seeds of cereals and 10 % in the case of seeds of other species. The Member States which participate in the experiment shall compare the seed samples tested officially with those of the same seed lot tested under official supervision. 7. The reference number of the lot required for the official labels prescribed under the Directives referred to in Article 1(1), or other appropriate alternatives, shall enable the Member States and the Commission to iden- tify seed lots which have been tested under official super- vision. 8. Where a Member State participates in the experi- ment, an appropriate proportion of the samples supplied by that Member State for Community comparative trials shall represent samples tested under the experiment.

Η Επιτροπή αποδέχεται τις τροπολογίες του Ευρωπαϊκού Κοινοβουλίου εκτός από την άμεση διαγραφή των "όρων παράδοσης" (τροπολογία 2). Η Επιτροπή συνιστά μια μεταβατική περίοδο για την κατάργηση αυτού του στοιχείου δεδομένων ώστε να καταστεί δυνατόν στα κράτη μέλη να προσαρμόσουν τα στατιστικά τους συστήματα, για να αντισταθμιστεί αυτή η απώλεια πληροφοριών. 3. Η Επιτροπή συμφωνεί να διατηρήσει την περιφέρεια προέλευσης/προορισμού ως προαιρετικά στοιχεία δεδομένων, και έλαβε υπόψη την σημασία που έχει η πληροφορία αυτή για ορισμένα κράτη μέλη. Εν τούτοις, η Επιτροπή αναλαμβάνει την εκτέλεση μιας μελέτης για την εξέταση των δυνατοτήτων χρήσης εναλλακτικών πηγών για τη συλλογή αυτού του στοιχείου δεδομένων, π. χ. διοικητικά μητρώα. 4. Η Επιτροπή συμμερίζεται την άποψη του Ευρωπαϊκού Κοινοβουλίου, σύμφωνα με την οποία οι απλουστεύσεις θα πρέπει να μελετηθούν ειδικά για τις MME, για τις οποίες το βάρος της υποβολής δήλωσης είναι συχνά δυσανάλογο της χρησιμότητας των στατιστικών συναλλαγών. Αυτό μπορεί να επιτευχθεί με τη θέσπιση κατωτάτων ορίων για τη συλλογή των προαιρετικών στοιχείων δεδομένων. Η Επιτροπή πιστεύει ότι τα μέτρα αυτά πρόκειται να ενισχύσουν τον αντίκτυπο της απλούστευσης της αναθεωρημένης πρότασης, και θα ανταποκριθεί στα παράπονα των παροχέων όσον αφορά το υπερβολικό βάρος που επιβάλουν οι δηλώσεις. 5. Η Επιτροπή πιστεύει ότι είναι σημαντική η επίτευξη συγκεκριμένων νομοθετικών αποτελεσμάτων, και δίνει έμφαση στην ισχυρή πολιτική υποστήριξη που εκφράστηκε υπέρ του σχεδίου SLIM μέρος του οποίου αποτελεί το INTRASTAT. 1 Α4-0102/98 της 19ης Μαρτίου, 1998 2 ΡΕ 268. 231 της 1ης Απριλίου, 1998 ^ Τροποποιημένη πρόταση κανονισμού (ΕΚ) τον Ευρωπαϊκού Κοινοβουλίου και του Συμβουλίου που τροποποιεί τον κανονισμό (ΕΟΚ) αριθ. 3330/91 του Συμβουλίου σχετικά με τις στατιστικές ανταλλαγών αγαθών μεταξύ των κρατών μελών (INTRASTAT) Κείμενο που προτείνει η Επιτροπή( ) προτεινόμενες τροποποιήσεις (Τροπολογία 1) Έκτη αιτιολογική σκέψη ότι προκειμένου να περιοριστεί ο στατιστικό φόρτος και να διασφαλιστεί η ισότιμη μεταχείρισ των υπόνοεων παρονής πληροφοριών, θα πρέπε να καταργηθούν τα προαιρετικά στοιχεία· ότι πάντως, η αναφορά τικ χώρας καταγωγή ιδιαίτερ παρουσιάζει νια πολλούς νρτίστες ενδιαφέρον και πρέπει κατά συνέπεια ν διατηρηθεί. ότι προκειμένου να περιοριστεί ο στατιστικό ιδιαίτερα τω φόρτος των επιχειρήσεων, και μικρών και μεσαίων θα πρέπει να καταργηθούν τ_ στοιχεία για τον τρόπο μεταφοράς και τους όρου παράδοσης, καθοίκ και τα προαιρετικά στοιχεί νια τις επιχειρήσεις ναμηλού όγκου συναλλαγώ και να περιοριστεί συναρτήσεις των εθνικώ αναγκών λογ πληροφοριών στις άλλες επιχειρήσεις. συγκέντρωοη των εν η (Τροπολογία 2) ΑΡΘΡΟ 1, ΠΑΡΑΓΡΑΦΟΣ 4 Αρθρο 23, παράγραφος 2 (κανονισμός (ΕΟΚ) 3330/90 ιιέλη απορούν να ζητήσουν ν Τα κράτη αναφέρονται, στο αέσο παρονής των στατιστικά) πληροφοριών στοιχεία διαφορετικά από αυτά πο προβλέπονται στην παοάνραΦος 1. αε ε£αίοεση τ ακόλουθα στοιγεία: στην Προκειμένου να περιοριστεί ο αριθιιός των MM που υπόκεινται υποχρέ(οση παροχή λεπτομερών στατιστικών στοιχείων, η Επιτροπ καθορίζει, σύμφωνα με το άρθρο 30 του παρόντο κανονισμού, ένα όριο κάτω από το οποίο τα κράτ μέλη δεν μπορούν να ζητήσουν να avaq εοονται στο μέσο παροχής των στατιστικών πληροφοριών στοιχεία διαφορετικά από αΐ'τά που ποοβλέποντα στην παράγραφο 1.

A Comissão estudou o relatório do Parlamento Europeu1 e as alterações adoptadas2. 2. A Comissão aprova as alterações do Parlamento Europeu. 3. A Comissão aceita, por conseguinte, a posição segundo a qual a simplificação beneficia de uma nomenclatura INTRASTAT específica, incluindo o facto de um número substancialmente reduzido de subposições poder ser contrabalançado, no presente sistema de recolha, pelos custos adicionais resultantes da manutenção de duas nomenclaturas, uma para o comércio intra e outra para o comércio extracomunitário. Esta posição foi igualmente enfatizada, em diversas ocasiões, pelos representantes das federações europeias. 4. As alterações propostas pelo Parlamento Europeu reforçam a ideia de uma nomenclatura única a Nomenclatura Combinada (NC) - para as estatísticas do comércio intra e extracomunitário, mencionando a segunda fase da iniciativa SLIM, em que a NC é simplificada. A Comissão secunda esta posição. 5. A Comissão partilha o ponto de vista do Parlamento Europeu de que as simplificações se destinam, nomeadamente, às PME, introduzindo limiares ou outras medidas, como, por exemplo, instrumentos de apoio à classificação dos intuito de simplificar a declaração do código do produto. produtos, no A Comissão considera que estas medidas reforçarão o impacto de simplificação da proposta revista, atendendo às queixas dos fornecedores em termos das dificuldades de determinação do código de produto adequado. 6. A Comissão julga importante obter resultados legislativos concretos, e sublinha o forte apoio político expresso a respeito do projecto SLIM de que o INTRASTAT faz parte.
