summary
The European Parliament adopted by 641 votes to 27, with 11 abstentions, amendments to the proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Council Regulations (EC) No 2008/97, (EC) No 779/98 and (EC) No 1506/98 in the field of imports of olive oil and other agricultural products from Turkey as regards the delegated and implementing powers to be conferred on the Commission. The matter was sent back to the committee responsible and the vote was postponed until a later session. Powers conferred on the Commission: the main amendments are as follows: the need for the European Parliament to be duly involved in the preparation and implementation of delegated acts; the delegation of power shall be conferred on the Commission for a period of five years that can be tacitly renewed for an identical duration (rather than for an indeterminate period, as the Commission had proposed); the Commission shall draw up a report in respect of the delegation of power not later than nine months before the end of the five-year period ; the European Parliament and Council will have four months (rather than two) to object to a delegated act. Implementing acts: implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission in order to ensure uniform conditions for the adoption of certain measures for the implementation of the Regulation. Those powers should be exercised in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 182/2011. Written procedure in committee (implementing powers): the Commission shall be assisted by a Committee established by the future aligned Single CMO Regulation within the meaning of Regulation (EU) No 182/2011. Parliament suggests, in line with the Trade Omnibus I and II reports, that the written procedure be terminated without result only if a qualified majority of Member States calls for this.

summary
The Committee on International Trade adopted the report by Vital MOREIRA (ALDE, PT) on the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Council Regulations (EC) No 2008/97, (EC) No 779/98 and (EC) No 1506/98 in the field of imports of olive oil and other agricultural products from Turkey as regards the delegated and implementing powers to be conferred on the Commission. The committee recommends that the European Parliaments position in first reading following the ordinary legislative procedure should amend the Commission proposal as follows: Powers conferred on the Commission: the committee made the following amendments: · it emphasised the need for the European Parliament to be duly involved in preparation and implementation of delegated acts; · the delegation of power shall be conferred on the Commission for a period of five years (rather than for an indeterminate period, as the Commission had proposed); · the Commission shall draw up a report in respect of the delegation of power not later than nine months before the end of the five-year period. The delegation of power shall be tacitly extended for periods of an identical duration, unless the European Parliament or the Council opposes such extension not later than three months before the end of each period; · the European Parliament and Council will have four months (rather than two) to object to a delegated act. Written procedure in committee: the Commission shall be assisted by a Committee within the meaning of Regulation (EU) No 182/2011. Where the opinion of the committee is to be obtained by written procedure, that procedure shall be terminated without result when, within the time-limit for delivery of the opinion, the chair of the committee so decides or a majority of committee members so request.

summary
PURPOSE: alignment of Regulations (EC) No 2008/97, (EC) No 779/98 and (EC) No 1506/98 with the new provisions foreseen under Articles 290 and 291 of the Treaty, following the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty. PROPOSED ACT: Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council. BACKGROUND: Articles 290 and 291 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) distinguish two different types of Commission acts: Article 290 of the TFEU allows the legislator to delegate to the Commission the power to adopt non-legislative acts of general application to supplement or amend certain non-essential elements of a legislative act. Legal acts adopted by the Commission in this way are referred to in the terminology used by the Treaty as "delegated acts" (Article 290(3)). Under Article 291 of the TFEU, Member States adopt all measures of national law necessary to implement legally binding Union acts. Those acts confer implementing powers on the Commission where uniform conditions for implementing them are needed. Legal acts adopted by the Commission in this way are referred to in the terminology used by the Treaty as "implementing acts" (Article 291(4)). IMPACT ASSESSMENT: there was no need for consultation of interested parties or for an impact analysis since the proposal to align Council Regulations (EC) No 2008/97, (EC) No 779/98 and (EC) No 1506/98 with the TFEU is an inter-institutional matter that will concern all Council Regulations. LEGAL BASIS: Article 207 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). CONTENT: the objective of the present proposal consists in aligning three Council Regulations in the field of imports of olive oil and other agricultural products from Turkey with those provisions of the TFEU. As a consequence of the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty, the powers conferred upon the Commission under those regulations need to be aligned. It is necessary to re-classify the powers conferred upon the Commission into delegated and implementing powers and to amend the regulations above. In order to supplement or amend certain non-essential elements of Regulation (EC) No 2008/97, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty should be delegated to the Commission in respect of the adoption of the resulting adjustments necessary for that Regulation where the present conditions of the special arrangements provided for in the Association Agreement are amended, in particular as regards the amounts, or where a new agreement is concluded. In order to ensure uniform conditions for the implementation of Regulations (EC) No 2008/97, (EC) No 779/98 and (EC) No 1506/98, the relevant implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission. Those powers should be exercised in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 2011 laying down the rules and general principles concerning mechanisms for control by Member States of the Commissions exercise of implementing powers. BUDGETARY IMPLICATIONS: the proposal has no financial impact on budgetary expenditure and revenue.
