of 26 June 2001

amending Regulation (EEC) No 1445/76 specifying the different varieties of Lolium perenne L.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71 of 26 October 1971 on the common organisation of the market in seeds(1), as last amended by the Regulation (EC) No 2371/2000(2), and in particular Article 3(5) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1445/76(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1389/2000(4), listed the varieties of Lolium perenne L. of high persistence, late or medium late, and of Lolium perenne L. of low persistence, medium late, medium early or early, within the meaning of the provisions adopted pursuant to Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71.

(2) Since the last amendment of Regulation (EEC) No 1445/76, certified seed of certain varieties of Lolium perenne L. is no longer marketed, while certified seed of other varieties has appeared on the market and will be marketed for the first time during the 2001/02 marketing year. Furthermore, the application of the classification criteria to certain varieties of Lolium perenne L. results in their inclusion in one of the abovementioned lists. The Annexes to Regulation (EEC) No 1445/76 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Seeds,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
