Article 12Management and review of the list of control bodies and control authorities for the purpose of equivalence1.A control body or control authority may only be included in the list referred to in Article 10 when it fulfils the following obligations:(a)if, after a control body or control authority has been included in the list, any changes are made to the measures applied by the control body or control authority, that control body or control authority shall notify the Commission thereof; requests to amend the information in respect of a control body or authority referred to in Article 10(2), shall also be notified to the Commission;(b)by 28 February every year, the control body or control authority shall send a concise annual report to the Commission. The annual report shall update the information of the technical dossier referred to in Article 11(3); it shall describe in particular the control activities carried out by the control body or control authority in the third countries in the previous year, the results obtained, the irregularities and infringements observed and the corrective measures taken; It shall furthermore contain the most recent assessment report or update of such report, which shall contain the results of the regular on-the-spot evaluation, surveillance and multiannual reassessment as referred to in Article 33(3) of Regulation (EC) No 834/2007; the Commission may request any other information deemed necessary;(c)in the light of any information received, the Commission may at any time amend the specifications relating to the control body or control authority and may suspend the entry of that body or authority from the list referred to in Article 10; a similar decision may also be made where a control body or control authority has not supplied information required or where it has not agreed to an on-the-spot examination;(d)the control body or control authority shall make available to interested parties, by electronic means, a continuously updated list of operators, and of products certified as organic.2.In accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 37(2) of Regulation (EC) No 834/2007 a control body or a control authority, or a reference to a specific product category or to a specific third country in relation to that control body or control authority, may be withdrawn from the list referred to in Article 10 of this Regulation in the following cases:(a)if its annual report referred to paragraph 1(b) has not been received by the Commission by 28 February;(b)if it does not notify the Commission in due time of changes to its technical dossier;(c)if it does not provide information to the Commission during the investigations of an irregularity case;(d)if it fails to take adequate corrective measures in response to the irregularities and infringements observed;(e)if it does not agree to an on-the-spot examination required by the Commission, or if an on-the-spot examination comes up with a negative result due to systematic malfunctioning of control measures;(f)in any other situation presenting the risk for the consumer to be misled about the true nature of the products certified by the control body or the control authority.If a control body or a control authority fails to take appropriate and timely remedial action after request by the Commission within a period which the Commission shall determine according to the severity of the problem and which generally may not be less than 30 days, the Commission shall withdraw it from the list without delay in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 37(2) of Regulation (EC) No 834/2007.
