The marketing in the Union of seed of Hordeum vulgare L. (barley) of the category ‘certified seed second generation’ belonging to the variety Scrabble, which does not satisfy the requirements as regards varietal purity laid down in point 1(A) of Annex II to Directive 66/402/EEC shall be authorised for a quantity not exceeding 6 000 tonnes and for a period expiring on 31 December 2018, provided that the minimum purity is not below 97 %.
Any seed supplier wishing to place on the market the seed referred to in Article 1 shall apply for authorisation to the Member State in which it is established. The application shall specify the quantity of the seed that the supplier wishes to place on the market. The Member State concerned shall authorise the supplier to place that seed on the market, unless: (a) there is sufficient evidence to doubt as to whether the supplier is able to place on the market the amount of seed for which it has applied for authorisation; or (b) granting the authorisation would result in the maximum quantity of seed referred to in Article 1 being exceeded.
Member States shall assist each other administratively in the application of this Decision. Spain shall act as coordinating Member State in order to ensure that the total quantity of seed authorised for marketing in the Union by the Member States pursuant to this Decision does not exceed the maximum quantity of seed referred to in Article 1. Any Member State receiving an application under Article 2 shall immediately notify the coordinating Member State of the amount covered by the application. The coordinating Member State shall immediately inform that Member State as to whether authorisation would result in the maximum quantity being exceeded.
Member States shall immediately notify to the Commission and the other Member States the quantities in respect of which they have granted marketing authorisation pursuant to this Decision.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
