THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 of 12 October 1992 establishing the Community Customs Code, and in particular Article 247 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1875/2006 of 18 December 2006 amending Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 laying down provisions for the implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code introduced the concept of authorised economic operators (AEO). Economic operators who fulfil the conditions for obtaining the full AEO or AEO Security and safety status should be considered as reliable partners in the supply chain and therefore benefit from facilitations with regard to customs controls relating to security and safety.

(2) The Union recognises the trade partnership programmes of certain third countries that have been developed in accordance with the World Customs Organization Framework of Standards to Secure and Facilitate Global Trade. Consequently, the Union grants facilitations to those economic operators of a third country who hold a membership status under the customs authority’s programme of that third country. It is therefore necessary to introduce means to identify in entry summary declarations the economic operators holding a membership status under trade partnership programmes of third countries. The relevant facilitations will not be provided without proper identification of those economic operators in the entry summary declarations.

(3) It is therefore appropriate to adapt Annex 30a to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 in order to allow indication of economic operators’ third country unique identification number.

(4) Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Annex 30a to Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 is amended as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on 31 January 2013.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States. Done at Brussels, 23 January 2013. For the Commission The President José Manuel Barroso

  Sir, The Commission wishes to inform Slovakia that, having examined the information supplied by your authorities on the aid measures referred to above, it has decided to initiate the procedure laid down in Article 108(2) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. By electronic notification registered on 12 May 2016, the Slovak authorities notified to the Commission an EUR 125046543 regional aid measure in favour of Jaguar Land Rover Slovakia s.r.o. subject to Commission approval. In addition to this notified aid measure, Slovakia may have granted additional non-notified aid via it

  According to Slovakia, JLR undertook within a period of at least 18 months before 10 July 2015, an extensive global search to identify one or several possible locations for new production facilities that were considered necessary to meet actual capacity shortages and to satisfy expected future demand. The process considered dozens of potential sites in North America (Canada, Mexico, and the Unites States), in the EU (in particular Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia), and in Turkey. A possible location in the UK had been excluded at a preliminary stage. This process led on 10 July 20

  Exemption from the agricultural land transformation fee As explained above in recitals 12 and 22, the so-called Exemption H provides an exemption from the agricultural land transformation fee. The Slovak authorities' argument on why the exemption does not constitute State aid was similar to the argumentation described above in relation to the expenditure incurred for the NSP development, which, in their view, is not economic. As explained above (see recital 110), the Commission at this point considers that the development of the NSP may be regarded as an economic activity. If that is confirmed
