1. BACKGROUND
Regulation (EC) No 543/2009 of 18 June 2009 concerning crop statistics and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 837/90 and (EEC) No 959/931 was modified by Regulation (EU) No 1350/2013 of 11 December 2013 amending certain legislative acts in the field of agricultural and fishery statistics2 to align implementing powers with the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.
Article 8a of Regulation (EC) No 543/2009 confers on the Commission the power to adopt delegated acts. According to Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 543/2009, the power of delegation can be used to amend the transmission tables set out in the Annex to the Regulation.
Under Article 8a(2), the power to adopt delegated acts is conferred for a period of 5 years from 10 January 2014. This power was tacitly renewed until 10 January 2024 in 20193.
The Commission is obliged to draw up a report on the delegation of power no later than 9 months before the end of the 5-year period. This report fulfils that obligation.
2. COMMISSION EXERCISE OF DELEGATED POWERS UNDER REGULATION (EC) NO 543/2009
Since Regulation (EC) No 543/2009 entered into force, the Commission has only adopted Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/15574. Most of the updates were clarifications of variable and aggregate names. Some redundant aggregates were also dropped from the statistical tables.
Regulation (EC) No 543/2009 will be repealed by Regulation (EU) 2022/2379 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 November 2022 on statistics on agricultural input and output, amending Commission Regulation (EC) No 617/2008 and repealing Regulations (EC) No 1165/2008, (EC) No 543/2009 and (EC) No 1185/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Directive 96/16/EC5 as of 1 January 2025.
3. CONCLUSIONS
The Commission has exercised the power to adopt delegated acts conferred on it by Regulation (EC) No 543/2009.
Furthermore, the Commission does not envisage exercising the delegated powers conferred on it, as Regulation (EC) No 543/2009 will be repealed by Regulation EU (No) 2022/2379 as of 1 January 2025.
