2 WORKING DOCUMENT DRAFT DELEGATED ACT FOR THE RE-CAST OF REGULATION (EC) N 436/2009 AND TITLES III AND V OF REGULATION (EC) N 555/2008 DISCLAIMER This working document has been prepared by DG AGRI staff in order to facilitate the discussion in the Expert group for Wine. This draft Delegated Act is still subject to changes until the final adoption by the College EN 2 EN

3 EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 1. CONTEXT OF THE DELEGATED ACT Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products (CMO Regulation) empowers the Commission to adopt delegated acts. The purpose of this delegated act is to lay down detailed rules concerning the vineyard register, accompanying documents and certification, inward and outward register, compulsory declarations, control bodies, administrative cooperation and mutual assistance, and notifications and access rights, in order to re-cast existing Regulation (EC) No 436/2009 and the relevant provisions of Titles III and V of Regulation (EC) No 555/2008. These rules will provide for details on the minimum information to be contained in the vineyard register, the rules on accompanying documents and certification for Union and Third countries grapevine products, on inward and outward register to be kept in the wine sector, on administrative cooperation and mutual assistance, and on the operators' obligations concerning the different compulsory declarations (in particular production and stock declarations). This delegated act will also repeal and replace Delegated Regulation (EU) No 2015/560 concerning the new scheme of authorisations for vine plantings, thereby integrating all existing provisions in this new act. The integration of all these different aspects of wine legislation in the same act, all very much linked to regulatory and control provisions, allows to not only reduce the number of total acts related to the wine sector in the framework of the Common Market Organisation (CMO), but also to harmonise definitions applying across these areas. This leads to simplifying the respective implementation in Member States and enhancing clarity. The integration of provisions that range from the planting of vines until the marketing of wine as final product also contributes to promote the idea of traceability along the supply chain. The adoption of this delegated act does not entail financial implications. 2. CONSULTATIONS PRIOR TO THE ADOPTION OF THE ACT Consultations, involving experts from all the 28 Member States have been carried within the Experts Group for Wine. The first meeting held on 23 July 2015 was organised to launch discussions in the form of a workshop chaired by Member State experts. The meeting allowed for a first discussion with experts on the basis of questions prepared by the Commission, and Member State rapporteurs prepared reports of such discussions. In the Experts' Group meeting of 20 October 2015 the Commission submitted for discussion a first issues paper (concerning the provisions on vineyard register and compulsory declarations), incorporating the outcome of the workshop discussions, followed by the launching of a questionnaire on the specific topic of the vineyard register. The outcomes of the latter were discussed in the Experts' Group meeting of 23 February On the other hand, a second issues paper (concerning provisions on accompanying documents, registers and trade regime with third countries) was submitted and discussed during the Experts' Group meetings of 17 November 2015, 16 EN 3 EN
