THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 November 2012 on quality schemes for agricultural products and foodstuffs (1), and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 53(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) In accordance with the first subparagraph of Article 53(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, the Commission has examined Italy’s application for the approval of amendments to the specification for the protected geographical indication ‘Amarene Brusche di Modena’ registered under Commission Regulation (EC) No 1028/2009 (2).
(2) The purpose of the application is to amend the specification by indicating the sugar content of the fruit at the time of picking and during processing as well as the amount of sugar (saccharose) that may be added before the concentration process and by authorising containers using formats and materials different from those provided for at the time of registration.
(3) The Commission has examined the amendments in question and decided that they are justified. Since the amendments are minor within the meaning of the third subparagraph of Article 53(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, the Commission may approve them without following the procedure set out in Articles 50 to 52 of the Regulation,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
