Traduction de «Flower arrangement » (Anglais → Français) :

I also welcome the excellent work undertaken by the rapporteur, Mr Savary, particularly on the proposals for amendments on the creation of a European road information system, on extending exemptions for the transport of flowers and fresh horticultural products, as well as on the social conditions arising from the disparities in national provisions that could be resolved by social measures. The report has suggested some measures, such as periods of compensatory rest time and extra pay arrangements.

In this context I should like to highlight some of the changes taken up by the rapporteur and approved by the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development concerning the regions that I know best, the Azores and Madeira. For instance: the eligibility of traditional varieties for the purposes of vineyard restructuring, including premiums for the grubbing-up of those varieties; maintenance of the supplement to the special premium for the fattening of bovine animals, so as to encourage farmers who have no more milk quota to change over to beef and ensure that the added value of fattening does not leave the region in the form of very young cattle for export; the flexibility of granting aid for the marketing of plants and ...[+++]flowers without the need to draw up annual contracts with producers’ organisations, which would be impossible in view of the inadequate organisation of agriculture in these regions; the extension of aid to the marketing of potatoes for human consumption; the increase in production rights and premiums for strategic productions, such as suckler cows, bovine animals for fattening, or sugar beet; improvement of the special supply arrangement with the inclusion of certain raw materials essential for the competitiveness of the compound feedingstuff production sector and consequently for the livestock sector.

At the time of the accident Colleen was studying horticulture. She loved flowers and had a collection of her most artistic arrangements.

Whereas large-flowered and small flowered roses and unifloral and multifloral carnations are only covered by these quotas subject to the conditions laid down by Council Regulation (EEC) No 4088/87 of 21 December 1987 establishing conditions for the application of preferential customs duties on imports of certain floricultural products originating in Cyprus, Israel and Jordan (3); whereas these favourable tariff arrangements apply only to imports in respect of which certain price conditions are observed; whereas, in addition, Israel ...[+++]has undertaken to respect the traditional division of trade flows between roses and carnations;

In the case of agricultural products, the preferential arrangements currently applicable to certain Israeli products imported into the Community and to Community exports to Israel are being expanded by increasing existing concessions, in particular for cut flowers and citrus fruits, and by introducing concessions for further products.

Thus, Member States may apply a reduced VAT rate to living plants and other products from the floricultural sector (including bulbs, roots and the like, cut flowers and ornamental foliage) and wood for use as firewood for the duration of the transitional VAT arrangements of intra-Community trade referred to in Article 28(l) of the Sixth EC VAT-Directive (77/388/EEC).
