(2005/381/EC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community and amending Council Directive 96/61/EC1, and in particular Article 21(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

The questionnaire to be used by the Member States for the purpose of drawing up the annual reports on the implementation of Directive 2003/87/EC should aim at establishing a detailed account of the application by the Member States of the chief measures laid down in that Directive as well as of the following measures, to the extent that they are closely linked to the implementation of Directive 2003/87/EC: Council Directive 96/61/EC of 24 September 1996 concerning integrated pollution prevention and control2, Commission Decision 2004/156/EC of 29 January 2004 establishing guidelines for the monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions pursuant to Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council3, and Commission Regulation (EC) No 2216/2004 of 21 December 2004 for a standardised and secured system of registries pursuant to Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Decision No 280/2004/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council4. It should be appropriate to review the questionnaire at regular intervals.

(2)

The first report is due by 30 June 2005. However, it is desirable to have one annual report covering the first whole year of operation of the scheme. The first report should therefore cover the period from 1 January 2005 to 30 April 2005, and the second report, due by 30 June 2006, should cover the period from 1 January 2005 to 31 December 2005. Subsequent reports should be submitted to the Commission by 30 June each year and should cover the preceding calendar year from 1 January to 31 December.

(3)

The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established in accordance with Article 6 of Council Directive 91/692/EEC of 23 December 1991 standardising and rationalising reports in the implementation of certain Directives relating to the environment5,
