Commission Regulation (EU) No 161/2011

of 21 February 2011

entering a name in the register of traditional specialities guaranteed (‘Liptovská saláma’ or ‘Liptovský salám’ (TSG))

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 509/2006 of 20 March 2006 on agricultural products and foodstuffs as traditional specialities guaranteed1, and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 9(4) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)
Pursuant to the first subparagraph of Article 8(2) of Regulation (EC) No 509/2006, the Czech Republic and Slovakia’s joint application to register the name ‘Liptovská saláma’/‘Liptovský salám’ was published in the Official Journal of the European Union 2.
(2)

As no objection under Article 9 of Regulation (EC) No 509/2006 has been received by the Commission, that name should therefore be entered in the register.

(3)

The application also requested protection under Article 13(2) of Regulation (EC) No 509/2006. That protection should be granted to the name ‘Liptovská saláma’/‘Liptovský salám’ in so far as, in the absence of objections, it could not be demonstrated that the name is used in a lawful, renowned and economically significant manner for similar agricultural products or foodstuffs,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
