Decision (EU) 2019/339 of the President of the European Commission of 21 February... (32019D0339)
EU - Rechtsakte: 17 Law relating to undertakings

DECISION (EU) 2019/339 OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION

of 21 February 2019

on the function and terms of reference of the hearing officer in certain trade proceedings

THE PRESIDENT OF THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to the Rules of Procedure of the Commission (1), and in particular Article 22 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 41 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union provides that every person has the right to have their affairs handled impartially, fairly and within a reasonable time by the institutions, bodies, offices and agencies of the Union. That article sets out a series of procedural rights that apply to interested parties involved in administrative proceedings which may affect their interests.
(2) In 2007, the Commission created the function of hearing officer, in order to safeguard the effective exercise of the procedural rights of interested parties and ensure that trade proceedings are handled impartially, fairly and within a reasonable time. From 2007 to 2012, that role was entrusted to an official of the Directorate-General for Trade experienced in trade defence issues.
(3) In 2012, in order to strengthen the role of the hearing officer, and to reinforce the transparency and fairness of trade proceedings, the President of the Commission adopted Decision 2012/199/EU (2). In order to take into account past experience, new legal developments including the reference to the role of the hearing officer in Regulations (EU) 2016/1036 (3) and (EU) 2016/1037 (4) of the European Parliament and of the Council as well as increasing procedural constraints, that Decision should be replaced.
(4) The function of the hearing officer should be attributed to an independent person experienced in trade proceedings. The hearing officer should be appointed by the Commission in accordance with the rules laid down in the Staff Regulations of Officials and the Conditions of Employment of Other Servants of the European Union. In accordance with those rules, consideration may be given to candidates who are not officials of the Commission.
(5) In order to ensure full independence, the hearing officer should be attached, for administrative purposes only, to the member of the Commission responsible for trade policy.
(6) The main tasks of the hearing officer should be to advise the member of the Commission responsible for trade policy and the Director-General responsible for trade policy (‘the Director-General’), to guarantee procedural rights, decide on requests for access to the file, to take decisions on the confidential nature of documents and to review the position of the Commission services responsible for the extension of deadlines. The hearing officer should seek to ensure that in the preparation of draft legal acts or proposals, due account is taken of all the relevant facts, whether favourable or unfavourable to the parties concerned.
(7) The hearing officer should ensure that the opportunities afforded to interested parties for presenting evidence of facts and defence of their interests during the proceeding are such as to enable them to exercise their rights of defence in the most effective manner.
(8) The intervention of the hearing officer should take place in a manner that any follow-up can be implemented, bearing in mind the time constraints of the proceedings.
(9) It is necessary to determine the manner and circumstances in which the hearing officer may intervene, and to establish rules for the organisation, conduct and follow-up of such interventions.
(10) The power of the hearing officer to decide on issues concerning access to the file, confidentiality and deadlines should provide the parties involved in a trade proceeding with an additional procedural guarantee whilst not impeding the orderly conduct and timely completion of proceedings.
(11) The reports of the hearing officer should ensure that the main issues dealt with, and recommendations made by the hearing officer are brought to the attention of the decision-makers and thus provide an additional guarantee for the respect of the rights of parties affected by a trade proceeding. The annual reports of the hearing officer should also inform the Member States, the European Parliament and the public about the main activities of the hearing officer.
(12) When processing personal data, the hearing officer should adhere to Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 of the European Parliament and of the Council (5).
(13) This Decision should be without prejudice to the general rules granting or excluding access to Commission documents,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 14

Non-confidential summaries of confidential information

1.   An interested party may request the hearing officer to review the assessment of the Commission services responsible for the investigation as to whether a non-confidential summary of confidential information submitted in the course of an investigation is in sufficient detail to permit a reasonable understanding of the substance of the information submitted in confidence.

3.   The hearing officer shall examine the requests. If the non-confidential summary is not sufficiently detailed, the hearing officer shall give the interested party that provided the summary an opportunity to comment and improve its summary within a reasonable time.
4.   If the interested party that submitted the confidential information provides a deficient summary or offers justifications that cannot be accepted or does not act, the hearing officer shall decide whether or not to disregard confidential information for which no meaningful non-confidential summary has been provided in accordance with the relevant provisions of the basic Regulations.

Article 15

Access to confidential information not susceptible to summary

At the request of an interested party the hearing officer may examine information that is confidential and not susceptible to summary, for which confidentiality has been requested and to which that party has no access, in order to verify how that information was used by the Commission services responsible for the investigation.
The hearing officer shall inform the requesting interested party whether:
(a) the information withheld from that party is relevant to that party's defence;
(b) where relevant, the investigation services have correctly reflected the information in the facts and considerations on which they have based their conclusions.

Article 16

Extension of deadlines

1.   A request for extension of time limits or postponement of the dates for replying to questionnaires, for submitting additional information, for on-the-spot visits, or for comments on disclosures shall first be addressed by any interested party to the Commission services responsible for the investigation. Such a request shall be made in due time before the expiry of the original time limit.
Where such a request is rejected or where the interested party considers that the extension given is too short, it may submit, before the expiry of the original time limit, a reasoned request to the hearing officer to review the matter. The request shall be submitted directly to the hearing officer.
After hearing the Director responsible or their delegate, the hearing officer may extend the time limits or reject the request.
The hearing officer shall decide with due regard to the specific circumstances of the request concerned and the time constraints of the proceeding.
2.   The Commission services shall not act in the matter referred to the hearing officer before the hearing officer has decided.

Article 18

Reports of the hearing officer

1.   At the end of each year, the hearing officer shall prepare an annual report. The annual report shall contain information on the cases in which the hearing officer intervened, the type of decisions and recommendations made and any recommendation for improving the trade proceedings. The report shall be addressed to the member of the Commission responsible for trade policy.

The Director-General shall receive a copy of such information.
4.   The hearing officer shall report on any hearing among interested parties with different interests and may report to the member of the Commission responsible for trade policy and the Director-General on any other issue arising out of a trade proceeding or otherwise relevant for the effective application of Union law in trade proceedings.
5.   The final report of the hearing officer in hearings among parties with different interests shall be submitted to the member of the Commission responsible for trade policy, the Director-General and the Director concerned. It shall be communicated to the competent representatives of the Member States and the interested parties.
