EU approval of Italian state aid for rural and forestry cooperation in Piemonte
This measure clears Italy to run a €3.8 million grant scheme in Piemonte for cooperation projects linked to rural development, local development, smart villages, and forestry. The European Commission reviewed the aid and raised no objections. Eligible recipients in rural, agricultural, forestry, and related sectors may receive direct grants covering up to 100% of eligible costs. The scheme runs until 31 December 2029, with an annual budget of €950,000.
EU merger notice for BAG, EVI and REMEX joint control of Baureka
The notice opens the EU Commission’s review of a proposed deal in which BAG, Eurovia Industrie and REMEX would jointly control Baureka, a German company active in recycling construction materials, grate ash, metals and mineral substitute materials. The case matters mainly to companies in building materials, road construction, waste processing and recycling markets around Germany. The Commission says the transaction may fall under EU merger review and is likely suitable for the simplified procedure. Third parties can submit comments if they believe the deal could affect competition.
EU notice updates the product specification for Slovenian PGI Kraška panceta
This notice approves technical updates to the EU-protected product specification for Kraška panceta, a Slovenian protected geographical indication. The main practical change is a clearer storage rule: mature unwrapped products must be kept in the dark at up to 10°C, while vacuum-packed products must be stored at up to 8°C. It also updates labelling language by removing wording that is already covered by EU or national rules and adding that producers can obtain a brand mark and logo from the association. The change mainly affects producers, packers, and compliance teams handling Kraška panceta under the PGI scheme.
EU Consultation on Thai Geographical Indications
The EU is asking for objections before it decides whether to protect 75 Thai geographical indications under a future EU-Thailand Free Trade Agreement. These names cover products linked to specific Thai regions, including many agricultural products. Businesses, trademark owners, producers, and trade groups can object within two months if a proposed name conflicts with an existing protected name, trademark, plant variety, animal breed, long-used product name, or if the name is generic. Objections must be substantiated and sent to the European Commission by email.
EU Update to Lithuania’s Residence Permit List
This update replaces the EU’s published list of Lithuanian residence permits used for Schengen border checks. It identifies the Lithuanian residence documents that border authorities should recognize, including temporary residence permits, long-term EU resident permits, and residence cards for family members of EU citizens. The practical effect is mainly administrative. Border officials, immigration teams, carriers, and compliance staff who verify travel or residence status should use the updated Lithuanian document descriptions when checking whether a person holds a recognized residence permit for Schengen border purposes.

EU notice on continued Haiti sanctions listings
The EU keeps certain people and one entity on its Haiti sanctions list. The restrictions under the EU’s Haiti sanctions framework continue to apply to those listed, including asset freezes and related limits set out in the relevant EU measures. Listed parties can ask national authorities for permission to use frozen funds for basic needs or specific payments. They can also ask the Council to review their listing before 1 March 2027 and may challenge the decision before the EU General Court.
EU Publishes PDO Application for Slovak Mineral Water ‘Sulinka’
This notice opens the EU opposition period for registering ‘Sulinka’, a Slovak natural mineral water, as a protected designation of origin. The application describes Sulinka as an alkaline sodium-bicarbonate mineral water from Slovakia, drawn from a specific borehole and linked to a defined geographical area. Businesses or authorities with a legitimate interest can challenge the registration within three months of publication. If approved, the name ‘Sulinka’ would receive EU protection, limiting its commercial use to products that meet the registered specification.
EU corrigendum to electronic evidence orders regulation
This corrigendum fixes wording and cross-references in the EU regulation on European Production Orders and European Preservation Orders for electronic evidence in criminal cases. It does not create a new compliance regime or change the core rules for service providers, prosecutors, or courts. The corrections mainly narrow emergency wording so that orders can be sent to a specified addressee when a provider’s designated establishment or legal representative has not reacted within the deadlines. It also corrects an article reference in the test for whether a production order is necessary and proportionate.
