Kommissionen har dog ikke formået at fremlægge et udkast til forordning og ønsker derfor at forlænge den nuværende forordnings gyldighed indtil den 1. januar 2013, hvor EU forventes at have lovgivning klar til vedtagelse i Rådet og Parlamentet i overensstemmelse med den almindelige lovgivningsprocedure, der er fastlagt i Lissabontraktaten.
However, the Commission was unable to table a draft regulation. The Commission is therefore seeking the extension of the current regulation until 1 January 2013, by which time the EU is expected to have legislation for adoption by the Council and Parliament, in line with the ordinary legislative procedure set out in the Treaty of Lisbon.
