The national emissions registries of Greece  and Latvia will resume normal operations on 30 March 2011 at 8 am CET.  
  This decision follows completion by the  Commission of its review of reports from the two countries` national registries  on the adequacy of their security measures. With these reports, the two  countries have given reasonable assurances that the minimum security  requirements are in place. 
  This will bring to 23 the number of  registries that will have resumed normal operations following the suspension  from 19 January 2011 of transactions, except for the allocation and surrender  of allowances, in all EU ETS national registries due to cases of cyber theft. 
  The Commission will continue to provide  updates on the situation and will announce the planned re-activation of each  national registry 24 hours in advance.
