Since the objectives of this Regulation, in particular fair competition and the proper functioning of the internal market in organic products, as well as ensuring consumer confidence in those products and in the organic production logo of the European Union, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States themselves but can rather, by reason of the required harmonisation of the rules on organic production, be better achieved at Union level, the Union may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union.
Ós rud é nach féidir leis na Ballstáit cuspóirí an Rialacháin seo a bhaint amach go leordhóthanach, is iad sin, go háirithe, iomaíocht chóir agus dea-fheidhmiú an mhargaidh inmheánaigh i dtáirgí orgánacha mar aon le muinín na dtomhaltóirí as na táirgí sin agus as lógó an Aontais Eorpaigh maidir le táirgeadh orgánach a áirithiú, agus gur fearr, de bharr gur gá na rialacha maidir le táirgeadh orgánach a chomhchuibhiú, is féidir iad a bhaint amach ar leibhéal an Aontais, féadfaidh an tAontas bearta a ghlacadh, i gcomhréir le prionsabal na coimhdeachta a leagtar amach in Airteagal 5 den Chonradh ar an Aontas Eorpach.
