(4a) The Commission should assess the Union market for bananas and the situation of Union banana producers and present its findings in a report to the European Parliament and to the Council, no later than one year before the expiry of the stabilisation mechanism for bananas. The report should include a preliminary assessment of the functioning of the " Programme d'Options Spécifiques à l'Éloignement et l'Insularité " (POSEI) in preserving banana production in the Union and the existence of any risks to the overall stability of the Union market or the European producers, after the expiry of the stabilisation mechanism for bananas. If the report identifies such risks, it should consider appropriate measures to address them, including the possibility of entering into new international negotiations in order to extend the applicability of the stabilisation mechanism for bananas beyond 2020 or accompanying compensatory measures to ensure the preservation of banana production in the Union.
