COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) No 630/2011

of 21 June 2011

amending Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 opening and providing for the management of autonomous tariff quotas of the Union for certain agricultural and industrial products

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 31 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Whereas:

| (1) | In order to ensure sufficient and uninterrupted supplies of certain goods insufficiently produced in the Union and to avoid any disturbances on the market, for certain agricultural and industrial products, autonomous tariff quotas have been opened by Council Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 (1) within which those products can be imported at reduced or zero duty rates. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

In order to ensure sufficient and uninterrupted supplies of certain goods insufficiently produced in the Union and to avoid any disturbances on the market, for certain agricultural and industrial products, autonomous tariff quotas have been opened by Council Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 (1) within which those products can be imported at reduced or zero duty rates.

| (2) | The quota volumes, previously established, for autonomous tariff quotas of the Union with order numbers 09.2767, 09.2813, 09.2977, 09.2628, 09.2629 and 09.2635 are insufficient to meet the needs of the Union industry. Consequently, those quota volumes should be increased, from 1 July 2011 in the case of the tariff quotas with the order numbers 09.2767 and 09.2813, and from 1 January 2011 in the case of tariff quotas with the order numbers 09.2977, 09.2628, 09.2629 and 09.2635. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

The quota volumes, previously established, for autonomous tariff quotas of the Union with order numbers 09.2767, 09.2813, 09.2977, 09.2628, 09.2629 and 09.2635 are insufficient to meet the needs of the Union industry. Consequently, those quota volumes should be increased, from 1 July 2011 in the case of the tariff quotas with the order numbers 09.2767 and 09.2813, and from 1 January 2011 in the case of tariff quotas with the order numbers 09.2977, 09.2628, 09.2629 and 09.2635.

| (3) | Moreover, for the autonomous tariff quota of the Union with the order number 09.2631 the product description should be revised. |
| --- | --- |

(3)

Moreover, for the autonomous tariff quota of the Union with the order number 09.2631 the product description should be revised.

| (4) | In addition, it is no longer in the interest of the Union to continue to grant a tariff quota for the second semester of 2011 in respect of the tariff quota with the order number 09.2947. That quota should therefore be closed with effect from 1 July 2011 and the corresponding row should be deleted from the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 7/2010. |

In addition, it is no longer in the interest of the Union to continue to grant a tariff quota for the second semester of 2011 in respect of the tariff quota with the order number 09.2947. That quota should therefore be closed with effect from 1 July 2011 and the corresponding row should be deleted from the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 7/2010.

| (5) | Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly. |

(5)

Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly.

| (6) | Since some of the measures provided for in this Regulation should take effect from 1 January 2011 and others from 1 July 2011, this Regulation should apply from those dates respectively and enter into force immediately, |

Since some of the measures provided for in this Regulation should take effect from 1 January 2011 and others from 1 July 2011, this Regulation should apply from those dates respectively and enter into force immediately,
