Commission Regulation (EC) No 806/2001

of 26 April 2001

amending Regulation (EC) No 174/1999, as regards management of the milk powder quota for export to the Dominican Republic

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1670/2000(2), and in particular Article 30(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Article 20a of Commission Regulation (EC) No 174/1999 of 26 January 1999 laying down special detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 as regards export licences and export refunds in the case of milk and milk products(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2884/2000(4), lays down the provisions applicable to the management of the milk powder quota for export to the Dominican Republic under the Memorandum of Understanding concluded between the European Community and the Dominican Republic and approved by Council Decision 98/486/EC(5).

(2) In view of the difficulties encountered in the Dominican Republic during 2000 in implementing the Memorandum, that year should be excluded from the reference period for future applications under the quota. Measures should also be taken to avoid the cancellation of licences. Accordingly, the amount of the security for exports under the quota should be increased and release of that security should be conditional upon proof being provided that the products had been declared for import in the Dominican Republic during the year of the quota. Other provisions should be adapted in order to guarantee better administration of the scheme.

(3) In view of the fact that the period for the submission of licence applications is fixed at 1 to 10 May 2001, this Regulation should enter into force immediately.

(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
