Proposal for a COUNCIL DECISION on the position to be taken by the Community in the Association Council established by the Europe Agreement between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and Estonia, of the other part, concerning the improvement of the trade arrangements for processed agricultural products provided for in Protocol 2 of the Europe Agreement between the European Community and Estonia

(presented by the Commission)

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

Under the terms of Article 18 of the Europe Agreement between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Estonia, of the other part, approved by the Decision of the Council and of the Commission (98/180/EC, ECSC, Euratom) of 19 December 1997 [1], Protocol 2 lays down the trade arrangements for the processed agricultural products which are listed therein. Protocol 2 was amended by Decision 6/2001 of the EU-Estonia Association Council [2].

[1] OJ L 68, 9.3.1998, p. 1

[2] OJ L 29, 3.2.1999, p. 11

Council directives authorised the Commission to enter into negotiations with Estonia with a view to improving the trade arrangement for processed agricultural products in preparation for accession.

The two parties have reached a draft agreement, which envisages completed liberalisation of trade for certain processed agricultural products and duty free quotas or a reduction of import duties for others.

For imports outside of these quotas the current trade provisions as laid down by Protocol 2 of the Europe Agreement will continue to apply.

Processed Agricultural Products, not covered by Annex I to the Treaty will not be eligible for export refunds under Commission Regulation (EC) No 1520/2000 of 13 July 2000 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of granting export refunds on certain agricultural products exported in the form of goods, not covered by Annex I to the Treaty, and the criteria for fixing the amounts of such refunds [3].

[3] OJ L 177, 15.7.2000, p. 1. Regulation as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 740/2003 (OJ L 106, 29.4.2003, p. 12)

The Council has authorised the implementation of this agreement in the form of autonomous and transitional measures, which have been in force since 1 July 2003. It is therefore proposed to the Council to adopt this joint position for a Decision of the Association Council to amend the Annexes to Protocol 2.

2004/0021 (ACC)

Proposal for a COUNCIL DECISION on the position to be taken by the Community in the Association Council established by the Europe Agreement between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and Estonia, of the other part, concerning the improvement of the trade arrangements for processed agricultural products provided for in Protocol 2 of the Europe Agreement between the European Community and Estonia

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 133 in conjunction with the second subparagraph of Article 300(2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

(1) The Europe Agreement [4] establishes an association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and Estonia, of the other part. Its Protocol 2 on trade arrangements for processed agricultural products has last been amended by Decision No 6 / 2001 of the EU-Estonia Association Council [5].

[4] OJ L 68, 9.3.1998, p. 1

[5] OJ L 29, 3.2.1999, p. 11

(2) New trade improvements have recently been negotiated which aim to improve economic convergence in preparation for accession and lay down concessions in the form of completed liberalisation of trade for certain agricultural products and duty free quotas for others. For imports outside of the quotas the current provisions continue to apply.

(3) Under Protocol 2 the Association Council has to decide in particular on any amendment of the duties mentioned in the annexes to Protocol 2 and on the increase or abolition of tariff quotas.

(4) Under Article 1 (3) of that Protocol, the Association Council also decides that the duties applied may be reduced in response to reductions resulting from mutual concessions relating to processed agricultural products.

(5) The concessions granted by the European Union entered into force on 1 July 2003 in accordance with Council Regulation (EC) No 1039/2003 [6] of 2 June 2003 adopting autonomous and transitional measures concerning the importation of certain processed agricultural products originating in Estonia and the exportation of certain processed agricultural products to Estonia. Regulation No 1039/2003 will be redundant and should therefore be repealed as soon as the decision of the Association Council enters into force.

[6] OJ L 151, 19.6.2003, p. 1

(6) Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 of 2 July 1993 laying down provisions for the implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code [7] provides the procedures for managing the tariff quotas to be used in chronological order of the dates of the customs declarations. These procedures should be applicable for imports under the tariff Association Council Decision.

[7] OJ L 253, 11.10.1993, p. 1, as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1335/2003 (OJ L 187, 26.7.2003, p. 16)

HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:

Article 1

The position to be taken by the Community in the Association Council established by the Europe Agreement between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and Estonia, of the other part, concerning the improvement of Protocol 2 on the bilateral trade of processed agricultural products, shall be based on a draft Decision of the Association Council attached to this Decision.

Article 2

Regulation (EC) No 1039/2003 shall be repealed on the date when the Decision of the Association Council attached to this Decision enters into force.

Article 3

The tariff quotas set out in Annex II of the Decision of the Association Council shall be managed by the Commission in accordance with Articles 308a, 308b and 308c of Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93.
