COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 574/86
of 28 February 1986
laying down detailed rules for the application of the supplementary trade mechanism (STM)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 569/86 of 25 February 1986 laying down general rules of application of the supplementary trade mechanism (1), and in particular Article 7 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3792/85 of 20 December 1986 laying down arrangements applying to trade in agricultural products between Spain and Portugal (2), and in particular Article 13 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3793/85 (4), and in particular Articles 12 (2), 15 (5), 16 (6) and Article 24 thereof, and the corresponding provisions in the other regulations on the common organization of the markets in agricultural products,
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 569/86 provides for the use of STM licences and STM import licences for the purposes of the management of the supplementary trade mechanism; whereas, when detailed rules of application of the STM are being established, reference should be made, as far as possible, to the rules laid down by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3183/80 of 3 December 1980 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences and advance fixing certificates for agricultural products (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1994/84 (6);
Whereas, however, in particular with regard to the issue of licences, exceptions should be made to these rules to enable the quantities fixed under the STM to be properly administered;
Whereas the supplementary trade mechanism provides that certain agricultural products will be subject to a guide quantity and that others will be subject only to an indicative ceiling; whereas the guide quantities and the relevant control measures will apply only until 31 December 1989;
Whereas an indication should be given as to the customs statuses of the products to which the STM applies;
Whereas all imports into the Community of Ten of certain products covered by Regulation (EEC) No 337/79 of 5 February 1979 concerning the common organization of the market in wine (7), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3805/85 (8), are subject to the presentation of an import certificate; whereas imports of wine sector products into the Community of Ten which take place after 1 March 1986 from third countries must be carried out under cover of an STM import licence; whereas in the hope of both avoiding trade being hindered and an increase in the related administrative formalities, it seems appropriate to foresee that import certificates delivered before 1 March 1986 shall be substituted, for the period of their validity, for STM import licences.
Whereas the relevant management committees have not delivered opinons within the time limits set by their chairmen,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 16
1. Box 14 of the STM licence applications and the STM import licences and the related licences referred to in Article 15 may give the indication of a Member State of entry for home use; in this case, the word 'origin' in box 14 shall be deleted.
An STM licence or STM import licence listing a Member State in box 14 does not make it obligatory to import into this Member State.
An indication of the Member State of entry for home use may also be given in writing to the agency to which application for an MCE licence or MCE import licence was made; in this case, this indication must have reached the competent agency at least two days before the activation of the measures prohibiting the use of the licence in the Member State of entry for home use.
2. Where, following the application of a prohibition measure, the licence can no longer be used in the Member State indicated, the security corresponding to the quantities not used shall be released at the request of the parties concerned.
