COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1673/89

totally suspending certain customs duties applicable by the Community of Ten to imports from Spain and Portugal
THE COUNCIL 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, and in particular Articles 33 and 192 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas the progressive dismantling of Spanish tariffs has notably improved access to the hitherto heavily protected Spanish market; whereas, however, the economic impact of the progressive reductions in the customs duties applied by the Community of Ten to imports of Spanish industrial products is relatively modest because of the low level of the basic customs duties;
Whereas, in the interests of parallelism and non-discrimination, identical measures should be applied in respect of Portuguese products for which customs duties have not yet been abolished;

Whereas, by Regulation (EEC) No 3482/88 (1), the Council has already defined a specific system of partial suspension of customs duties for preparations and preserves of sardines,

Article 1
The collection of customs duties applicable in the Community of Ten pursuant to the Act of Accession to imports of the following products from Spain and Portugal shall be totally suspended:
- products listed in Annex II to the Treaty insofar as they are the subject of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3796/81 of 29 December 1981 on the common organization of the market in fishery products (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3468/88 (3), excluding the goods listed in the Annex to this Regulation,
