COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 2496/89
of 2 August 1989
on a prohibition on importing raw and worked ivory derived from the African elephant into the Community
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3626/82 of 3 December 1982 on the implementation in the Community of the Convention on international trade in endangered species of wild fauna and flora (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 610/89 (2), and in particular Article 21 thereof,
Having regard to the opinion of the Committee on the Convention on international trade in endangered species of wild fauna and flora,
Whereas despite the ivory quota system established by the Parties to the Convention on international trade in endangered species of wild fauna and flora, most ivory is traded outside that system and illegal and excessive taking of elephants continues to take place at unsustainable levels;
Whereas some ivory producing countries are currently unable to effectively control the taking of elephants and the number of tusks entering international trade;
Whereas intermediary and ivory consuming countries are currently not able to ensure that all ivory trade originates from legal sources;
Whereas a number of Parties to the Convention on international trade in endangered species of wild fauna und flora, amongst which are several important countries of origin of the African elephant, have proposed the transfer of the species from Appendix II to Appendix I of the Convention;
Whereas the adoption of that proposal by the next meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention in October 1989 would end international commercial trade in ivory and other products derived from elephants as of January 1990;
Whereas it is generally believed that poachers and unscrupulous traders will use the period between now and the date on which Appendix I listing take effect to acquire as much ivory as possible which will lead to an increase of poaching at an unprecented level;
Whereas, in order to prevent this expected wave of increased poaching, intermediary and ivory consuming nations should prohibit all imports of ivory derived from the African elephant with immediate effect;
Whereas any importation into the Community of ivory derived from the African elephant does not currently meet the conditions laid down in Article 10 (1) (b) of Regulation (EEC) No 3626/82,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
1. The issue of import permits for raw and worked ivory derived from the African elephant (Loxodonta africana) is hereby prohibited.
2. By way of derogation from paragraph 1, import permits may be issued in the circumstances referred to in the Annex hereto. Member States shall inform the Commission of any permit issued under this provision.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Community.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

(3)
According to an official declaration from the Lithuanian competent authority certain establishments in the meat, milk and fish sectors have completed their upgrading process and are now in full compliance with Community legislation.

A limited number of establishments have made considerable efforts to comply with structural requirements laid down by Community legislation. However these establishments are not in position to finish their upgrading process by the prescribed deadline due to exceptional technical constraints. Therefore it is justified to allow them further time to complete the upgrading process.
(5)
Appendix B to Annex IX to the 2003 Act of Accession should therefore be amended accordingly. For the sake of clarity, it should be replaced.
(6)
The Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health has been informed of the measures provided for in this Decision,
