COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 2074/96 of 25 October 1996 amending Regulation (EC) No 3075/95 laying down, for 1996, certain measures for the conservation and management of fishery resources applicable to vessels flying the flag of Norway
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92 of 20 December 1992 establishing a Community system for fisheries and aquaculture (1), and in particular Article 8 (4) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Regulation (EC) No 3075/95 (2) allocates, for 1996, certain catch quotas to vessels flying the flag of Norway in Community waters;
Whereas a catch quota of 50 000 tonnes of herring was allocated to Norway in Community fishing waters in ICES Division IVa and IVb for 1996; whereas this quota has to be reduced in order to reflect the reduction in the underlying North Sea TAC for herring;
Whereas the most recent scientific information and, in particular, the report of the Advisory Committee for Fisheries Management of the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea, indicates that North Sea herring stock is outside safe biological limits and that, in order to protect this stock, it is necessary to take rapid management measures, including, inter alia, a 50 % reduction in the relevant TAC;
Whereas, in accordance with the procedure provided for in Articles 2 and 7 of the Fisheries Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Kingdom of Norway (3), the Parties have held consultations on the urgent measures which are required in the light of the new scientific information, whereas these consultations have been concluded successfully and, as a result, the aforementioned catch quota has been reduced;
Whereas the fishery arrangements agreed upon by the Community and Norway for 1996 provide for the possibility to consider a further transfer of plaice from Norway to the Community after 1 August 1996;
Whereas further consultations were held with Norway, which led to an agreement to transfer, by 1 August 1996, 1 250 tonnes of plaice from Norway to the Community in exchange for a transfer of 10 000 tonnes of blue whiting from the Community to Norway; whereas, as a result of this agreement, these quotas have to be modified accordingly;
Whereas it is now necessary to implement these agreed measures;
Whereas it is for the Council to lay down the specific conditions under which such catches must be taken,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
In Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 3075/75, the figures relating to plaice, blue whiting and herring shall be replaced by those set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
However, the amendments relating to plaice and blue whiting shall apply from 1 August 1996.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

amending Annex VI to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 for the 2008/09 marketing year
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1), and in particular Article 59(1) in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Annex VI to Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 lays down the national and regional quotas for the production of sugar, isoglucose and inulin syrup. For the 2008/09 marketing year those quotas should be adjusted.
(2)
The adjustments result from the allocation of additional and supplementary isoglucose quotas.
(3)
The possible supplementary isoglucose quotas which might be allocated at a later date for the 2008/09 marketing year upon requests by undertakings approved in Italy, Lithuania, and Sweden will be taken into account in the next adjustment of the quotas laid down in Annex VI to Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 before the end of February 2009.
(4)
The adjustments also result from the application of Article 3 of Council Regulation (EC) No 320/2006 of 20 February 2006 establishing a temporary scheme for the restructuring of the sugar industry in the Community and amending Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005 on the financing of the common agricultural policy (2), which provides for restructuring aid for undertakings which renounce their quotas and from the application of Article 4a(4) of that Regulation which provides for a definitive reduction of quotas allocated to undertakings in case of growers' applications for restructuring aid. It is therefore necessary to take account of the quotas renounced or reduced as a result of grower's applications for the 2008/09 marketing year under the restructuring scheme.
(5)
Annex VI to Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(6)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 963/2006
of 27 June 2006
amending Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 temporarily suspending the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on certain industrial, agricultural and fishery products
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 26 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas:
(1)
It is in the interest of the Community to suspend partially or totally the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties for a number of new products not listed in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 (1).
(2)
A number of products which are referred to in the said Regulation should be withdrawn from the list in the Annex because it is no longer in the Community's interest to maintain suspension of autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties or because the description needs to be altered in order to take account of technical product developments and economic trends on the market.
(3)
Accordingly, products whose description needs to be altered should be regarded as new products.
(4)
The validity period of the measure should be 1 July 2006 to 31 December 2008, in order to be able to carry out economic examinations of the individual suspensions in that period. Eight years of experience have shown the need to provide for an expiry date of the suspensions listed in the Annex to this Regulation to ensure that account is taken of technological and economic changes. This should not exclude the premature termination of certain measures or their continuation beyond this period, if economic reasons are submitted, in accordance with the principles laid down in the Commission Communication concerning autonomous tariff suspensions and quotas (2).
(5)
Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 should therefore be amended accordingly,
