COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 12/1999 of 7 January 1999 amending Regulation (EC) No 1921/95 laying down detailed rules for the application of the system of import licences for products processed from fruit and vegetables and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 3566/90
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2201/96 of 28 October 1996 on the common organisation of the market in products processed from fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2199/97 (2), and in particular Article 11(2) thereof,
Whereas the Annex to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1921/95 (3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 2427/95 (4), lists the products for which import licences are required and the relevant securities; whereas experience gained with those import control measures and the development of trade and statistical methods allow some products to be deleted from that Annex; whereas, following such deletion, Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 1921/95 serves no further purpose and should be deleted;
Whereas, under the tariff ceiling for processed sour cherries originating in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia fixed in Council Regulation (EC) No 77/98 (5) and administered pursuant to Commission Regulation (EC) No 123/98 (6), the products covered by CN code ex 0813 40 95 should be added to the list of products for which import licences are required and the relevant securities should be fixed;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Products Processed from Fruit and Vegetables,

amending Decision 80/862/EEC authorizing the Member States to provide for derogations from certain provisions of Council Directive 77/93/EEC, in respect of potato breeding material

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 77/93/EEC of 21 December 1976 on protective measures against the introduction into the Member States of harmful organisms of plant or plant products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85 (2), and in particular Article 14 (3) thereof,
Having regard to the requests made by the Member States,
Whereas under the provisions of Directive 77/93/EEC, potato material intended for planting, other than tubers, may in principle not be introduced into any Member State and potato tubers intended for planting may in principle only be introduced into the Member States where they belong to officially accepted varieties or to advance selections;
Whereas, however, Article 14 (3) of the abovementioned Directive permits derogations from that rule, where it is established that there is no risk of spreading harmful organisms;
Whereas in the Member States there is a need to import potato material, including tubers, for work on varietal selection, or for gene conservation or official scientific research purposes;
Whereas the Commission has established that on the basis of the information available at present, there is under such circumstances, risk of spreading harmful organism provided that certain special technical conditions are satisfied;
Whereas by Decision 80/862/EEC (3), as amended by Decision 81/587/EEC (4) the Commission has already granted such a derogation to the Member States for a period which expired on 31 December 1985;
Whereas there has since then been no information giving cause for its restriction to the abovementioned period; whereas there is, moreover, no new information giving cause for its revisions;
Whereas the Member States should therefore be authorized to provide for derogations in respect of potato breeding material for a further period under those special technical conditions;
Whereas the authorization will be extended unless new information gives cause for its revisions;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee en Plant Health,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 of 22 May 2001 on production aid for cotton(2), and in particular Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) In accordance with Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, a world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined periodically from the price for ginned cotton recorded on the world market and by reference to the historical relationship between the price recorded for ginned cotton and that calculated for unginned cotton. That historical relationship has been established in Article 2(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001 of 2 August 2001(3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1486/2002(4). Where the world market price cannot be determined in this way, it is to be based on the most recent price determined.
(2) In accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, the world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined in respect of a product of specific characteristics and by reference to the most favourable offers and quotations on the world market among those considered representative of the real market trend. To that end, an average is to be calculated of offers and quotations recorded on one or more European exchanges for a product delivered cif to a port in the Community and coming from the various supplier countries considered the most representative in terms of international trade. However, there is provision for adjusting the criteria for determining the world market price for ginned cotton to reflect differences justified by the quality of the product delivered and the offers and quotations concerned. Those adjustments are specified in Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001.
(3) The application of the above criteria gives the world market price for unginned cotton determined hereinafter,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The world price for unginned cotton as referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 is hereby determined as equalling EUR 25,995/100 kg.

COMMISSION DECISION of 7 October 1998 concerning an application submitted by DIP Electronics Ltd for the refund of anti-dumping duties due on certain imports of DRAMs originating in Japan (notified under document number C(1998) 2966) (Only the English text is authentic) (98/579/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 384/96 of 22 December 1995 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Community (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 905/98 (2), and in particular Article 11(8) thereof,
After consulting the Advisory Committee,
A. PROCEDURE
(1) Council Regulation (EEC) No 2112/90 (3) imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of certain types of electronic micro-circuits known as DRAMs (dynamic random access memories) originating in Japan. The rate of the residual duty was 60 %.
(2) DIP Electronics Ltd (hereafter referred to as 'the applicant`) lodged on 13 July 1995 an application for the refund of GBP [. . .] (4) of anti-dumping duties due on importation of DRAMs of Japanese origin.
The applicant claimed that the dumping margins in respect of the DRAMs for which anti-dumping duties were due, were significantly lower than the level of 60 % of the residual duty set by Regulation (EEC) No 2112/90. The application, however, did not contain any evidence that the duties for which a refund was claimed had been paid.
The applicant was informed that, in accordance with Article 11(8) of Regulation 384/96 which contains the provisions concerning refund investigations, the application would have to be considered as inadmissible since it did not contain evidence of payment of the anti-dumping duties for which a refund was claimed.
The applicant indicated in reply that it was not in a financial position to make payment of the anti-dumping duties due. The applicant was given further opportunity to pay the anti-dumping duties but failed to do so.
(3) On 13 August 1997 the applicant informed the Commission that DIP Electronics Ltd intended to put its affairs in the hands of an insolvency practitioner. The Commission was subsequently informed that the applicant had proceeded into a creditors voluntary liquidation on 19 August 1997.
(4) The liquidator, representing the applicant, received disclosure of the essential facts and considerations on the basis of which it was intended to reject the application as inadmissible. The liquidator made no comment.
B. ADMISSIBILITY
(5) It has been established that the anti-dumping duties for which a refund is claimed have not been paid by the applicant. Since the prior payment of the anti-dumping duties is one of the basic requirements for the admissibility of a refund application, the application should be rejected as inadmissible.
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The refund application for the amount of GBP [. . .] in total submitted by DIP Electronics Ltd is rejected as inadmissible.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the United Kingdom, and to DIP Electronics Ltd, Sheraton House, Castle Park, Cambridge, CB3 0AX.
