Commission Regulation (EC) No 363/2002
of 27 February 2002
amending Regulation (EC) No 1608/2000 laying down transitional measures pending the definitive measures implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2585/2001(2), and in particular Article 80 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1608/2000 of 24 July 2000 laying down transitional measures pending the definitive measures implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2352/2001(4), extends the applicability of certain Council provisions repealed by Article 81 of Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 until 28 February 2002, pending the finalisation and adoption of measures implementing that Regulation. The finalisation and adoption of those implementing measures will not be completed by 28 February 2002. Certain Council provisions repealed by Article 81 of Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 should accordingly be allowed to stand for a short additional period.
(2) The extra transitional period does not affect the implementation of the bulk of the reform of the common organisation of the market in wine on the date set by the Council since the main points concerning the areas covered by those Regulations have been settled in Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 or in the implementing Regulations already adopted.
(3) Less progress has been made in adopting implementing measures in certain areas than in others, for example regarding the description, designation, presentation and protection of certain wine products, because of the complexity and sensitivity of the issues the Council has to deal with and the direct impact of any measures adopted on operators in the Community and in non-Member countries. Provision should therefore be made for an extra transitional period in order to allow for the final adoption of those measures.
(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Regulation (EC) No 1608/2000 is amended as follows:
1. In Article 1, the date "28 February 2002" is replaced by "30 April 2002".
2. In Article 3, the date "28 February 2002" is replaced by "30 April 2002".
3. In part B of the Annex, the date "28 February 2002" is replaced by "30 April 2002".
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply from 1 March 2002.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 2308/97 of 17 November 1997 reintroducing a 12 % rate of duty to be applied to certain products falling within CN code 5607
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community and in particular Article 113,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas the import duty on processed products of sisal or other textile fibres of the genus Agave falling within CN codes 5607 21 00, 5607 29 10 and 5607 29 90 was reduced and bound at 12 % by the Community in the context of the Tokyo Round of Multilateral Trade Negotiations;
Whereas the bound rate of 12 % on these products was subsequently withdrawn in accordance with the provisions of GATT Article XXVIII and was replaced by an autonomous rate of 25 % in Council Regulation (EEC) No 283/91 (1);
Whereas, in the context of the Uruguay Round of Multilateral Trade Negotiations, the Community undertook to reintroduce the 12 % duty rate once Brazil had definitively eliminated the tax applied on exports of sisal fibres by the States of Paraiba and Bahia; whereas Brazil has, in the mean time, exempted the said exports of sisal fibres taxes; whereas, as a consequence it is appropriate to reintroduce the 12 % duty rate and to repeal Regulation (EEC) No 283/91; whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (2), should as a result be amended,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 is hereby amended as follows:
>TABLE>
Article 2
Regulation (EEC) No 283/91 is hereby repealed.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 of 30 June 1992 establishing a support system for producers of certain arable crops(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1251/1999(2), and in particular Article 12 thereof,
(1) Whereas Article 10(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 stipulates that, to qualify for the compensatory payments for cereals, protein crops and linseed under the support system for certain arable crops, producers must have sown the seed at the latest by 15 May preceding the relevant harvest;

(3) Whereas, because of the particular weather conditions this year, the final dates for sowing seeds fixed in several Member States cannot be complied with in all cases; whereas, in consequence, the time limit for sowing cereals and/or oilseeds, and/or protein crops and/or linseed for the 1999/2000 marketing year should, where necessary, be deferred for certain specific regions; whereas to do so Regulations (EEC) No 1765/92 and (EC) No 658/96 should be waived as permitted by the seventh indent of Article 12 of Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92;
(4) Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1098/1999(5) has fixed the final date for sowing certain arable crops in certain regions in the 1999/2000 marketing year;
(5) Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Joint Management Committee for Cereals, Oils and Fats and Dried Fodder,
