COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 293/97 of 17 February 1997 amending Regulation (EEC) No 738/92 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty in imports of cotton yarn originating in Brazil and Turkey, with regard to two Turkish companies
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
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),
Having regard to Regulation (EEC) No 738/92 (2) and in particular Article 1 (6) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, after consulting the Advisory Committee,
Whereas:
A. Previous procedure
(1) The Council, by Regulation (EEC) No 738/92, imposed definitive anti-dumping duties on imports of cotton yarn falling within CN codes 5205 11 00 to 5205 45 90 and 5206 11 00 to 5206 45 90 originating, inter alia, in Turkey. Sampling was applied to Turkish exporters, and individual duties ranging from 4,9 % to 12,1 % were imposed on the companies in the sample, while other cooperating companies not included in the sample received a weighted average duty of 9 %. A duty of 12,1 % was imposed on companies which either did not make themselves known or did not cooperate in the investigation.
B. New exporters' review request
(2) The Commission received applications for a new exporters' review of the duties currently applicable to two Turkish companies Abalioglu AS and Kipas AS, which claimed that they were not related to any of the exporters or producers subject to the anti-dumping measures, and that they had not exported the product concerned during the period of investigation on which the measures were based. Furthermore, the companies claimed that they had actually exported the product to the Community after the abovementioned investigation period.
(3) Abalioglu AS and Kipas AS provided, on request, evidence which was considered sufficient to prove that the requirements established in Article 11 (4) of Regulation (EC) No 384/96 (hereinafter referred to as the 'Basic Regulation`) to qualify for a new exporters' review had been fulfilled. Since sampling was used in the investigation which was concluded by Regulation (EEC) No 738/92, the request for a review pursuant to Article 11 (4) of the Basic Regulation could not be accepted. However, the evidence provided by these companies is sufficient to allow Regulation (EEC) No 738/92 to be amended pursuant to Article 1 (6) of that Regulation, in order to make these exporters subject to the duty imposed by Article 1 (2) of that Regulation,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 738/92 is hereby amended as follows:
- under paragraph 2 (b) the following shall be added at the end of the text:
'Abalioglu AS 9,0 % (Taric additional code 8569)`
'Kipas AS 9,0 % (Taric additional code 8569).`
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 138/2010
of 18 February 2010
fixing the export refunds on milk and milk products
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
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 164(2), in conjunction with Article 4, thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Article 162(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 provides that the difference between prices on the world market for the products listed in Part XVI of Annex I to that Regulation and prices for those products on the Community market may be covered by an export refund.
(2)
Given the present situation on the market in milk and milk products, export refunds should be fixed in accordance with the rules and certain criteria provided for in Articles 162, 163, 164, 167, 169 and 170 of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007.
(3)
Article 164(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 provides that export refunds may vary according to destination, especially where the world market situation, the specific requirements of certain markets or obligations resulting from agreements concluded in accordance with Article 300 of the Treaty make this necessary.

Export refunds for the Dominican Republic have been differentiated to take into account the reduced custom duties applied on imports under the import tariff quota under the Memorandum of Understanding between the European Community and the Dominican Republic on import protection for milk powder in the Dominican Republic (2), approved by Council Decision 98/486/EC (3). Due to a changed market situation in the Dominican Republic, characterised by increased competition for milk powder, the quota is no longer fully used. In order to maximise the use of the quota, the differentiation of export refunds for the Dominican Republic should be abolished.

The Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its Chair,

Article 1
Export refunds as provided for in Article 164 of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 shall be granted on the products and for the amounts set out in the Annex to this Regulation, subject to the conditions provided for in Article 3(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006 (4).
