of 28 April 2006
correcting Regulation (EC) No 299/2006 on the issue of import licences for rice originating in the ACP States and the overseas countries and territories against applications submitted in the first five working days of February 2006 pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 638/2003
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2286/2002 of 10 December 2002 on the arrangements applicable to agricultural products and goods resulting from the processing of agricultural products originating in the African, Caribbean and Pacific States (ACP States) and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1706/98 (1),
Having regard to Council Decision 2001/822/EC of 27 November 2001 on the association of the overseas countries and territories with the European Community (Overseas Association Decision) (2),

Whereas:
(1)
Commission Regulation (EC) No 299/2006 (4) lays down the quantities carried over to the tranche for May 2006, indicating the ACP quota only.
(2)
The first paragraph of Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 638/2003 provides that applications for a licence to import rice originating in the ACP States falling within CN codes 1006 10 21, 1006 10 23, 1006 10 25, 1006 10 27, 1006 10 92, 1006 10 94, 1006 10 96, 1006 10 98, 1006 20 and 1006 30 and rice originating in the OCTs falling within CN code 1006 may be lodged for quantities carried over as referred to in Article 3(2) of that Regulation.
(3)
Allocating the quantities carried over to the ACP quota only was therefore not correct. As a result, the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 299/2006 should be corrected to specify the conditions for placing the quantities available at the disposal of traders,

The first subparagraph of Article 8(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1342/2003 of 28 July 2003 laying down special detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences for cereals and rice (3) states that export licences for the products referred to in that subparagraph must be issued on the third working day after applications are lodged, provided that no special measures are taken in the meanwhile.
