COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 326/2010
of 21 April 2010
amending Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 establishing an agricultural product nomenclature for export refunds
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 170 thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 (2) establishes an agricultural product nomenclature for export refunds on the basis of the Combined Nomenclature.

The refund nomenclature provides for cheeses to be eligible for an export refund if they meet minimum requirements as regards milk dry matter and milk fat. A particular type of cheese produced in some new Member States meets those necessary requirements but does not benefit from a refund since it is not covered by the present classification system of the export refund nomenclature. Given the importance of the particular cheese for the dairy industry, it is appropriate to add the product codes enabling that cheese to be classified under the export refund nomenclature.
