(1)
The European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) was established to provide additional support for workers made redundant as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns due to globalisation and to assist them with their reintegration into the labour market.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) No 1359/2011
of 19 December 2011
amending Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 opening and providing for the management of autonomous tariff quotas of the Union for certain agricultural and industrial products
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 31 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1)
In order to ensure sufficient and uninterrupted supplies of certain goods insufficiently produced in the Union and to avoid any disturbances on the market for certain agricultural and industrial products, autonomous tariff quotas have been opened by Council Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 (1). Products within those tariff quotas can be imported at reduced or zero duty rates. For the same reasons it is necessary to open, with effect from 1 January 2012, new tariff quotas at a zero duty rate for an appropriate volume for the products with order numbers 09.2928 and 09.2929, by inserting those products in the list in the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 7/2010.
(2)
The quota volumes for autonomous tariff quotas with order numbers 09.2624 and 09.2640 are insufficient to meet the needs of the industry of the Union for the current quota period ending on 31 December 2011. Consequently, those quota volumes should be increased with effect from 1 July 2011.
(3)
The quota volumes for autonomous tariff quotas with order numbers 09.2603, 09.2629, 09.2632, 09.2816 and 09.2977 should be replaced by the volumes set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
(4)
It is no longer in the interest of the Union to continue to grant tariff quotas in 2012 for the products with order numbers 09.2815, 09.2841 and 09.2992, for which such quotas were established for 2011. Those quotas should therefore be closed with effect from 1 January 2012 and the corresponding products should be deleted from the list in the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 7/2010.
(5)
In view of the many changes to be made, the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 should be replaced in its entirety in the interest of clarity.
(6)
Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(7)
Since the tariff quotas have to take effect from 1 January 2012, this Regulation should apply from the same date and enter into force immediately,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The Annex to Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 is replaced by the text set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
With effect from 1 July 2011, in the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 7/2010:
-
the quota volume for the autonomous tariff quota with order number 09.2624 is fixed at 950 tonnes,
-
the quota volume for the autonomous tariff quota with order number 09.2640 is fixed at 11 000 tonnes.
Article 3
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 January 2012, except for Article 2 which shall apply from 1 July 2011.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
