COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) No 566/2010
of 29 June 2010
amending Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 temporarily suspending the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on certain industrial, agricultural and fishery 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)
It is in the interest of the Union to suspend totally the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on a number of new products not listed in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 (1).
(2)
The CN and TARIC codes 1518009910, 3907202091, 7410110010, 7410210060 and 9031908530 for four products which are currently listed in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 should be deleted because it is no longer in the interest of the Union to maintain the suspension of autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties for those products.
(3)
It is necessary to modify the description of twelve suspensions in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 in order to take account of technical product developments and economic trends on the market. Those suspensions should be deleted from the list in that Annex and reinserted as new suspensions using new descriptions. In the interest of clarity, those suspensions should be marked with an asterisk in the first column of Annex I and of Annex II to this Regulation.
(4)
Experience has shown that is is necessary to provide for an expiry date to the suspensions listed in Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 to ensure that account is taken of technological and economic changes. This should not exclude the premature termination of certain measures or their continuation beyond that period, if justified by economic reasons, in accordance with the principles laid down in the Commission communication of 1998 concerning autonomous tariff suspensions and quotas (2).
(5)
Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(6)
Since the suspensions laid down in this Regulation should take effect from 1 July 2010, this Regulation should apply from the same date and enter into force immediately,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 is hereby amended as follows:
1.
the rows for the products listed in Annex I to this Regulation are inserted;
2.
the rows for the products for which the CN and TARIC codes are set out in Annex II to this Regulation are deleted.
Article 2
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 July 2010.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
