of26January1999
laying down special detailed rules for the application of Council
Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 as regards export licences and export
refundsinthecaseofmilkandmilkproducts
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June
1968 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milkproducts (
1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1587/96 (2), and
in particular Articles 13(3), 16a(1) and 17(9) and (14) thereof,
1.Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1466/95 of 27 June1995 laying down special detailed rules of application for exportrefunds on milk and milk products (
3), as last amended by Regu-
lation (EC) No 2184/98(4), has been substantially amended
several times; whereas, since further amendments are to bemade, it should be recast in the interests of clarity and effi-ciency;
2.Whereas under the Agriculture Agreement concluded during theUruguay Round of the GATT trade negotiations (
5) (hereinafter
referred to as the ‘Agriculture Agreement’), export refunds onagricultural products, including milk products, are limited within
each12-monthperiod starting from 1 July 1995 to a maximum
quantity and a maximum value; whereas, in order to ensurecompliance with those limits, the issue of export licences shouldbe monitored; whereas procedures must also be adopted for allo-cating the quantities which may be exported with a refund;
3.Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 lays down general rulesfor granting of export refunds in the milk and milk productssector, in order, in particular, to permit the monitoring of the
value and quantity limits for refunds; whereas detailed rules for
the application of those arrangements should be laid down;
4.Whereas, by way of derogation from Commission Regulation(EEC) No 3665/87 of 27 November 1987 laying down commondetailed rules for the application of the system of export refundson agricultural products (
6), as last amended by Regulation (EC)
No 2334/98(7), cases where a refund may be granted without
presentation of an export licence should be defined and the
maximum time that products may remain under customs control
should be specified;
5.Whereas special provisions should be adopted for the milk andmilk products sector, in particular withregard to licences, byway of derogation from Commission Regulation (EEC) No3719/88 of 16 November 1988 laying down common detailedrules for the application of the system of import and exportlicences and advance fixing certificates for agricultural
products (
8), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1044/
98(9); whereas, in addition, the tolerance permitted by that
Regulation as regards the quantity of goods exported comparedwith the quantity indicated on the licence should be reducedand, in order to ensure effective controls on limits, there shouldbe no refunds paid on quantities exceeding what is indicated on1999R0174 — EN — 01.01.2004 — 022.001 — 2

the licence; whereas the securities to be lodged when licence
applications are submitted should be sufficient to prevent specu-lative applications;
6.Whereas the term of validity of export licences should be fixed;whereas that term should vary according to the products
concerned, with a shorter term for products where there is a
higher risk of speculation;
7.Whereas, in order to ensure accurate checking of products
exported and to minimise the risk of speculation, the possibility
of changing the product for which a licence has been issuedshould be restricted;
8.Whereas Article 2a(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3665/87 laysdown rules for the use of export licences with advance fixingof the refund for the exportation of products with a 12-digitcode other than that shown in Section 16 of the licence; whereasthis provision becomes applicable in a specific sector only if
product categories as referred to in Article 13a of Regulation
(EEC) No 3719/88 and product groups as referred to in point(b) of the first subparagraph of Article 2a(2) of Regulation(EEC) No 3665/87 have been defined;
9.Whereas for the milk and milk product sector, product categoriesare already defined withreference to th e categories provided forin the Agriculture Agreement; whereas in the interests of soundmanagement this use of categories should be retained and Article
2a(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3665/87 applied on the basis only
of defined product groups;
10.Whereas in the milk sector refund rates are highly differentiated,
notably according to fat content; whereas, so that this arrange-
ment will not be called into question while at the same time theproportionality objective of Article 2a(2) of Regulation (EEC)No 3665/87 is respected, the product groups should be narrowlydefined and for certain products the validity of export licencesshould extend to products that in fat content are immediately
adjacent in CN code to the product for which a refund has been
fixed in advance;
11.Whereas, to enable traders to participate in invitations to tenderopened by third countries without affecting the restrictions asregards volume, a system of provisional licences should be intro-duced giving successful tenderers the right to a full licence;
12.Whereas, in order to ensure effective monitoring of licencesissued, which depends on the notification of information to theCommission by the Member States, a waiting time should beprovided for before licences are issued; whereas, in order toensure the smooth operation of the arrangements and, in parti-
cular, an equitable allocation of the quantities available within
the limits laid down by the Agriculture Agreement, variousmanagement measures should be laid down and, in particular,provision should be made for the issue of licences to besuspended and for a reduction coefficient to be applied to the
quantities applied for;
13.Whereas the refund rate should be determined for products
eligible for export refunds in the context of food-aid operations;
14.Whereas, to ensure that licences are correctly used, for certainexports with refunds the country of destination should be definedas a compulsory destination as referred to in Article 21(1) of
Regulation (EEC) No 3665/87;
15.Whereas experience has shown that the number of applicationsfor export licences for particular cheese varies according to
destination; whereas, in order that special measures can beapplied according to the destination indicated on licence applica-tions, destination zones should be fixed and the destination zoneindicated on export licences made obligatory for products fallingwithin CN code 0406;1999R0174 — EN — 01.01.2004 — 022.001 — 3
▼B
16.Whereas the method for fixing the refund on milk products
containing added sugar, the price of which is determined by the
price of the ingredients, should be laid down according to thepercentage of the ingredients contained therein; whereas,however, to facilitate the management of refunds for theseproducts, and particularly measures to ensure compliance withcommitments regarding exports in the context of the Agriculture
Agreement, a maximum quantity should be fixed for sucrose
incorporated for which a refund may be granted; whereas 43 %by weight of whole product is representative of the sucrosecontent of suchproducts;
17.Whereas Article 8(3) of Regulation (EEC) No 3665/87 providesthat refunds may be granted for ingredients of Community originin processed cheese manufactured under the inward processing
arrangements; whereas certain special rules are needed to ensure
that this specific measure operates properly and can be effec-tively checked;
18.Whereas, under the Agreement concluded between the EuropeanCommunity and Canada approved by Council Decision 95/591/EC (
1) export licences issued by the European Community must
be presented for cheese qualifying for preferential terms on
import into Canada; whereas the detailed rules for issuing such
licences should be laid down; whereas, to ensure that the quanti-ties of cheese imported into Canada under the import quotacorrespond to the quantities for which licences have been issued,the licences duly stamped by the Canadian authorities should bereturned to the competent bodies of the Member States and the
data on exports should be forwarded by the Member States to
the Commission;
19.Whereas, in the framework of the consultations with Switzerlandon the implementation of the results of the Uruguay Round, ithas been agreed to apply a set of measures providing in parti-cular for a reduction in the customs duties on certainCommunity cheeses imported into Switzerland; whereas the
Community origin of suchproducts sh ould be guaranteed;
whereas, to that end, export licences should be compulsory forall cheese exported under these arrangements, including cheeseon which export refunds are not payable; whereas licencesshould be issued subject to presentation by the exporter of a
declaration certifying the Community origin of the product;
20.Whereas the Community has the option of designating whichimporters may import Community cheeses into the United States
under the additional quota arising from the Agriculture Agree-ment; whereas this would allow the Community to maximisethe value of the quota; whereas a procedure should therefore belaid down for designating importers on the basis of the allocation
of export licences for the products concerned;
21).Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are inaccordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for
Milk and Milk Products,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
