COUNCILREGULATION(EC)No2505/96
of20December 1996
opening and providing for the administration of autonomous
Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural and industrial
products
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and
in particular Article 28 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas production in the Community of certain agricultural and
industrial products will be insufficient to meet the specific requirementsof the user industries in the Community; whereas, consequently,Community supplies of products of this type will depend to aconsiderable extent on imports from third countries; whereas the most
urgent Community requirements for the products in question should be
met immediately on the most favourable terms; whereas Communitytariff quotas at reduced or zero duty should therefore be opened withinthe limits of appropriate volumes taking account of the need not todisturb the markets for such products nor the starting out or development
of Community production;
Whereas it is necessary, in particular, to ensure for all Community
importers equal and uninterrupted access to the said quotas and to ensurethe uninterrupted application of the rates laid down for the quotas to allimports of the products concerned into all Member States until thequotas have been used up;
Whereas the decision for the opening of autonomous tariff quotas should
be taken by the Community; whereas, to ensure the efficiency of acommon administration of these quotas, there is no reasonable obstacleto authorizing the Member States to draw from the quota-volumes thenecessary quantities corresponding to actual imports; whereas, however,
this method of administration requires close cooperation between the
Member States and the Commission and the latter must in particular beable to monitor the rate at which the quotas are used up and inform theMember States accordingly;
Whereas production in the Community of certain industrial products will
remain, in the course of 1996, unable to meet the specific requirements
of the user industries in the Community; whereas, consequently,
Community supplies of products of this type will depend to aconsiderable extent on imports from third countries; whereas the mosturgent Community requirements for the products in question should bemet immediately on the most favourable terms;
Whereas, by Regulation (EC) No 3059/95 (
1), the Council opened, for
1996, Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural and industrialproducts; whereas the volume of the quota for ferro-chromium (OrderNo 09.2711), for isopropylidene-bis (Order No 09.2859) and foroscillator (Order No 09.2939) should be increased;
Whereas the existing regulations opening autonomous Common
Customs Tariff duties on certain industrial and agricultural products
have largely renewed previous measures; whereas, therefore, in theinterests of rationalizing implementation of the measures concerned, itwould seem appropriate not to limit the period of validity of thisRegulation as its scope can be adapted and products added to or
removed from the list through a Council regulation, if necessary;
whereas the transfer of unused quantities from one quota period to asubsequent one is not permissible;1996R2505 — EN — 01.07.1998 — 004.001 — 2

Whereas the amendments to the combined nomenclature and the Taric
codes do not give rise to any substantive amendment; whereas, forreasons of simplification, provision should be made to empower the
Commission, following receipt of the opinion of the Customs Code
Committee, to make the necessary amendments and technical adapta-tions of the Annex to this Regulation, including the publication of aconsolidated version;
Whereas it should be possible for this procedure to be applied in order to
speed up the procedure where it becomes clear during a calendar year
that an increase of a tariff quota or extension of a quota period isrequired; whereas such measures shall be considered to be temporaryones pending expiry of the relevant calendar year,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
1. The import duties on the goods listed in Annex I shall be
suspended at the indicated duty rate for the periods and in the amounts
indicated therein.
2. In Regulation (EC) No 3059/95, the table shown in the Annex shall
be replaced, for Order Nos 09.2711, 09.2859 and 09.2939, by the tableshown in Annex II to this Regulation.
Article 2
The tariff quotas referred to in Article 1 shall be managed by the
Commission, which may take all appropriate administrative measures inorder to ensure effective administration thereof.
Article 3
If an importer presents in a Member State an entry for release for free
circulation, including a request for preferential benefit for a productcovered by this Regulation and if this entry for release is accepted by the
customs authorities, the Member States concerned shall inform the
Commission and draw an amount corresponding to its requirementsfrom the corresponding quota amount.
The drawing request, with indication of the date of acceptance of the
said entries, must be transmitted to the Commission without delay.
The drawings are granted by the Commission by reference to the date of
acceptance of the entries for release for free circulation by the customsauthorities of the Member States concerned to the extent that theavailable balance so permits.
If a Member State does not use the quantities drawn it shall return them
as soon as possible to the corresponding quota amount.
If the quantities requested are greater than the available balance of the
quota amount, allocation shall be made on a pro rata basis with respectto the requests. Member States shall be informed by the Commission ofthe drawings made.
Article 4
Each Member State shall ensure that importers of the products
concerned have equal and uninterrupted access to the quotas for such
time as the residual balance of the quota volumes so permits.
Article 5
The Member States and the Commission shall cooperate closely to
ensure that this Regulation is complied with.
Article 6
The amendments and technical adaptations, including the publication of
a consolidated version, arising from amendments of the combined1996R2505 — EN — 01.07.1998 — 004.001 — 3
▼B
nomenclature and Taric codes shall be adopted by the Commission in
accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 7.
If it becomes apparent during a calendar year:
— a quota quantity is not sufficient to satisfy the needs of the
Community industry, taking into account the production capacityinside the Community, or
— a prolongation of a tariff quota whose validity period has been
limited is necessary beyond this period to satisfy the needs of theCommunity industry, taking into account the production capacityinside the Community,
the quota concerned may, until the end of the calendar year, be increased
by not more than 50 % or the quota period extended for a period not
exceeding six months in accordance with the procedure laid down inArticle 7.
Article 7
1. The Commission shall be assisted by the Customs Code
Committee set up by Article 247 of Council Regulation (EEC) No2913/92 (
1).
2. The representative of the Commission shall submit to the
Committee a draft of the measures to be adopted. The Committee shall
deliver its opinion on the draft within a time limit which the chairman
may lay down according to the urgency of the matter. The opinion shallbe delivered by the majority laid down in Article 148 (2) of the Treaty inthe case of decisions which the Council is required to adopt on aproposal from the Commission. The votes of the representatives of theMember States within the Committee shall be weighted in the manner
set out in that Article. The chairman shall not vote.
The Commission shall adopt measures, which shall apply immediately.
However, if those measures are not in accordance with the opinion of theCommittee, they shall be communicated by the Commission to theCouncil forthwith. In that event the Commission shall defer applicationof the measures upon which it has decided for three months from the
date of such communication.
The Council, acting by qualified majority, may take a different decision
within the time limit referred to in the previous paragraph.
3. The Committee may examine any question concerning the
application of this Regulation which is raised by its chairman, eitheron his own initiative or at the request of a Member State.
Article 8
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its
publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities .
It shall apply from 1 January 1997 with respect to Annex I and from 1
January 1996 with respect to Annex II.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in
all Member States.1996R2505 — EN — 01.07.1998 — 004.001 — 4
