COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1501/94 of 27 June 1994 temporarily suspending the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on a number of agricultural 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 the products specified in this Regulation is currently inadequate or non-existent; whereas producers thus cannot meet the needs of user industries in the Community;

Whereas in these cases, it is in the interest of the Community to suspend the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties totally;

Whereas the decision for the suspension of these autonomous duties should be taken by the Community;

Whereas, in view of the difficulty of assessing accurately short-term trends in the economic situation in the relevant sectors, suspension measures should be taken only temporarily by fixing their period of validity by reference to the interests of Community production,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties for the products listed in the table appearing in the Annex shall be suspended at the level indicated in respect of each of them.

These suspensions shall apply from 1 July 1994 to 30 June 1995.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 July 1994.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Luxembourg, 27 June 1994.

For the Council

The President

C. SIMITIS
