DECISION No 1272/75/ECSC OF THE COMMISSION of 16 May 1975 on the obligation of undertakings in the steel industry to supply certain information concerning steel production

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community, and in particular Article 47 thereof;

Whereas the current market situation for steel products shows a large oversupply relative to actual demand;

Whereas, therefore, it is essential to revise the forecast trends drawn up by the Commission in order that steel undertakings may be provided with better guidance in adjusting their production to actual demand ; whereas to accomplish this task the Commission must have to hand estimated or planned production figures ; whereas figures for actual production must be forwarded to the Commission more rapidly;

Whereas in the present situation these figures may be limited to crude steel production;

Whereas, consequently, as long as the situation makes it necessary, steel undertakings have to be required to supply information on their estimated or planned monthly production of crude steel;

Whereas the Commission must be in a position to trace precisely and rapidly the trend of the undertakings' actual production ; whereas therefore, apart from the statistical information already received, up-to-the-minute figures for monthly crude steel production must be promptly supplied to the Commission;

Whereas those undertakings whose volume of production exempts them from payment of the levy may also be exempted from the requirements of this Decision,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

Undertakings producing crude steel shall be required to supply to the Commission each month their planned or estimated production and their actual production of crude steel in the following forms: - ingots,

- continuous castings,

- liquid steel for casting.

Article 2

Statements of planned or estimated production for each month must reach the Commission by, at the latest, the twenty-fifth of the previous month. The first statement covering July 1975, shall be sent in by, at the latest, 25 June 1975.

Statements shall be made on a standard form, a specimen of which is given in Annex 1 to this Decision.

Article 3

Statements of actual production for each month must reach the Commission by, at the latest, the fifth of the following month. The first statement, covering production during June 1975, shall be sent in by, at the latest, 5 July 1975.

Statements shall be made on a standard form, a specimen of which is given in Annex 2 to this Decision.

Article 4

Undertakings which, by virtue of Decisions No 2/52 of 23 December 1952 and No 6/65 of 17 March 1965, arc exempt from payment of the levy, shall be exempt from the requirements of Article 1 of this Decision.

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

DECISION 2289/84/ECSC

of 1 August 1984

amending Decision No 234/84/ECSC on the extension of the system of monitoring and production quotas for certain products of undertakings in the steel industry

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community, and in particular Article 47 and 58 thereof,

WHEREAS:

The economy of Ireland is becoming more industrialized and it is the policy of the Irish Government to stimulate and encourage investment in industrial projects and the establishment of new industries in Ireland. Such a development brings with it growing demand both for constructional steel products and for the steel products required by the developing industrial sector.

Traditionally, Ireland has produced only a small part of its steel requirements, and has imported the bulk of its needs. The restructuring of the Irish steel industry in the last few years, which was approved by the Commission as being in conformity with its general objectives for steel, has provided greater capacity to meet part of Ireland's needs, especially for certain constructional steels, and thus plays an important part in the development of the economy. Furthermore, the steel industry itself, supplying other markets in the Community and in non-member countries, is an integral part of this economic evolution.

For these reasons, it is necessary that, in times of very low demand, the Commission should ensure that the Irish steel industry is not placed, by quota restrictions, in a position where the mutual objectives of the development of the Irish steel industry and the development of the economy of Ireland are impeded. Commission Decision No 234/84/ECSC (1), as amended by Decision No 2105/84/ECSC (2), should therefore be amended accordingly. After consulting the Consultative Committee and with the assent of the Council,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

Article 1 of Decision No 234/84/ECSC is hereby amended as follows:

1. 'or in Ireland' is inserted after 'Greece'.

2. 'reference production figures' is replaced by 'quotas and/or parts of quotas that may be delivered in the common market'.

3. The following is added at the end: 'providing that the undertaking in question has not been the subject of penalties in respect of the price rules or has paid fines due.'

Article 2

This Decision shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

It shall apply with effect from 1 July 1984.

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

COMMISSION DECISION No 1718/85/ECSC

of 21 June 1985

repealing the definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of broad-flanged beams originating in Spain

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community,

Having regard to Commission Decision No 2177/84/ECSC of 27 July 1984 on protection against dumped or subsidized imports from countries not members of the European Coal and Steel Community (1), and in particular Articles 7 and 14 thereof,

After consultations within the Advisory Committee as provided for by the abovementioned Decision,

Whereas,

A. Definitive duty

(1) By recommendation No 259/83/ECSC (2) the Commission imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of broad-flanged beams falling within subheading ex 73.11 A I of the Common Customs Tariff, corresponding to NIMEXE code 73.11-12, originating in Spain.

(2) By Decision No 1064/83/ECSC (3) the Commission suspended the application of the abovementioned definitive duty following an arrangement concluded between the Community and Spain with respect to trade in steel products including broad-flanged beams.

B. Review

(3) Following the recent renewal of the abovementioned arrangement the Commission has reviewed the necessity of maintaining the suspended definitive anti-dumping duty.

C. Repeal of definitive anti-dumping duty

(4) The Commission considers that in view of the satisfactory functioning of the arrangement referred to in paragraph 2 and its recent renewal it appears unlikely that dumping and injury will reoccur and that therefore the suspended anti-dumping duty is no longer required to protect the Community interest. Consequently recommendation No 259/83/ECSC should be repealed,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

Recommendation No 259/83/ECSC is hereby repealed.

Article 2

This Decision shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

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

of 6 February 1985

fixing the amended rates of abatement for the first quarter of 1985 in accordance with Decision No 234/84/ECSC on the extension of the system of monitoring and production quotas for certain products of undertakings in the steel industry

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community,

Having regard to Commission Decision No 234/84/ECSC of 31 January 1984 on the extension of the system of monitoring and production quotas for certain products of undertakings in the steel industry (1),

Whereas rates of abatement in respect of certain products were fixed for the first quarter of 1985 by Commission Decision No 3265/84/ECSC (2);

Whereas Article 9 (1) of Decision No 234/84/ECSC provides that such rates of abatement may be modified, not later than the first week of the second month of the quarter in question, in the light of the development of the market situation;

Whereas the market situation requires that the rates of abatement for the first quarter of 1985 be so modified on the studies carried out with undertakings and associations of undertakings,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

1. The rates of abatement for the establishment of production quotas for the first quarter of 1985 established in Decision No 3265/84/ECSC for the following categories of products shall be modified as follows:

'category 1a: 43

category 1b: 36

category 1c: 15'

2. The rate of abatement for the establishment of the part of the production quota which may be delivered in the common market established in Decision No 3265/84/ECSC for the following category of product shall be modified as follows:

'category III: 57'

3. These rates of abatement replace the corresponding rates fixed in Decision No 3265/84/ECSC.

Article 2

This Decision shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

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

COMMISSION DECISION No 3612/85/ECSC

of 20 December 1985

amending Decision 73/287/ECSC concerning coal and coke for the iron and steel industry in the Community

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community, and in particular the first paragraph of Article 95 thereof,

Having regard to the opinion of the Consultative Committee,

Having regard to the assent of the Council,

Whereas Commission Decision 73/287/ECSC (1) was last amended by Decision No 759/84/ECSC (2) and was extended by that Decision for three years (1984 to 1986);

Whereas the second paragraph of Article 1 of Decision No 759/84/ECSC provides that the maximum tonnage for 1986 covered by the Community financing arrangements for aids relating to intra-Community trade will be revised downwards before the end of 1985;

Whereas a maximum tonnage of 8,5 million tonnes appears to be sufficient in view of the foreseeable volume of intra-Community trade in 1986 and of the decreasing character of the scale of aids;

Whereas the Treaty does not provide the powers necessary to establish this system,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

Decision 73/287/ECSC is hereby amended as follows:

Paragraph 1 of Article 7 is replaced by the following:

'1. The Community financing arrangements shall cover a quantity of coal amounting to no more than 8,5 million tonnes and an amount of no more than 36 million ECU for the year 1986.'

Article 2

This Decision shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

Article 1

The basic duties which shall be successively reduced by the ten-member Community as provided for in Article 31 of the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal shall be the duties actually applied on 1 January 1986 to products covered by the ECSC Treaty and originating in Spain.
