COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES 
Brussels, 20.11.1996 
COM(96) 578 final 
Proposal for a 
COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) 
amending the Annex to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 temporarily suspending 
the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on certain 
industrial and agricultural products 
(presented by the Commission) 

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 
1. During the third quarter of this year, the Commission, assisted by the Economic Tariff Problems 
Group, has reviewed requests for temporary suspension of autonomous Common Customs Tariff 
duties presented to it by the Member States, including certain requests amending existing suspensions. 
2. The attached proposal concerns certain industrial and agricultural products. 
3. The requests for suspension relating to the above products were examined in the light of the criteria set 
out in the communication from the Commission to the Council and the Member States concerning 
autonomous tariff suspensions (see OJ C 235, 13.9.1989, p. 2). 
Following this review, the Commission considers that the suspension or reduction of duties is justified 
for the products listed in Annex I to the attached proposal of Regulation. 
It also considers that for products listed in Annex II to this proposal of Regulation, maintenance of 
suspension is no longer justified in the light of the Community's economic interests. 
This Regulation has two Annexes corresponding, respectively, to the list of products for which 
suspension is proposed, or for which the wording (including the nomenclature code) has to be changed, 
and the list of products removed from the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96. 
Amendments to the description of certain products listed in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96, 
where they have become necessary, have been taken into account as follows: 
- addition to the nomenclature code for the product (listed in the Annex to Regulation 
(EC) No 1255/96) in Annex II, 
- addition of the new amended product description in Annex I. 
4. The period of validity of the proposed measure is unspecified, since its purpose is to amend the Annex 
to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/96. the period of validity of which is itself unspecified

Proposal for a 
COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No /96 
amending the Annex to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 temporarily suspending the autonomous 
Common Customs Tariff duties on certain industrial and 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, 
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 temporarily suspending the autonomous Common 
Customs Tariff duties on certain industrial and agricultural products,1 
Whereas it is in the interest of the Community to suspend partially or totally the autonomous Common 
Customs Tariff duties for a number of new products not listed in the Annex to Regulation 
(EC) No 1255/96, 
Whereas the products referred to in that Regulation, for which it is no longer in the Community's interest to 
maintain suspension of autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties or for which it is necessary to amend 
the description in the light of technical developments, must be withdrawn from the list in the Annex thereto, 
Whereas, for the sake of clarity, it is therefore advisable to regard the products for which amendments to the 
description are required as new products, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
Article J 
The products set out in Annex I to this Regulation are hereby added to the Annex to Regulation 
(EC) No 1255/96. The autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on these products are hereby 
suspended at the rate indicated for each product. 
Article 2 
The products for which the codes are set out in Annex II to this Regulation are hereby removed from the 
Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96. 
Article 3 
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 1997. 
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT 
1. Budget heading involved : Chapter 12 Article 120 
2. Title of operation : Proposal for a Council Regulation amending the Annex to Council Regulation (EC) 
No 1255/96 temporarily suspending the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on certain 
industrial and agricultural products. 
3. Legal basis : Article 28 of the EC Treaty. 
4. Objective: Suspension of the CCT duties for the above products. 
5. Measures aimed at prevention and protection: Checks on the end-use of some of the products covered 
by this Council Regulation will be carried out in accordance with Articles 291 to 304 of Commission 
Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 laying down provisions for the implementation of the Community 
Customs Code. 
6. Cost : 
In order to reduce the economic problems linked with the period of validity of previous Regulations, 
Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/96,l at present in force, does not have a date marking the end of its 
period of validity. 
This proposal of Council Regulation contains only the amendments which must be made to the Annex 
to the existing Regulation in order to take account of the following: 
1. new requests for suspension which have been presented and accepted; 
2. technical developments in products or economic trends on the market, resulting in the lifting 
of certain existing suspensions; 
3. amendments to nomenclature codes. 
Almost all these amendments take the form of two Annexes which contain, respectively, the list of new 
products, or products the description of which has been amended, and the list of products removed 
from the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96. 
Obviously, only the first two amendments have a financial impact. 
Annex I (addition): 
This Annex, in addition to the amendments resulting from a change in CN code, contains 96 new 
products. The corresponding suspensions give rise to an amount of duties not collected, calculated on 
the basis of the expected imports into the requesting Member State for 1996, of ECU 13.60 million. 
On the basis of the existing statistics for the preceding years, it appears, however, that this amount 
must be increased by an average factor which may be estimated at 1.8, to take account of imports into 
other Member States using the same suspensions. This means a loss of revenue of some 
ECU 24 million. 
1 OJL158, 29 June 1996, p. 1. 
Annex II (removal): 
This Annex provides for the removal of 29 products corresponding in 1994 (most recent statistics 
available) to uncollected duties of ECU 7.6 million, determined for a Community of 12. In view of the 
suspensions granted to the three states which joined the Community in 1995, this total must be 
increased by about 9%, i.e. additional revenue of some ECU 8.25 million. 
Estimated cost of the present operation 
For the coming year, the duty not collected as a result of from this Regulation may therefore, in the 
light of the approximate calculations made, be estimated at about ECU 16 million. 
Comments: 
Taking account of the regulation currently in force (No 1255/96), for which the duty not collected for 
the same year was estimated at 65 MECU2, the increase in the amount of duty not collected in 1997 
should therefore amount to about 81 MECU.
