(presented by the Commission) 
EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 
1. Following multilateral negotiations In GATT the Community undertook to 
open annual tariff quotas for determined volumes of beef sector products. 
2. These quotas are: 
(a) 53,000 tonnes (boned volume) of frozen beef at 20% duty; 
(b) 34,300 tonnes (product weight) of high quality fresh, chilled or 
frozen beef at 20% duty; 
(c) 2,250 tonnes (boned volume) of frozen buffalo meat at 20X duty-, 
(d) 1,500 tonnes of frozen thin beef skirt at 4% duty. 
3. To meet the Community's obligations provisions opening, allocating and 
providing for the administration of these quotas for 1990 and subsequent 
years must be adopted by regulation before 1 January 1990. 
4. in the case of the frozen beef quota the Commission proposes to adjust 
the allocation and administration rules applied in past years in order to 
permit Community management In line with operators' requirements and the 
outlook In the sector for the next few years. 
5. It should be noted that frozen beef Is Imported Into the Community 
almost exclusively under special arrangements (GATT quotas, ACP preference, 
special arrangements for beef for processing etc.). All of these quotas 
will henceforth be allocated by tendering procedure. However, In order to 
ensure a smooth changeover for the GATT frozen beef quota from the national 
management approach so far adopted to Community management a substantial 
part of the quota will be allocated to operators who have Imported frozen 
meat under It in the last three years. These allocations will be in 
proportion to actual Imports made. 
6. Other detailed provisions required for the administration of these 
quotas, in particular the administrât Ivë mechanism for monitoring Import 
volumes, will be adopted by the management committee procedure.

Proposal for a 
COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) 
opening and providing for the administration of a Community tariff 
quota for frozen beef and veal covered by 
CN code 0202 and products covered by CN code 0206 29 91 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, 
and in particular Article 113 thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Whereas, for frozen beef and veal covered by CN code 0202 and products 
covered by CN code 0206 29 91, the Community has undertaken, within the 
framework of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), to open an 
annual Community tariff quota at a rate of duty of 20%, the quantity of 
which, expressed in weight of boned or boneless meat, has been fixed at 
53 000 tonnes; whereas that quota should accordingly be opened for 1990 and 
subsequent years; 
Whereas there should be a guarantee of access by all interested traders within 
the Community to the quota and of uninterrupted application of the rate laid 
down for that quota to all imports of the products in question unti I the quota is exhausted; 
Whereas there should be a harmonious transition between the nationally-
managed system applied in previous years and the Community-managed system 
applicable from this year onwards; whereas, to that end, a system for 
allocation by the Commission of the quantities available to the traditional 
operators on the one hand and to operators involved in trade in beef and veal on the 
other hand would give the latter progressive access to the benefits of the 
system in question; whereas, in order to ensure their activities are 
genuine, only quantities large enough to be representative of Community 
trade should be considered; 
- 2 -
Whereas, in defining traditional operators, account should be taken of the 
situation In Portugal where the quota in question has been applicable only 
since 1988; 
Whereas, In order to ensure the quota is fully utilized, it is necessary to 
set a time limit for lodging import licence applications and to allow the 
transfer of any quantities that have not been applied for at that date 
during the last quarter of the current year, and their allocation to 
operators on the basis of the quantities remaining rather than the original 
a I location cr iter la-, 
Whereas the detailed rules for the application for this Regulation should 
be drawn up in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 27 of Council 
Regulation (EEC) No. 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of 
the market In beef and veald), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) 
No. 571/89(2), 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
Article 1 
1. A Community tariff quota for frozen beef and veal covered by CN 
code 0202 and products covered by CN code 0206 29 91, totalling 
53 000 tonnes expressed in weight of boned or boneless meat, is hereby 
opened for 1990 and subsequent years. 
For the purposes of attribution of the quota in question, 100 kilograms of 
bone-in meat shall be equivalent to 77 kilograms of boned or boneless meat 
2. For the purposes of this Regulation, meat which is presented frozen at 
the time of acceptance of the import declaration shall be deemed frozen 
meat. 
3. The Common Customs Tariff duty applicable to the quota shall be 20%.

Article 2 
The quota of 53 000 tonnes shall be divided into two parts as follows: 
(a) the first, equal to 90% or 47 700 tonnes, shall be reserved for 
Importers who can prove they have imported frozen meat covered by CN 
code 0202 or products covered by CN code 0206 29 91 to which these 
import arrangements apply during the last three years; however, for 
1990, that period shall be reduced to the last two years for 
operators having imported such meat or products into Portugal; 
(b) the second, equal to 10% or 5 300 tonnes, shall be reserved for 
operators who can prove that they engage in trade, involving a 
minimum quantity to be determined, with third countries in beef and 
veal other than that to which these import arrangements apply and 
excluding meat which is the subject of inward or outward processing 
traffic. 
Article 3 
1. Quantities which have not been covered by an import licence application 
at 31 August in any year shall be the subject of a further allocation 
during the fourth quarter of that year, without account necessarily being 
taken of the allocation referred to in Article 2 above. 
2. The Member States shall notify the Commission, before 16 September each 
year, of quantities not applied for at 31 August of that year.

Article 4 
Detailed rules for the application of this Regulation shall be adopted in 
accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 27 of Regulation (EEC) 
No. 805/68, and in particular rules on: 
(a) the apportionment and allocation of quantities available between the 
operators referred to in Article 2; and 
(b) the conditions governing the Issue and the term of validity of 
import Iicences. 
Article 5 
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of Its publication in the 
Official Journal of the European Communities. 
It shall apply from 1 January 1990.
