fJ I 94/0274 (ACC) 
Proposal for a 
COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) 
opening and providing for the administration of quotas 
for certain processed agricultural products originating 
in Hungary 
(presented by the Commission) 
EXPLANATORY MEMORANDU I 
1. The European Agreement between the European Communities and their Member 
States, of the one part, and the Republic of Hungary, of the other part, contains 
tariff and other concessions subject to quantitative limits in the form of quota 
ceilings listed inter alia in Protocol 3 to the Agreement. 
2. The measures established in Protocol 3 concerning trade between Hungary and the 
Community in certain processed agricultural products not covered by Annex II of 
the EEC Treaty for 1993 were applied by Council Regulation (EEC) No 3918/92 
opening and providing for the administration of Community tariff quotas and 
ceilings for certain agricultural and industrial products and establishing a reduced 
variable component for certain processed agricultural products originating in 
Hungary, Poland, and the territory of the former Czech and Slovak Federal 
Republic (CSFR), as amended by Council Regulation (EEC) No 2232/93. 
3. This amendment extended application of Council Regulation (EEC) NO 3918/92 
until 31 December 1994 for certain products; consequently, arrangements must be 
made for a regulation opening and providing for the administration of the planned 
concessions as of 1 January 1995. 
Proposal for a 
COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) 
opening and providing for the administration of quotas' 
for certain processed agricultural products originating in Hungary 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular 
Article 113 thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Whereas the European Agreement between the European Communities and their Member 
States, of the one part, and the Republic of Hungary, of the other part, came into force 
on 1 February 1994; 
Whereas Council Regulation (EC) No 3448/93 of 6 December 1993 laying down the trade 
arrangements applicable to certain goods resulting from the processing of agricultural 
products replaced the designation "variable components" by "agricultural components"; 
and whereas Article 7(2) of Regulation (EC) No 3448/93 establishes the procedure for 
adopting the detailed rules for determining and managing reductions in the agricultural 
component of the charge where provided for by a preferential agreement; 
Whereas Protocol 3 to the European Agreement provides for reductions in the duties, and 
in particular the fixed component of the charge, applied to goods listed in Table 1 of 
Annex II to the said Protocol within the limits of quotas established in Table 1 of Annex I 
to this Protocol; whereas it is necessary to specify the fixed components and the rules for 
managing the quotas concerned which are to apply as of 1995; 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION 
Article 1 
As of 1 January 1995 goods originating in Hungary which are listed in the Annex 
to this Regulation shall be subject to tariff reductions within the limits of the tariff 
quotas and under the conditions set out in this Annex. 
For the purposes of this Regulation, "originating goods" means goods meeting the 
conditions established by Protocol 4 to the European Agreement.

Article 2 
1. The tariff quotas referred to in Article 1 shall be administered by the Commission, 
which may take all appropriate measures in order to ensure efficient administration 
thereof.

circulation in a Member State and applies to take advantage of the preferential 
arrangements, and that declaration is accepted by the customs authorities, the 
Member State concerned shall, by notifying the Commission, draw an amount 
corresponding to its requirements from the quota volume. 
Requests for drawings, indicating the date of acceptance of the said declarations, 
must be sent to the Commission without delay. 
The drawings shall be granted by the Commission by reference to the date of 
acceptance of the declaration for free circulation by the customs authorities of the 
Member State concerned, to the extent that the available balance so permits. 
3. If a Member State does not use the quantities drawn, it shall return them to the 
corresponding quota volume as soon as possible. 
4. If the quantities requested are greater than the available balance of the quota 
volume, the balance shall be allocated on a, pro rate basis. The Commission shall 
inform the Member States of the drawings made.
