COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 2245/92  of 27 July 1992  establishing Community statistical surveillance for certain agricultural products originating in Cyprus, Egypt, Jordan, Israel, Tunisia, Syria, Malta, Morocco and Lebanon which are subject to  reference quantities (1992)THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 113,  Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,  Whereas the Additional Protocols to the Cooperation Agreements between the European Economic Community, of the one part, and Cyprus (1), Egypt (2), Jordan (3), Israel (4), Tunisia (5), Syria (6), Malta (7), Morocco (8) and Lebanon (9), of the other,  have been concluded; whereas these Protocols provide for the progressive reduction, subject to reference quantities and to a Community surveillance within a set timetable, of the customs duties applicable to certain agricultural products originating in  those countries and covered by the respective Agreements;  Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 451/89 of 20 February 1989 concerning the procedure to be applied to certain agricultural products originating in various Mediterranean third countries (10) determined the surveillance procedure in question;  Whereas, by Council Regulation (EEC) No 1764/92 of 29 June 1992 amending the arrangements for the import into the Community of certain agricultural products originating in Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Malta, Morocco, Syria and  Tunisia (11), the Community unilaterally increased the amount of these reference quantities in equal steps of 3 % or 5 % per year starting on 1 January 1992 and whereas for 1992 they have thus reached the levels shown in the Annex;  Whereas, in order to enable the competent departments of the Commission to establish an annual trade balance sheet for each of the products concerned and, if necessary, to put into application the arrangement provided for in Article 3 (1) of Regulation  (EEC) No 451/89, these products are subject to a statistical surveillance;  Whereas imports of the products in question are charged against the reference quantities at Community level within pre-established timetables, as and when the products are entered with the customs authorities for free circulation; whereas, therefore, it  is appropriate to establish, in 1992, reference quantities for the products listed in the Annex,  HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:  Article 1  1.

Where the movement certificate is produced at a later date, the amount shall be charged against the corresponding reference quantity at the date of acceptance of the declaration of release for free circulation.  The extent to which the reference quantities are used up shall be determined at Community level on the basis of the imports charged against them in the manner defined in the first subparagraph, as communicated to the Statistical Office of the European  Communities pursuant to Regulations (EEC) No 2658/87 (12) and (EEC) No 1736/75 (13).
