Proposal  for  a 

COUNCIL  REGULATION  ŒC) 

opening and providing for the administration of Community tariff quota for certain agricultural and 
industrial products 

(presented  by  the  Commission) 

EXPLANATORY  MEMORANDUM 

Subsequent  to  requests  made  by various  Member  States,  the  Services  of  the  Commission 
have  examined,  in  conjunction  with  the  Government  experts  concerned,  the  question  of 
opening tariff quotas for certain products. 

Following this examination, which took place during the  "Economic Tariff Questions" group 
meetings, it has been determined that the increase of tariff  quotas for this product  could have 
the Agreement of the Member States without disturbing the markets for  such products. 

like  tariff  suspensions,  in  order  to  rationalize  and  simplify 

In  the  light  of consul  dons  with  the  Member  States  it  is proposed  that  these  measures  be 
valid  indefinitely, 
their 
implementation  and  ensure  that  legislation  is required  only  in the  event  of  changes  to  tariff 
quotas.  It  is  further  proposed  that  the  Commission  be  authorized  to  make  amendments  or 
technical  adaptations  to  the  measures  in  the  proposed  Regulation  using  the  committee 
procedure. It is proposed  that this procedure  also be used  should  it be necessary to  increase 
or add quotas or to extend the quota period

Proposal for a 
COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No ...796 
of 

opening and providing for the administration of Community tariff quota for certain 
agricultural and industrial 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, 

Whereas  production  in  the  Community  of  certain  agricultural  and  industrial  products  will  be 
insufficient  to  meet  the  specific  requirements  of  the  user  industries  in  the  Community;  whereas, 
consequently,  Community  supplies  of products  of this  type  will depend  to  a  considerable  extent  on 
imports  from  third  countries; whereas  the  most  urgent  Community  requirements  for  the  products  in 
question  should  be  met  immediately  on the most  favourable  terms; whereas  Community  tariff  quotas 
at  reduced  or  zero  duty  should  therefore  be  opened  within  the  limits  of  appropriate  volumes  taking 
account  of the need  not  to  disturb  the markets for  such products  nor the  starting  out  or  development 
of Community  production; 

Whereas it is necessary, in particular, to ensure for all Community importers equal and uninterrupted access to 
the said quotas and to ensure the uninterrupted application of the rates laid down for the quotas to all imports 
of the products concerned into all Member States until the quotas have been used up; 

Whereas  the  decision  for  the  opening  of  autonomous  tariff  quotas  should  be  taken  by  the  Community; 
whereas, to ensure the efficiency  of a common administration  of these quotas, there is no reasonable  obstacle 
to authorising the Member  States to draw from the quota-volumes the necessary  quantities  corresponding  to 
actual  imports;  whereas,  however,  this  method  of  administration  requires  close  cooperation  between  the 
Member  States and the Commission and the latter must  in particular be able to monitor the rate at which the 
quotas are used up and inform the Member States accordingly; 

Whereas  the  existing  regulations  opening  autonomous  Common  Customs  Tariff  duties  on  certain 
industrial  and  agricultural  products  have  largely  renewed  previous  measures;  whereas,  therefore,  in 
the  interests  of  rationalizing  implementation  of  the  measures  concerned,  it  would  seem  appropriate 
not to  limit the period  of validity  of this regulation  as its scope can be adapted  and  products  added  to 
or  removed  from  the  list  through  a  Council  Regulation,  if  necessary;  and  whereas  the  transfer  of 
unexhausted  quantities  from  one quota period to  a subsequent  one is not  permissible. 

I 

Whereas  the amendments  to  the  combined  nomenclature  and  the  Taric  codes  do  not  give  rise to  any 
substantive  amendment;  whereas,  for  reasons  of  simplification,  provision  should  be  made  to 
empower  the  Commission, 
following  receipt  of  the  opinion  of  the  Customs  Code  Committee,  to 
make  the necessary  amendments  and  technical  adaptations  of the  annex  to  this  Regulation,  including 
the publication  of a consolidated  version; 

and whereas it should  be possible for  this procedure  to be  applied  in order  to  speed  up the  procedure 
where  it  becomes  clear  during  a  calendar  year  that  an  increase  of  a  tariff  quota  or  extension  of  a 
quota  period  is  required;  and  whereas  such  measures  shall  be  considered  to  be  temporary  ones 
pending  expiry  of the relevant  calendar  year, 

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 

N 

Article 1 

The  import  duties  on  the  goods  listed  in the  Annex  shall  be  suspended  at  the  indicated  duty  rate  for 
the periods and  in the amounts  indicated  therein. 

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

Article 2 

Article 3 

If  an  importer  presents  in a  Member  State  an  entry  for  release  for  free  circulation,  including  a  request  for 
preferential  benefit  for  a product  covered  by this  Regulation  and  if this  entry  for  release  is  accepted  by the 
customs  authorities,  the  Member  States  concerned  shall  inform  the  Commission  and  draw  an  amount 
corresponding to its requirements from the corresponding quota amount. 

The drawing request, with indication of the date of acceptance of the said entries, must be transmitted to the 
Commission without delay. 

The drawings are granted by the Commission by reference to the date of acceptance of the entries for release 
for free circulation by the customs authorities of the Member States concerned to the extent that the available 
balance so permits. 

If a Member State does not use the quantities drawn it shall return them as soon as possible to the 
corresponding quota amount. 

If the quantities requested are greater than the available balance of the quota amount, allocation shall be made 
on a. pro  rata basis with respect to the requests. Member States shall be informed by the Commission of the 
drawings made. 

M 

Each Member State shall ensure  that importers of the products concerned have equal and uninterrupted access 
to the quotas for such time as the residual balance of the quota volumes so permits. 

Article 4 

The Member States and the Commission shall cooperate closely to ensure that mis Regulation is complied 
with. 

Articles 5 

Article 6 

The  amendments  and  technical  adaptations,  including  the  publication  of  a  consolidated  version, 
arising  from  amendments  of  the  combined  nomenclature  and  Taric  codes  shall  be  adopted  by  the 
Commission in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 7. 

If it becomes apparent  during a calendar  year 

-  a  quota  quantity  is  not  sufficient  to  satisfy  the  needs  of  the  Community  industry,  taking 

into account  the production capacity inside the Community  or, 

-  a prolongation  of a tariff  quota whose validity  period has been limited  is necessary  beyond 
this  period  to  satisfy  the  needs  of  the  Community  industry,  taking  into  account  the 
production  capacity  inside the  Community, 

the  quota  concerned  may,  until  the  end  of  the  calendar  year,  be  increased  or  the  quota  period 
extended  in accordance with the procedure  laid down  in Article 7. 

Article 7 

1. 

2. 

The Commission shall be assisted by the Customs  Code Committee set up by Article 247 of Council 
Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92l. 

The  representative  of the  Commission  shall  submit  to the  Committee  a  draft  of the  measures  to  be 
adopted.  The Committee shall deliver its opinion on the draft  within a time limit which the  chairman 
may lay down according to the urgency of the matter.  The opinion shall be delivered by the  majority 
laid  down  in  Article  148(2)  of the  Treaty  in the  case  of  decisions  which  the  Council  is  required  to 
adopt  on a  proposal  from  the  Commission.  The votes  of the  representatives  of the  Member  States 
within the Committee shall be weighted in the manner set out in that Article.  The chairman  shall not 
vote. 

The  Commission  shall  adopt  the  measures,  which  shall  apply  immediately.  However,  if  those 
measures are not in accordance with the opinion of the Committee, they shall be communicated  by the 
Commission  to the  Council  forthwith. 
In that  event  the  Commission  shall  defer  application  of  the 
measures upon which it has decided for three months from the date of such communication, 

1  OJNoL302,  19.10.1992, p.  1. Modified by the Act of Accession. 

b 

The Council, acting by qualified majority, may take a different  decision within the period referred to in 
the previous indent. 

The Committee  may examine any question  concerning  the application  of Article  1 to  6 of this 
Regulation which is raised by its chairman,  either on his own initiative or  at the request  of a 
Member  State. 

This Regulation shall enter into force on  1  January  1997. 

Article 8 

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