COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1471/1999

of 5 July 1999

amending Regulation (EC) No 347/96 establishing a system of rapid reporting of the release of
salmon for free circulation in the European Community

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 of 17
December 1992 on the common organisation of the market in
aquaculture and fisheries products (1), as last amended by Regu-
lation (EC) No 3318/94 (2), and in particular Article 30 thereof,

(1) Whereas by Regulation (EC) No 347/96 (3) the Commis-
sion established a system of rapid reporting of the terms
of importation of salmon on account of market dis-
turbance and the imposition of a temporary minimum
price;

(2) Whereas following the conclusion of anti-dumping and
anti-subsidies investigations, Council Regulation (EC) No
772/1999 (4) as last amended by Regulation (EC) No
1003/1999 (5),
imposes definitive anti-dumping and
countervailing duties and an effective minimum price by
presentation of salmon, on imports of farmed Atlantic
salmon originating in Norway; whereas these duties do
not apply to wild Atlantic salmon falling within the
same CN codes;

(3) Whereas the duties do not apply to imports for farmed
Atlantic salmon exported by the companies listed in the
Annex to Regulation (EC) No 772/1999, which are
companies exempted from the duties on account of
having offered price undertakings, which the Commis-
sion has accepted by Decision 97/634/EC (6) as last
amended by Regulation (EC) No 929/1999 (7);

(4) Whereas in order to improve the usefulness of the in-
formation communicated through the rapid reporting
system and to allow monitoring of the undertakings and
of the anti-dumping and anti-subsidy duties, information
relating to imports of salmon should be further broken
down both by type and presentation and by exporting
company in the case of Norway by amending Regulation
(EC) No 347/96;

(1) OJ L 388, 31.12.1992, p. 1.
(2) OJ L 350, 31.12.1994, p. 15.
(3) OJ L 49, 28.2.1996, p. 7.
(4) OJ L 101, 16.4.1999, p. 1.
(5) OJ L 123, 13.5.1999, p. 19.
(6) OJ L 267, 30.9.1997, p. 81.
(7) OJ L 115, 4.5.1999, p. 13.

(5) Whereas the list of undertakings has been repeatedly
amended due to violations, withdrawals, or acceptance
of new undertakings; whereas it is expected that similar
amendments will occur in the future;

(6) Whereas the technology now exists to send computer-
generated data by electronic mail and therefore the form
of transmission should be definitively introduced and
the message format defined; whereas Regulation (EC) No
347/96 should be amended to this end;

(7) Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation
are in accordance with the opinion of the Management
Committee for Fishery Products,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
