COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 775/2000

of 13 April 2000

amending Regulation (EC) No 2505/96 opening and providing for the administration of auto-
nomous Community tariff quotas 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 26 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

(1)

(2)

By Council Regulation (EC) No 2745/1999 (1)
the
Council opened a duty-free autonomous tariff quota for
ferro-chrome of 1 035 000 tonnes. This quota covers at
present the total need of European processing industries
for a duty-free supply of ferro-chrome in the year 2000.

By Council Regulation (EC) No 2793/1999 of 17
December 1999 on certain procedures for applying the
and Cooperation Agreement
Trade, Development
between the European Community and the Republic of
South Africa (2), and additional duty-free tariff quota for
ferro-chrome originating in South Africa of 515 000
tonnes was introduced with effect from 1 January 2000
and applicable when the Agreement with the Republic
of South Africa enters into force.

(3) With the introduction of

the tariff quota for South
Africa the quantity for the autonomous quota has to be
reduced accordingly in order to avoid injurious effects

on Community producers of this product and to allow
South Africa the full benefit of its quota.

(4)

Having regard to the economic importance of this Regu-
lation for European industry it is necessary to invoke the
ground of urgency referred to in point I(3) of the Addi-
tional Protocol to the Treaty of Amsterdam on the role
of national parliaments in the European Union.

(5)

Regulation (EC) No 2505/96 (3) should accordingly be
amended,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

In the table appearing in Annex I
to Regulation (EC) No
2505/96, the amount of the tariff quota relating to order
number 09.2711 shall be altered to 520 000 tonnes.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publica-
tion in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

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

Done at Luxembourg, 13 April 2000.
