COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 806/2001

of 26 April 2001

amending Regulation (EC) No 174/1999, as regards management of the milk powder quota for
export to the Dominican Republic

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

1. Paragraph 4(a) is replaced by the following wording:

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17
May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk
and milk products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No
1670/2000 (2), and in particular Article 30(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

(2)

(3)

(4)

Article 20a of Commission Regulation (EC) No 174/
1999 of 26 January 1999 laying down special detailed
rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No
804/68 as regards export licences and export refunds in
the case of milk and milk products (3), as last amended
by Regulation (EC) No 2884/2000 (4),
lays down the
provisions applicable to the management of the milk
powder quota for export to the Dominican Republic
under the Memorandum of Understanding concluded
between the European Community and the Dominican
Republic
and approved by Council Decision 98/
486/EC (5).

In view of the difficulties encountered in the Dominican
Republic during 2000 in implementing the Memor-
andum, that year should be excluded from the reference
period for future applications under the quota. Measures
should also be taken to avoid the cancellation of
licences. Accordingly, the amount of the security for
exports under the quota should be increased and release
of that security should be conditional upon proof being
provided that the products had been declared for import
in the Dominican Republic during the year of the quota.
Other provisions should be adapted in order to guar-
antee better administration of the scheme.

In view of the fact that the period for the submission of
licence applications is fixed at 1 to 10 May 2001, this
Regulation should enter into force immediately.

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in
accordance with the opinion of
the Management
Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
