COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1142/2001

of 7 June 2001

amending Regulation (EC) No 2505/96 opening and providing for the administration of
autonomous Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural and industrial products

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community, and in particular Article 26 thereof,

Article 1

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

By virtue of Regulation (EC) No 2505/96 (1) the Council
opened Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural
and industrial products. Community demand for these
favourable
products should be met under the most
conditions. Community tariff quotas should therefore be
opened at reduced or zero rates of duty for appropriate
volumes, and increased or extended in the case of
certain existing tariff quotas, while avoiding any distur-
bance to the markets for these products.

It is no longer in the Community's interest to maintain a
Community tariff quota on some of
the products
covered by Regulation (EC) No 2505/96, and those
products should therefore be removed from the table in
Annex I thereto.

(1)

(2)

(3)

For the quota period from 1 January to 30 June 2001, Annex I
to Regulation (EC) No 2505/96 shall be amended as follows:

— order number 09.2935: the amount of the tariff quota shall

be altered to 80 000 tonnes.

For the quota period from 1 January to 31 December 2001,
Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 2505/96 shall be amended as
follows:

— order number 09.2711: the amount of the tariff quota shall

be altered to 700 000 tonnes;

— order number 09.2727: the amount of the tariff quota shall

be altered to 10 000 tonnes;

— order number 09.2867: the amount of the tariff quota shall

be altered to 460 tonnes;

— order number 09.2976: the amount of the tariff quota shall

be altered to 1 200 000 units;

— order number 09.2993: the amount of the tariff quota shall

be altered to 120 000 000 m2.

Having regard to the economic importance of this Regu-
lation for European industry it is necessary to invoke the
the
grounds of urgency referred to in point
Additional Protocol to the Treaty of Amsterdam on the
role of national parliaments in the European Union.

I(3) of

With effect from 1 July 2001, the tariff quotas listed in the
Annex to this Regulation shall be added to Annex I to Regula-
tion (EC) No 2505/96.

Article 2

(4)

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

Article 3

tion in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
