amending Council Regulation (EC) No 32/2000 in order to extend the Community tariff quotas for
jute and coconut-fibre products

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 32/2000 of 17
December 1999 opening and providing for the administration
of Community tariff quotas bound in GATT and certain other
Community tariff quotas and establishing detailed rules for
adjusting the quotas, and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No
1808/95 (1), and in particular the second indent of Article
9(1)(b),

Whereas:

(1)

(2)

In accordance with the offer it made within the United
Nations Conference on Trade and Development (Unctad)
and alongside its scheme of generalised preferences
(GSP), the Community introduced tariff preferences in
1971 for jute and coconut-fibre products originating in
certain developing countries; these preferences took the
form of a gradual reduction of Common Customs Tariff
duties and,
the
complete suspension of these duties.

from 1978 to 31 December 1994,

Since the entry into force of the new GSP scheme on 1
January 1995, the Community has, alongside the GATT,
opened autonomous zero-duty Community tariff quotas
for specific quantities of jute and coconut-fibre products
until 31 December 2001 by Council Regulation (EC) No
764/96 (2), as amended by Regulations (EC) No 1401/

98 (3) and (EC) No 32/2000. Since the GSP scheme will
be extended until 31 December 2004 by a Council
Regulation, the arrangement for jute and coconut-fibre
products should also be extended until 31 December
2004.

(3)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in
the Customs Code
accordance with the opinion of
Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
