amending Regulation (EC) No 1162/95 laying down special detailed rules for the application of the
system of import and export licences for cereals and rice

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Article 1

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 of 30
June 1992 on the common organisation of the market in
cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1666/
2000 (2), and in particular Article 13(11) thereof,

Regulation (EC) No 1162/95 is amended as follows:

1. Article 7a is replaced by the following:

‘Article 7a

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 of 22
December 1995 on the common organisation of the market in
rice (3), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No
411/2002 (4), and in particular Article 9(2) and Article 13(15)
thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

(2)

liberalisation of

Trade agreements have recently been concluded between
the European Commission and Estonia, Latvia and
Lithuania establishing certain concessions in the form of
Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural products
and total
trade in other agricultural
products. In the cereals sector, the elimination of refunds
is one of these concessions. The agreement with Estonia
covers all the products referred to in Article 1(1) of
Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 and rice starch. The agree-
ment with Lithuania covers all the above products except
for barley and maize and certain products processed
from those cereals. The agreement with Latvia does not
cover certain processed products.

The authorities of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania have
undertaken to ensure
that only consignments of
Community products covered by the trade agreements
on which no refund has been granted are allowed for
import into those countries. To that end, Article 7a of
Commission Regulation (EC) No 1162/95 (5), as last
(EC) No 2298/2001 (6),
amended
governing exports to Poland should be made to apply
also to exports to those countries.
