Proposal for a Council Decision on the conclusion of a Protocol adjusting the trade aspects of the
Europe Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their
Member States, of the one part, and the Czech Republic, of the other part, to take account of
the outcome of negotiations between the parties on new mutual agricultural concessions

(2003/C 45 E/37)

COM(2002) 657 final — 2002/0271(ACC)

(Submitted by the Commission on 26 November 2002)

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

On 30 March 1999, the Council authorised the Commission to open negotiations for additional mutual
agricultural concessions in the framework of the Europe Agreements between the European Community
and the associated Central and Eastern European Countries.

The negotiations with the Czech Republic, which were undertaken in the overall context of the accession
process, were based on Article 21(5) of the Europe Agreement. This article provides that the Community
and the Czech Republic shall examine in the Association Council, product by product and on an orderly
and reciprocal basis, the possibility of granting each other further concessions, taking account of the
volume of trade in agricultural products between them, of their particular sensitivity, of the rules of the
common agricultural policy of the Community and of the role of agriculture in the Czech Republic's
economy.

According to the Council directives, the negotiations should lead to a fair equilibrium, both in terms of
exports and imports, between the interests of the European Community and its Member States and those
of the associated countries. On this basis, two rounds of negotiation were undertaken and concluded
between the parties on 4 May 2000 and 6 June 2002.

The results of the negotiations between the Commission and the Czech Republic on additional agricultural
concessions involve immediate, full and reciprocal liberalisation of trade in some agricultural products.
Agreement was also reached on opening new tariff quotas in certain sectors and increasing certain
previously existing quotas.

The present Protocol on new mutual agricultural concessions is to form a new Additional Protocol to the
Europe Agreement setting out all (i.e. both old and new) agricultural trade concessions agreed between the
Community and the Czech Republic.

Both sides implemented the results of the first round of negotiations on an autonomous and transitional
basis from 1 July 2000. On the Community side, the new concessions were implemented by Council
Regulation (EC) No 2433/2000 (1) of 17 October 2000. The present Protocol will replace these
autonomous and transitional measures on the day of its entry into force.

provided for in the Protocol adjusting trade aspects of
the Europe Agreement to take account of the accession
of the Republic of Austria, the Republic of Finland and
the Kingdom of Sweden to the European Union and the
outcome of

should therefore be repealed,

nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (OJ L 279, 23.10.2001).

(2) Notwithstanding the rules for the interpretation of the Combined nomenclature, the wording of the description of the products is to be considered as having no more
than indicative value, the preferential scheme being determined, within the context of this Annex, by the coverage of the CN code. Where ex CN codes are indicated,
the preferential scheme is to be determined by application to the CN code and corresponding description taken together.

(3) In cases where a MFN minimum duty exits, the applicable minimum duty is equal to the MFN minimum duty multiplied by the percentage indicated in this column.
(4) Only applicable with effect from the date of entry into force of this Protocol.
(5) The quota for this product is opened for Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania and the Slovak Republic. Where it appears
likely that total Community imports of live bovine animals may exceed 500 000 heads in a given marketing year the Community may take the management measures
needed to protect its market, not withstanding any other rights given under the Agreement.

(6) The quota for this product is opened for Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania and the Slovak Republic.
(7) The Community may take into account, in the framework of its legislation and when appropriate the supply needs of its market and the need to maintain its market

balance.

(8) Subject to minimum import price arrangements contained in the Annex to the present Annex.
(9) Applies only to the ad valorem part of the duty.
(10) This concession is only applicable to products non-benefiting from any kind of export subsidies.
(11) Quantities of goods subject to this existing tariff quota and released for free circulation as from 1 July 2002 before the entry into force of this Protocol shall be fully

counted against the quantity provided for in the fourth column and should be submitted to the duty applicable at the moment of import.

(12) As liquid egg-yolk equivalent: 1 kg dried egg yolks = 2,12 kg liquid eggs.

2. The minimum import prices, as set out in Article 1, will be respected on a consignment by consignment basis. In the
case of a customs declaration value being lower than the minimum import price, a countervailing duty will be
charged equal to the difference between the minimum import price and the customs declaration value.

3. If the import prices of a given product covered by this Annex show a trend suggesting that the prices could go below
the level of the minimum import prices in the immediate future, the European Commission will inform the Czech
authorities in order to enable them to correct the situation.

4. At the request of either the Community or the Czech Republic, the Association Committee shall examine the
functioning of the system or the revision of the level of the minimum import prices. If appropriate, the Association
Committee shall take the necessary decisions.

5. To encourage and promote the development of trade and for the mutual benefit of all parties concerned, a
consultation meeting will be organised three months before the beginning of each marketing year in the
European Community. This consultation meeting will take place between the European Commission and the
interested European producers' organisations for the products concerned, of the one part and the authorities',
producers' and exporters' organisations of all the associated exporting countries, of the other part.

During this consultation meeting, the market situation for soft fruit including, in particular, forecasts for production,
stock situation, price evolution and possible market development, as well as possibilities to adapt supply to demand,
will be discussed.
