Proposal for a

COUNCIL REGULATION

adopting autonomous and transitional measures concerning the import of certain
processed agricultural products originating in Hungary and the export of certain
processed agricultural products to Hungary

(presented by the Commission)

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

Council guidelines authorised the Commission to enter into negotiations with the Republic of
Hungary with a view to improving the trade arrangement for processed agricultural products
in preparation for accession.

After these negotiations a trade agreement was concluded between the European Commission
and Hungary which is scheduled to enter into force on 1 June 2003. On the Community side
this  agreement  introduces  concessions  in  the  form  of  complete  liberalisation  of  trade  for
certain processed agricultural products and duty free quotas for others – for imports outside of
these  quotas  the  current  trade  provisions  as  laid  down  by  Protocol  No  2  of  the  European
Agreement between the European Communities and Hungary will continue to apply.

The  Community  concessions  are  granted  subject  to  the  adoption  of  Hungary  of  reciprocal
measures. In order to give effect to this agreement, on the Community side, it is necessary to
adopt  certain  autonomous  measures  concerning  the  import  of  certain  processed  agricultural
products originating in Hungary.

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having  regard  to  the  Treaty  establishing  the  European  Community  and  in  particular  Article
133, (2) and (4) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

Protocol No 3 to the Europe Agreement between the European Communities and their
Member  States,  of  the  one  part,  and  the  Republic  of  Hungary,  of  the  other  part,
hereinafter referred to as "Europe Agreement with Hungary" and approved by Decision
93/742/Euratom,  ECSC,  EC  of  the  Council  and  of  the  Commission  of  13  December
1993 1,  provides  for tariff  concessions  for  processed agricultural products originating
in Hungary. Protocol No 3 was amended by the Adaptation Protocol 2 adjusting trade
aspects  of  the  Europe  Agreement  with  Hungary.  It  was  improved  by  Decision
No 2/2002 (2002/528/EC) of the EC-Hungary Association Council.3

A  trade  agreement  has  recently  been  concluded  which  amends  the  Adaptation
Protocol.  It  aims  to  improve  economic  convergence  in  preparation  for  accession  and
should  enter  into  force  not  later  than  1  June  2003.  On  the  Community  side  this
agreement lays down concessions in the form of completed liberalisation of trade for
certain  processed  agricultural  products  and  duty  free  quotas  for  others.  For  imports
outside of these quotas the current provisions continue to apply.

The procedure for adopting a  decision to amend the Adaptation Protocol  will  not  be
completed in time for it to enter into force on 1 June 2003. It is therefore necessary to
provide  for  the  application  of  the  concessions  made  to  Hungary  on  an  autonomous
basis from 1 June 2003.

For  the  importation  of  certain  goods  no  duties  should  be  applied.  For  certain  other
goods tariff quotas should be opened; those quotas should be reduced pro  rata  to  the
quotas used in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 748/2002.

For  goods  originating  in  the  European  Union  and  exported  to  Hungary,  which  shall
benefit  from  duty  free  or  duty  free  quotas  in  Hungary,  no  export  refunds  shall  be
granted.
This will be subject to a decision by the Commission under the procedure laid down in
Council Decision No 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999.4

Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 of 2 July 1993 laying down provisions for
the  implementation  of  Council  Regulation  (EEC)  No  2913/92  establishing  the
Community  Customs  Code 5  provides  for  a  system  for  managing  tariff  quotas.  The
tariff  quotas  granted  by  this  Regulation  should  be  managed  by  the  Community
authorities and the Member States in accordance with this system.

The measures necessary to implement this Regulation should be adopted in accordance
with Council Decision No 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures
for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission.6
