COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1890/2003

of 27 October 2003

adopting autonomous and transitional measures concerning the importation of certain processed
agricultural products originating in Malta and the exportation of certain processed agricultural
products to Malta

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Com-
munity and in particular Article 133 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

(1)

(2)

(3)

The Agreement establishing an Association between the
European Economic Community and Malta, (hereinafter
referred to as the ‘Association Agreement’), approved by
Regulation (EEC) No 492/71 (1) provides
tariff
concessions for processed agricultural products origi-
nating in Malta.

for

A trade agreement has been concluded, which amends
the Association Agreement. The agreement aims to
improve economic convergence in preparation for the
accession of Malta to the European Union and is sched-
uled to enter into force no later than 1 November 2003.
On the Community side that agreement
lays down
concessions in the form of complete liberalisation of
trade for certain processed agricultural products and
duty-free quotas for others. For imports outside of those
quotas the provisions laid down in the Association
Agreement continue to apply.

Because the procedure for adopting a decision to amend
the Association Agreement will not be completed in
time for it to enter into force on 1 November 2003, it is
necessary to provide for the application of the tariff
concessions made to Malta on an autonomous basis as
from 1 November 2003.

(9)

Certain processed agricultural products not covered by
Annex I to the Treaty should not be eligible for export
refunds under Commission Regulation (EC) No 1520/
2000 of 13 July 2000 laying down common detailed
rules for the application of the system of granting export
refunds on certain agricultural products exported in the
form of goods not covered by Annex I to the Treaty,
and the criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds (2).

On processed agricultural products covered by the Asso-
ciation Agreement but not listed in this Regulation or
for which the tariff quotas opened by this Regulation are
exhausted, the trade provision laid down in the Associa-
tion Agreement should continue to apply.

Council Regulation (EC) No 3010/95 of 18 December
1995 totally or partially suspending the customs duties
applicable to certain products falling within Chapters 1
to 24 of the Combined Nomenclature originating in
Malta (3) should continue to apply for certain goods
covered by it but not listed in this Regulation and for
certain other goods covered by it, for which the tariff
quotas opened by this Regulation are exhausted.

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 (4) provides for a system for
managing tariff quotas. The tariff quotas opened by this
Regulation should be managed by the Community
authorities and the Member States in accordance with
that system.

The measures necessary for the implementation of this
Regulation should be adopted in accordance with
Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying
down the procedures for the exercise of implementing
powers conferred on the Commission (5),

(4)

For the importation of certain processed agricultural
products no customs duties should be applied and for
others duty-free quotas should be opened.
