EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

Under the terms of Article 19 of the Europe Agreement between the European Communities
and  their  Member  States,  of  the  one  part,  and  the  Republic  of  Hungary,  of  the  other  part,
approved  by  the  Decision  of  the  Council  and  of  the  Commission  (93/742/EC,  ECSC,
Euratom)  of  13  December  19931,  Protocol  3  lays  down  the  trade  arrangements  for  the
processed agricultural products which are listed therein. In accordance with Article 2(1) of 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, the outcome of the Uruguay Round negotiations on agriculture and the improvements
to the existing preferential arrangements  approved by Council Decision (1999/67/EC)  of  22
October  19982,  Protocol  3  to  the  Europe  Agreement  has  been  amended.  Protocol  3  has  last
been amended  by Decision No  2/2002  of  the  Association  Council,  Association  between  the
European  Communities  and  their  Member  States,  of  the  one  part,  and  the  Republic  of
Hungary,  of  the  other  part  of  16  April  2002  concerning  the  improvement  of  the  trade
arrangements  for  processed  agricultural  products  envisaged  by  Protocol  3  to  the  Europe
Agreement3.

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.

The two parties have reached a draft agreement, which envisages completed liberalisation of
trade for certain processed agricultural products and duty free quotas or a reduction of import
duties for others.

For imports outside of these quotas the current trade provisions as laid down by Protocol 3 of
the Europe Agreement will continue to apply.

For  goods  originating  in  the  European  Union  and  exported  to  Hungary,  which  shall  benefit
from duty free quotas in Hungary, no export refunds shall be granted.

The Council has authorised the implementation of this agreement in the form of autonomous
and transitional measures, which have been in force since 1 July 2003. It is therefore proposed
to the Council to adopt this joint position for a Decision of the Association Council to amend
the Annexes to Protocol 3.

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article
133 in conjunction with the second subparagraph of Article 300(2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

(3)

(4)

The  Europe  Agreement4  establishes  an  association  between 
the  European
Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Hungary,
of  the  other  part.  Its  Protocol  3  on  trade  arrangements  for  processed  agricultural
products  has  last  been  amended  by  Decision  No  2/2002  of  the  Association  Council,
Association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one
part, and the Republic of Hungary, of the other part of 16 April 2002 concerning the
improvement of the trade arrangements for processed agricultural products envisaged
by Protocol 3 to the Europe Agreement5.

New  trade  improvements  have  recently  been  negotiated  which  aim  to  improve
economic  convergence in preparation for accession  and  lay  down  concessions  in  the
form of completed liberalisation of trade for certain agricultural products and duty free
quotas for others. For imports outside of the quotas the current provisions continue to
apply.

Under  Protocol  3  the  Association  Council  has  to  decide  in  particular  on  any
amendment of the duties mentioned in the annexes to Protocol 3 and on the increase or
abolition of tariff quotas.

Under the second indent of Article 2(1) of that Protocol, the Association Council also
decides that the duties applied may be reduced in response to reductions resulting from
mutual concessions relating to processed agricultural products.

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.  Regulation  No  999/2003  will  be  redundant  and
should therefore be repealed as soon as the decision of the Association Council enters
into force.

the  implementation  of  Council  Regulation  (EEC)  No  2913/92  establishing  the
Community Customs Code7 provide the procedures for managing the tariff quotas to

Europe Agreement between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one

3 on the bilateral trade of processed agricultural products, shall be based on a draft Decision

concerning the improvement of the trade arrangements for processed agricultural

THE ASSOCIATION COUNCIL,

Having  regard  to  the  Europe  Agreement  establishing  an  association  between  the  European
Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Hungary, of the
other part, and in particular Article 1(2) of Protocol 3 thereto,

Whereas:

Protocol  38,  as  amended  by  the  Protocol  adjusting  trade  aspects  of  the  Europe
Agreement  with  Hungary9  to  take  into  account  the  accession  of  the  Republic  of
Austria, the Republic of Finland and the Kingdom of Sweden to the European Union
and  the  outcome  of  the  Uruguay  Round  negotiations  on  agriculture,  lays  down  the
trade arrangements for processed agricultural products between the Community and
Hungary.  Protocol  3  has  last  been  amended  by  Decision  No  2/2002  of  the
Association  Council,  Association  between  the  European  Communities  and  their
Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Hungary, of the other part of 16
April  2002  concerning  the  improvement  of  the  trade  arrangements  for  processed
agricultural products envisaged by Protocol 3 to the Europe Agreement10.

New  trade  improvements  have  recently  been  negotiated  which  aim  to  improve
economic convergence in preparation for accession and lay down concessions in the
form  of  completed  liberalisation  of  trade  for  certain  agricultural  products  and  duty
free  quotas  for  others.  It  should  enter  into  force  not  later  than  1  July  2003.  For
imports outside of the quotas the current provisions continue to apply.

Under the second indent of Article 2 (1) of Protocol 3 the Association Council also
decides  that  the  duties  applied  may  be  reduced  in  response  to  reductions  resulting
from mutual concessions relating to processed agricultural products.

For the importation of certain goods no customs duties should be applied. For certain
other  goods  tariff  quotas  should  be  opened;  those  quotas  should  be  reduced  by  the
quantities  of  goods  subject  to  the  tariff  quotas  from  1  January  2003  used  in
accordance with Regulation (EC) No 748/2002 of 29 April 2002 on the  suspension
and  opening  of  tariff  quotas  applicable  to  the  importation  into  the  Community  of
certain  processed  agricultural  products  originating  in  Hungary11  and  with  Council
Regulation (EC) No 999/2003 adopting autonomous measures concerning the import
of  certain  processed  agricultural  products  originating  in  Hungary  and  the  export  of
certain processed agricultural products to Hungary12.
