17(3)

accordance with Article

In
of Directive
2003/48/EC the Council, on the basis of a report by
the Commission, concluded before 1 July 2004 that
the conditions set out
in Article 17(2) of Directive
2003/48/EC would not be met, having regard to the
dates of entry into force of the relevant measures in
the third countries and dependent or associated terri-
tories concerned.

if
Article 17(3) of Directive 2003/48/EC provides that,
the Council does not decide that the condition set out
in paragraph 2 of that Article will be met, it shall, acting
unanimously on a proposal by the Commission, adopt a
new date for the purposes of paragraph 2.

On the basis of reports from the Commission and the
relevant Member States, it appears that each of the third
countries and dependent or associated territories referred
to in Article 17(2) of Directive 2003/48/EC will be able
to meet the conditions set out in that paragraph by
1 July 2005.

(6)

The date of 1 July 2005 should therefore be adopted as
the new date for
the purposes of Article 17(2) of
Directive 2003/48/EC, which date shall also be subject
to the conditions set out in that paragraph.

For reasons of legal security of operators and taxpayers,
this Decision should be adopted as a matter of urgency,
which warrants a derogation from the six-week period
provided for in point I.3 of the Protocol on the role of
national parliaments in the European Union,

In Article 17(2) of Directive 2003/48/EC ‘1 January 2005’ shall
be replaced by ‘1 July 2005’.
