Common Customs Tariff duties on certain industrial, agricultural and fishery products

 
 
  
 
EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 

1. 

CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL 

•  Grounds for and objectives of the proposal 

•  The Commission, assisted by the Economic Tariff Questions Group (ETQG), has reviewed 
all  requests  for  temporary  suspension  of  autonomous  Common  Customs  Tariff  duties 
forwarded  by  the  Member  States.  This  proposal  concerns  a  number  of  agricultural  and 
industrial products. The suspension requests were examined in the light of the criteria set 
out in the Communication from the Commission concerning autonomous tariff suspensions 
and quotas (OJ C 128, 25.4.1998). Following this review, the Commission considers that 
the suspension of duties is justified for the products listed in Annex I to this proposal for a 
Regulation. Products for which suspension is no longer in the Union's economic interests 
have been withdrawn. Annex I to this Regulation lists the products for which suspension is 
proposed, or the new descriptions for which the wording has to be changed, or a new CN 
or TARIC code became necessary. Annex II lists the products removed from the Annex to 
Regulation (EC) No 1255/96  and  product  descriptions,  CN  or  TARIC  codes  which  are 
replaced by new ones in Annex I.General context 

It is in the interest of the Union to suspend the autonomous Common Customs Tariff 
(CCT)  duties  for  a  number  of  new  products  not  listed  in  the  Annex  to  Council 
Regulation (EC) No 1255/96. 

•  Existing provisions in the area of the proposal 

Council  Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 
the  autonomous 
Common Customs Tariff duties on certain industrial and agricultural products as last 
modified by Council Regulation (EU) No 1265/20101. 

temporarily  suspending 

•  Consistency with other policies and objectives of the Union 

The proposal is in line with the trade, entreprise, development and external relations 
policies  The  measures  proposed  do  not  harm  trade  with  countries  enjoying  a 
preferential  tariff  treatment  (e.g.  GSP,  ACP  regime,  candidate  and  potential 
candidate countries of the Western Balkans). 

2. 

RESULTS OF CONSULTATIONS WITH THE INTERESTED PARTIES AND 
IMPACT ASSESSMENTS 

•  Consultation of interested parties 

The  ETQG  representing  the  industries  of  each  Member  State  was  consulted.  All 
listed  suspensions  are  the  result  of  agreements  made  or  compromises  arrived  at 
during discussionswithin that group. 

•  Collection and use of expertise

There was no need for external expertise. 

•  Impact assessment 

This proposal relieves Union industry from 35 MEUR duty/year and invigorates it in 
competition  with  industry  from  third  countries  supplying  finished  products  into  the 
Union  market  in  accordance  with  the  principles  set  out  in  the  Commission 
Communication. The proposed amendment is an instrument to keep and provide new 
employment within the European Union.

LEGAL ELEMENTS OF THE PROPOSAL 

•  Summary of the proposed action 

Proposal  for  a  Council  Regulation  amending  Council  Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 
temporarily  suspending  the  autonomous  CCT  duties  on  certain  industrial  and 
agricultural products. 

•  Legal basis 

The  legal  basis  of  this  regulation  proposal  is  Article  31  of  the  Treaty  on  the 
Functioning of the European Union. 

•  Subsidiarity principle 

The  subsidiarity  principle  does  not  apply,  as  the  proposal  falls  under  the  exclusive 
competence of the Union. 

•  Proportionality principle 

The  proposal  complies  with  the  principle  of  proportionality  for  the  following 
reasons: -his set of measures aims at simplifying procedures for operators engaged in 
foreign  trade,  in  accordance  with  the  Commission  communication  concerning 
autonomous tariff suspensions and quotas.2  

•  Choice of instruments 

Proposed instrument: Regulation 

Other  instruments  would  not  be  appropriate  for  the  following  reason  Article  31 
TFEU  provides  that  autonomous  tariff  suspensions  and  quotas  are  fixed  by  the 
Council acting by qualified majority on the basis of a Commission proposal. 

4.

Proposal for a 

COUNCIL REGULATION 

amending Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 temporarily suspending the autonomous 
Common Customs Tariff duties on certain industrial, agricultural and fishery products 

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, 

Having  regard  to  the  Treaty  on  the  Functioning  of  the  European  Union,  and  in  particular 
Article 31 thereof, 

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission, 

Whereas: 

(1) 

(2) 

(3) 

(4) 

(5) 

(6) 

It is in the interest of the Union to suspend totally the autonomous Common Customs 
Tariff duties on a certain number of new products currently not listed in the Annex to 
Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/963. 

Four  products  with  CN  and  TARIC  codes  2933 39 99 70,  2933 39 99 80, 
8507 80 30 40  and  8507 80 30 50  which  are  currently  listed  in  the  Annex  to 
Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 should be deleted because it is no longer in the interest of 
the Union to maintain the suspension of autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties 
for those products. 

It  is  necessary  to  modify  the  product  description  of  15  suspensions  in  the  Annex  to 
Regulation  (EC)  No  1255/96  in  order  to  take  account  of  technical  product 
developments  and  economic  trends  on  the  market.  Those  suspensions  should  be 
deleted  from  the  list  in  that  Annex  and  reinserted  as  new  suspensions  using  new 
descriptions. Moreover, TARIC codes for 12 products should be changed. 

The  suspensions  for  which  those  technical  modifications  are  necessary  should  be 
deleted from the list of suspensions in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 and 
should be reinserted in that list using new product descriptions, or new TARIC codes.  

In the interest of clarity, the modified entries should be marked with an asterisk in the 
lists of inserted and deleted suspensions set out in this Regulation. 

Experience has shown that it is necessary to provide an expiry date to the suspensions 
listed in Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 to ensure that account is taken of technological 
and economic changes. This should not exclude the premature termination of certain 
measures  or  their  continuation  beyond  that  period,  if  economic  justification  is

provided,  in  accordance  with  the  principles  laid  down  in  the  Commission 
communication of 1998 concerning autonomous tariff suspensions and quotas. 

Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 should therefore be amended accordingly. 

Since  the  suspensions  laid  down  in  this  Regulation  have  to  take  effect  from 
1 July 2011,  this  Regulation  should  apply  from  the  same  date  and  enter  into  force 
immediately,

the European Union.

OTHER REMARKS  

In order to avoid prolongation of suspensions which are no longer needed an expiry date has 
been set out. 

This  proposal  contains  the  amendments  which  must  be  made  to  the  Annex  to  the  existing 
Regulation in order to take account of the following: 

1. 

2. 

new requests for suspension which have been presented and accepted; 

technical  product  developments  and  economic  trends  on  the  market  resulting  in  the 
lifting of certain existing suspensions. 

Addition 

This  Annex,  in  addition  to  the  amendments  resulting  from  description  changes,  contains  96 
new  products.  The  uncollected  duties  corresponding  to  these  suspensions,  calculated  on  the 
basis  of  requesting  Member  State  projections  for  2  half  of  2011,  2012  until  2015,  total 
27.06 MEUR/year. 

On the basis of the existing statistics for preceding years, it would appear, however, that this 
amount  must  be  increased  by  an  average  factor, estimated at 1.8, to take account of imports 
into other Member States using the same suspensions. This means a loss of revenue of some 
48,7 MEUR /year. 

Withdrawal: 

2  products  have  been  withdrawn  from  this  Annex  reflecting  the  reintroduction  of  customs 
duties. This represents an increase of MEUR 2.0 in resources, as calculated from requests for 
suspension or available statistics (2010). 

Estimated cost of this operation 

Taking available statistics (2010) as a basis, the impact on the loss of revenue resulting from 
this  Regulation  may  be  estimated  at  48.7 – 2.0 = 46.7 MEUR (gross  amount,  expenses 
incurred  in  collection  included)  x  0.75 = 35 MEUR/year  for  the  period  01.07.2011 -
 31.12.2015. 

The  loss  of  revenue  in  Traditional  Own  Resources  shall  be  compensated  by  Member  States 
contributions based on the GNI.
