Proposal for a 

COUNCIL REGULATION 

amending Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 opening and providing for the management of 
autonomous tariff quotas of the Union for certain agricultural and industrial products 

 
 
  
 
EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 

1. 

CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL 

Autonomous tariff quotas of the Union are needed for products where production in the Union 
is insufficient to meet the needs of the user industry in the Union for the current quota period. 
In  response  to  requests  from  several  Member  States,  the  Commission,  together  with  the 
government  experts  concerned,  considered  whether  to  open  autonomous  tariff  quotas  for 
certain agricultural and industrial products. 

On  22 December 2009  the  Council  adopted  Regulation  (EU)  No 7/2010  opening  and 
providing  for  the  management  of  autonomous  tariff  quotas  of  the  Union  for  certain 
agricultural and industrial products so that Union demand for the products in question could 
be met under the most favourable conditions. 

Tariff  quotas  of  the  Union  should  be  opened  at  zero  or  reduced  rates  of  the  autonomous 
Common  Customs  Tariff  duty  for  appropriate  volumes,  without  disturbing  the  markets  for 
such products. Discussions at meetings of the Economic Tariff Questions Group showed that 
the Member States were ready to open quotas for the products covered by the proposal for a 
Regulation, without disturbing the markets for such products 

The proposal is in line with agricultural, trade, entreprise, development and external relations 
policies.  Especially  this  proposal  is  not  at  the  expense  of  countries  enjoying  a  preferential 
trading  agreement  with  the  EU  (e.g.  GSP,  ACP  regime,  candidate  countries  and  potential 
candidates). 

2. 

RESULTS  OF  CONSULTATIONS  OF  THE  INTERESTED  PARTIES  AND 
IMPACT ASSESSMENTS 

The Economic Tariff Questions Group representing the industries of each Member State was 
consulted. All listed quotas reflect the agreement reached by the Group. 

There was no mention of potentially serious risks with irreversible consequences. 

This proposal will follow an inter service consultation procedure and will be published after 
its adoption by the Council. 

3. 

LEGAL ELEMENTS OF THE PROPOSAL 

Amendment  of  a  Council  Regulation  opening  and  providing  for  the  management  of 
autonomous tariff quotas of the Union for certain agricultural and industrial products on the 
legal basis of Article 31 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. By virtue of 
that Article autonomous tariff quotas are fixed by the Council acting on a qualified majority 
on the basis of a Commission proposal. 

The  proposal  falls  under  the  exclusive  competence  of  the  Union.  The  subsidiary  principle 
therefore does not apply.

This  set  of  measures  is  in  line  with  the  principles  for  simplifying  the  procedures  for  the 
operators  engaged  in  foreign  trade  and  with  the  Commission  communication  of  1998 
concerning autonomous tariff suspensions and quotas (C 128, 25.4.1998, p.2).

Proposal for a 

COUNCIL REGULATION 

amending Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 opening and providing for the management of 
autonomous tariff quotas of the Union for certain agricultural and industrial 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 Commission1, 

Whereas: 

(1) 

(2) 

(3) 

(4) 

In order to ensure sufficient and uninterrupted supplies of certain goods insufficiently 
produced  in  the  Union  and  to  avoid  any  disturbances  on  the  market  for  certain 
agricultural  and  industrial  products,  autonomous  tariff  quotas  have  been  opened  by 
Council  Regulation  (EU)  No  7/20102.  Products  within  those  tariff  quotas  can  be 
imported at reduced or zero duty rates. For the same reasons it is necessary to open, 
with effect from 1 January 2012, for certain products new tariff quotas at a zero duty 
rate for an appropriate volume. 

The quota volume for autonomous tariff quotas with the order numbers 09.2624 and 
09.2640 are insufficient to meet the needs of the industry of the Union for the current 
quota period ending at 31 December 2011. Consequently, those quota volumes should 
be increased with effect from 1 July 2011. 

The  quota  volume  for  autonomous  tariff  quotas  with  the  order  numbers  09.2603, 
09.2629, 09.2632, 09.2816 and 09.2977 shall be replaced by the volumes shown in the 
Annex to this regulation. 

It is no longer in the interest of the Union to continue to grant tariff quotas in 2012 for 
certain products for which such quotas were established for 2011. Those quotas should 
therefore  be  closed  with  effect  from  1 January 2012  and  the  corresponding  products 
should be deleted from the list in the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 7/2010. 

(5) 

In  view  of  the  many  changes  to  be  made,  clarity  requires  to  replace  the  Annex  to 
Regulation (EU) No 7/10 in its entirety. 

(6) 

Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly.

Since the tariff quotas have to take effect from 1 January 2012, this Regulation should 
apply from the same date and enter into force immediately, 

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 

The Annex to Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 is replaced by the text set out in the Annex to this 
Regulation. 

Article 1 

Article 2

- the quota volume of the tariff quota for order number 09.2624 is fixed at 950 tonnes, 

- the quota volume of the tariff quota for order number 09.2640 is fixed at 11 000 tonnes. 

Article 3 

With  effect  from  1  January  2012,  the  volumes  for  the  tariff  quotas  with  order  numbers 
09.2603, 09.2629, 09.2632, 09.2816 and 09.2977 are increased as set out in the Annex to this 
Regulation. 

With effect from 1 January 2012, in the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 the rows for the 
tariff quotas with order numbers 09.2928 and 09.2929 are inserted. 

Article 4 

With effect from 1 January 2012, in the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 the rows for the 
tariff quotas with order numbers 09.2815, 09.2841 and 09.2992 are deleted. 

Article 5 

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of 
the European Union.
