Proposal for a COUNCIL REGULATION opening and providing for the management of autonomous tariff quotas of the Union for certain agricultural and industrial products and repealing Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 /* COM/2013/0775 final - 2013/0383 (NLE) */









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. In view of the numerous amendments
made to this Regulation and the transparency policy of the Commission the
Regulation should be replaced by this proposal.
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
WITH 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
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 2011 concerning autonomous
tariff suspensions and quotas (C 363, 13.12.2011, p.6).
4.           BUDGETARY IMPLICATION 
Uncollected
customs duties with a total amount of € -64 900 000.
2013/0383 (NLE)
Proposal for a
COUNCIL REGULATION
opening and providing for the management
of autonomous tariff quotas of the Union for certain agricultural and
industrial products and repealing Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 
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)       Production
in the Union of certain agricultural and industrial products is insufficient to
meet the specific requirements of the user industries in the Union.
Consequently Union supplies of those products depend to a considerable extent
on imports from third countries. The most urgent Union requirements for the products
in question should be met immediately on the most favorable terms. Union tariff
quotas at preferential duty rates should therefore be opened within the limits
of appropriate volumes taking account of the need not to disturb the markets
for such products or impede the establishment or development of Union
production.
(2)       It is
necessary, to ensure for all Union importers equal and uninterrupted access to
those quotas and to ensure the uninterrupted application of the rates laid down
for the quotas to all imports of the products concerned into all Member States
until the quotas have been exhausted.
(3)       Commission Regulation
(EEC) No 2454/93[1]
provides for a system of tariff quota management which ensures equal and
uninterrupted access to the quotas and uninterrupted application of the rates
and follows the chronological order of dates of acceptance of declarations of
release for free circulation. The tariff quotas opened by this Regulation
should therefore be managed by the Commission and the Member States in accordance with that system. 
(4)       The quota volumes are
mostly expressed in tonnes. For certain products for which an autonomous tariff
quota is opened the quota volume is set out in another measurement unit. Where
for those products no supplementary measurement unit is specified in the
Combined Nomenclature laid down in Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No
2658/87[2]
there can be uncertainty in respect of the measurement unit used. For the sake
of clarity and in the interest of a better quota management it is therefore
necessary to provide that, in order to benefit from those autonomous tariff
quotas, the exact quantity of the products imported be entered in the
declaration for release for free circulation using the measurement unit of the
quota volume set out for those products in the Annex to this Regulation.
(5)       Council Regulation (EU)
No 7/2010[3]
has been amended many times. In the interest of transparemcy and in order to
facilitate economic operators to follow the goods subject to autonomous tariff quotas,
it is considered appropriate to replace Regulation (EU) No 7/2010 in its
entirety. 
(6)       In accordance with the
principle of proportionality, it is necessary and appropriate for the
achievement of the basic objective of promoting trade between Member States and third countries to lay down rules in order to balance the commercial interest
of economic operators in the Union without changing the Union’s Word Trade Orgniation
(WTO) schedule. This Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in
order to achieve the objectives pursued in accordance with Article 5(4) of the
Treaty on European Union.
(7)       Since the tariff quotas
have to take effect from 1 January 2014, this Regulation should apply from the
same date and enter into force immediately,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
For the products listed in the Annex
autonomous tariff quotas of the Union shall be opened within which the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties shall
be suspended for the periods, at the duty rates, and up to the volumes
indicated therein.
Article 2
The tariff quotas referred to in Article 1
shall be managed by the Commission in accordance with Articles 308a, 308b and
308c of Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93.
Article 3
Where a declaration for release for free
circulation is presented for a product mentioned in this Regulation, for which
the quota volume is expressed in a measurement unit other than the weight in
tonnes or kilogram and than the value, for products for which no supplementary
unit is set out in the Combined Nomenclature laid down in Annex I to Regulation
(EEC) No 2658/87, the exact quantity of the products imported shall be entered
in “Box 41: Supplementary units” of that declaration using the measurement unit
of the quota volume for those products as set out in the Annex to this
Regulation.
Article 4
This Regulation shall enter into force on
the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 January 2014.
This Regulation shall be binding
in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
