Proposal for a REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL on trade in certain steel products between the European Union and the Republic of Kazakhstan (codification) /* COM/2015/0157 final - 2015/0082 (COD) */









EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
1.           In the context of a people’s
Europe, the Commission attaches great importance to simplifying and clarifying
the law of the Union so as to make it clearer and more accessible to citizens,
thus giving them new opportunities and the chance to make use of the specific
rights it gives them.
This aim cannot be achieved so long as numerous
provisions that have been amended several times, often quite substantially,
remain scattered, so that they must be sought partly in the original instrument
and partly in later amending ones. Considerable research work, comparing many
different instruments, is thus needed to identify the current rules.
For this reason a codification of rules that
have frequently been amended is also essential if the law is to be clear and
transparent.
2.           On 1 April 1987 the
Commission decided[1]
to instruct its staff that all acts should be codified after no more than ten
amendments, stressing that this is a minimum requirement and that departments
should endeavour to codify at even shorter intervals the texts for which they
are responsible, to ensure that their provisions are clear and readily
understandable.
3.           The Conclusions of the Presidency
of the Edinburgh European Council (December 1992) confirmed this[2], stressing the
importance of codification as it offers certainty as to the law applicable to a
given matter at a given time.
Codification must be undertaken in full
compliance with the normal procedure for the adoption of acts of the Union.
Given that no changes of substance may be made
to the instruments affected by codification, the European Parliament, the
Council and the Commission have agreed, by an interinstitutional agreement
dated 20 December 1994, that an accelerated procedure may be used for the
fast-track adoption of codification instruments.
4.           The purpose of this proposal is
to undertake a codification of Council Regulation (EC) No 1340/2008
of 8 December 2008 on trade in certain steel products between the European
Community and the Republic of Kazakhstan[3].
The new Regulation will supersede the various acts incorporated in it[4]; this proposal fully
preserves the content of the acts being codified and hence does no more than
bring them together with only such formal amendments as are required by the
codification exercise itself.
5.           The codification proposal was drawn up on the basis of
a preliminary consolidation, in 23 official languages, of Regulation
(EC) No 1340/2008 and the instruments amending it, carried out by the
Publications Office of the European Union, by means of a data-processing
system. Where the Articles have been given new numbers, the correlation between
the old and the new numbers is shown in a table set out in Annex VII to
the codified Regulation.

Proposal for a
REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT
AND OF THE COUNCIL
on trade in certain steel products between
the European Ö Union Õ and
the Republic of Kazakhstan (codification)
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL
OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty Ö on the Functioning of the European Union Õ, and in
particular Article Ö 207(2) Õ thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the
European Commission,
After transmission of the draft legislative
act to the national Parliaments,
Having regard to the opinion of the
European Economic and Social Committee[5],
Acting in accordance with the ordinary
legislative procedure,
Whereas:
ê 
(1)       Council Regulation (EC)
No 1340/2008[6]
has been substantially amended several times[7].
In the interests of clarity and rationality, that Regulation should be codified.
ê 1340/2008
recital 1 (adapted)
(2)       Article 17(1) of the
Partnership and Cooperation Agreement between the European Communities and
their Member States and the Republic of Kazakhstan[8] provides that trade in
certain steel products Ö is Õ to be subject
to a specific agreement on quantitative arrangements.
ê 1340/2008
recital 2 (adapted)
(3)       The Agreement between the
European Community and the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan on trade in
certain steel products[9]
concluded on 19 July 2005 expired on 31 December 2006.
ê 1340/2008
recital 3 (adapted)
(4)       Pending the signature and
entry into force of a new agreement or Kazakhstan’s accession to the World
Trade Organisation (WTO), quantitative limits starting in  Ö 2007 were
laid down by Council Regulation (EC) No 1870/2006[10], Council Regulation
(EC) No 1531/2007[11]
and Regulation (EC) No 1340/2008 Õ.

(7)       Products placed in a free
zone or imported under the arrangements governing customs warehouses, temporary
importation or inward processing (suspension system) should not be counted
against the Ö quantitative Õ limits
established for the products in question.
ê 1340/2008
recital 8 (adapted)
(8)       The effective application
of this Regulation Ö requires
the use Õ of a Ö Union Õ import licence
for the entry into free circulation in the Ö Union Õ of the
products in question.
ê 1340/2008
recital 9 (adapted)
(9)       In order to ensure that
the Ö applicable Õ quantitative
limits are not exceeded, it is necessary to Ö lay
down Õ a procedure
whereby the competent authorities of the Member States do not issue import
licences before obtaining confirmation from the Commission that appropriate
amounts remain available within the quantitative limit in question.
ê 38/2014
Art. 1 and Annex .7 (adapted)
(10)      In order to permit the
effective administration of certain restrictions, the power to adopt acts in
accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty should be delegated to the
Commission in respect of amendments to Annex V to Ö this Õ Regulation. It
is of particular importance that the Commission carry out appropriate
consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level. The
Commission, when preparing and drawing up delegated acts, should ensure a
simultaneous, timely and appropriate transmission of relevant documents to the
European Parliament and to the Council,

2. The products Ö referred
to in paragraph 1 Õ shall be
classified in product groups as set out in Annex I.
3. The classification of products listed in
Annex I shall be based on the Combined Nomenclature (CN) established by
Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87[12].
4. The origin of the products referred to
in paragraph 1 shall be determined in accordance with the rules in force
in the Ö Union Õ .
Article 2
1. The importation into the Ö Union Õ of the steel
products listed in Annex I originating in the Republic of Kazakhstan shall
be subject to the quantitative limits laid down in Annex V. The release
for free circulation in the Ö Union Õ of the
products Ö listed Õ in
Annex I originating in the Republic of Kazakhstan shall be subject to the
presentation of a certificate of origin, set out in Annex II, and of an
import licence issued by the Member States’ authorities in accordance with
Article 4.
2. In order to ensure that quantities for
which import licences are issued do not exceed at any moment the total
quantitative limits for each product group, the competent authorities listed in
Annex IV shall issue import licences only upon confirmation by the
Commission that there are still quantities available within the quantitative
limits for the relevant product group of steel products in respect of the
supplier country, for which an importer or importers have submitted
applications to the said authorities.
3. The authorised imports shall be counted
against the relevant quantitative limit Ö laid
down Õ in
Annex V. Ö The Õ shipment of
products shall be considered as having taken place on the date on which they
were loaded onto the exporting means of transport.
Article 3
1. The quantitative limits Ö laid
down Õ in
Annex V shall not apply to products placed in a free zone or free
warehouse or imported under the arrangements governing customs warehouses,
temporary importation or inward processing (suspension system).
2. Where the products referred to in
paragraph 1 are subsequently released for free circulation, either in the
unaltered state or after working or processing, Article 2(2) shall apply
and the products so released shall be counted against the relevant quantitative
limit Ö laid
down Õ in
Annex V.
Article 4
1. For the purpose of applying
Article 2(2), before issuing import licences, the competent authorities
listed in Annex IV shall notify the Commission of the amounts of the
requests for import licences, supported by original export licences, which they
have received. By return, the Commission shall notify whether the requested
amount(s) of quantities are available for importation in the chronological
order in which the notifications of the Member States are received (first-come,
first-served basis).
2. The requests included in the
notifications to the Commission shall be valid if they establish clearly in
each case the exporting country, the product code concerned, the amounts to be
imported, the number of the export licence, the quota year and the Member State
in which the products are intended to be put into free circulation.
3. As far as possible, the Commission shall
confirm to the Ö competent Õ authorities Ö listed in
Annex IV Õ the full
amount indicated in the requests notified for each group of products.
4. The competent authorities Ö listed in
Annex IV Õ shall notify
the Commission immediately after being informed of any quantity that is not used
during the duration of validity of the import licence. Such unused quantities
shall automatically be transferred into the remaining quantities of the total Ö Union Õ quantitative
limit for each product group.
5. The notifications referred to in
paragraphs 1 to 4 shall be communicated electronically within the
integrated network set up for this purpose, unless for imperative technical
reasons it is necessary to use other means of communication temporarily.
6. The import licences or equivalent
documents shall be issued in accordance with Articles 12 to 16.
7. The competent authorities of the Member
States shall notify the Commission of any cancellation of import licences or
equivalent documents already issued in cases where the corresponding export
licences have been withdrawn or cancelled by the competent authorities of the
Republic of Kazakhstan. However, if the Commission or the competent authorities
of a Member State have been informed by the competent authorities of the Republic
of Kazakhstan of the withdrawal or cancellation of an export licence after the
related products have been imported into the Ö Union Õ , the
quantities in question shall be set off against the relevant quantitative limit
Ö laid
down Õ in
Annex V.
Article 5
1. Where the Commission has indications
that products listed in Annex I originating in the Republic of Kazakhstan
have been transhipped, re-routed or otherwise imported into the Ö Union Õ through
circumvention of the quantitative limits referred to in Article 2 and that
there is a need for the necessary adjustments to be made, it shall request that
consultations be opened so that agreement may be reached on the necessary
adjustment of the corresponding quantitative limits to be made.
2. Pending the outcome of the consultations
referred to in paragraph 1, the Commission may ask the Republic of
Kazakhstan to take the necessary precautionary steps to ensure that adjustments
to the quantitative limits agreed following such consultations may be carried
out.
ê 38/2014
Art. 1 and Annex .7(1) (adapted)
3. Should the Union and the Republic of
Kazakhstan fail to arrive at a satisfactory solution and should the Commission
note that there is clear evidence of circumvention, the Commission shall be
empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 17 in order
to deduct from the quantitative limits an equivalent volume of products
originating in the Republic of Kazakhstan and to amend Annex V
accordingly.
Where a delay in action to address clear
evidence of circumvention in a sufficiently expedient way would cause damage
which would be difficult to repair, and therefore imperative grounds of urgency
so require, the procedure provided for in Article 18 shall apply to
delegated acts adopted pursuant to the first subparagraph.
ê 1340/2008
(adapted)
Article 6

figures or references.
9. The reverse of copy No 1 and copy
No 2 shall bear a box in which quantities may be entered, either by the
customs authorities when import formalities are completed, or by the competent
administrative authorities when an extract is issued. If the space set aside

authorities may attach one or more extension pages bearing boxes matching those
on the reverse of copy No 1 and copy No 2 of the licence or
extract. The debiting authorities shall place their stamp in such a way that
one half is on the licence or extract thereof and the other half is on the
extension page. If there is more than one extension page, a further stamp shall
be placed in like manner across each page and the preceding page.
