COUNCIL REGULATION amending Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 temporarily suspending the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on certain industrial, agricultural and fishery products 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  /* COM/2011/0270 final - NLE 2011/0121 */  

	EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM1. 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 Products for which suspension is no longer in the Union's economic interests have been withdrawn.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 contextIt 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 proposalCouncil Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 temporarily suspending the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on certain industrial and agricultural products as last modified by Council Regulation (EU) No 1265/2010[1].-  Consistency with other policies and objectives of the UnionThe 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 partiesThe 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 expertiseThere was no need for external expertise.-  Impact assessmentThis 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.3. LEGAL ELEMENTS OF THE PROPOSAL-  Summary of the proposed actionProposal for a Council Regulation amending Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 temporarily suspending the autonomous CCT duties on certain industrial and agricultural products.-  Legal basisThe legal basis of this regulation proposal is Article 31 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.-  Subsidiarity principleThe subsidiarity principle does not apply, as the proposal falls under the exclusive competence of the Union.-  Proportionality principleThe 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 instrumentsProposed instrument: RegulationOther 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. BUDGETARY IMPLICATIONUncollected customs duties with a total amount of 35 031 000 €/year.5. ANNEXESIn Annex I to the proposed regulation new duty suspensions are listed.In Annex II the deletions are listed.  2011/0121 (NLE)Proposal for aCOUNCIL REGULATIONamending Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 temporarily suspending the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on certain industrial, agricultural and fishery productsTHE 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.  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 1255/96[3].2.  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.3.  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.4.  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.5.  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.6.  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.7.  Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 should therefore be amended accordingly.8.  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,HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:Article 1The Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 is amended as follows:9.  the rows for the products listed in Annex I to this Regulation are inserted;10.  the rows for the products for which the CN and TARIC codes are set out in Annex II to this Regulation are deleted.Article 2This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union .It shall apply from 1 July 2011.This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.Done at Brussels,For the CouncilThe PresidentANNEX

ANTI-FRAUD MEASURESChecks on the end-use of some of the products covered by this Council Regulation will be carried out in accordance with Articles 291 to 300 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93.5. OTHER REMARKSIn 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. new requests for suspension which have been presented and accepted;2. technical product developments and economic trends on the market resulting in the lifting of certain existing suspensions.AdditionThis 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 operationTaking 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.[1] OJ L 347, 31.12.2010, p. 9.[2] OJ C 128, 25.4.1998, p. 2.[3] OJ L 158, 29.6.1996, p. 1.[4] Regarding traditional own resources (agricultural duties, sugar levies, customs duties) the amounts indicated must be net amounts, i.e. gross amounts after deduction of 25 % of collection costs
