                                       C0M(92) 59   final
                                       Brussels, 24  February 1992
                           Proposal for a
                     COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC)
         amending Regulation (EEC) No 206/91 concerning the
   exclusion of milk products from inward processing arrangements
         and of recourse to certain usual forms of handling
                   (presented by the Commission)
 ---pagebreak---                              EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
Council Regulation (EEC) No 206/91 provides for exemptions from the exclusion of
milk products, in particular for unmodified whey, from inward processing
arrangements. A limited enlargement of the CN codes, defining the eligible
compensating products, in order to include certain modified wheys as well, will
make it possible to extend the range of ingredients which the Community food
industry needs for its exports.
It is necessary to ensure the normal and uninterrupted operation of the inward
processing arrangements applicable under Regulation (EEC) No 206/91 before
1 January 1992 and to avoid any uncertainty about the continuation of these
arrangements arising from the technical adjustments carried out on that date by
Regulation (EEC) No 252/92 to certain CN codes listed in Article 1(2) of
Regulation (EEC) No 206/91.

Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 206/9l( 3 ), as last amended by Regulation
(EC) No 252/92(*), provides for exemptions from the exclusion of milk products
from inward processing arrangements, notably for unmodified whey;

compensating products resulting from the processing of unmodified whey imported
under inward processing arrangements should be satisfied;

products, in order to include certain modified wheys as well, will make it
possible to extend the range of ingredients which the Community food industry
needs for its exports;

inward processing arrangements applicable under Regulation (EEC) No 2 06/91 before
1 January 1992 and to avoid any uncertainty about the continuation of these
arrangements arising from the technical adjustments carried out on that date by
