COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 2720/92  of 18 September 1992  ending the charges against the tariff ceilings opened for 1992, in the framework of generalized tariff preferences, by Council Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90 in respect of certain  industrial products originating in the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90 of 20 December 1990 applying generalized tariff preferences for 1991 in respect of industrial products originating in developing countries (1), extented into 1992 by Regulation (EEC) No 3587/91 (2),  and in particular the second paragraph of Article 9 thereof,
Whereas, pursuant to Articles 1 and 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90 suspension of customs duties in the context of preferential tariff ceilings is granted for 1992 within the limits of the individual ceilings set out in column 6 of Annex I to that  Regulation in respect of each of the products or group of products under consideration; whereas, as provided for in the second paragraph of Article 9 of the said Regulation, the Commission may take measures to stop quantities being charged against any  particular preferential tariff limit if these limits were exceeded particularly as a result of regularizations of imports actually made during the preferential tariff period;
Whereas, by virtue of Article 1 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1509/92 (3), the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic was withdrawn from the list of beneficiaries in Annex III of Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90 as from 1 March 1992; whereas the preferential  tariff period for that country consequently ended on 29 February 1992;
Whereas, in respect of the products of the order No 3102 40 and 3904 originating in the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic, the relevant ceilings were fixed respectively at ECU 2 541 000 and 5 513 000; whereas, on respectively 25 February and 7 April  1992, the sum of the quantities charged during the 1992 preferential period has exceeded the ceilings in question;
Whereas it appears desirable to take measures to stop quantities being charged against the said ceilings in respect of the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic for the abovementioned products,
