COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 1634/92  of 24 June 1992  reintroducing the levying of the customs duties applicable to products falling within CN code 2929 90 00, originating in Brazil, to which the preferential tariff arrangements of Council  Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90 apply
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 certain industrial products originating in developing countries (1), extended for 1992 by Regulation (EEC) No 3587/91  (2), and in particular Article 9 thereof,
Whereas, pursuant to Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90, customs duties on certain products originating in each of the countries or territories listed in Annex III are totally suspended for 1992, and the products as such are, as a general rule,  subject to statistical surveillance every three months on the reference base referred to in Article 8;
Whereas, as provided for in Article 8, where the increase of preferential imports of these products, originating in one or more beneficiary countries, causes or threatens to cause economic difficulties in the Community or a region of the Community, the  levying of customs duties may be reintroduced, once the Commission has had an appropriate exchange of information with the Member States; whereas for this purpose the reference base to be considered is equal, as a general rule, to 6,615 % of the total  importations into the Community, originating from third countries in 1988;
Whereas, in the case of the products falling within CN code 2929 90 00, originating in Brazil, the reference base is fixed at ECU 628 000; whereas that reference base was reached on 18 March 1992 by charges of imports into the Community of the products  in question originating in Brazil; whereas the exchange of information organized by the Commission has demonstrated that continuance of the preference threatens to cause economic difficulties in a region of the Community; whereas, therefore, customs  duties for the products in question must be reintroduced with regard to Brazil,
