natgillin/translations-raw huggingface dataset:
For all other companies, the amount of the definitive anti-dumping duty shall be the difference between the minimum import price fixed in paragraph 4 and the net free at Community frontier price, before duty, if the latter is lower than the former.
Za vse druge družbe znesek dokončne protidampinške dajatve ustreza razliki med minimalno uvozno ceno, določeno v četrtem odstavku, in neto ceno franko meja Skupnosti pred plačilom dajatve, če je slednja nižja od prve.
No duty shall be collected where the net free-at-Community-frontier price is equal to or higher than the corresponding minimum import price fixed in paragraph 4.
Kadar je neto cena franko meja Skupnosti enaka ali višja od ustrezne minimalne uvozne cene, določene v četrtem odstavku, se dajatev ne pobere.
For the purpose of paragraph 3, the minimum import price set out in column 2 in the table below shall apply.
Za namen tretjega odstavka se uporabi minimalna uvozna cena, določena v drugem stolpcu spodnje preglednice.
Where it is found, following post-importation verification, that the net free-at-Community-frontier price actually paid by the first independent customer in the Community (post-importation price) is below the net free-at-Community-frontier price, before duty, as resulting from the customs declaration, and the post-importation price is lower than the minimum import price, the fixed anti-dumping duty set out as appropriate in column 3 or 4 of the table below shall apply, unless the application of the fixed duty set out as appropriate in column 3 or 4 plus the post-importation price lead to an amount (price actually paid plus fixed duty) which remains below the minimum import price set out in column 2 in the table below.
Kadar se po preverjanju, opravljenem po uvozu, ugotovi, da je neto cena franko meja Skupnosti, ki jo je dejansko plačal prvi neodvisni kupec v Skupnosti (cena po uvozu), nižja od neto cene franko meja Skupnosti pred plačilom dajatve, kakor izhaja iz carinske deklaracije, in je cena po uvozu nižja od minimalne uvozne cene, se uporabi fiksna protidampinška dajatev, ustrezno določena v tretjem oziroma četrtem stolpcu spodnje preglednice, razen v primeru, ko je zaradi uporabe fiksne protidampinške dajatve, določene v tretjem oziroma četrtem stolpcu, in cene po uvozu znesek (dejansko plačana cena plus fiksna dajatev) še naprej nižji od minimalne uvozne cene, določene v drugem stolpcu spodnje preglednice.

Besedilo, sprejeto na zasedanju z dne 12. oktobra 2006, začasna izdaja, del 2, P-6 TA PROV(2006) 10–12, PE 378/421, str. 69.
For activity related to strawberries only.
Samo za dejavnosti, povezane s predelavo jagod.
It has been analysed whether, in light of the comments and additional elements provided by interested parties following the imposition of provisional measures, the provisional conclusion that the imposition of measures was not contrary to the Community interest remained valid.
Glede na pripombe in dodatne navedbe, ki so jih po uvedbi začasnih ukrepov predložile zainteresirane stranke, je bilo proučeno, ali začasni sklep, tj., da uvedba ukrepov ni bila v nasprotju z interesom Skupnosti, še velja.
As at the provisional stage, the determination of the Community interest was based on an appreciation of all the different interests involved, i.e. those of the Community industry, importers, processors/users and farmers.
Tako kot v začasni fazi so bili pri določitvi interesa Skupnosti upoštevani vsi različni interesi, tj. interesi industrije Skupnosti, uvoznikov, predelovalcev/uporabnikov in pridelovalcev.
Should prices of frozen strawberries again drop to below the non-injurious level the consequences would be twofold. Community industry would suffer financial losses but would also risk running out of supply of fresh strawberries in the long term since the prices they would be able to pay the farmers would be so low that farmers would risk going out of business.
Če bi cene zamrznjenih jagod ponovno padle pod neškodljivo raven, bi se zgodilo naslednje: industrija Skupnosti bi utrpela finančne izgube in bi dolgoročno tvegala izgubo dobave svežih jagod, saj bi bile cene, ki bi jih lahko plačali pridelovalcem, tako nizke, da bi obstajalo tveganje za opustitev proizvodnje pridelovalcev.
Commission Regulation (EC) No 408/2007
Uredba Komisije (ES) št. 408/2007
This Regulation shall enter into force on 17 April 2007.
Ta uredba začne veljati 17. aprila 2007.
to Commission Regulation of 16 April 2007 establishing the standard import values for determining the entry price of certain fruit and vegetables

Commission Regulation (EC) No 409/2007
Uredba Komisije (ES) št. 409/2007
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 of 25 April 2005 establishing additional customs duties on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America [1], and in particular Article 3 thereof,
ob upoštevanju Uredbe Sveta (ES) št. 673/2005 z dne 25. aprila 2005 o vzpostavitvi dodatnih carin za uvoz nekaterih izdelkov s poreklom iz Združenih držav Amerike [1] in zlasti člena 3 Uredbe,
As a result of the United States’ failure to bring the Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA) in compliance with its obligations under the WTO agreements, Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 imposed a 15 % ad valorem additional customs duty on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America as from 1 May 2005.
Ker Združene države Amerike niso uskladile Zakona o trajnem dampingu in izravnavi s subvencijami („Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act“ – CDSOA) s svojimi obveznostmi iz sporazumov STO, je bila z Uredbo (ES) št. 673/2005 s 1. majem 2005 uvedena dodatna carina ad valorem v višini 15 % za uvoz nekaterih izdelkov s poreklom iz Združenih držav Amerike.
The CDSOA disbursements for the most recent year for which data are available relate to the distribution of anti-dumping and countervailing duties collected during the Fiscal Year 2006 (1 October 2005-30 September 2006).
Plačila CDSOA za zadnje leto, za katero so podatki na voljo, se nanašajo na razdelitev protidampinških in izravnalnih dajatev, pobranih v proračunskem letu 2006 (od 1. oktobra 2005 do 30. septembra 2006).
On the basis of the data published by the United States’ Customs and Border Protection, the level of nullification or impairment caused to the Community is calculated at USD 81.19 million.
Na podlagi podatkov, ki jih je objavila Carinska in mejna zaščita Združenih držav, je obseg razveljavitev ali omejitev, povzročenih Skupnosti, preračunan na 81,19 milijona USD.
Since the level of nullification or impairment and consequently of suspension has increased, the first 32 products of the list in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 632/2006 should be added to the list in Annex I to that Regulation.
Ker se je raven razveljavitve ali omejitve in posledično začasnega preklica zvišala, je treba prvih 32 izdelkov s seznama iz Priloge II k Uredbi (ES) št. 673/2005, kakor je bila spremenjena z Uredbo Komisije (ES) št. 632/2006, dodati seznamu iz Priloge I k navedeni uredbi.
The effect of a 15 % ad valorem additional import duty on imports from the United States of the products in the amended Annex I represents, over one year, a value of trade that does not exceed USD 81.19 million.
Učinek dodatne uvozne dajatve ad valorem v višini 15 % za uvoz izdelkov iz spremenjene Priloge I iz Združenih držav predstavlja v času enega leta vrednost trgovine, nižjo od 81,19 milijona USD.
Articles 6(1) and 6(2) of Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 contain specific exemptions from the additional import duty.
Člen 6(1) in 6(2) Uredbe (ES) št. 673/2005 navaja posebne izjeme, za katere dodatna uvozna dajatev ne velja.
Since the applicability of those exemptions is dependent on certain conditions being met before the entry into force or on the date of application of Regulation (EC) No 673/2005, the exemptions cannot in practice apply for imports of the 32 products now added to the list in Annex I. Specific provisions should therefore be adopted to make these exemptions effective for imports of those products.
Ker je uporaba omenjenih izjem odvisna od nekaterih pogojev, ki jih je treba izpolniti pred začetkom veljavnosti ali na datum začetka uporabe Uredbe (ES) št. 673/2005, se izjeme dejansko ne morejo uporabljati za uvoz 32 izdelkov, ki so zdaj dodani seznamu iz Priloge I. Zato je treba sprejeti posebne določbe, da bodo te izjeme veljale za uvoz navedenih izdelkov.
To avoid circumvention of the additional duty, this Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication.
Za preprečitev izogibanja dodatni dajatvi mora ta uredba začeti veljati na dan objave.
Products for which an import licence with an exemption from, or a reduction of duty, was issued before the date of entry into force of this Regulation shall not be subject to the additional duty provided they are classified under one of the following CN codes [2]: 48030031, 48183000, 48182010, 94037090, 61109010, 61101910, 61101990, 61101210, 61101110, 61103010, 61101290, 61102010, 61101130, 61101190, 61109090, 61103091, 61103099, 61102099, 61102091, 96081010, 64021900, 64041100, 64031900, 61052090, 61052010, 61061000, 62064000, 62053000, 62063000, 61051000, 62052000 and 94060011.
Za izdelke, za katere je bilo izdano uvozno dovoljenje z oprostitvijo ali znižanjem dajatve pred dnevom začetka veljavnosti te uredbe, se dodatne dajatve ne plačujejo, če so uvrščeni pod katero od naslednjih oznak KN [2]: 48030031, 48183000, 48182010, 94037090, 61109010, 61101910, 61101990, 61101210, 61101110, 61103010, 61101290, 61102010, 61101130, 61101190, 61109090, 61103091, 61103099, 61102099, 61102091, 96081010, 64021900, 64041100, 64031900, 61052090, 61052010, 61061000, 62064000, 62053000, 62063000, 61051000, 62052000 in 94060011.
Products for which it can be demonstrated that they are already en route to the Community on the date of application of this Regulation, and whose destination cannot be changed, shall not be subject to the additional duty provided they are classified under one of the following CN codes [3]: 48030031, 48183000, 48182010, 94037090, 61109010, 61101910, 61101990, 61101210, 61101110, 61103010, 61101290, 61102010, 61101130, 61101190, 61109090, 61103091, 61103099, 61102099, 61102091, 96081010, 64021900, 64041100, 64031900, 61052090, 61052010, 61061000, 62064000, 62053000, 62063000, 61051000, 62052000 and 94060011.
Za izdelke, za katere se lahko dokaže, da so bili na dan začetka uporabe te uredbe že na poti v Skupnost, in pri katerih namembnega kraja ni mogoče spremeniti, se dodatne dajatve ne plačujejo, če so uvrščeni pod katero od naslednjih oznak KN [3]: 48030031, 48183000, 48182010, 94037090, 61109010, 61101910, 61101990, 61101210, 61101110, 61103010, 61101290, 61102010, 61101130, 61101190, 61109090, 61103091, 61103099, 61102099, 61102091, 96081010, 64021900, 64041100, 64031900, 61052090, 61052010, 61061000, 62064000, 62053000, 62063000, 61051000, 62052000 in 94060011.
It shall apply from 1 May 2007.

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 of 29 September 2003 establishing common rules for direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers and amending Regulations (EEC) No 2019/93, (EC) No 1452/2001, (EC) No 1453/2001, (EC) No 1454/2001, (EC) No 1868/94, (EC) No 1251/1999, (EC) No 1254/1999, (EC) No 1673/2000, (EEC) No 2358/71 and (EC) No 2529/2001 [1], and in particular Article 145 (c), (d) and (d)c) thereof,
ob upoštevanju Uredbe Sveta (ES) št. 1782/2003 z dne 29. septembra 2003 o skupnih pravilih za sheme neposrednih podpor v okviru skupne kmetijske politike in o uvedbi nekaterih shem podpor za kmete ter o spremembi uredb (EGS) št. 2019/93, (ES) št. 1452/2001, (ES) št. 1453/2001, (ES) št. 1454/2001, (ES) 1868/94, (ES) št. 1251/1999, (ES) št. 1254/1999, (ES) št. 1673/2000, (EGS) št. 2358/71 in (ES) št. 2529/2001 [1] ter zlasti člena 145(c), (d) in (d) (c) Uredbe,
Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 as amended by Regulation (EC) No 2013/2006 defines the rules for the de-coupled support and the integration of the support for bananas into the single payment scheme.
Uredba (ES) št. 1782/2003, kakor je bila spremenjena z Uredbo (ES) št. 2013/2006, opredeljuje pravila za nevezano podporo in za vključitev podpore za banane v shemo enotnega plačila.
Those detailed rules should follow the same lines as those already laid down in Regulation (EC) No 795/2004 with regard to olive oil, tobacco, cotton, hops, sugar beet, cane and chicory.
Navedena podrobna pravila morajo slediti istim smernicam, kot so navedene v Uredbi (ES) št. 795/2004 glede oljčnega olja, tobaka, bombaža, hmelja, sladkorne pese, sladkornega trsa in cikorije.
In accordance with Article 70(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003, Spain, France and Portugal decided to exclude direct payments granted to farmers in the outermost regions from the single payment scheme.
V skladu s členom 70(1)(b) Uredbe (ES) št. 1782/2003 so se Španija, Francija in Portugalska odločile, da iz sheme enotnega plačila izključijo neposredna plačila, ki se dodelijo kmetom v najbolj oddaljenih regijah.
Consequently the rules for the integration of banana support into the single payment scheme do not apply to such regions.
Zato se pravila za vključitev podpore za banane v shemo enotnega plačila za te regije ne uporabljajo.
Those provisions need to be adapted in order to take into account the special situation of farmers in the banana sector who made such investments or entered into such long-term lease-contracts before the entry into force of Regulation (EC) No 2013/2006.
Navedene določbe je treba prilagoditi, da se upošteva poseben položaj kmetov v sektorju banan, ki so izvedli take naložbe ali so sklenili take dolgotrajne zakupne pogodbe pred začetkom veljavnosti Uredbe Sveta (ES) št. 2013/2006.
The integration of the banana reference amounts into the single payment scheme was decided by Regulation (EC) No 2013/2006.
Vključitev referenčnih zneskov za banane v shemo enotnega plačila je bila določena z Uredbo (ES) št. 2013/2006.
Member States therefore only have very short time-limits to take the necessary steps to comply with that integration.
Države članice imajo za uskladitev z navedeno vključitvijo zato zelo kratke roke.
Measures should be taken to ensure a smooth transition from the previous banana compensatory aid scheme to the integration into the single payment scheme.
Treba je sprejeti ukrepe, da se zagotovi nemoten prehod s prejšnje sheme kompenzacijske pomoči za banane na vključitev v shemo enotnega plačila.
In particular, it should be ensured that farmers may make use of their rights within reasonable time-limits.
Zlasti je treba zagotoviti, da lahko kmetje izkoristijo svoje pravice v razumnih rokih.
Rules need to be established to clarify how Member States who already applied the single payment scheme in 2005 and 2006 have to proceed with regard to the integration of the reference amount for bananas into the replenishment of the national reserve.
Treba je določiti pravila za razjasnitev, kako morajo glede vključitve referenčnega zneska za banane v vzdrževanje nacionalne rezerve ravnati države članice, ki so že v letih 2005 in 2006 vložile zahtevke za shemo enotnega plačila.
The specific rules provided for in Articles 48c and 48d of Regulation (EC) No 795/2004 need to be adapted to include the banana sector in the single payment scheme.
Posebna pravila iz členov 48c in 48d Uredbe (ES) št. 795/2004 morajo biti prilagojena tako, da se sektor banan vključi v shemo enotnega plačila.
Regulation (EC) No 795/2004 should therefore be amended accordingly.
Uredbo (ES) št. 795/2004 je zato treba spremeniti.
In paragraph 1, the following subparagraph is added:
V odstavku 1 se doda naslednji pododstavek:
‘For the investments in the banana sector the date referred to in the first subparagraph shall be 1 January 2007.’
„Za naložbe v sektorju banan je datum iz prvega pododstavka 1. januar 2007.“
In paragraph 4, the following subparagraph is added:
V odstavku 4 se doda naslednji pododstavek:
‘For the long-term leases in the banana sector the date referred to in the first subparagraph shall be 1 January 2007.’
„Za dolgoročne zakupe v sektorju banan je datum iz prvega pododstavka 1. januar 2007.“
