Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 of 22 December 1995 on the common organisation of the market in rice(1), and in particular Article 13(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) An invitation to tender for the export refund on rice was issued pursuant to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1875/2003(2).
(2) Article 5 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 584/75(3) allows the Commission to fix, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 22 of Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 and on the basis of the tenders submitted, a maximum export refund.

The maximum export refund on wholly milled round grain rice to be exported to certain third countries pursuant to the invitation to tender issued in Regulation (EC) No 1875/2003 is hereby fixed on the basis of the tenders submitted from 16 to 19 February 2004 at 118,00 EUR/t.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 344/2007
of 29 March 2007
fixing the export refunds on syrups and certain other sugar products exported without further processing
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 of 20 February 2006 on the common organisation of the market in the sugar sector (1), and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 33(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 32 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 provides that the difference between prices on the world market for the products listed in Article 1(1)(c), (d) and (g) of that Regulation and prices for those products on the Community market may be covered by an export refund.
(2) Given the present situation on the sugar market, export refunds should therefore be fixed in accordance with the rules and certain criteria provided for in Articles 32 and 33 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006.
(3) The first subparagraph of Article 33(2) of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 provides that the world market situation or the specific requirements of certain markets may make it necessary to vary the refund according to destination.
(4) Refunds should be granted only on products that are allowed to move freely in the Community and that comply with the requirements of Commission Regulation (EC) No 951/2006 of 30 June 2006 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 as regards trade with third countries in the sugar sector (2).
(5) Export refunds may be set to cover the competitive gap between Community and third country's exports. Community exports to certain close destinations and to third countries granting Community products a preferential import treatment are currently in a particular favourable competitive position. Therefore, refunds for exports to those destinations should be abolished.
(6) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
1.   Export refunds as provided for in Article 32 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 shall be granted on the products and for the amounts set out in the Annex to this Regulation subject to the conditions provided for in paragraph 2 of this Article.

(a) natural persons who are nationals of a country or territory listed in the Annex to this Decision or who have their habitual residence in the territory of one of those countries or territories shall be treated as if they were nationals of a Member State;

A.   PREVIOUS PROCEDURE
(1) By Regulation (EC) No 348/2000 (2), the Council imposed definitive anti-dumping duties on imports into the Community of certain seamless pipes and tubes of iron or non-alloy steel originating in Croatia and Ukraine. By Decision 2000/137/EC (3), the Commission accepted undertakings offered by exporters originating in Croatia and Ukraine. By Decision 2002/669/EC, the Commission accepted the voluntary withdrawal of the joint undertaking of the Ukrainian producers.
(2) Further to a request lodged by the Defence Committee of the Seamless Steel Tube Industry of the European Union, the Commission initiated an interim review of the anti-dumping measures in force, including the form of the measure, in accordance with Article 11(3) of the basic Regulation (4).
B.   WITHDRAWAL OF THE ACCEPTANCE OF AN UNDERTAKING
(3) The Council, by Regulation (EC) No 258/2005 (5), concluded the review.
(4) As set out in recital (137) of Regulation (EC) No 258/2005, and after having consulted all interested parties concerned, the undertaking in its current form is not appropriate anymore. On this basis, and also in accordance with the relevant clauses of the undertaking in question, which authorises the Commission to withdraw the acceptance of the undertaking unilaterally, the Commission has concluded to withdraw the acceptance of the undertaking.
(5) The Commission informed the Croatian company Mechel Željezara Ltd. in December 2004 that it proposed to withdraw the acceptance of the current undertaking. Subsequent to the disclosure, the Croatian government informed the Commission that the company, being the sole producer of the product concerned in Croatia, has been liquidated and ceased production in autumn 2004. Therefore, in addition, the undertaking is considered as being no longer valid.
C.   REPEAL OF DECISION 2000/137/EC
(6) In view of the above, Commission Decision 2000/137/EC, as amended by Commission Decision 2002/669/EC, should be repealed.
(7) In parallel to this Decision, the Council, by Regulation (EC) No 258/2005 has imposed a definitive country-wide anti-dumping duty on imports into the Community of certain seamless pipes and tubes of iron or non-alloy steel originating in Croatia,
Commission Decision 2000/137/EC, as amended by Commission Decision 2002/669/EC, is hereby repealed.
This Decision shall take effect on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
