repealing Regulation (EC) No 72/2005 suspending the preferential customs duties and re-establishing the Common Customs Tariff duty on imports of uniflorous (bloom) carnations originating in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Whereas:
(1) Following Council Decision 2005/4/EC of 22 December 2004 on the conclusion of the Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters between the European Community and the Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) for the benefit of the Palestinian Authority of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip concerning reciprocal liberalisation measures and the replacement of Protocols 1 and 2 to the EC-Palestinian Authority Interim Association Agreement (2), it is no longer necessary, since 1 January 2005, to set minimum entry prices for roses and carnations imported from the West Bank and the Gaza Strip since the scheme of preferential customs duties will apply to all imports within the quota ceiling.
(2) None the less, these prices were calculated, and the calculations led to the adoption of Commission Regulation (EC) No 72/2005 (3).
(3) It is therefore necessary to re-establish the preferential customs duties introduced by Council Regulation (EC) No 747/2001 of 9 April 2001 providing for the management of Community tariff quotas and of reference quantities for products eligible for preferences by virtue of agreements with certain Mediterranean countries and repealing Regulations (EC) No 1981/94 and (EC) No 934/95 (4).
(4) Regulation (EC) No 72/2005 should therefore be repealed with effect from its date of entry into force, since the customs duties collected under this Regulation can be reimbursed under Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 of 12 October 1992 establishing the Community Customs Code (5) and Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 of 2 July 1993 laying down provisions for the implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code (6).
(5) The Commission must take these measures in between the meetings of the Management Committee for Live Plants,
