Having regard to the joint proposal of the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and of the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) Council Regulation (EU) No 267/2012 (2) gives effect to the measures provided for in Decision 2010/413/CFSP and provides for, inter alia, the freezing of all funds and economic resources belonging to, owned, held or controlled by the persons, entities and bodies listed in Annexes VIII and IX to that Regulation.
(2) On 10 October 2013, the Council adopted Decision 2013/497/CFSP (3) which amends Decision 2010/413/CFSP and provides for adjusted listing criteria to include persons and entities that have evaded or violated restrictive measures.
(3) That measure falls within the scope of the Treaty and regulatory action at the level of the Union is therefore necessary in order to implement it, in particular with a view to ensuring its uniform application by economic operators in all Member States.
(4) Regulation (EU) No 267/2012 should therefore be amended accordingly,
Article 23(2) of Regulation (EU) No 267/2012 is amended as follows:

"(b) being a natural or legal person, entity or body that has evaded or violated, or assisted a listed person, entity or body to evade or violate, the provisions of this Regulation, Council Decision 2010/413/CFSP or UNSCR 1737 (2006), UNSCR 1747 (2007), UNSCR 1803 (2008) and UNSCR 1929 (2010);".

COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 3679/85
of 20 December 1985
amending Regulation (EEC) No 950/68 on the Common Customs Tariff
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 113 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas the Community has bound the customs duty on television image and sound recorders and reproducers falling within subheading 92.11 B of the Common Customs Tariff at a rate of 8 %; whereas that binding is contained in the European Economic Community's schedule LXXII-EEC annexed to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT);
Whereas the Community has found it desirable to replace the present voluntary export restraints on television image and sound recorders and reproducers, which are due to expire on 31 December 1985, with an appropriate tariff measure, thereby providing adequate import protection consistent with the GATT; whereas the Community has accordingly invoked Article XXVIII of the GATT in order to modify its international commitment on the level of its customs duties for this product;
Whereas it has not been possible to reach agreement with the main supplier;
Whereas under Article XXVIII (3) (a) of the GATT, the Community is entitled, in the absence of agreement between the partners primarly concerned, to modify the concession in question; whereas the Community considers that it is necessary to proceed with the tariff modification proposed;
Whereas the tariff concession on those television image and sound recorders and reproducers using magnetic tapes of a width of 1,3 cm or less and allowing recording or reproduction at a speed of 50 mm per second or less should be raised from 8 % to 14 % from 1 January 1986;
Whereas, by way of compensation, the tariff concession on certain products falling within subheading 85.21 D II should be reduced from 17 % to 14 % and those on certain products falling within subheading 84.52 B, 85.15 A III and 92.11 A III should be reduced to zero from 1 January 1986;
Whereas, by way of compensation, account should also be taken of the consequences of the alignment of the tariffs of Spain and Portugal for products falling within subheadings 92.11 B, 85.21 D II, 84.52 B, 85.15 A III and 92.11 A III on the Common Customs Tariff as a consequence of their accession to the Community on 1 January 1986;
Whereas these amendments should therefore be made to the Common Customs Tariff annexed to Council Regulation (EEC) No 950/68 (1),
The Common Customs Tariff annexed to Regulation (EEC) No 950/68 is hereby amended as indicated in the Annex hereto.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 1986.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 3274/90
of 8 November 1990
amending Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff as regards the rate of duty applicable to gas oil falling under CN code ex 2710 00 69
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 28 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3116/90 (2), provides for a conventional duty rate of 5 % for gas oil falling under CN code 2710 00 69;
Whereas production in the Community of gas oil is insufficient; whereas, consequently, Community supplies of products of this type depend to a considerable extent on imports from third countries;
Whereas currently the autonomous duty rate on all gas oil has been suspended to 3,5 % for an indefinite period;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1054/90 (3) opened and provided for the administration of an autonomous tariff quota for gas oil of a sulphur content not exceeding 0,2 % by weight; whereas this quota expires on 31 December 1990 and should be replaced by a more permanent measure, in the form of a tariff suspension for an indefinite period,
Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 is amended as follows:
The footnote relating to CN code 2710 00 69 is replaced by the following text:
'Duty rate suspended for an indefinite period for gas oil having a sulphur content not exceeding 0,2 % by weight. For gas oil having a sulphur content greater than 0,2 % by weight the duty rate is reduced to 3,5 % (suspension) for an indefinite period.'
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 1991.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

1.   The quantities for which import licence applications have been lodged for the subperiod 1 July to 30 September 2008 under Regulation (EC) No 1384/2007 shall be multiplied by the allocation coefficients set out in the Annex to this Regulation.

(2) For the 2002/03 marketing year, the estimate of the overall loss recorded in accordance with Article 15(1) and (2) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 requires, in accordance with paragraphs 3 and 4 of that Article, the adoption of 2 % for the basic levy and 19,962 for the B levy.
(3) The overall loss recorded on the basis of known data and in accordance with Article 15(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 is covered in its entirety by the receipts from the basic production levy and the B levy.

(4) The Management Committee for Sugar has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,
The production levies in the sugar sector shall be as follows for the 2002/03 marketing year:
