Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 288/82 of 5 February 1982 on common rules for imports (1), and in particular Article 2 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas the common commercial policy is based on uniform principles; whereas the common rules for imports established by Regulation (EEC) No 288/82 constitute an important part of this policy; whereas the liberalization of imports, namely the absence of  all quantitative restrictions, subject to exceptions and derogations provided for in Community law, is the point of departure for such common rules;
Whereas quantitative restrictions on imports in the different Member States are set out in a list contained in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 288/82;
Whereas, for a number of such restrictions maintained by certain Member States, in particular in respect of Japan, the economic and commercial situation warrants their abolition in accordance with Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 288/82;
Whereas, in these circumstances Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 288/82 should be suitably amended,
The quantitative restrictions on products falling within the CN codes listed in the Annex to this Regulation are hereby deleted from Annex 1 to Regulation (EEC) No 288/82.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (1), and in particular Article 31(14) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 8 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006 of 17 August 2006 laying down special detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1255/1999 as regards export licences and export refunds in the case of milk and milk products (2) lays down the term of validity of export licences.
(2) As a precautionary measure, with a view to protect the Community budget from unnecessary expenditures and to avoid a speculative application of the export refund regime in the dairy sector, Commission Regulation (EC) No 210/2007 (3) provided for that, by way of derogation from Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006, the term of validity of export licences for milk products for which an application has been lodged from 1 March 2007 on should be limited to 30 June 2007.
(3) A close monitoring of both the internal and the world market has shown a longer validity period of the licences may be progressively re-established without any risk of destabilisation of the proper functioning of the common market organisation. It is therefore appropriate to modify Regulation (EC) No 210/2007.
(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2825/93 of 15 October 1993 laying down certain detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 as regards the fixing and granting of adjusted refunds in respect of cereals exported in the form of certain spirit drinks (1), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 3098/94 (2), and in particular Article 5 thereof,
Whereas Article 4(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2825/93 provides that the quantities of cereals eligible for the refund are to be the quantities placed under control and distilled, weighted by a coefficient to be fixed annually for each Member State concerned; whereas that coefficient expresses the ratio between the total quantities exported and the total quantities marketed of the spirituous beverage concerned on the basis of the trend noted in those quantities during the number of years corresponding to the average ageing period of the spirituous beverage in question; whereas, in view of the information provided by Ireland on the period 1 January to 31 December 1997, the average ageing period in 1997 was five years for Irish whiskey; whereas the coefficients for the period 1 July 1998 to 30 June 1999 should be fixed;
Whereas Article 10 of Protocol 3 to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (3) precludes the grant of refunds for exports to Liechtenstein, Iceland and Norway; whereas, therefore, pursuant to Article 7(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2825/93, account should be taken of this in the calculation of the coefficient for 1998/99;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
For the period 1 July 1998 to 30 June 1999, the coefficients provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 2825/93 applying to cereals used in Ireland for manufacturing Irish whiskey shall be as set out in the Annex.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply with effect from 1 July 1998.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
