COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 2110/85

of 25 July 1985

amending the list in the Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 2763/83 as regards arrangements for processing under customs control

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2763/83 of 26 September 1983 on arrangements permitting goods to be processed under customs control before being put into free circulation (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 630/85 (2), and in particular Article 2 (2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas certain processing operations which, before the entry into force of Regulation (EEC) No 2763/83, could be carried out on the basis of equivalent national arrangements, are not included in the Annex to the said Regulation; whereas the operations concerned involve the processing of certain petroleum products into products which may be given favourable tariff treatment within the meaning of Commission Regulations (EEC) No 1535/77 (3) and (EEC) No 1775/77 (4), and the processing of dichromium trioxide into chromium;

Whereas there exists an economic need for these kinds of processing operations to be allowed to continue under the arrangements for processing under customs control because the Community industry concerned has invested considerable sums in such operations; whereas, in the case of dichromium trioxide, it is necessary to ensure a sufficient supply of chromium for Community industry, notably the aircraft industry;

Whereas it is necessary to maintain the competitiveness of the industries concerned in relation to processing firms in non-member countries in order to avoid the danger of cessation of these economic activities within the Community;

Whereas a need has arisen, furthermore, to include under the arrangements for processing under customs control the usual forms of handling which may be carried out in a customs warehouse or a free zone, in accordance with Directive 71/235/EEC (5);

Whereas therefore the list in the Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 2763/83 should be supplemented by including in it the operations referred to in the temporary measures adopted by means of Commission Regulations (EEC) No 283/85 (6) and (EEC) No 630/85, which were valid for six months only;

Whereas it is also necessary to make certain clarifications to the abovementioned list,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
