COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 452/89

of 20 February 1989

establishing Community surveillance for certain agricultural products originating in Cyprus, Yugoslavia, Egypt, Jordan, Israel, Tunisia, Syria, Malta and Morocco which are subject to reference quantities (1989)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 451/89 of 20 February 1989 concerning the procedure to be applied to certain agricultural products originating in various Mediterranean third countries (1), and in particular Article 3 (2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas the Additional Protocols to the Cooperation Agreements between the European Economic Community and Cyprus (1), Yugoslavia (2), Egypt (3), Jordan (4), Israel (5), Tunisia (6), Syria (7), Malta and Morocco (8) have been concluded; whereas these Protocols provide for the progressive reduction, subject to reference quantities laid down within a set timetable, of the customs duties applicable to certain agricultural products originating in those countries and covered by the respective Agreements;

Whereas, by virtue of Article 3 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 451/89, a surveillance system is provided for the agricultural products in question; whereas it is appropriate therefore to submit the imports of products subject to reference quantities, shown in the Annex, to a system of surveillance for the year 1989; whereas, however, the agricultural products mentioned in Article 1 of the said Regulation are subject only to normal statistical surveillance;

Whereas, under the respective Agreements, when the rate of customs duty applied to imports into the Community of Ten of a product subject to a reference quantity is lower than that applying in respect of Spain, Portugal or both of these Member States, the process of dismantling begins once duty on imports of that product from Spain and Portugal falls below that applied to imports of the product in question from the other countries; whereas, for this reason, the Annex to this Regulation lists only products in respect of which tariff dismantling begins or continues in 1989;

Whereas the application of these arrangements requires that the Community be kept regularly informed of the progress of such imports originating in the countries in question; whereas this objective may be achieved by means of an administrative procedure whereby imports of the products in question are charged against the reference quantities at Community level within pre-established timetables, as and when the products are entered with the customs authorities for free circulation;

Whereas the said administrative procedure requires close and rapid cooperation between the Member States and the Commission, which must, in particular, be able to monitor the charging of amounts against the reference quantities and keep the Member States informed,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

1. Imports into the Community of certain products originating in Cyprus, Yugoslavia, Egypt, Jordan, Israel, Tunisia, Syria, Malta and Morocco for which reference quantities shall be set within pre-determined timetables shall be subject to Community surveillance.

2. Amounts shall be charged by Member States against the reference quantities as and when products are entered with customs authorities for free circulation, accompanied by a movement certificate conforming to the rules laid down in the Protocol concerning the definition of the concept of originating products annexed to each Agreement with the countries concerned.

Where the movement certificate is produced at a later date, the amount shall be charged against the corresponding reference quantity at the date of acceptance of the declaration of release for free circulation.

3. Member States shall forward to the Commission:

- not later than 15 July 1989, the final returns for the amounts charged against the reference quantities of the products bearing serial numbers 18.0010, 18.0040, 18.0140 or 18.0150,

- not later than 15 September 1989, the final return for the amounts charged against the reference quantities of the products bearing serial numbers 18.0015 and 18.0130,

- by 15 October 1989, and not later than the fifteenth day of each subsequent month, the returns for the cumulative amounts charged during the period 1 January to 30 September, and during the preceding month respectively, against the reference quantities of the products bearing serial numbers 18.0070, 18.0080, 18.0090, 18.0100, 18.0170, 18.0180, 18.0200 and 18.0220,

- by 15 November 1989, and not later than the fifteenth day of each subsequent month, the return for the cumulative amounts charged during the preceding month against the reference quantities of the products bearing serial number 18.0050.

The level of utilization of a reference quantity shall be determined at Community level on the basis of imports charged against it in the manner described in this paragraph.
