COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 2978/91 of 7 October 1991 abolishing certain quantitative restrictions and amending Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 288/82

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 288/82 of 5 February 1982 on common rules for imports (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 371/91 (2), and in particular Article 2,

Having regard to the proposal fom 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;

Whereas, in these circumstances Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 288/82 should be suitably amended,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The quantitative restrictions on products falling within the CN codes listed respectively in Annexes A, B and C to this Regulation are hereby deleted from Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 288/82.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
