Council Regulation (EC) No 3290/94

of 22 December 1994

on the adjustments and transitional arrangements required in the agriculture sector in order to implement the agreements concluded during the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in beef and veal(1), and in particular Article 7 (2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament(2),

Whereas the Community has adopted a set of rules governing the common agricultural policy;

Whereas, under the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations, the Community has negotiated various agreements (hereinafter referred to as the ‘GATT agreements’); whereas several of those agreements concern agriculture, in particular the Agreement on Agriculture (hereinafter referred to as ‘the Agreement’); whereas the concessions relating to domestic support can be complied with by setting prices and aid at a suitable level and specific provisions need not be laid down on this subject; whereas the Agreement lays down a six-year timetable for the extension of access to the Community market for agricultural products from third countries on the one hand and the gradual reduction in support granted by the Community on exports of agricultural products on the other hand; whereas the agricultural legislation on trade with third countries should be adapted accordingly;

Whereas, by converting all the measures restricting imports of agricultural products into customs duties (tarification) and by prohibiting the application of such measures in the future, the Agreement requires the abolition of variable import levies and of the other measures and import charges currently provided for under the market organizations; whereas the rates of customs duty applicable to agricultural products in accordance with the Agreement are to be fixed in the Common Customs Tariff; whereas, however, for certain product groups such as cereals, rice, wine and fruit and vegetables, the introduction of supplementary or other trade mechanisms that do not involve the collection of fixed customs duties calls for the adoption of rules providing for derogations in the basis regulations; whereas, in addition, the measures to protect the Community market against imports of dried grapes and processed cherries can, under the Agreement on Safeguards, be maintained for a period of five years; whereas, moreover, in order to avert problems of supply to the Community market, the suspension of customs duties on certain sugar products should be permitted;

Whereas, in order to maintain a minimum level of protection against the adverse effects on the market as a result of tarification, the Agreement permits the application of additional customs duties under precisely defined conditions but only to products subject to tarification; whereas the corresponding provisions should accordingly be inserted into the basic Regulations concerned;

Whereas the Agreement provides for a series of tariff quotas under arrangements for current and minimum access; whereas the conditions applicable to such quotas are spelled out in detail in the Agreement; whereas, in view of the large number of quotas and in order to ensure that they are implemented as effectively as possible, the Commission should be responsible for opening and administering them using the management committee procedure;

Whereas the amendments resulting from the framework agreement on bananas concluded with certain countries in South America under the Uruguay Round should be incorporated in Council Regulation (EEC) No 404/93 of 13 February 1993 on the common organization of the market in bananas(3);

Whereas, since the Agreement of Safeguards lays down clear rules on the application of protective clauses as incorporated in the market organizations, such clauses should be supplemented by a reference to the obligations flowing from international agreements;

Whereas in its trading relations with third countries not subject to the GATT agreements the Community is not bound by the constraints on access to the Community market arising therefrom; whereas, in order to ensure that the necessary measures may be taken where applicable with regard to products from such countries, the Commission should be given the relevant powers, to be exercised through the management committee procedure;

Whereas, by virtue of the Agreement, the granting of export subsidies is limited henceforward to certain groups of agricultural products defined therein; whereas, in addition, it is subject to limits in terms of quantity and value;

Whereas compliance with the limits in terms of value can be ensured at the time when refunds are fixed and through monitoring of payments under the rules relating to the EAGGF; whereas monitoring may be facilitated by the compulsory advance fixing of refunds, while allowing the possibility, in the case of differentiated refunds, of changing the specified destination; whereas, in the case of a change of destination, the restitution applicable to the actual destination should be paid, with a ceiling at the level of the amount applicable to the destination fixed in advance;

Whereas monitoring of constraints in terms of quantity calls for the introduction of a reliable and effective system of monitoring; whereas, to that end, the granting of refunds should be made subject to an export licence; whereas refunds should be granted up to the limits available, depending on the particular situation of each product concerned; whereas exceptions to that rule can only be permitted in the case of processed products not listed in Annex II to the Treaty, to which limits in value do not apply, and in the case of food-aid operations, which are exempt from any limitation; whereas provision should be made for derogations from strict compliance with management rules where exports benefiting from refunds are not likely to exceed the limits in quantity laid down; whereas monitoring of the quantities exported with refunds during the marketing years referred to in the Agreement can be carried out on the basis of export licences issued for each marketing year;

Whereas, in most of the common organizations of the market, the exclusion from recourse to the arrangements for inward processing traffic falls exclusively within the competence of the Council; whereas in the economic conditions arising under the Agreement, it could prove necessary to react rapidly to market problems arising from the application of the said arrangements; whereas in that regard competence should be conferred on the Commission to adopt urgent measures which are limited in time; whereas those measures should be subject to the application of the procedure laid down in Article 3 of Council Decision 87/373/EEC of 13 July 1987(4);

Whereas compliance with the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights must also be ensured; whereas, to that end, the requisite stipulations must be inserted into Council Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 of 16 March 1987 on the common organization of the market in wine(5);

Whereas, in the wake of the amendments to the legislation on agriculture provided for in this Regulation, many Council Regulations deriving from the basic regulations no longer serve any purpose; whereas, for the sake of legal clarity, they should be repealed; whereas certain provisions which have lapsed although they are not directly connected with the GATT agreements should also be repealed; whereas it is the same for certain Council Regulations referred to as ‘second generation’ which may for the most part be incorporated in the basic regulations in question;

Whereas, however, it has not been possible to integrate the existing general rules of the Council on the application of the safeguard clause in the basic regulations; whereas in the light of the importance of the amendments rendered necessary in that area following the GATT agreements, the regulations in question may not be maintained; whereas they should therefore be repealed, while providing the legal bases to enable their replacement;

Whereas application of the Agreement on agriculture could be jeopardized if the internal procedures to be used differed substantially between different sectors; whereas, for that reason, it is desirable to make those procedures uniform;

Whereas adoption by the Council of general implementing rules has in the past made it possible to provide an adequate framework for the more specific rules necessary for managing the markets; whereas implementation of the said Agreement on Agriculture should not call into question the mechanisms and procedures for managing the common agricultural policy;

Whereas it will be useful to analyse, at a later stage, both the functioning of the arrangements set up by this Regulation and the experience acquired with the measures taken by third countries for the implementation of the GATT agreements; whereas to that effect, upon expiry of the first two years of application of this Regulation, the Commission should present a report to the Council and the European Parliament;

Whereas the switch-over from the existing arrangements to those resulting from the GATT agreements may give rise to difficulties of adaptation which are not dealt with in this Regulation; whereas, in order to deal with that eventuality, a general provision should be included enabling the Commission to adopt the transitional measures necessary for a certain period,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
