THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 of 30 June 1992 on the common organisation of the market in cereals(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1666/2000(2), and in particular Article 12(1) thereof,
Having regard to Council Decision 95/582/EC of 20 December 1995 on the conclusion of the Agreements in the form of Exchanges of Letters between the European Community, of the one part, and the Republic of Iceland, the Kingdom of Norway and the Swiss Confederation, of the other part, concerning certain agricultural products(3), and in particular Article 2 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1095/96 of 18 June 1996 on the implementation of the concessions set out in Schedule CXL drawn up in the wake of the conclusion of the GATT XXIV.6 negotiations(4), and in particular Article 1 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1706/98 of 20 July 1998 on the arrangements applicable to agricultural products and goods resulting from the processing of agricultural products originating in the African, Caribbean and Pacific States (ACP States) and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 715/90(5), and in particular Article 30 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1727/2000 of 31 July 2000 establishing certain concessions in the form of Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural products and providing for an adjustment, as an autonomous and transitional measure, of certain agricultural concessions provided for in the Europe Agreement with Hungary(6), and in particular Article 1(3) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2290/2000 of 9 October 2000 establishing certain concessions in the form of Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural products and providing for an adjustment, as an autonomous and transitional measure, of certain agricultural concessions provided for in the Europe Agreement with Bulgaria(7), and in particular Article 1(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 of 2 July 1993 laying down provisions for the implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code(8), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 993/2001(9), codified the rules for administering tariff quotas designed to be used following the chronological order of dates of customs declarations and for surveillance of preferential imports.
(2) In the interests of simplification and in view of the small volume of some of the quotas and ceilings provided for in Decision 95/582/EC, Council Decision 97/126/EC of 6 December 1996 concerning the conclusion of an agreement between the European Community, of the one part, and the Government of Denmark and the Home Government of the Faroe Islands, of the other part(10) and Council Regulations (EC) No 1095/96, (EC) No 1706/98, (EC) No 1727/2000 and (EC) No 2290/2000, Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 should also apply to those quotas and ceilings.
(3) For administrative reasons, a new serial number should be allotted to each of the tariff quotas and ceilings concerned.
(4) To ensure effective management of certain quotas and ceilings covered by this Regulation, a certificate testifying to the origin of the goods should be required
(5) In view of the quality of wheat required for quota Nos 09.0074 and 09.0075, the customs authorities should check compliance with the quality requirements before granting entitlement to the quota. To ensure that these quotas are managed effectively, a system of securities should be introduced.
(6) If the ceilings covered by this Regulation are reached during a given year, the Commission may re-introduce, by Regulation, the levying of normal customs duties reduced by 50 %.
(7) Application of Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 to these quotas and ceilings makes unnecessary the detailed implementing rules relating thereto laid down in Commission Regulations (EC) No 1897/94(11), (EC) No 306/96(12), (EC) No 1827/96(13), 1970/96(14), (EC) No 1405/97(15), (EC) No 1406/97(16), (EC) No 2492/98(17), (EC) No 2809/98(18) and (EC) No 778/1999(19). Those Regulations should therefore be repealed with effect from the dates from which the provisions of this Regulation apply.
