Council Regulation (EU) No 1071/2011

of 20 October 2011

repealing Regulation (EEC) No 3448/80 on the implementation of Article 43 of the 1979 Act of Accession, concerning the system of trade applicable to the goods covered by Regulations (EEC) No 3033/80 and (EEC) No 3035/80

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the 1979 Act of Accession, and in particular Article 43 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Whereas:

(1)

Improving the transparency of Union law is an essential element of the better law-making strategy that Union institutions are implementing. In that context it is appropriate to remove from active legislation those acts which no longer have real effect.

(2)
Regulation (EEC) No 3448/801 provided for transitional measures for trade of non-Annex I goods between the EC and Greece between 1 November 1981 and 31 July 1982. While Greece is a full Member now, that Regulation has become obsolete, and should consequently be withdrawn from the active Union acquis.
(3)

For reasons of legal certainty and clarity, Regulation (EEC) No 3448/80 should be repealed,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
