THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 207(2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee,

Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure,

Whereas:

(1)

Council Regulation (EC) No 517/94 has been substantially amended several times. Since further amendments are to be made, that Regulation should be recast in the interests of clarity.

(2)

The common commercial policy should be based on uniform principles.

(3)

Uniformity in the rules for imports should be ensured by laying down, as far as possible given the particular features of the economic system in the third countries in question, provisions similar to those applied under the common rules for other third countries.

(4)

For a limited number of products originating in certain third countries, owing to the sensitivity of the textile sector of the Union, surveillance measures applicable at Union level should be laid down in this Regulation.

(5)

Provision should be made for special rules for products re imported under the arrangements for economic outward processing.

(6)

Annex III B to Regulation (EC) No 517/94 as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1398/2007 was emptied of its content. Therefore, it is appropriate to delete that Annex entirely. In the interest of clarity, the reference to that Annex in Article 4(2) should also be deleted.

(7)

Some imports of certain textile products from certain third countries may have to be subject to Union surveillance, quantitative limits or other appropriate measures.

(8)

If Union surveillance is applied, release for free circulation of the products in question should be made subject to presentation of a surveillance document meeting uniform criteria. That document should, on simple application by the importer, be issued by the authorities of the Member States within a certain period but without the importer thereby acquiring any right to import. The document should therefore be valid only during such period as the import rules remain unchanged.

(9)

It is in the interests of the Union that the Member States and the Commission should make as full as possible an exchange of information resulting from Union surveillance.

(10)

It is necessary to adopt precise criteria for assessing possible injury and initiating an investigations procedure while still allowing the Commission to introduce appropriate measures in urgent cases.

(11)

To that end, detailed provisions should be laid down in respect of the initiation of investigations, the checks and inspections required, the hearing of those concerned, the treatment of information obtained and the criteria for assessing injury.

(12)

It is necessary to provide for an appropriate system for administering Union quantitative restrictions.

(13)

The administrative procedure should ensure that all applicants have fair access to quotas.

(14)

In the interests of uniformity of rules for imports, the formalities to be carried out by importers should be simple and identical regardless of the place where the goods clear customs. It is, therefore, desirable to provide that any formalities should be carried out using forms corresponding to the specimen set out in Annex VI to this Regulation.

(15)

Surveillance or safeguard measures confined to one or more regions rather than the whole of the Union may nevertheless prove necessary. However, such measures should be authorised only exceptionally and where no alternative exists. It is necessary to ensure that such measures are temporary and cause the minimum of disruption to the operation of the internal market.

(16)

The provisions of this Regulation are without prejudice to Union or national legislation concerning professional secrecy.

(17)

The safeguard measures necessitated by the interests of the Union should be implemented with due regard for existing international obligations.

(18)

In order to simplify procedures for importers, it is necessary to provide for the possibility to extend the validity of, wholly or partly, unused import authorisations, instead of returning them to the competent authorities of the issuing Member States.

(19)

In order to ensure the appropriate functioning of the system for the management of imports of certain textile products not covered by bilateral agreements, protocols or other arrangements, or by other specific Union import rules, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty should be delegated to the Commission in respect of amending the Annexes to this Regulation, altering the import rules and applying safeguard measures and surveillance measures in accordance with this Regulation. It is of particular importance that the Commission carry out appropriate consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level. The Commission, when preparing and drawing up delegated acts, should ensure a simultaneous, timely and appropriate transmission of relevant documents to the European Parliament and to the Council.

(20)

In order to ensure uniform conditions for the implementation of this Regulation, implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission. Those powers should be exercised in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council.

(21)

The advisory procedure should be used for the adoption of surveillance measures given the effects of those measures and their sequential logic in relation to the adoption of definitive safeguard measures,

HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

CHAPTER I <Strong>GENERAL PRINICPLES</Strong> Article 1 1 This Regulation applies to imports of textile products falling within Section XI of Part Two of the Combined Nomenclature set out in Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 and of other textile products, as listed in Annex I to this Regulation, originating in third countries and not covered by bilateral agreements, protocols or other arrangements, or by other specific Union import rules. 2 For the purposes of paragraph 1, textile products falling within Section XI of Part Two of the Combined Nomenclature set out in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 shall be classified in categories as set out in Section A of Annex I to this Regulation, with the exception of products covered by Combined Nomenclature codes (CN codes) listed in Section B of Annex I to this Regulation. 3 For the purposes of this Regulation, the term ‘originating products’ and the methods for controlling the origin of those products shall be as defined by the relevant Union rules in force. Article 2 Imports into the Union of products referred to in Article 1 and originating in third countries other than those listed in Annex II shall be free and therefore not subject to any quantitative restriction, without prejudice to the measures that may be taken under Chapter III and those that have been or may be taken under specific common import rules for the period during which those rules apply. Article 3 1 Imports into the Union of textile products listed in Annex III and originating in the countries indicated in that Annex shall be subject to the annual quantitative limits established in that Annex. 2 The release for free circulation in the Union of imports subject to the quantitative limits referred to in paragraph 1 shall be subject to the presentation of an import authorisation or equivalent document issued by the Member States' authorities in accordance with the procedure set out in this Regulation. The imports authorised in accordance with this paragraph shall be charged against the quantitative limits fixed for the calendar year for which quantitative limits have been fixed. 3 Any textile product referred to in Annex IV and originating in the third countries indicated therein may be imported into the Union provided that an annual quantitative limit is established by the Commission. Any such quantitative limit shall be based on previous trade flows or, where not available, duly justified estimations of such trade flows. The Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 31 to amend the relevant Annexes to this Regulation with respect to the establishment of such annual quantitative limits. 4 Imports into the Union of textile products other than those covered by paragraphs 1 and 3 and originating in the countries indicated in Annex II shall be free, subject to the measures that may be taken under Chapter III and to measures that have been or may be taken under specific common import rules for the duration of those rules. Article 4 1 Without prejudice to measures that may be taken under Chapter III or under specific common import rules, re imports into the Union of textile products after processing in third countries other than those listed in Annex II shall not be subject to quantitative limits. 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Article 5 1 The Committee referred to in Article 30 may consider any matter relating to the application of this Regulation raised by the Commission or at the request of a Member State. 2 The Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 31 concerning the measures required to adapt Annexes III to VI where problems are detected as regards their effective functioning. CHAPTER II <Strong>UNION INFORMATION AND INVESTIGATION PROCEDURE</Strong> Article 6 1 In respect of the textile products listed in Annex I, Member States shall notify the Commission, within 30 days following the end of each month, of the total quantities imported during that month by country of origin and CN code and the units, including where appropriate supplementary units of the CN code. The imports shall be broken down in accordance with the statistical procedures in force. 2 In order to enable the market trends in the products covered by this Regulation to be monitored, Member States shall communicate to the Commission, by 31 March each year, statistical data for the preceding year on exports. The statistical data relating to the production and the consumption of each product shall be forwarded to the Commission under arrangements to be determined subsequently in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3). 3 Where the nature of the products or particular circumstances so require, the Commission may, at the request of a Member State or on its own initiative, alter the time limits for communicating the information referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Article in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3). 4 In the urgent cases referred to in Article 13, the Member State or States concerned shall send the necessary import statistics and economic data to the Commission and the other Member States without delay. Article 7 1 Where it is apparent to the Commission that there is sufficient evidence to justify an investigation, with regard to the conditions of imports of products referred to in Article 1, the Commission shall initiate an investigation. The Commission shall inform Member States once it has determined that there is a need to initiate such an investigation. 2 In addition to the information supplied under Article 6, the Commission shall seek all information it deems necessary and shall endeavour to check that information with importers, traders, agents, producers, trade associations and organisations. The Commission shall be assisted in this task by staff of the Member State on whose territory these checks are being carried out, provided that this Member State so wishes. 3 The Member States shall provide the Commission, at its request and following procedures laid down by it, with the information at their disposal on developments in the market of the product being investigated. 4 The Commission may hear the interested natural and legal persons. Such parties must be heard where they have applied in writing within the period laid down in the notice published in the Official Journal of the European Union, showing that they are actually likely to be affected by the outcome of the investigation and that there are special reasons for them to be heard orally. 5 Where the information requested by the Commission is not supplied within a reasonable period, or the investigation is significantly impeded, findings may be made on the basis of the facts available. 6 Where the Commission has been asked to act by a Member State and it finds that there is insufficient evidence to justify an investigation, it shall, following consultations, inform the Member State of its decision. Article 8 1 At the end of the investigation, the Commission shall submit a report on the results to the Committee referred to in Article 30. 2 If the Commission considers that no Union surveillance or safeguard measures are necessary, it shall, acting in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3), decide to close the investigation, stating the main conclusions of the investigation. 3 If the Commission considers that Union surveillance or safeguard measures are necessary, it shall take the necessary decisions in accordance with Chapter III. Article 9 1 Information received pursuant to this Regulation shall be used only for the purpose for which it was requested. 2 The Commission, its officials, Member States, and their officials shall not reveal any information of a confidential nature received pursuant to this Regulation, or any information provided on a confidential basis, without specific permission from the supplier of such information. Each request for confidentiality shall state the reasons why the information is confidential. However, if it appears that a request for confidentiality is unjustified and if the supplier of the information wishes neither to make it public nor to authorise its disclosure in general terms or in the form of a summary, the information concerned may be disregarded. 3 Information shall in any case be considered to be confidential if its disclosure is likely to have a significantly adverse effect upon the supplier or the source of such information. 4 Paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 shall not preclude reference by the Union authorities to general information and in particular to reasons on which decisions taken pursuant to this Regulation are based. The Union authorities shall, however, take into account the legitimate interest of the natural and legal persons concerned that their business secrets should not be divulged. Article 10 1 The examination of the trend of imports, of the conditions in which imports take place, and of the serious injury or threat of serious injury to Union producers resulting from such imports, shall cover in particular the following factors: a the volume of imports, in particular where there has been a significant increase, either in absolute terms or relative to production or consumption in the Union; b the prices of the imports, in particular where there has been a significant price undercutting as compared with the price of a like product in the Union; c the consequent impact on the Union producers of like or directly competitive products as indicated by trends in certain economic factors such as: production, capacity utilisation, stocks, sales, market share, prices (i.e. depression of prices or prevention of price increases which would normally have occurred), profits, return on capital employed, cash flow, employment. 2 In conducting the investigation, the Commission shall take account of the particular economic system of the third countries referred to in Annex II. 3 Where a threat of serious injury is alleged, the Commission shall also examine whether it is clearly foreseeable that a particular situation is likely to develop into actual injury. In this regard, account may be taken of factors such as: a the rate of increase of the exports to the Union; b export capacity in the country of origin or export, already in existence or which will be operational in the foreseeable future, and the likelihood that the resulting exports will be to the Union. CHAPTER III <Strong>SURVEILLANCE AND SAFEGUARD MEASURES</Strong> Article 11 1 Where imports of textile products originating in third countries other than those listed in Annex II threaten to cause injury to Union production of like or directly competitive products, the Commission, acting at the request of a Member State or on its own initiative, may: a decide to introduce retrospective Union surveillance of certain imports, in accordance with the advisory procedure referred to in Article 30(2), b decide, for the purposes of monitoring the trend of these imports, to make certain imports subject to prior Union surveillance, in accordance with the advisory procedure referred to in Article 30(2). 2 Where imports of textile products originating in third countries listed in Annex II and liberalised at Union level threaten to cause injury to the Union production of like or directly competitive products, or where the economic interests of the Union so require, the Commission, acting at the request of a Member State or on its own initiative, may: a decide to introduce retrospective Union surveillance of certain imports, in accordance with the advisory procedure referred to in Article 30(2); b decide, for the purposes of monitoring the trend of these imports, to make certain imports subject to prior Union surveillance in accordance with the advisory procedure referred to in Article 30(2). 3 The measures referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 shall, as a rule, be of a limited period of validity. Article 12 1 Where imports of textile products originating in third countries other than those listed in Annex II take place in such increased quantities, absolute or relative, and/or under such conditions, so as to cause serious injury or actual threat thereof to the Union production of like or directly competitive products, the Commission may, acting at the request of a Member State or on its own initiative, alter the import rules for the product in question by providing that it may be put into free circulation only on production of an import authorisation, the granting of which shall be governed by such provisions and subject to such limits as the Commission shall lay down. 2 Where imports of textile products originating in third countries listed in Annex II and liberalised at Union level take place in such increased quantities, absolute or relative, and/or under such conditions, so as to threaten to cause injury to the Union production of like or directly competitive products, or where the economic interests of the Union so require, the Commission may, acting at the request of a Member State or on its own initiative, alter the import rules for the product in question by providing that it may be put into free circulation only on production of an import authorisation, the granting of which shall be governed by such provisions and subject to such limits as the Commission shall lay down. 3 The Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 31 concerning measures referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Article in order to alter the import rules for the product in question, including by amending the Annexes to this Regulation. 4 The measures referred to in this Article and Article 11 shall apply to every product which is put into free circulation after the entry into force of those measures. However, such measures shall not prevent the release for free circulation of products already shipped to the Union provided that the destination of such products cannot be changed and that those products which, under this Article and Article 11, may be put into free circulation only on production of a surveillance document are in fact accompanied by such a document. In accordance with Article 16, measures referred to in this Article and Article 11 may be confined to one or more regions of the Union. Article 13 In cases of emergency where the absence of measures would cause irreparable damage to the Union industry, and where the Commission finds, upon its own initiative or on the request of a Member State, that the conditions set out in Article 12(1) and (2) are fulfilled, and considers that a given category of products listed in Annex I and not subject to any quantitative restriction should be subject to quantitative limits or prior or retrospective surveillance measures, and therefore imperative grounds of urgency so require, the procedure provided for in Article 32 shall apply to delegated acts referred to in Article 12(3) in order to alter the import rules for the product in question, including by amending the Annexes to this Regulation. Article 14 1 Products subject to prior Union surveillance or safeguard measures may be put into free circulation only on production of a surveillance document. In the case of prior Union surveillance measures, the surveillance document shall be issued free of charge by the competent authority designated by Member States within a maximum of 5 working days following receipt of an application to the national competent authority by any Union importers, regardless of their place of business in the Union, for any quantity requested. Such an application shall be deemed to be received by the national competent authority no later than 3 working days after submission, unless it is proven otherwise. The surveillance document shall be made out on a form corresponding to the specimen in Annex VI. Article 21 shall apply mutatis mutandis. In the case of safeguard measures, the surveillance document shall be issued in accordance with the provisions of Chapter IV. 2 Information other than that provided for in paragraph 1 may be required when the decision to impose surveillance or safeguard measures is taken. 3 The surveillance document shall be valid for imports throughout the territory in which the Treaty is applied under the conditions laid down in the Treaty, regardless of the issuing Member State, without prejudice, however, to measures taken under Article 16 of this Regulation. 4 The surveillance document shall not in any event be used beyond the expiry of the period which will be laid down at the same time and by means of the same procedure as the imposition of surveillance or safeguard measures, and which will take account of the nature of the products and other special features of the transactions. 5 Where a decision taken under the appropriate procedure referred to in Article 30 so requires, the origin of products under Union surveillance or safeguard measures must be proved by a certificate of origin. This paragraph shall be without prejudice to other provisions concerning the production of any such certificate. 6 Where the product under prior Union surveillance is subject to regional safeguard measures in a Member State, the import authorisation granted by that Member State may replace the surveillance document. Article 15 In accordance with the advisory procedure referred to in Article 30(2), the Commission may, at the request of a Member State or on its own initiative, if the situation referred to in Article 12(2) is likely to arise: reduce the period of validity of any surveillance document required for the surveillance measures, make the issue of the surveillance document subject to certain conditions and, as an exceptional measure, subject to the insertion of a revocation clause, or, with the frequency and for the length of time indicated by the Commission, to the prior information and consultation procedure referred to in Articles 6 and 8. Article 16 Where on the basis, in particular, of the factors referred to in Articles 10, 11 and 12, it emerges that the conditions laid down for the adoption of surveillance or safeguard measures are met in one or more regions of the Union, the Commission, after having examined alternative solutions, may exceptionally authorise the application of surveillance or safeguard measures limited to the region or regions concerned if it considers that such measures applied at that level are more appropriate than measures applied throughout the Union. Those measures must be temporary and, insofar as possible, must not disrupt the operation of the internal market. Those measures shall be adopted in accordance with the appropriate procedure applicable to measures to be adopted pursuant to Articles 10, 11 and 12. CHAPTER IV <Strong>MANAGEMENT OF UNION IMPORT RESTRICTIONS</Strong> Article 17 1 The competent authorities of the Member States shall notify the Commission of the quantities covered by the requests for import authorisations which they have received. 2 The Commission shall notify its confirmation that the requested quantities are available for importation in the chronological order in which the notifications of the Member States have been received (‘first come, first served’ basis). 3 Where there is reason to believe that anticipated requests may exceed the quantitative limits, the Commission may, in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3), divide the quantitative limits into tranches or fix maximum amounts per allocation. The Commission may, in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3), reserve a proportion of a specific quantitative limit for requests supported by evidence of past import performance. 4 The notifications referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 shall be communicated electronically within the integrated network set up for this purpose, unless for imperative technical reasons it is necessary to use other means of communication temporarily. 5 The competent authorities shall notify the Commission immediately after being informed of any quantity that is not used during the validity of the import authorisation. Such unused quantities shall automatically be transferred into the remaining quantities of the total Union quantitative limit. 6 The Commission may, in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3), take any measure necessary to implement this Article. Article 18 1 All Union importers, regardless of where they are established in the Union, may submit authorisation applications to the competent authority of the Member State of their choice. 2 For the purposes of the second sentence of Article 17(3), importers' applications shall, where necessary, be accompanied by documentary evidence of previous imports for each category and each third country concerned. Article 19 The competent authorities of the Member States shall issue import authorisations within 5 working days of notification of the Commission decision or within the time limit set by the Commission. Those authorities shall inform the Commission that import authorisations have been issued within 10 working days of issuing the authorisations. Article 20 Where necessary and in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3), import authorisations may be made conditional upon the lodging of a security. Article 21 1 Without prejudice to measures taken under Article 16, import authorisations shall authorise the import of products which are subject to quantitative limits and shall be valid throughout the territory in which the Treaty is applied under the conditions laid down in the Treaty, regardless of the place of import mentioned in the applications by importers. When the Union introduces temporary limits for one or more of its regions, in accordance with Article 16, those limits shall not preclude the importation into the region(s) concerned of products shipped before the date of introduction of those limits. 2 The period of validity of import authorisations issued by the competent authorities of the Member States shall be 9 months. That period of validity may be modified where necessary, in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3). 3 Applications for import authorisations shall be drawn up on forms conforming to a specimen the characteristics of which shall be established in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3). The competent authorities may, under the conditions fixed by them, allow application documents to be submitted by electronic means. However, all documents and evidence shall be available to the competent authorities. 4 Import authorisations may be issued by electronic means at the request of the importer concerned. At the duly motivated request of that importer, and provided that paragraph 3 has been complied with, an import authorisation issued by electronic means may be replaced by an import authorisation in paper form by the competent authority of the same Member State which issued the original import authorisation. However, that authority shall only issue an import authorisation in written form after having ensured that the authorisation by electronic means has been cancelled. Any measure necessary to implement this paragraph may be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3). 5 At the request of the Member State concerned, textile products in the possession of the competent authorities of that Member State, particularly in the context of bankruptcy or similar procedures, for which a valid import authorisation is no longer available, may be released into free circulation in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3). Article 22 Without prejudice to the specific provisions to be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3), import authorisations shall not be loaned or transferred, whether for a consideration or free of charge, by the person in whose name the document was issued. Article 23 The validity of import authorisations which are wholly or partly unused may be extended, if enough quantities are available, in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 30(3). Article 24 The competent authorities of the Member States shall inform the Commission, within 30 days following the end of each month, of the quantities of products subject to Union quantitative limits which have been imported during the preceding month.

That period shall be extended by 4 months at the initiative of the European Parliament or of the Council. Article 32 1 Delegated acts adopted under this Article shall enter into force without delay and shall apply as long as no objection is expressed in accordance with paragraph 2. The notification of a delegated act to the European Parliament and to the Council shall state the reasons for the use of the urgency procedure. 2 Either the European Parliament or the Council may object to a delegated act in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 31(5) or (6). In such a case, the Commission shall repeal the act without delay following the notification of the decision to object by the European Parliament or by the Council. Article 33 1 This Regulation shall not preclude the fulfilment of obligations arising from special rules contained in agreements concluded between the Union and third countries. 2 Without prejudice to other Union provisions, this Regulation shall not preclude the adoption or application by Member States of: a prohibitions, quantitative restrictions or surveillance measures on grounds of public morality, public policy or public security, the protection of health and life of humans, animals or plants, the protection of national treasures possessing artistic, historic or archaeological value, or the protection of industrial and commercial property; b special formalities concerning foreign exchange; c formalities introduced pursuant to international agreements in accordance with the Treaty. The Member States shall inform the Commission of the measures or formalities to be introduced or amended in accordance with the first subparagraph. In the event of extreme urgency, the national measures or formalities in question shall be communicated to the Commission immediately upon their adoption.
