THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 31 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) It is in the interest of the Union to suspend totally the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on 111 products that are not currently listed in Annex I to Council Regulation (EU) No 1387/2013(1). Those new products should, therefore, be inserted into that Annex.
(2) It is no longer in the interest of the Union to maintain the suspension of autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on 15 of the products that are currently listed in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 1387/2013. Those products should, therefore, be deleted from that Annex.
(3) It is necessary to modify the product descriptions of 27 suspensions included in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 1387/2013 in order to take account of technical product developments and economic trends in the market or to carry out linguistic adaptations. Moreover, following further scrutiny of the products specifications, CN codes for two additional products should be amended. The suspensions in respect of which modifications are necessary should be deleted from the list of suspensions in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 1387/2013, and the modified suspensions should be inserted into that list.
(4) In the interest of clarity, the modified entries should be marked with an asterisk.
(5) In order to allow for appropriate statistical monitoring, Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 1387/2013 should be completed with supplementary units for some of the new products for which suspensions are granted. For reasons of consistency, the supplementary units assigned to the products deleted from Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 1387/2013 should also be deleted from Annex II to that Regulation.
(6) It should be clarified that any mixtures, preparations or products made up of different components containing products subject to autonomous tariff suspensions are not covered by Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 1387/2013.
(7) Regulation (EU) No 1387/2013 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(8) Following specific administrative arrangements, the amendments pursuant to this Regulation have to take effect from 1 July 2015. This Regulation should apply from that date.
(9) However, in order to adequately ensure the benefit of the suspension with regard to the competitive capacity of the enterprises concerned by products:
with TARIC code 2930 90 99 21, the suspension relating to those products should apply from 1 January 2014;
with TARIC code 8507 60 00 87, the suspension relating to those products should apply from 1 July 2014;
with TARIC codes 8409 99 00 30, 8411 99 00 60 and 8411 99 00 70, the suspension relating to those products should apply from 1 January 2015,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Council Regulation (EU) No 1387/2013 of 17 December 2013 suspending the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on certain agricultural and industrial products and repealing Regulation (EU) No 1344/2011 (OJ L 354, 28.12.2013, p. 201).
