DECISION No 2/2006 OF THE EC-SWITZERLAND JOINT COMMITTEE
of 31 January 2006
amending Table I, Table II, Table IV(c) and the Appendix to Table IV of Protocol 2
(2006/93/EC)
THE JOINT COMMITTEE,
Having regard to the Agreement between the European Economic Community, of the one part, and the Swiss Confederation, of the other part signed in Brussels on 22 July 1972, hereinafter referred to as ‘the Agreement’, as amended by the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation amending the Agreement as regards the provisions applicable to processed agricultural products signed in Luxembourg on 26 October 2004, and its Protocol 2, and in particular Article 7 thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
The mutual free market access for undenatured ethyl alcohol shall be completed by adding undenatured ethyl alcohol of an alcoholic strength by volume of less than 80 % vol. of the HS heading No 2208.90 to Table I and Table IV(c) of Protocol 2. |
|
(2) |
The Swiss customs tariff does not classify products containing fat in tariff no 1901.2099. Therefore, the standard recipe of this tariff number in the Appendix to Table IV shall be adapted by removing the butter content and replacing it partially by an increased wheat flour content. |
|
(3) |
Beverages containing milk components shall be subject to price compensation measures and therefore listed in Table I of Protocol 2. Following the modification of Table I, Table II of Protocol 2 must also be amended. As no import duties are imposed on preferential imports to Switzerland, these products shall be listed in Table IV(c) of Protocol 2 as well, |
HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:
Article 1
Table I, Table II, Table IV(c) and Appendix to Table IV of Protocol 2 are amended as indicated in Annex I to Annex IV to this Decision.
Article 2
This Decision shall enter into force on 1 February 2006.
