COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1736/84

of 18 June 1984

amending Regulation (EEC) No 2915/79 as regards the application of annual tariff quotas for certain types of cheese allotted to Finland and amending Regulation (EEC) No 3148/83

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 856/84 (2), and in particular Article 14 (6) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 2915/79 of 18 December 1979 determining the groups of products and the special provisions for calculating levies on milk and milk products and amending Regulation (EEC) No 950/68 on the Common Customs Tariff (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1473/84 (4), provides in Annex II (c), (h) and (q) for annual tariff quotas in respect of Finland; whereas Finland and the Community have, with the aim of developing reciprocal trade, agreed to adjust the quantities and import duties valid for 1984 for certain types of cheese; whereas, to enable the Community to fulfil the undertakings it has made, there should be a derogation from the provisions governing the annual tariff quotas allotted to Finland in respect of the said cheeses and provision should be made, in Regulation (EEC) No 2915/79, for the possibility of importing in 1984, on special terms, a limited quantity of Tilsit cheese originating in Finland;

Whereas this derogation replaces that laid down in respect of 1984 in Council Regulation (EEC) No 3148/83 of 4 November 1983 derogating from Regulation (EEC) No 2915/79 in respect of the application of annual tariff quotas, for certain types of cheese, allotted to Finland (5); whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3148/83 should therefore be amended by making it apply in respect of 1983 only,
