Council Regulation (EC) No 2475/2000

of 7 November 2000

establishing certain concessions in the form of Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural products and providing for an adjustment, as an autonomous and transitional measure, of certain agricultural concessions provided for in the Europe Agreement with Slovenia

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 133 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

(1) The Europe Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Slovenia, of the other part(1), provides for certain concessions for certain agricultural products originating in Slovenia.

(2) In accordance with the directives adopted by the Council on 30 March 1999, the Commission and Slovenia concluded on 22 May 2000 negotiations on an Additional Protocol to the Europe Agreement.

(3) The Additional Protocol, which provides for additional agricultural concessions, will be based on Article 21(5) of the Europe Agreement, establishing that the Community and Slovenia are to examine in the Association Council, product by product and on an orderly and reciprocal basis, the possibility of granting each other further concessions.

(4) A swift implementation of the adjustments forms an essential part of the results of the negotiations for the conclusion of an Additional Protocol to the Europe Agreement with Slovenia.

(5) It is therefore appropriate to provide for the adjustment, as an autonomous and transitional measure, of the agricultural concessions provided for in the Europe Agreement with Slovenia.

(6) Slovenia will take all useful legislative provisions, on an autonomous and transitional basis, in order to enable a rapid and simultaneous implementation of the adaptation of the agricultural concessions of Slovenia provided for in the Europe Agreement.

(7) The measures necessary for the implementation of this Regulation should be in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission(2).

(8) Commission Regulation (EC) No 2454/93 of 2 July 1993 laying down provisions for the implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code(3) codified the management rules for tariff quotas designed to be used following the chronological order of dates of customs declarations,

The Commission shall be assisted by the committee instituted by Article 23 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1766/92 of 30 June 1992 on the common organisation of the market of cereals(4) or, where appropriate, the committee instituted by the relevant provisions of the other Regulations on the common organisation of agricultural markets.
