COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 972/2006
of 29 June 2006
laying down special rules for imports of Basmati rice and a transitional control system for determining their origin
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003 of 29 September 2003 on the common organisation of the market in rice ( 1 ), and in particular Articles 10(2) and 11b thereof,
Whereas:|
(1) |
Pursuant to the Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters between the European Community and India pursuant to Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994 relating to the modification of concessions with respect to rice provided for in EC Schedule CXL annexed to the GATT 1994 ( 2 ), approved by Council Decision 2004/617/EC ( 3 ), the duty applicable to imports of husked rice of certain Basmati varieties is fixed at zero. |
|
(2) |
Pursuant to the Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters between the European Community and Pakistan pursuant to Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994 relating to the modification of concessions with respect to rice provided for in EC Schedule CXL annexed to the GATT 1994 ( 4 ), approved by Council Decision 2004/618/EC ( 5 ), the duty applicable to imports of husked rice of certain Basmati varieties originating in Pakistan is fixed at zero. |
|
(3) |
Pursuant to Article 2(1) of Decision 2004/617/EC and Article 2(1) of Decision 2004/618/EC, the Commission adopted Regulation (EC) No 1549/2004 ( 6 ), which, until Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003 was amended, derogated therefrom as regards the arrangements for importing rice and laid down separate transitional rules for imports of Basmati rice. Given that Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003 has been amended to that end, for the sake of clarity, Regulation (EC) No 1549/2004 should be replaced by a new Regulation. |
|
(4) |
The Agreements approved by Decisions 2004/617/EC and 2004/618/EC provide for the introduction of a Community control system based on DNA analysis at the border and transitional arrangements for imports of Basmati rice pending the entry into force of that control system. Since the definitive control system has not yet been introduced, special transitional rules should be laid down. |
|
(5) |
To be eligible for zero import duty, Basmati rice must belong to a variety specified in the Agreements. In order to ascertain that Basmati rice imported at a zero rate of duty meets those characteristics, it should be covered by an authenticity certificate drawn up by the competent authorities. |
|
(6) |
In order to prevent fraud, provision should be made for measures to check the variety of Basmati rice declared. To that end the provisions on sampling laid down in Commission Regulation (EEC) 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 ( 7 ) should be applied. |
|
(7) |
The transitional import arrangements for Basmati rice provide for a procedure for consulting the exporting country in the event of a market disturbance and possibly applying the full rate of duty if a satisfactory solution has not been found at the end of the consultations. The point at which the market may be considered to be disturbed should be defined. |
|
(8) |
To ensure sound administrative management of imports of Basmati rice, special rules, whether additional to or derogating from Commission Regulation (EC) No 1291/2000 of 9 June 2000, laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences and advance fixing certificates for agricultural products ( 8 ) and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1342/2003 of 28 July 2003 laying down special detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences for cereals and rice ( 9 ), should be adopted concerning the lodging of applications, the issue of licences and the use thereof. |
|
(9) |
So as not to disrupt the continuity of imports of Basmati rice, it should be laid down that authenticity certificates and import licences issued before 1 July 2006 pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1549/2004 remain valid for their entire period of validity and that the zero rate of duty applies to products imported under those licences. |
|
(10) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
This Regulation shall apply to husked Basmati rice of the varieties of Basmati rice falling within CN code 1006 20 17 and CN code 1006 20 98, as specified in Annex IIIa to Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003.

The forms shall be printed and completed in English.
The original and the copies thereof shall be either typewritten or handwritten. In the latter case, they shall be completed in ink and in block capitals.
Each authenticity certificate shall contain a serial number in the top right-hand box. The copies shall bear the same number as the original.
The text of the form in the other Community languages shall be published in the C series of the Official Journal of the European Union.
2. The body issuing the import licence shall keep the original of the authenticity certificate and give the applicant a copy.
The authenticity certificate shall be valid for 90 days from the date of issue.
It shall be valid only if the boxes are duly completed and it is signed.

The information referred to in the first paragraph shall be communicated separately from that relating to other import licence applications for rice.
Article 6
1. In the context of random checks or checks targeted at operations entailing a risk of fraud, Member States shall take representative samples of imported Basmati rice as laid down in Article 242 of Regulation (EC) No 2454/93. The samples shall be sent to the competent body in the country of origin, as listed in Annex V, for a DNA-based variety test.
The Member States may also carry out variety tests on the same sample in a Community laboratory.
2. If the results of one of the tests referred to in paragraph 1 show that the product analysed does not correspond to what is indicated on the authenticity certificate, the import duty on husked rice falling within CN code 1006 20, provided for in Article 11a of Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003, shall apply.
However, the presence up to 5 % of husked rice falling within CN code 1006 20 17 or CN code 1006 20 98 not corresponding to any of the varieties listed in Annex XVIII to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 ( 10 ) shall be accepted.
3. If the tests referred to in paragraph 1 or other information available to the Commission indicate a serious and lasting problem as regards the control procedures applied by a competent body in the country of origin, the Commission may contact the competent authorities in the country concerned. If such contacts fail to yield a satisfactory solution, the Commission may decide to apply the rate of import duty for husked rice falling within CN code 1006 20, provided for in Article 11a of Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003 to the imports checked by the body in question, based on Article 11b of the said Regulation and under the conditions laid down therein.
Article 7
1. The rice market shall be considered to be disturbed when, inter alia, a substantial increase in Basmati rice imports is noted for one quarter of the year relative to the previous quarter and there is no satisfactory explanation.
2. If a disturbance of the rice market persists and if the Commission's consultations of the exporting countries concerned fail to yield a satisfactory solution, the import duty on husked rice falling within CN code 1006 20, provided for in Article 11a of Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003, may also be applied to imports of Basmati rice, by Commission Decision, on the basis of Article 11b of the said Regulation and subject to the conditions laid down in therein.
Article 8
The Commission shall keep Annexes II and V up to date.
Article 9
Authenticity certificates and import licences for Basmati rice issued prior to 1 July 2006 under Regulation (EC) No 1549/2004 shall remain valid and products imported under such licences shall be eligible for the import duty provided for in Article 11a of Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003.
Article 10
