COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2017/1468

of 11 August 2017

amending Regulation (EU) No 354/2011 opening and providing for the management of tariff quotas of the Union for certain fish and fishery products originating in Bosnia and Herzegovina

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 October 2013 laying down the Union Customs Code (1), and in particular Article 58(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

By Decision (EU) 2017/75 (2) (‘the Decision’), the Council authorised the signing, on behalf of the Union and its Member States, of the Protocol (‘the Protocol’) to the Stabilisation and Association Agreement between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, of the other part (‘the Agreement’), to take account of the accession of the Republic of Croatia to the European Union. Pursuant to this Decision the Protocol was applied on a provisional basis, from 1 February 2017 (3).

(2)

In Article 3, the Protocol stipulates that Union concessions for certain fish and fishery products originating in Bosnia-Herzegovina are to be granted according to Annex II to the Protocol. Therefore, the tariff quota volumes for trout, carp and anchovies should be increased by 440, 10 and 20 tonnes accordingly.

(3)

The Union tariff quotas should be applied in full for the year 2017, as stipulated in Annex II to the Protocol.

(4)

The tariff quotas set out in Annex II to the Protocol should be managed by the Commission on the basis of the chronological order of dates of acceptance of customs declarations for release for free circulation in accordance with Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447 (4).

(5)

Commission Regulation (EU) No 354/2011 (5) should therefore be amended accordingly.

(6)

In order to ensure the quota system under the Protocol is applied and managed smoothly, this Regulation should apply from the same date as that of the provisional application of the Protocol.

(7)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Regulation (EU) No 354/2011 is amended as follows:
