    (4)

    From 21 September 2017, the import duty on products originating in Canada and falling within CN codes 1001 11 00, 1001 19 00, ex 1001 99 00 (high-quality common wheat other than seed), 1002 10 00 and 1002 90 00 is to be calculated in accordance with Article 2(5) of Regulation (EU) No 642/2010.

    (5)
