COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2021/1091

of 2 July 2021

amending Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/159 imposing a definitive safeguard measure against imports of certain steel products

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2015/478 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 2015 on common rules for imports (1), and in particular Article 16 thereof,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2015/755 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2015 on common rules for imports from certain third countries (2), and in particular Article 13 thereof,

(1)

By Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/1029 (3), the Commission has prolonged the safeguard measure on imports of certain steel products imposed pursuant to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/159 (4).

(2)

The Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/1029 contained a clerical error. Whereas the total Tariff Rate Quotas (‘TRQs’) for category 4 was correct, the splits between categories 4A and 4B, as well as, between country-specific and residual TRQs were not correct.

(4)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Safeguards established under Article 3(3) of Regulation (EU) 2015/478 and Article 22(3) of Regulation (EU) 2015/755 respectively,
