    COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 98/2008

    of 1 February 2008

    amending several regulations as regards the combined nomenclature codes for certain beef and veal products

    THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

    Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

    Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 234/79 of 5 February 1979 on the procedure for adjusting the Common Customs Tariff nomenclature used for agricultural products (1), and in particular Article 2(1) thereof,

    Whereas:

    (1)

    Commission Regulation (EC) No 1214/2007 of 20 September 2007 amending Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (2) provides for amendments to the combined nomenclature for certain beef and veal products.

    (2)

    Regulations amending Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 (3) in previous years have also introduced changes to the combined nomenclature for certain beef and veal products, and not all of these amendments are reflected in the following Regulations governing the common organisation of the market in beef and veal: Council Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in beef and veal (4); Commission Regulation (EC) No 1731/2006 of 23 November 2006 on special detailed rules for the application of export refunds in the case of certain preserved beef and veal products (5) and Commission Regulation (EC) No 545/2007 of 16 May 2007 opening and providing for the administration of an import tariff quota for frozen beef intended for processing (1 July 2007 to 30 June 2008) (6).

    (3)

    Regulations (EC) No 1254/1999, (EC) No 1731/2006 and (EC) No 545/2007 should therefore be amended accordingly.

    (4)

    The amendments provided for in this Regulation should apply from 1 January 2008, the date of entry into force of Regulation (EC) No 1214/2007.

    (5)

    The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
