COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 1070/2012

of 14 November 2012

amending Regulation (EC) No 2535/2001 as regards non-quota preferential imports of milk and milk products and the quota for imports of dairy products originating in the Republic of Moldova

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1), and in particular Article 144(1) and Article 148(c), in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Chapter I of Title 2 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2535/2001 of 14 December 2001 laying down detailed rules for applying Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 as regards the import arrangements for milk and milk products and opening tariff quotas (2) applies to the import quota No 09.4210 provided for in Council Regulation (EC) No 55/2008 (3) and allocated to the Republic Moldova until 2012. Regulation (EU) No 581/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4) extended the application of Regulation (EC) No 55/2008 until the end of 2015. It is therefore appropriate that Regulation (EC) No 2535/2001 takes into account the extension of the duration of the quota No 09.4210.

(2)

Chapter II of Title 2 of Regulation (EC) No 2535/2001 provides for rules concerning preferential non-quota imports under specific agreements and acts. It is appropriate, for the sake of proper administration of the imports, that those rules apply also to all other preferential non-quota imports which are covered by Article 2 of that Regulation. In addition, it is appropriate, for the sake of clarity and transparency, that those rules include the obligation to specify the preferential import duty in box 24 of licence applications and licences.

(3)

Regulation (EC) No 2535/2001 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(4)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Where ex CN codes are indicated, the applicability of the preferential scheme is determined on the basis of the CN code and the corresponding description taken jointly.‧
