THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Whereas:

(1)

Directives 92/79/EEC and 92/80/EEC require every 4 years the Commission to submit to the Council a report concerning the rates and the structure of excise duty of manufactured tobacco, taking into account the proper functioning of the internal market, the real value of the rates of excise duty and the wider objectives of the Treaty.

(2)

That report is to be based in particular on the information provided by the Member States relating to all releases for consumption of manufactured tobacco made in each preceding calendar year.

(3)

In order to ensure early and sufficient information needed for the report referred to in Article 4(1) of Directives 92/79/EEC and 92/80/EEC and to enable a more dynamic follow-up of developments, Member States should provide to the Commission the statistical data on a yearly basis. This data can rely on the data Member States collect for the calculation of the weighted average retail selling price.

(4)

The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Excise Duty,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
