COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 967/2006
of 29 June 2006
laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 as regards sugar production in excess of the quota
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 of 20 February 2006 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector (1), and in particular Articles 13(2), 15(2) and 40(1)(c) and (2)(d) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Under Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006, production in excess of the quota may be used for the processing of certain products, carried forward to the next marketing year or used for the specific supply arrangements for the outermost regions, in accordance with Council Regulation (EC) No 247/2006 laying down specific measures for agriculture in the outermost regions of the Union (2), or exported within certain limits. |
(2) |
Under Article 15 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006, a surplus amount is to be levied on quantities of surplus sugar, surplus isoglucose and surplus inulin syrup not carried forward or exported, or used for the specific supply arrangements for the outermost regions, and on industrial sugar, industrial isoglucose and industrial inulin syrup for which no proof has been supplied, by a date to be determined, that it has been processed into one of the products referred to in Article 13(2) of that Regulation; and on quantities withdrawn from the market in accordance with Article 19 of that Regulation and for which the obligations provided for in Article 19(3) thereof are not met. |
(3) |
The levy should be fixed at a high level in order to avoid the accumulation of quantities produced in excess of the quota and likely to disrupt the market. A fixed amount, equal to the level of full import duties on white sugar, would appear appropriate to this end. |
(4) |
Certain provisions should be laid down for cases where sugar, isoglucose or inulin syrup in excess of the quota may be destroyed and/or become unrecoverable, and for cases of force majeure making it impossible to use the products as provided for in Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006. |
(5) |
Article 17 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 provides for approval of undertakings processing sugar, isoglucose or inulin syrup into one of the industrial products referred to in Article 13(2) of that Regulation. The content of the application for approval which processors must submit to the competent authorities of the Member States should be specified. The commitments these undertakings must make in return for approval must be laid down, in particular the obligation to keep an up-to-date record of the quantities of raw materials entering, being processed in and leaving the undertaking in the form of processed products. To ensure that the arrangements for industrial sugar, industrial isoglucose and industrial inulin syrup operate correctly, provision must be made for the imposition of penalties on processors who do not meet their obligations or their commitments. |
(6) |
Conditions should be laid down for the use of the industrial sugar, industrial isoglucose and industrial inulin syrup referred in Article 12(a) of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 as regards, in particular, the contracts for deliveries of raw materials between manufacturers and processors, and the list of products referred to in that point should be drawn up in accordance with Article 13(2) of that Regulation, taking into account the experience gained as regards supplies of sugar to the chemicals and pharmaceutical industries. |
(7) |
To make the control system more effective, the use of industrial sugar, industrial isoglucose and... |
