COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 3163/91 of 28 October 1991 opening and providing for the administration of a Community tariff quota for certain melons originating in Israel (1991/92)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 113 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Article 1 of the Fourth Additional Protocol to the Cooperation Agreement between the European Economic Community and the State of Israel (1) provides for the opening of a Community tariff quota for the import into the Community of 9 500 tonnes of melons, falling within CN code ex 0807 10 90, originating in Israel, (from 1 November to 31 May);
Whereas within the limits of this tariff quota, customs duties are to be phased out according to the same timetables and at the same rates as laid down in Articles 75, 243 and 268 of the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal;
Whereas, within the limits of these tariff quotas, Spain and Portugal shall apply customs duties calculated in accordance with the relevant provisions of Council Regulation (EEC) No 4162/87 of 21 December 1987, laying down arrangements for Spain's and Portugal's trade with Israel (2); whereas the Community tariff quotas in question should therefore be opened for the period from 1 November 1991 to 31 May 1992;
Whereas all Community importers should be ensured equal and continuous access to the said quotas and the duty rates laid down for the quotas should be applied consistently to all imports of the product in question into all Member States until the quotas are exhausted; whereas the necessary measures should be taken to provide for effective Community management of the quotas, so that the Member States may draw against the quotas such quantities as they may need, corresponding to actual imports; whereas this method of administration requires close cooperation between the Member States and the Commission;
Whereas, since the Kingdom of Belgium, the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg are united within and jointly represented by the Benelux Economic Union, any operation concerning the administration of these quotas may be carried out by any of its members,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
