COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 814/87

of 20 March 1987

laying down detailed rules for the application of the special measures for import of olive oil originating in Tunisia

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 561/87 of 23 February 1987 laying down special measures for imports of olive oil originating in Tunisia (1), and in particular Article 4 thereof,

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 561/87 provides for the application of a reduced import levy on a certain quantity of olive oil originating in Tunisia; whereas, under Article 4 of that Regulation, measures must be adopted in order to avoid any deflection of trade and, in particular, ensure that the levy applicable in the case of third countries is charged if the oil is released for consumption in Spain or Portugal;

Whereas the quantity of oil imported from Tunisia must not exceed that specified in Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 561/87; whereas, therefore, the tolerance provided for in Article 8 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3183/80 of 3 December 1980 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences and advance fixing certificates for agricultural products (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3913/86 (3), should not be allowed;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Oils and Fats,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Member States of the Community as constituted at 31 December 1985 in which olive oil originating in Tunisia is released for free circulation in accordance with Regulation (EEC) No 561/87 shall introduce a control system for monitoring the oil from its release for free circulation until is refined, packed or exported from the customs territory of the Community.

2.

Where, after being released for free circulation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 1, the oil is consigned to another Member State the document attesting to the Community status of the goods shall include one of the following forms of wording:

3.

Notwithstanding Article 8 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 3183/80 the quantity released for free circulation must not exceed that specified in boxes 10 and 11 of the import licence. A '0' shall accordingly be entered in box 22 of the said licence.

Where olive oil for which the document, as referred to in paragraph 2, attesting to the Community status of the goods concerned, is released for consumption in Spain or Portugal, an amount equal to the difference between the minimum levy applicable on the day the declaration of release for consumption is accepted and 5 ECU/100 kilograms shall be charged in Spain or Portugal, as the case may be.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
