COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3021/82

of 12 November 1982

re-establishing the levying of customs duties on carbonate of barium, falling within subheading 28.42 A ex VII and originating in China, to which the preferential tariff arrangements set out in Council Regulation (EEC) No 3601/81 apply

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3601/81 of 7 December 1981 applying generalized tariff preferences for 1982 in respect of certain industrial products originating in developing countries (1), and in particular Article 12 thereof,

Whereas, in pursuance of Article 1 of that Regulation, duties on the products listed in Annex B originating in each of the countries or territories listed in Annex C shall be totally suspended and the products as such shall, as a general rule, be subject to statistical surveillance every three months on the reference base referred to in Article 11;

Whereas, as provided for in Article 11, where the increase of preferential imports of those products, originating in one or more beneficiary countries, causes, or is likely to cause, economic difficulties in the Community or in a region of the Community, the levying of customs duties may be re-established once the Commission has had an appropriate exchange of information with the Member States; whereas, for this purpose, the reference base to be considered shall be, as a general rule, 120 % of the highest maximum amount valid for 1980;

Whereas, in the case of carbonate of barium falling within subheading 28.42 A ex VII, the reference base is fixed at 791 430 ECU; whereas, on 21 October 1982, imports of these products into the Community originating in China reached that reference base; whereas the exchange of information organized by the Commission has demonstrated that continuance of the preference scheme causes economic difficulties in a region of the Community; whereas customs duties in respect of the products in question must therefore be re-established against China,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

As from 16 November 1982, the levying of customs duties, suspended in pursuance of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3601/81, shall be re-established on imports into the Community of the following products originating in China:

1.2 // // // CCT heading No // Description // // // 28.42 A ex VII (NIMEXE code 28.42-72) // Carbonate of barium // //

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following 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.

Done at Brussels, 12 November 1982.
