COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1555/84

of 4 June 1984

amending Regulation (EEC) No 3671/81 on imports into the Community of certain agricultural products originating in Turkey

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 Regulation (EEC) No 3671/81 (1) lays down that where, pursuant to Articles 25 and 25a of Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 (2), the Commission introduces a countervailing charge on imports of certain fruit and vegetables originating in Turkey, it shall at the same time reintroduce for these products a customs duty at the level which applied before 1 January 1981;

Whereas the application of the abovementioned provision may, in the case of certain products, result in a customs duty being imposed on Turkey which is higher than that which, since 1 January 1981, has been agreed for all non-member supplier countries which do not enjoy special arrangements as regards imports into the Community;

Whereas Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 3671/81 should be modified accordingly; whereas, moreover, account should be taken of the arrangements applicable to imports originating in Turkey under the Association Agreement as at 31 December 1980,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

- for those products originating in Turkey which enjoy a special arrangement under the Association Agreement, the duty under the Common Customs Tariff currently applicable to countries covered by the most-favoured nation clause, reduced in accordance with the provisions of the preferential scheme in force as at 31 December 1980.'
