COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 161/92 of 24 January 1992 ending the charges against the tariff ceilings opened, in the framework of generalized tariff preferences, by Council Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90 in respect of certain industrial products originating in Chile and China

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90 of 20 December 1990 applying generalized tariff preferences for 1991 in respect of certain industrial products originating in developing countries (1), and in particular the second paragraph of

Article 9

thereof,

Whereas, pursuant to Articles 1 and 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90 suspension of customs duties in the context of preferential tariff ceilings is granted within the limits of the individual ceilings set out in column 6 of Annex I to that Regulation in respect of each of the products or group of products under consideration; whereas as provided for in Article 9 (2) of the said Regulation, the Commission may, after 31 December 1991, take measures to stop quantities being charged against any particular preferential tariff limit if these limits were exceeded particularly as a result of regularizations of imports actually made during the preferential tariff period;

Whereas, in respect of the products or the groups of products of the CN codes and origins indicated in the table below, the relevant ceilings were fixed at the levels indicated in that table:

Order No CN code Origin Ceiling (ecu) 10.0120 2905 11 00 Chile 8 820 000 10.0595 4302 30 China 4 190 000

Whereas on 1 January 1992, the sum of the quantities charged during the 1991 preferential period has exceeded the ceilings in question;

Whereas it appears desirable to take measures to stop quantities being charged against the said ceilings in respect of Chile for products of CN code 2905 11 00 (order No 10.0120) and in respect of China for products of CN code 4302 30 (order No 10.0595),

Article 1

The quantities charged against the tariff ceilings opened by Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90 relating to the products and origins indicated in the table below, shall cease to be allowed from 28 January 1992.
