Article 1This Regulation establishes the rules for determining the reduced agricultural components referred to in Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 3448/93 and for managing quotas opened pursuant to preferential agreements applicable to goods and products covered by Regulation (EC) No 3448/93.
Article 2For the purposes of establishing the reduced agricultural components, the following basic products shall be considered:common wheat,durum wheat,rye,barley,maize, other than maize for sowing,long grain husked rice, hereinafter referred to as "rice",white sugar,molasses,milk powder with a fat content by weight not exceeding 1,5 %, with no sugar or other sweetener added and in immediate packing with a net content greater than 2,5 kg, hereinafter referred to as "PG 2",milk powder with a milk fat content by weight of 26 %, with no sugar or other sweetener added and in immediate packing with a net content greater than 2,5 kg, hereinafter referred to as "PG 3",butter, with a fat content by weight of 82 %, hereinafter referred to as "PG 6".
Article 3The reduced agricultural components covered by this Regulation shall be calculated on the basis of the quantities of basic products considered to have been used in the manufacture of the goods covered by this Regulation. These quantities shall be fixed in Annex I hereto in respect of the relevant specifications in the combined nomenclature.For goods falling within combined nomenclature codes for which Annex I to this Regulation refers to Annex II, such quantities shall be as shown in Annex II. For these latter goods, an additional code shall apply, according to the composition of the goods, as shown in Annex III.
Article 4The quantities of sugar and cereals to be taken into consideration in calculating the additional reduced duties on sugar (AD S/Z) and on flour (AD F/M) for goods covered by Annex II shall be as shown in points B and C of Annex II, for the given contents of sucrose, invert sugar and/or isoglucose, and of starch and/or glucose, respectively. For other goods, these additional duties shall be obtained by considering only the basic products falling within either the sugar or cereal sector.
Article 51.The reduced agricultural components and, where appropriate, the additional reduced duties, applicable to each good eligible for such a reduction in duty, shall be obtained by multiplying the quantities of the relevant basic products used by the basic amount referred to in paragraph 2 and by adding these amounts for all the relevant basic products used in this good.2.The basic amount to be taken into account for calculating the reduced agricultural components and, where appropriate, the additional reduced duties, shall be the amount fixed in ecus provided for by the relevant agreement or determined pursuant to that agreement.3.When a preferential agreement provides for a reduction in the rates of the agricultural components per good instead of a reduction in the basic amounts, the reduced agricultural components shall be calculated by taking into account the agricultural components fixed by the Community Customs Tariff and by applying the reduction provided for by the agreement relating to the country concerned.4.In cases where the reduced agricultural component and, where necessary, the additional reduced duties, determined pursuant to paragraph 1, would be less than ECU 2,4/100 kg, such a component and/or duty shall be fixed at zero.5.The amounts established pursuant to this Article shall be published by the Commission in the Official Journal of the European Communities. Save as otherwise provided in the agreement with the relevant country, the amounts shall be applicable from 1 July to 30 June of the following year. However, if both the duties and coefficients applicable to the basic products remain unchanged, the amounts established pursuant to this Article shall remain unaltered by the Commission which shall publish this information in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
Article 61.The goods eligible for a reduced agricultural component and, where necessary, for a reduced additional duty or a reduction in duties within the quota limits shall be laid down in the agreement or shall be determined pursuant to the agreement relating to the relevant country.2.Where these reductions are applicable within the quota limits, this quota shall be fixed or established pursuant to the relevant agreement.
Article 7Where an agreement provides for the application of a specific amount, whether or not subject to a reduction under a quota, and where the Common Customs Tariff of the Community provides for the application of an ad valorem duty, the amount payable may not exceed the maximum at the rate of the Community customs tariff.
Article 81.For the purposes of this Regulation, "originating goods" shall mean goods that meet the conditions established by:(a)Protocol 4 annexed to the Europe Agreements between the European Community and respectively:Poland,Hungary,Romania,Bulgaria,the Czech Republic,the Slovak Republic;(b)Protocol 3 annexed to the Agreements with:Lithuania,Latvia,Estonia;(c)Protocol 3 of the Free Trade Agreement with:Switzerland,Norway,Iceland;(d)Protocol 4 annexed to the Interim Agreement between the European Community and the State of Israel.2.In trade with Turkey, the provisions of Articles 17 to 23 of Council Decision 96/142/ECOJ No L 35, 13. 2. 1996, p. 1., Decision No 1/95 of the EC-Turkey Association Council of 22 December 1995 on implementing the final phase of the Customs Union shall apply.
Article 9For quantities exceeding the quotas established, the agricultural components applicable to goods covered by Annex B to Regulation (EC) No 3448/93 but not covered by the specific provisions relating to trade in such goods in the country concerned and agricultural components applicable to goods covered by these provisions shall be those of the Common Customs Tariff.If the quota concerns a reduction in ad valorem duties, the duties applicable to such goods for quantities exceeding the quotas covered by the abovementioned provisions shall be those of the Common Customs Tariff or any provided for by the agreement.
Article 10The tariff quotas covered by this Regulation shall be managed by the Commission in accordance with the provisions of Articles 308a to 308c of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93OJ L 253, 11. 10. 1993, p. 1..
Article 11Regulations (EC) No 1294/94 and (EC) No 3238/94 are hereby repealed.
Article 12This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.It shall apply with effect from 1 July 1996.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.ANNEX I

ANNEX IIIAdditional code (by composition)
Starch/glucoseThe content of the goods (as presented) in starch, its degradation products, i.e. all the polymers of glucose, and the glucose, determined as glucose and expressed as starch (on a dry matter basis, 100 % purity; factor for conversion of glucose to starch: 0,9).However, where a mixture of glucose and fructose is declared (in whatever form) and/or is found to be present in the goods, the amount of glucose to be included in the above calculation is that which is in excess of the fructose content of the goods.Sucrose/invert sugar/isoglucoseThe content of the goods (as presented), in sucrose, together with the sucrose which results from expressing as sucrose any mixture of glucose and fructose (the arithmetical sum of the amounts of these two sugars multiplied by 0,95), which is declared (in whatever form) and/or found to be present in the goods.However, where the fructose content of the goods is less than the glucose content, the amount of glucose to be included in the above calculation shall be an amount equal, by weight, to that of fructose.Note:In all cases, where a hydrolysis product of lactose is declared, and/or galactose is found to be present among the sugars, then the amount of glucose equal to that of galactose is deducted from the total glucose content before any other calculations are carried out.Milk proteinsCaseins and/or caseinates forming part of goods shall not be regarded as milk proteins if the goods do not have any constituent of lactic origin.Milk fat contained in the goods at less than 1 %, and lactose at less than 1 %, by weight, are not considered as other constituents of lactic origin.When customs formalities are completed, the person concerned must include in the appropriate declaration: "only milk ingredient: casein/caseinate", if such is the case.
