Eight years of experience have shown the need to provide for an expiry date of the suspensions listed in the Annex to this Regulation to ensure that account is taken of technological and economic changes. This should not exclude the premature termination of certain measures or their continuation beyond this period, if economic reasons are submitted, in accordance with the principles laid down in the Commission Communication concerning autonomous tariff suspensions and quotasOJ C 128, 25.4.1998, p. 2..(5)Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 should therefore be amended accordingly,HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
