Council Regulation (EC) No 1340/2008 of 8 December 2008 on trade in certain steel products between the European Community and the Republic of Kazakhstan

Council Regulation (EC) No 1340/2008of 8 December 2008on trade in certain steel products between the European Community and the Republic of Kazakhstan THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 133 thereof,Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,Whereas:(1)Article 17(1) of the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement between the European Communities and their Member States, and the Republic of KazakhstanOJ L 196, 28.7.1999, p. 3. provides that trade in certain steel products are to be subject to a specific agreement on quantitative arrangements.(2)The Bilateral Agreement between the European Community and the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan on trade in certain steel productsOJ L 232, 8.9.2005, p. 64. concluded on 19 July 2005 expired on 31 December 2006. Since 2007 and 2008 autonomous measures established by Council Regulation (EC) No 1870/2006OJ L 360, 19.12.2006, p. 1. and Council Regulation (EC) No 1531/2007OJ L 337, 21.12.2007, p. 2. respectively have governed the trade in certain steel products between the European Community and Kazakhstan.(3)Pending the signature and entry into force of a new agreement or Kazakhstan’s accession to the World Trade Organisation (WTO), quantitative limits starting in 2009 should be established.(4)Given that the conditions that led to the fixing of the quantitative limits for 2007 and 2008 remain largely in place, it is appropriate to set the quantitative limits for 2009 at the same level as that of 2007 and 2008.(5)It is necessary to provide the means to administer this regime within the Community in such a way as to facilitate the implementation of the new Agreement by envisaging as much as possible similar provisions.(6)It is necessary to ensure that the origin of the products in question is checked and appropriate methods of administrative cooperation are set up to this end.(7)Products placed in a free zone or imported under the arrangements governing customs warehouses, temporary importation or inward processing (suspension system) should not be counted against the limits established for the products in question.(8)The effective application of this Regulation calls for the introduction of a requirement for a Community import licence for the entry into free circulation in the Community of the products in question.(9)In order to ensure that these quantitative limits are not exceeded, it is necessary to establish a management procedure whereby the competent authorities of the Member States do not issue import licences before obtaining confirmation from the Commission that appropriate amounts remain available within the quantitative limit in question,HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 11.This Regulation shall apply to imports into the Community of steel products listed in Annex I originating in the Republic of Kazakhstan.2.The steel products shall be classified in product groups as set out in Annex I.3.The classification of products listed in Annex I shall be based on the Combined Nomenclature (CN) established by Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87OJ L 256, 7.9.1987, p. 1..4.The origin of the products referred to in paragraph 1 shall be determined in accordance with the rules in force in the Community.

Article 21.The importation into the Community of the steel products listed in Annex I originating in the Republic of Kazakhstan shall be subject to the quantitative limits laid down in Annex V. The release for free circulation in the Community of the products set out in Annex I originating in the Republic of Kazakhstan shall be subject to the presentation of a certificate of origin, set out in Annex II, and of an import licence issued by the Member States’ authorities in accordance with Article 4.2.In order to ensure that quantities for which import licences are issued do not exceed at any moment the total quantitative limits for each product group, the competent authorities listed in Annex IV shall issue import licences only upon confirmation by the Commission that there are still quantities available within the quantitative limits for the relevant product group of steel products in respect of the supplier country, for which an importer or importers have submitted applications to the said authorities.3.The authorised imports shall be counted against the relevant quantitative limit set out in Annex V. Shipment of products shall be considered as having taken place on the date on which they were loaded onto the exporting means of transport.

Article 31.The quantitative limits referred to in Annex V shall not apply to products placed in a free zone or free warehouse or imported under the arrangements governing customs warehouses, temporary importation or inward processing (suspension system).2.Where the products referred to in paragraph 1 are subsequently released for free circulation, either in the unaltered state or after working or processing, Article 2(2) shall apply and the products so released shall be counted against the relevant quantitative limit set out in Annex V.

Article 41.For the purpose of applying Article 2(2), before issuing import licences, the competent authorities listed in Annex IV shall notify the Commission of the amounts of the requests for import licences, supported by original export licences, which they have received. By return, the Commission shall notify whether the requested amount(s) of quantities are available for importation in the chronological order in which the notifications of the Member States are received (first-come, first-served basis).2.The requests included in the notifications to the Commission shall be valid if they establish clearly in each case the exporting country, the product code concerned, the amounts to be imported, the number of the export licence, the quota year and the Member State in which the products are intended to be put into free circulation.3.As far as possible, the Commission shall confirm to the authorities the full amount indicated in the requests notified for each group of products.4.The competent authorities shall notify the Commission immediately after being informed of any quantity that is not used during the duration of validity of the import licence. Such unused quantities shall automatically be transferred into the remaining quantities of the total Community quantitative limit for each product group.5.The notifications referred to in paragraphs 1 to 4 shall be communicated electronically within the integrated network set up for this purpose, unless for imperative technical reasons it is necessary to use other means of communication temporarily.6.The import licences or equivalent documents shall be issued in accordance with Articles 12 to 16.7.The competent authorities of the Member States shall notify the Commission of any cancellation of import licences or equivalent documents already issued in cases where the corresponding export licences have been withdrawn or cancelled by the competent authorities of the Republic of Kazakhstan. However, if the Commission or the competent authorities of a Member State have been informed by the competent authorities of the Republic of Kazakhstan of the withdrawal or cancellation of an export licence after the related products have been imported into the Community, the quantities in question shall be set off against the relevant quantitative limit set out in Annex V.

Article 51.Where the Commission has indications that products listed in Annex I originating in the Republic of Kazakhstan have been transhipped, re-routed or otherwise imported into the Community through circumvention of the quantitative limits referred to in Article 2 and that there is a need for the necessary adjustments to be made, it shall request that consultations be opened so that agreement may be reached on the necessary adjustment of the corresponding quantitative limits to be made.2.Pending the outcome of the consultations referred to in paragraph 1, the Commission may ask the Republic of Kazakhstan to take the necessary precautionary steps to ensure that adjustments to the quantitative limits agreed following such consultations may be carried out.3.Should the Union and the Republic of Kazakhstan fail to arrive at a satisfactory solution and should the Commission note that there is clear evidence of circumvention, the Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 16a in order to deduct from the quantitative limits an equivalent volume of products originating in the Republic of Kazakhstan and to amend Annex V to this Regulation accordingly.Where a delay in action to address clear evidence of circumvention in a sufficiently expedient way would cause damage which would be difficult to repair, and therefore imperative grounds of urgency so require, the procedure provided for in Article 16b shall apply to delegated acts adopted pursuant to the first subparagraph.

Article 61.An export licence, to be issued by the competent authorities of the Republic of Kazakhstan, shall be required in respect of any consignment of steel products subject to the quantitative limits laid down in Annex V up to the level of the said limits.2.The original of the export licence shall be presented by the importer for the purposes of the issue of the import licence referred to in Article 12.
