Community demand for these products should be met under the most favourable conditions. Community tariff quotas should therefore be opened at reduced or zero rates of duty for appropriate volumes, and increased or extended in the case of certain existing tariff quotas, while avoiding any distur- bance to the markets for these products. (2)  Itis no longer in the Community's interest to maintain a Community tariff quota on some of the products covered by Regulation (EC) No 2505/96, and those products should therefore be removed from the table in Annex [ thereto. (3)  Having regard to the economic importance of this Regu- lation for European industry it is necessary to invoke the grounds of urgency referred to in point I(3) of the Additional Protocol to the Treaty of Amsterdam on the role of national parliaments in the European Union. (4)  Regulation (EC) No 2505/96 should therefore be amended accordingly, () OJ L 345, 31.12.1996, p. 1. Regulation as last amended by Regula- tion (EC) No 2802/2000 (O] L 331, 27.12.2000, p.55).
