Commission Regulation (EC) No 650/98 of 23 March 1998 amending Council Regulation (EC) No 1981/94 opening and providing for the administration of Community tariff quotas for certain products originating in Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Malta, Morocco, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, Tunisia and Turkey, and providing detailed rules for extending and adapting these tariff quotas
L 88/8 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 24. 3. 98 COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 650/98 of 23 March 1998 amending Council Regulation (EC) No 1981/94 opening and providing for the administration of Community tariff quotas for certain products originating in Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Malta, Morocco, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, Tunisia and Turkey, and providing detailed rules for extending and adapting these tariff quotas THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, for the tariff quotas volumes of some products are increased, between 1 January 1997 and 1 January 2000, in four yearly and equal steps, representing 3 % of these volumes; whereas the increases provided by the Agree- ment for implementation in 1997 could not take place because of the entry into force of the Agreement on 1 March 1998 and, consequently, the volumes of the tariff quotas applicable in 1998 take account of two increases; Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1981/94 of 25 July 1994 opening and providing for the administra- tion of Community tariff quotas for certain products originating in Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Malta, Morocco, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, Tunisia and Turkey, and providing detailed rules for extending and adapting these tariff quotas (1), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1667/97 (2), and in particular Articles 6 and 7 thereof, Whereas, as a means of implementing the new conces- sions provided in the abovementioned Agreements, Regu- lation (EC) No 1981/94 should be amended; whereas this amendment must also take account of the necessary tech- nical adjustments resulting from amendments of the Combined Nomenclature and of TARIC subdivisions; whereas, since Regulation (EC) No 1981/94 has been amended several times, it seems desirable to incorporate its Annexes I to X in a single regulation; trade arrangements Whereas Protocol No 1 of Decision No 1/98 of the EC-Turkey Association Council of 25 February 1998 on agricultural products (3), the for provides the new preferential arrangements applied by the Community to imports of agricultural products origin- ating in Turkey; whereas these preferential arrangements provide for community tariff quotas to be opened for certain products; whereas, following the adoption of these new arrangements by the Council in the beginning of 1998, the future concession of 3 % to be applied to unlimited quantities of hazelnuts or filberts originating in Turkey and imported into the Community, cannot enter into force until 1999; whereas it would therefore be suit- able to maintain for imports of hazelnuts or filberts in 1998 the current concession of 0 % within the framework of a tariff quota; Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee, HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: Article 1 Annexes I to X to Regulation (EC) No 1981/94 shall be replaced by Annexes I to X to this Regulation. Whereas the Euro-Mediterranean Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Tunisian Republic, of the other part (4), enters into force on 1 March 1998; whereas this agreement provides that certain products originating in Tunisia can benefit from tariff concessions within the framework of community tariff quotas, when imported into the Community; whereas the (1) OJ L 199, 2. 8. 1994, p. 1.
