Council Regulation (EC) No 3050/95 of 22 December 1995 temporarily suspending the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on a number of products intended for the constructions, maintenance and repair of aircraft

Official Journal L 320 , 30/12/1995 P. 0001 - 0013

COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 3050/95

of 22 December 1995

temporarily suspending the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties on a number of products intended for the construction, maintenance and repair of aircraft

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 28 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas production of the products referred to in this Regulation is at present inadequate or non-existent within the Community and producers are thus unable to meet the needs of user industries in the Community;

Whereas it is in the Community's interest to suspend the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties for these products completely;

Whereas the decision for the suspension of these autonomous duties should be taken by the Community;

Whereas the regulations temporarily suspending the autonomous duties for aircrafts have not been modified in substance over these last years; whereas, due to this fact, in an effort to rationalize the entry into force of the measures concerned, it appears appropriate not to limit the period of validity of this Regulation, as modification to its scope can be effected by Council regulation in cases of need;

Whereas Council or Commission Decisions amending the combined nomenclature and Taric Codes result in no substantive changes; whereas, in the interests of simplification, provision should be made to empower the Commission, after consulting the Customs Code Committee, to make the necessary amendments and technical adjustments to this Regulation,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties for the products listed in the Annex shall be totally suspended where, provided that the said products are intended for the construction, maintenance and repair of aircraft of an unladen weight exceeding 2 000 kilograms. The control of the end use is effected, conforming to Articles 291 to 304 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 of 2 July 1993 laying down provisions for the implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code (1).

The votes of the representatives of the Member States within the Committee shall be weighted in the manner set out in that Article. The chairman shall not vote.

The Commission shall adopt measures which shall apply immediately. However, if these measures are not in accordance with the opinion of the Committee, they shall be communicated by the Commission to the Council forthwith. In that event, the Commission shall defer application of the measures which it has decided for a period of three months from the date of this communication.

The Council, acting by a qualified majority, may take a different decision within the time limit referred to in the preceding subparagraph.
