COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 793/2006

of 12 April 2006

laying down certain detailed rules for applying Council Regulation (EC) 247/2006 laying down specific measures for agriculture in the outermost regions of the Union

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 247/2006 of 30 January 2006 laying down specific measures for agriculture in the outermost regions of the Union (1), and in particular Article 25 thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

In view of the changes introduced by Regulation (EC) 247/2006 and the experience gained, and in the interests of legislative simplification, Commission Regulations (EEC) No 388/92 (2), (EEC) No 2174/92 (3), (EEC) No 2233/92 (4), (EEC) No 2234/92 (5), (EEC) No 2235/92 (6), (EEC) No 2039/93 (7), (EEC) No 2040/93 (8), (EC) No 1418/96 (9), (EC) No 2054/96 (10), (EC) No 20/2002 (11), (EC) No 1195/2002 (12), (EC) No 43/2003 (13), (EC) No 995/2003 (14), (EC) No 14/2004 (15) and (EC) No 188/2005 (16) should be repealed and replaced by a single Regulation laying down rules for applying Regulation (EC) No 247/2006.

 

(2)

Detailed implementing rules should be laid down for drawing up and amending the forecast supply balances for products eligible under the specific supply arrangements.

 

(3)

Certain agricultural products which are exempt from import duties already require an import licence. In the interests of administrative simplification, the import licence should be used to support the arrangements for exemption from import duties.

 

(4)

A document should also be adopted to support the arrangements for exemption from import duties for other agricultural products which do not require an import licence. An exemption certificate, drawn up on the import licence form, should be used for this purpose.

 

(5)

Detailed rules should be laid down for fixing the amount of aid for the supply of products under the specific supply arrangements. Such rules should take account of the additional costs of supply to the outermost regions due to their remote and insular nature, which constitute a burden that severely handicaps them. In order to maintain the competitiveness of Community products, this aid should take account of the prices applied to exports.

 

(6)

The aid scheme for Community products should be managed by means of a certificate, called an ‘aid certificate’, using the import licence form.

 

(7)

Management of the specific supply arrangements requires the introduction of detailed rules on the issue of the aid certificate, which derogate from the normal rules applicable to import licences pursuant to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1291/2000 of 9 June 2000 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences and advance fixing certificates for agricultural products (17).

 

(8)

Management of the specific supply arrangements must allow two objectives to be pursued. First, it should promote the rapid issue of licences and certificates, particularly by no longer requiring a security to be lodged beforehand in all cases, and the rapid payment of aid for supplies of Community products. Second, it should guarantee the control and monitoring of operations and provide the administrative authorities with the instruments they need to ascertain that the objectives of the scheme are being attained, those being to secure a regular supply of certain agricultural products and to offset the effects of the geographical situation of the outermost regions by ensuring that the advantages of the scheme are actually passed on to the stage at which the products destined for the end‐users are placed on the...
