COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1504/2004

of 19 July 2004

amending and updating Regulation (EC) No 1334/2000 setting up a Community regime for the control of exports of dual-use items and technology

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

 

(1)

Council Regulation (EC) No 1334/2000 (1) requires dual-use items (including software and technology) to be subject to effective control when they are exported from the Community.
 

(2)

In order to enable the Member States and the Community to comply with their international commitments, Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1334/2000 establishes the common list of dual-use items and technology referred to in Article 3 of that Regulation, which implements internationally agreed dual-use controls, including the Wassenaar Arrangement, the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR), the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG), the Australia Group and the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC).
 

(3)

Article 11 of Regulation (EC) No 1334/2000 provides for Annex I and Annex IV to be updated in conformity with the relevant obligations and commitments, and any modifications thereof that each Member State has accepted as a member of the international non-proliferation regimes and export control arrangements, or by ratification of relevant international treaties.
 

(4)

Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1334/2000 should be amended in order to take account of changes adopted by the Wassenaar Arrangement, the Australia Group and the Missile Technology Control Regime subsequent to the amendments made by Regulation No 149/2003 (2) on 27 January 2003.
 

(5)

Council Regulation (EC) No 885/2004 amended Part 3 of Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1334/2000 in order to delete the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland from the current list of countries for which the Community Export Authorisation applies.
 

(6)

For ease of reference for export control authorities and operators, it is necessary to publish an updated and consolidated version of the Annexes to Regulation (EC) No 1334/2000, taking into account all the amendments accepted by the Member States in international forums during the period covering December 2002 to December 2003.
 

(7)
