THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 43(3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) |
Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 (1), and in particular the first indent of Article 15(8), Article 16(5), and Article 18(5), empowered the Commission to adopt detailed rules on the basic production levy and the B levy to be collected from quota holders operating in the framework of the common organisation of markets in the sugar sector, the coefficient for the calculation of an additional levy, and the repayment or recovery of part of the levies from beet sellers. |
(2) |
The Commission established the production levies for the 2001/2002 (2), 2002/2003 (3), 2003/2004 (4), 2004/2005 (5) and 2005/2006 (6) marketing years. |
(3) |
Article 18(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provided that when a basic production levy was lower than the maximum amount referred to in Article 15(3) or when the B levy referred to in that Article was lower than the maximum amount referred to in Article 15(4) of that Regulation, adjusted, where necessary, in accordance with Article 15(5), sugar manufacturers were to pay back beet sellers 60 % of the difference between the maximum amount of the levy concerned and the levy to be charged. |
(4) |
In accordance with Article 9(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 314/2002 (7), the amount to be paid by sugar manufacturers to beet sellers in respect of the difference between the maximum basic production levy and the B levy and the chargeable levy, were set for the 2002/2003 (8), 2003/2004 (9) and 2005/2006 (10) marketing years. |
(5) |
In the framework of the reform of the common market organisation for the sugar sector, Council Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 (11) repealed and replaced Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 as of the 2006/2007 marketing year. Regulation (EC) No 318/2006, which was subsequently repealed and incorporated into Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 (12), replaced the variable sugar production levy system of self-financing the production quota regime by a new production charge aimed at contributing to the financing of the expenditure occurring in the sugar sector under the common market organisation for sugar. |
