REGULATION (EU) No 1230/2011 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL

of 16 November 2011

on repealing certain obsolete Council acts in the field of common commercial policy

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 207 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,

Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure (1),

Whereas:

 

(1)

Improving the transparency of Union law is an essential element of the better lawmaking strategy that the institutions of the Union are implementing. In that context it is appropriate to remove from the legislation in force those acts which no longer have real effect.

 

(2)

A number of acts relating to the common commercial policy have become obsolete, even though formally they are still in force.

 

(3)

Council Regulation (EEC) No 1471/88 of 16 May 1988 concerning the arrangements applicable to imports of sweet potatoes and manioc starch intended for certain uses (2) has exhausted its effects since its content has been taken up by successive acts.

 

(4)

Council Regulation (EEC) No 478/92 of 25 February 1992 opening an annual Community tariff quota for dog or cat food, put up for retail sale and falling within CN code 2309 10 11 and an annual Community tariff quota for fish food falling within CN code ex 2309 90 41, originating in, and coming from, the Faroe Islands (3) was intended to open a tariff quota for the year 1992 and has therefore exhausted its effects.

 

(5)

Council Regulation (EEC) No 3125/92 of 26 October 1992 on the arrangements applicable to the importation into the Community of sheepmeat and goatmeat products originating in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, Serbia and the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (4) dealt with a temporary situation and has therefore exhausted its effects.

 

(6)

Council Regulation (EC) No 2184/96 of 28 October 1996 concerning imports into the Community of rice originating in and coming from Egypt (5) was meant to grant customs duty reductions resulting from an international agreement which was subsequently replaced by the agreement signed with Egypt on 28 October 2009 which entered into force on 1 June 2010 and has therefore exhausted its effects.

 

(7)

Council Regulation (EC) No 2398/96 of 12 December 1996 opening a tariff quota for turkey meat originating in and coming from Israel as provided for in the Association Agreement and the Interim Agreement between the European Community and the State of Israel (6) has exhausted its effects since it was based on the Association Agreement signed in 1995 which was subsequently replaced by the Association Agreement signed with Israel on 4 November 2009 which entered into force on the 1 January 2010 and which provided for new tariff rate quotas.

 

(8)

Council Regulation (EC) No 1722/1999 of 29 July 1999 on the import of bran, sharps and other residues of the sifting, milling or other working of certain cereals originating in Algeria, Morocco and Egypt and the import of durum wheat originating in Morocco (7) has exhausted its effects since it was meant as an interim instrument for the period prior to the entry into force of the Association Agreement signed with Algeria on 22 April 2002 which entered into force on 1 September 2005, the Association Agreement signed with Morocco on 26 February 1996 which entered into force on 1 March 2000 and whose agricultural annexes were modified by agreements which entered into force in 2003 and 2005, and the Association Agreement signed with Egypt...
