Summary: On 9 December 2016 the European Commission presented a proposal for a Council Regulation amending Regulation (EU) No 1388/2013 on the management of autonomous tariff quotas. The Council of the European Union adopted the new Regulation on 19 December. Further information: Autonomous tariff quotas are needed for certain products where production in the Union is insufficient to meet the needs of the user industry in the Union. Tariff quotas of the Union should be opened at reduced or zero duty rates for appropriate volumes, without disturbing the markets for such products. In December 2013 the Council adopted Regulation (EU) No 1388/2013 opening and providing for the management of autonomous tariff quotas of the Union for certain agricultural and industrial products, so that Union demand for the products in question could be met under the most favourable conditions. The Regulation is amended every semester with the objective of accommodating the needs of the EU industry. |
