THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007 ¹, and in particular Article 187, first paragraph, points (a) and (b), thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761 ² lays down the rules for the management of import and export tariff quotas for agricultural products managed by a system of import and export licences, opens import and export tariff quotas for specific agricultural products and provides for specific rules for the administration of those tariff quotas.

(2) Article 55 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761 opens a tariff quota for exports to the Dominican Republic of milk powder of EU origin. The quota is opened for all the products falling under CN codes 0402 10, 0402 21 and 0402 29.

(3) Currently, this export quota covers 13 CN codes. Thus, in order to facilitate these exports of milk powder to the Dominican Republic, the export licence should be valid for all products falling under the CN codes covered by this quota irrespectively of the CN codes explicitly mentioned in the application.

(4) Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/760 ³ supplements Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 as regards the rules for the administration of import and export tariff quotas subject to licences.

(5) Article 9(6) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/760 provides that, for the groups of tariff quotas under order numbers 09.4211, 09.4212, 09.4213 and 09.4290, the reference quantity is to be calculated by cumulating the quantities of products released for free circulation in the Union, which fall within each of the quota order numbers of the group.

(6) In Annex XII to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761, the quota periods for tariff quotas under order numbers 09.4211 and 09.4212 are divided in sub-periods while the quota periods for tariff quotas under order numbers 09.4213 and 09.4290 are not, which renders the calculation of the reference quantity particularly complicated.

(7) To simplify the calculation of the reference quantity, it is appropriate to divide the quota periods for order numbers 09.4213 and 09.4290 into the same sub-periods as those laid down for order numbers 09.4211 and 09.4212.

(8) Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(9) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
