         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2015/1733
   of 28 September 2015
   fixing the allocation coefficient to be applied to the quantities covered by applications for import licences lodged from 8 to 14 September 2015 under the tariff quotas opened by Regulation (EC) No 891/2009 in the sugar sector and suspending submission of applications for such licences
   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 188(1) and (3) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Commission Regulation (EC) No 891/2009 (2) opened annual tariff quotas for imports of sugar products.

               (2)

               The quantities covered by import licence applications lodged from 8 to 14 September 2015 for the subperiod from 1 to 31 October 2015 exceed the quantities available under order numbers 09.4320 and 09.4321. The extent to which import licences may be issued should therefore be determined by fixing the allocation coefficient to be applied to the quantities requested, calculated in accordance with Article 7(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1301/2006 (3). Submission of further applications for import licences under those order numbers should be suspended until the end of the quota period.

               (3)

               The quantities covered by import licence applications lodged from 8 to 14 September 2015 for the subperiod from 1 to 31 October 2015 are equal to the quantities available under order numbers 09.4317 and 09.4319. Submission of further applications for import licences under those order numbers should be suspended until the end of the quota period.

               (4)

               In order to ensure the efficient management of the measure, this Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union,

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   1.   The quantities covered by import licence applications lodged under Regulation (EC) No 891/2009 from 8 to 14 September 2015 shall be multiplied by the allocation coefficient set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
   2.   Submission of further applications for import licences under the order numbers indicated in the Annex shall be suspended until the end of the 2015/2016 quota period.
   Article 2
   This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

      This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

title: Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 505/2013 of 31 May 2013 laying down further exceptional measures as regards the release of out-of-quota sugar and isoglucose on the Union market at reduced surplus levy during the 2012/2013 marketing year

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 505/2013
   of 31 May 2013
   laying down further exceptional measures as regards the release of out-of-quota sugar and isoglucose on the Union market at reduced surplus levy during the 2012/2013 marketing year
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1) and in particular Article 64(2) and Article 186, in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               During the 2011/2012 sugar marketing year, the Union average bulk white sugar ex-factory price reached a level of 175 % of the reference price of EUR 404/tonne and was approximately EUR 275/tonne higher than the world market price. The Union price is now stable at a level of around EUR 700/tonne, which is the highest level reached since the reform of the sugar market organisation and disturbs the optimal fluidity of the sugar supply on the Union market. The expected increase of this already high price level at the beginning of the 2012/2013 marketing year substantiated the risk of serious market disturbances which had to be prevented by the necessary measures. On 18 January, 15 February and 22 March 2013 the Commission adopted Implementing Regulations (EU) No 36/2013 (2), (EU) No 131/2013 (3) and (EU) No 281/2013 (4) providing exceptional measures intended to address the market disturbance. Notwithstanding the measures taken, the current prices registered on the market show that it is necessary to adopt further measures to address the persisting market disturbance.

               (2)

               Based on the estimated supply and demand for 2012/2013, the ending stocks for the sugar market are expected to be lower by at least 0,5 million tonnes than in 2011/2012. This figure already takes into account the imports from third countries benefiting from certain preferential agreements.

               (3)

               On the other hand, the expectations of a good harvest lead to estimate the production of nearly 4 600 000 tonnes in excess of the sugar quota set out in Article 56 of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007. Taking account of the foreseeable contractual commitments of sugar producers in respect of certain industrial uses provided for in Article 62 of that Regulation and of the 2012/2013 export commitments for out-of-quota sugar, substantial quantities of out-of-quota sugar of at least 1 200 000 tonnes would still be available. Part of this sugar could be made available to alleviate the tight supply of the Union sugar food market and to avoid excessive price increases.

               (4)

               In order to ensure the fluidity of the market, it is necessary to release out-of-quota sugar. It should be possible to take such a measure each time it is necessary during the marketing year 2012/2013.

               (5)

               Pursuant to Articles 186 and 188 of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 measures may be taken, when necessary, to remedy market disturbances or the risk of disturbances, where, in particular, these result from a significant rise of prices in the Union, provided that this objective cannot be reached by means of other measures available under that Regulation. Given the current market circumstances, Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 does not provide for any specific measures aimed at limiting the high sugar price trend and allowing sugar supply at reasonable prices on the Union market, other than those based on Article 186 of that Regulation.

               (6)

               Article 64(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 empowers the Commission to fix the surplus levy on sugar and isoglucose produced in excess of the quota at a sufficiently high level in order to avoid the accumulation of surplus quantities. Article 3(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 967/2006 of 29 June 2006 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 as regards sugar production in excess of the quota (5) has fixed that levy at EUR 500 per tonne.

               (7)

               For a limited quantity of sugar produced in excess of the quota, a reduced surplus levy should be fixed at a level per tonne allowing for a fair treatment of Union sugar producers, ensuring the good functioning of the Union sugar market and helping to reduce the difference between Union and world market sugar prices without creating risks of accumulation of surpluses in the Union market.

               (8)

               As Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 fixes quotas for both sugar and isoglucose, a similar measure should apply for an appropriate quantity of isoglucose produced in excess of the quota because the latter product is, to some extent, a commercial substitute for sugar.

               (9)

               With a view to increasing the supply, sugar and isoglucose producers should apply to the competent authorities of the Member States for certificates allowing them to sell certain quantities, produced above the quota limit, on the Union market with a reduced surplus levy.

               (10)

               The reduced surplus levy should be paid after the application is admitted and before the certificate is issued.

               (11)

               The validity of the certificates should be limited in time to encourage a fast improvement of the supply situation.

               (12)

               Fixing upper limits of the quantities for which each producer can apply in one application period and restricting the certificates to products of the applicant’s own production should prevent speculative actions within the system created by this Regulation.

               (13)

               With their application, sugar producers should commit themselves to pay the minimum price for sugar beet used to produce the quantity of sugar for which they apply. The minimum eligibility requirements for applications should be specified.

               (14)

               The competent authorities of the Member States should notify the Commission of the applications received. In order to simplify and standardise those notifications, models should be made available.

               (15)

               The Commission should ensure that certificates are granted only within the quantitative limits fixed in this Regulation. Therefore, if necessary, the Commission should be able to fix an allocation coefficient applicable to the applications received.

               (16)

               Member States should immediately inform the applicants whether the quantity applied for was fully or partially granted.

               (17)

               The competent authorities should notify the Commission of the quantities for which certificates with a reduction of the surplus levy have been issued. For this purpose, models should be made available by the Commission.

               (18)

               Sugar quantities released on the Union market of quantities in excess of the certificates issued under this Regulation should be subject the surplus levy set out in Article 64(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007. It is therefore appropriate to provide that any applicant not fulfilling his commitment to release on the Union market the quantity covered by a certificate delivered to him, should also pay an amount of EUR 500 per tonne. This consistent approach is aimed at preventing abuse of the mechanism introduced by this Regulation.

               (19)

               For the purpose of establishing average prices for quota and out-of-quota sugar on the Union market in accordance with Article 13(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 952/2006 of 29 June 2006 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 as regards the management of the Community market in sugar and the quota system (6), sugar covered by a certificate issued pursuant to this Regulation should be considered as quota sugar.

               (20)

               In accordance with Article 2(1)(a) of Council Decision 2007/436/EC, Euratom of 7 June 2007 on the system of the European Communities’ own resources (7) contributions and other duties provided for within the framework of the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector are to constitute own resources. It is therefore necessary to set the date of establishment of the amounts in question within the meaning of Articles 2(2) and 6(3)(a) of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 of 22 May 2000 implementing Decision 2007/436/EC, Euratom on the system of the Communities’ own resources (8).

               (21)

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