COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 852/2011

of 24 August 2011

amending Regulation (EU) No 397/2010 as regards the quantitative limit for the exports of out-of-quota isoglucose until the end of the 2010/11 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 61, first paragraph, point (d), in conjunction with Article 4, thereof,

Whereas:

(1) According to Article 61, first subparagraph, point (d) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007, isoglucose produced in excess of quota during a marketing year may be exported only within the quantitative limit to be fixed.

(2) Detailed implementing rules for out-of-quota exports, in particular those concerning the issue of export licences, are laid down by Commission Regulation (EC) No 951/2006 of 30 June 2006 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 as regards trade with third countries in the sugar sector (2). Nevertheless, the quantitative limit should be fixed per marketing year, according to market opportunities.

(3) Commission Regulation (EU) No 397/2010 of 7 May 2010 fixing the quantitative limit for exports of out-of-quota sugar and isoglucose until the end of the 2010/11 marketing year (3) fixed the quantitative limit for the exports of out-of-quota isoglucose at 50 000 tonnes. Large part of this quantity has already been used. As of 12 July 2011 only 16 520 tonnes remain available, i.e. 67 % of the available quantity has been already used. Given the possible market outlets for out-of-quota isoglucose, it is appropriate to increase the export quantitative limit by 15 000 tonnes.

(4) Regulation (EU) No 397/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly.

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