An annual duty free tariff quota of 35 000 tons is opened for imports into the Union of virgin olive oil originating in Tunisia and falling within CN codes 1509 10 10 and 1509 10 90. If this measure represents a threat to the Union olive oil market, the European Commission should have the right to suspend the Duty Free tariff rate quota of 35 000 tons of Tunisian olive oil imports and undertake measures to repair the distortion. The suspension should last, as long as needed for a return to normal conditions within the Union market.
