Proposal for a regulation
Article 3 a (new)

Article 3a Introduction of tariff rate quotas 1. The Commission shall present quarterly reports to the European Parliament and the Council on the evolution of imports of products covered by this Regulation as from its entry into force. 2. Where the Commission concludes, in its reports, that the volume of imports of one of the products included in Annex I originating from Pakistan exceeds the volume of such imports in the corresponding period of 2010 by twenty percentage points, the Commission shall adopt a delegated act, in accordance with, Article 5 to subject the imports of that product to tariff rate quotas for imports of that product by amending Annex I and Annex II. 3. The tariff rate quota provided for under paragraph 2 shall take the form of a duty free quota limited to the level of imports of such product in 2010 increased by twenty percentage points. When the tariff rate quota is established during the year, imports of such product will be allocated on a pro-rata basis. By derogation from Article 1(1), upon the entry into force of the delegated act, imports in excess of that tariff rate quota shall be subject to most- favoured nation or other applicable duties.

Article 9 a (new)

Article 9a Safeguard clause 1. Where a product falling within the scope of this Regulation originating in Pakistan is imported on terms which cause, or threaten to cause, serious injury to Union producers of like or directly competing products, Common Customs Tariff duties on that product may be reintroduced at any time in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 8(2). 2.

Where the Commission decides to initiate an investigation, it shall publish a notice in the Official Journal of the European Union announcing the investigation. The notice shall provide a summary of the information received and state that any relevant information should be sent to the Commission. It shall specify the period, which shall not exceed four months from the date of publication of the notice, within which interested parties may make their views known in writing. 3. The Commission shall seek all information it deems necessary and may verify the information received with Pakistan and any other relevant source. It may be assisted by officials of the Member States on whose territory verification might be sought, if that Member State so requests. 4. In examining whether there is serious injury, the Commission shall take account of the following factors concerning Union producers where this information is available: — market share, — production, — stocks, — production capacity, — capacity utilisation, — employment, — imports, — prices. This list is not exhaustive and other relevant factors may also be taken into consideration by the Commission for its injury determination. 5. The investigation shall be completed within four months after the publication of the notice referred to in paragraph 2.
