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, and in particular Article 177 thereof,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the financing, management and monitoring of the common agricultural policy and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 352/78, (EC) No 165/94, (EC) No 2799/98, (EC) No 814/2000, (EC) No 1290/2005 and (EC) No 485/2008, and in particular Article 66(3), points (c) and (e), thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1237 supplements Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 with regard to the system of licences for agricultural products including the list of products subject to the presentation of an import or export licence.

(2) Article 2(2), point (a), of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1237 in conjunction with its Annex, Part II, point A, provides for a licence obligation for exports of husked (brown) rice falling within CN code 100620 and semi-milled or wholly milled rice, whether or not polished or glazed falling within CN code 100630.

(3) Currently, effective export monitoring can be carried out through other means. In the interest of simplification and for the purpose of alleviating the administrative burden for Member States and operators, the obligation of export licences for husked (brown) rice and semi-milled or wholly milled rice, whether or not polished or glazed should be abolished.

(4) For the sake of clarity it is appropriate to lay down rules concerning the export licences issued for husked (brown) rice and for semi-milled or wholly milled rice, whether or not polished or glazed for which the export licence obligation is abolished by this Regulation and which are still valid on the date of application of this Regulation.

(5) Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1237 should therefore be amended accordingly,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1 Amendment to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1237

In Part II of the Annex to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1237, point A is deleted.
