"I welcomed the Council’s decision. With the accession of Bulgaria and Romania, the EU has enlarged its customs union. Consequently, the EU is obliged under WTO rules to enter into negotiations with WTO Members having negotiating rights in the schedules of any of the acceding Members States in order to agree on compensatory adjustment. Such adjustment is due if the adoption of the EU’s external tariff regime results in an increase in tariff beyond the level of the acceding country’s commitment in the WTO. This agreement concerns sheep, goat meat and high-quality beef. New Zealand is entitled to a restoration of its trading rights, which were eroded slightly due to the enlargement of the EU customs union to include Romania and Bulgaria. The Commission has proposed an increase of the tariff rate quota for the products in question as the most appropriate instrument of compensation."@en1
