"I voted in favour of this resolution on temporarily suspending autonomous common customs tariff duties on imports of certain industrial products into the Canary Islands. The Kingdom of Spain has submitted a request to the European Commission, on behalf of the authorities of the Autonomous Community of the Canary Islands, for the temporary suspension of common customs tariff duties on certain industrial products imported into the Canary Islands, so as to strengthen the competitive position of local economic operators and stabilise employment in these outermost regions of the Union. However, in order to ensure that the goods imported, be they raw materials, parts, components or duty-free capital goods, do not distort competition, they will be subject to end-use controls ensuring their use by local companies on the islands. As regards capital goods, they will have to be used by local companies on the islands for a period of at least two years before they can be sold freely to companies situated in other parts of the Union. I agree with the rapporteur that the proposed suspension will help local SMEs and farmers in the Canary Islands to invest and generate jobs in this outermost region of the Union."@en1
