"Mr President, I voted for the report on the proposal for a regulation on the allocation of tariff-rate quotas applying to exports of wood from the Russian Federation to the European Union. Considering the economic importance for the Union of imports of raw wood and the importance that the Russian Federation has for the Union as a supplier of raw wood, the Commission negotiated with the Russian Federation commitments by the latter to reduce or eliminate export duties on raw wood. These commitments, which became part of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) Schedule of Concessions and Commitments on Goods of the Russian Federation upon its accession to the WTO, include tariff-rate quotas for the export of specified types of coniferous wood, a share of which has been allocated for exports to the Union.
In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, the Union is to manage the share of tariff-rate quotas allocated to it in accordance with its internal procedures. Decision 2012/105/EU stipulates that the Commission is to adopt detailed rules on the method of allocating quota authorisations pursuant to the Protocol, as well as any other provisions necessary for the management, by the Union, of the quantities of the tariff-rate quotas allocated to exports to the Union."@en1
