Recital 94
Recital 94
(94) A single market involves a trading system at the external borders of the Union. That trading system should include import duties and should continue to include, for a limited period, export refunds and should, in principle, stabilise the Union market. The trading system should be based on the undertakings accepted under the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations and in bilateral agreements, and take into account the Union's development objectives and commitments towards developing countries as well as the commitment of the 2005 WTO ministerial declaration of eliminating all forms of export subsidies until 2013.

Recital 107
Recital 107
(107) Provisions for granting refunds on exports to third countries, based on the difference between prices within the Union and on the world market, and falling within the limits set by the commitments made within the WTO, should serve to safeguard the Union's participation in international trade in certain products falling within this Regulation. Subsidised exports should be subject to limits in terms of value and quantity and should not jeopardise the food production capacity and long-term food security of developing countries. Export refunds should be phased out by 2013 according to the commitment of the 2005 WTO ministerial declaration.

Amendment 438 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 1
Recital 1
(1) The Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions on ‘The CAP towards 2020: Meeting the food, natural resources and territorial challenges of the future’11 sets out potential challenges, objectives and orientations for the Common agricultural Policy (CAP) after 2013. In the light of the debate on that Communication, the CAP should be reformed with effect from 1 January 2014. That reform should cover all the main instruments of the CAP, including Council Regulation (EU) No [COM(2010)799] of […...] establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation)12 . In view of the scope of the reform, it is appropriate to repeal Regulation (EU) No [COM(2010)799] and to replace it with a new Single CMO Regulation. The reform should also, as far as possible, harmonise, streamline and simplify the provisions, particularly those covering more than one agricultural sector, including by ensuring that non-essential elements of measures may be adopted by the Commission by way of delegated acts. Moreover, the reform shall continue the direction of previous reforms towards greater competitiveness and market orientation.
