Article 6
1.In the context of random checks or checks targeted at operations entailing a risk of fraud, Member States shall take representative samples of imported Basmati rice as laid down in Article 242 of Regulation (EC) No 2454/93. The samples shall be sent to the competent body in the country of origin, as listed in Annex V, for a DNA-based variety test.
The Member States may also carry out variety tests on the same sample in a Community laboratory.
2.If the results of one of the tests referred to in paragraph 1 show that the product analysed does not correspond to what is indicated on the authenticity certificate, the import duty on husked rice falling within CN code 1006 20, provided for in Article 11a of Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003, shall apply.
3.If the tests referred to in paragraph 1 or other information available to the Commission indicate a serious and lasting problem as regards the control procedures applied by a competent body in the country of origin, the Commission may contact the competent authorities in the country concerned. If such contacts fail to yield a satisfactory solution, the Commission may decide to apply the rate of import duty for husked rice falling within CN code 1006 20, provided for in Article 11a of Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003 to the imports checked by the body in question, based on Article 11b of the said Regulation and under the conditions laid down therein.
