Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1706/98 of 20 July 1998 on the arrangements applicable to agricultural products and goods resulting from the processing of agricultural products originating in the African, Caribbean and Pacific States (ACP States) and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 715/90(1), and in particular Article 30 thereof,
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1918/98 of 9 September 1998 laying down detailed rules for the application in the beef and veal sector of Council Regulation (EC) No 1706/98 on the arrangements applicable to agricultural products and certain goods resulting from the processing of agricultural products originating in the African, Caribbean and Pacific States and repealing Regulation (EC) No 589/96(2), and in particular Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 1918/98 provides for the possibility of issuing import licences for beef and veal products. However, imports must take place within the limits of the quantities specified for each of these exporting non-member countries.
(2) The applications for import licences submitted between 1 and 10 April 2002, expressed in terms of boned meat, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1918/98, do not exceed, in respect of products originating from Botswana, Kenya, Madagascar, Swaziland, Zimbabwe and Namibia, the quantities available from those States. It is therefore possible to issue import licences in respect of the quantities applied for.
(3) The quantities in respect of which licences may be applied for from 1 May 2002 should be fixed within the scope of the total quantity of 52100 tonnes.
(4) This Regulation is without prejudice to Council Directive 72/462/EEC of 12 December 1972 on health and veterinary inspection problems upon importation of bovine, ovine and caprine animals and swine, fresh meat or meat products from third countries(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1452/2001(4),

COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 568/76 of 15 March 1976 amending Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 on the common organization of the market in beef and veal
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,

Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in beef and veal (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1855/74 (3), lays down intervention arrangements including the compulsory buying-in of beef and veal meeting certain quality requirements ; whereas, in the light of recent experience, it seems appropriate to provide for the possibility of suspending the intervention measures in regions where prices are relatively high, in order to avoid production for intervention purposes;
Whereas Article 18 of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 provides for the possibility of granting of an export refund ; whereas experience has shown that the measures taken do not always give the trade the certainty as regards amounts and periods of validity of the refunds that it requires ; whereas provision should therefore be made to allow refunds to be fixed in advance,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The following paragraph shall be inserted in Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68:
"3a. However, if during the 1976/1977 marketing year the price recorded in accordance with the preceding paragraphs on the representative markets of a Member State or of a region within a Member State is equal to or more than 95 % of the guide price during a given period, the intervention measures referred to in paragraphs 1 and 3 may be partially or totally suspended in the Member State or region concerned."
Article 2
Article 18 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 shall be replaced by the following:
"4. The Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission in accordance with the voting procedure laid down in Article 43 (2) of the Treaty, shall adopt general rules for the granting and advance fixing of export refunds and lay down criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds."
Article 3
This Regulation shall enter into force on 15 March 1976.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2202/96 of 28 October 1996 introducing a Community aid scheme for producers of certain citrus fruits(1), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 858/1999(2), and in particular Article 6 thereof,
(1) Whereas Article 5(1) of Regulation (EC) No 2202/96 establishes a processing threshold for lemons of 444000 tonnes; whereas Article 5(2) lays down that, for a given marketing year, overrunning of the processing threshold is to be assessed on the basis of the average of the quantities processed under the aid scheme during the three marketing years preceding the marketing year in question, or during an equivalent period; whereas, when an overrun has been established, the aid fixed for the marketing year in question in the Annex to that Regulation is to be reduced by 1 % per tranche of the overrun equal to 4400 tonnes;

REGULATION (EEC) No 1709/74 OF THE COMMISSION of 2 July 1974 on the classification of goods under subheading 20.06 B I of the Common Customs Tariff
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community;
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 97/69 (1) of 16 January 1969 on measures to be taken for uniform application of the nomenclature of the Common Customs Tariff, as last amended by the Act (2) annexed to the Treaty on the accession of new Member States to the European Economic Community and the European Atomic Energy Community, signed at Brussels on 22 January 1972, and in particular Article 3 thereof;
Whereas provision must be made to ensure uniform application of the nomenclature of the Common Customs Tariff as regards classification of cherries which are provisionally preserved in a mixture of water and ethyl alcohol for use, inter alia, in the manufacture of chocolate products;
Whereas heading No 08.11 of the Common Customs Tariff annexed to Council Regulation (EEC) No 950/68 (3) of 28 June 1968, as last amended by Council Regulation (EEC) No 1615/74 (4) of 25 June 1974, covers "fruit provisionally preserved (for example, by sulphur dioxide gas, in brine, in sulphur water or in other preservative solutions), but unsuitable in that state for immediate consumption";
Whereas the "Explanatory Notes" to the Brussels Nomenclature make it clear that the abovementioned heading No 08.11 applies to fruit which has been treated solely to ensure its provisional preservation during transport or storage prior- to use, provided that it remains unsuitable for immediate consumption in that state ; whereas, consequently, this heading excludes fruit which has been treated in a way which does not make it unsuitable for immediate consumption;
Whereas cherries put up in a mixture of water and ethyl alcohol, with an alcoholic strength sufficient for preservation of the fruit for a limited period, are not thereby rendered unsuitable for immediate consumption ; whereas cherries thus treated cannot fall within heading No 08.11;
Whereas, on the other hand, subheading 2006 B I of the Common Customs Tariff applies to fruit otherwise prepared or preserved, containing added spirit, suitable for immediate consumption;
Whereas it follows that the cherries referred to above must fall within subheading 20.06 B I of the Common Customs Tariff;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the Opinion of the Committee on Common Customs Tariff Nomenclature,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Cherries put up in a mixture of water and ethyl alcohol shall be classified as fruit suitable for immediate consumption in the following subheading of the Common Customs Tariff:
20.06 Fruit otherwise prepared or preserved, whether or not containing added sugar or spirit:
B. Other:
I. Containing added spirit

Whereas:
(1) In order to obtain, for one or more of the fish diseases viral haemorrhagic septicaemia (VHS) and infectious haematopoietic necrosis (IHN), the status of approved fish farm situated in a non-approved zone, Member States shall submit the appropriate justifications and the national rules ensuring compliance with the conditions laid down in Directive 91/67/EEC.
(2) Commission Decision 2002/308/EC(3), as last amended by Decision 2002/1005/EC(4), establishes the lists of approved zones and approved fish farms situated in non-approved zones with regard to certain fish diseases.

(4) The justification has been scrutinised by the Commission with the assistance of experts in the Member States.
(5) The documentation provided by Germany for the farm concerned shows that it meets the requirements of Article 6 of Directive 91/67/EEC. The farm therefore qualifies for the status of approved farm in a non-approved zone and should be added to the list of approved farms set out in Annex II to Decision 2002/308/EC.
(6) Decision 2002/308/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
