COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 2881/84

of 12 October 1984

amending Regulation (EEC) No 896/84 laying down additional provisions concerning the grant of export refunds on milk and milk products

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1557/84 (2), and in particular Article 17 (4) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 876/68 of 28 June 1968 laying down general rules for granting export refunds on milk and milk products and criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2429/72 (4), and in particular Article 6 (3) thereof,

Whereas, pursuant to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 896/84 (5), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1161/84 (6), two refund amounts may, at the beginning of a new milk year, be fixed for the same product and destination in order to take the price levels before and after the beginning of the new milk year into account; whereas the granting of the higher refund is conditional on the production of evidence that the product was produced during the period in which the higher of the two prices obtained;

Whereas the two refund amounts may be cancelled one after another in the course of a new milk year; whereas in cases where the refund was fixed in advance by the operator at a time when two refund amounts were applicable, the requirement whereby he should produce the evidence referred to above should, where such evidence relates to the fact that the goods were produced during the new milk year, be waived as from the replacement of the two refund amounts by a single amount;

Whereas Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 896/84 should be redrafted to make its meaning clearer;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,

- in cases where the interventon prices applicable as from the beginning of the new milk year have a negative effect on market prices for the product, on the production of evidence that the product exported was produced before the beginning of the new milk year.

2. The evidence referred to in the first indent of paragraph 1 need not be produced, in the case of an operator who applied for an export licence with advance fixing of the refund, where the customs export formalities referred to in Article 22 (1) (b) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3183/80 (1) are completed on or after the day on which the two refund amounts are replaced by a single amount.
