THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 of 17 December 1999 on the common organisation of the markets in fishery                           and aquaculture products(1), and in particular Article 29(1) and (5) thereof,                        

Whereas:

(1)Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 provides that reference prices valid for the Union may be fixed each year, by product category,                              for products that are the subject of a tariff suspension under Article 28(1). The same holds for products which, by virtue                              of being either the subject of a binding tariff reduction under the WTO or some other preferential arrangements, must comply                              with a reference price.

(2)Pursuant to Article 29(3)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 104/2000, the reference price for the products listed in Annex I, Parts                              A and B to that Regulation, is to be the same as the withdrawal price fixed in accordance with Article 20(1) of that Regulation.

(3)The Union withdrawal prices for the products concerned are fixed for the 2013 fishing year by Commission Implementing Regulation                              (EU) No 232/2013(2).

(4)Pursuant to Article 29(3)(d) of Regulation (EC) No 104/2000, the reference price for products other than those listed in Annexes                              I and II to that Regulation is to be established in particular on the basis of the weighted average of customs values recorded                              on the import markets or in the ports of import in the three years immediately preceding the date on which the reference price                              is fixed.

(5)There is no need to fix reference prices for those products falling under the criteria laid down in Article 29(1) of Regulation                              (EC) No 104/2000 which are imported from third countries in insignificant volumes.

(6)In order to allow a swift application of the reference prices in the year 2013, this Regulation should enter into force on                              the day following that of its publication in the *Official Journal of the European Union*.

(7)The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Regulation                              (EC) No 104/2000,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
