Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3035/80 of 11 November 1980 laying down general rules for granting export refunds on certain agricultural products exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex II to the Treaty, and the criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds (3) as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 4055/87 (4),
Whereas the accession compensatory amounts applicable from 1 March 1986 to trade in goods covered by Regulations (EEC) No 3033/80 and No 3035/80 were determined by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 623/83 (5) as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2574/86 (6);

Whereas this situation arises from misinterpretation of Articles 53 and 213 of the Act of Accession and has created an abnormal situation; whereas it is therefore necessary to rectify, and as a result to amend the Regulations in question;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee concerned,
