fixing the production refund for olive oil used in the manufacture of certain preserved foods

Whereas:
(1) Article 20a of Regulation No 136/66/EEC provides for the granting of a production refund for olive oil used in the preserving industry. Under paragraph 6 of that Article, and without prejudice to paragraph 3 thereof, the Commission shall fix this refund every two months.

It is appropriate to take as a reference period the two-month period preceding the beginning of the term of validity of the production refund.
(3) The application of the above criteria results in the refund being fixed as shown below,

COMMISSION DECISION

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 2000/29/EC of 8 May 2000 on protective measures against the introduction into the Community of organisms harmful to plants or plant products and against their spread within the Community (1), and in particular Article 16(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Under Commission Decision 2004/4/EC (2), tubers of Solanum tuberosum L., originating in Egypt, must not in principle be introduced into the Community. However, for the 2006/07 import season the entry into the Community of such tubers was permitted from ‘pest-free areas’ and subject to specific conditions.
(2)
During the 2006/07 import season, one interception of Pseudomonas solanacearum (Smith) Smith was recorded.
(3)
Egypt has reacted to this interception in a satisfactory way. The respective area has been taken off the list of ‘pest free areas’ for the 2007/08 import season.
(4)
In the light of the information provided by Egypt, the Commission has established that there is no risk of spreading Pseudomonas solanacearum (Smith) Smith with the entry into the Community of tubers of Solanum tuberosum L. from ‘pest-free areas’ of Egypt, provided that certain conditions are satisfied.
(5)
The entry into the Community of tubers of Solanum tuberosum L., originating in ‘pest-free areas’ of Egypt, should therefore be permitted for the 2007/08 import season.
(6)
Decision 2004/4/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(7)
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plant Health,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Whereas the reasons given in the request, according to which the fitting of the stop lamps and the stop lamps themselves do not meet the requirements of Council Directive 76/758/EEC of 27 July 1976 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to end-outline marker lamps, front position (side) lamps, rear position (side) lamps and stop lamps for motor vehicles and their trailers (3), as last amended by Commission Directive 97/30/EC (4), and of Council Directive 76/756/EEC of 27 July 1976 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the installation of lighting and light-signalling devices on motor vehicles and their trailers (5), as last amended by Commission Directive 97/28/EC (6), are well founded; whereas the descriptions of the tests, the results thereof and their compliance with ECE Regulations No 7 and No 48 ensure a satisfactory level of safety;
Whereas the Community Directives concerned will be amended in order to permit the production and fitting of such stop lamps;
Whereas the measure provided for by this Decision is in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Adaptation to Technical Progress set up by Directive 70/156/EEC,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
