COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 831/97 of 7 May 1997 laying down marketing standards applicable to avocados
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 of 28 October 1996 on the common organization of the market in fruit and vegetables (1), and in particular Article 2 (2) thereof,
Whereas Regulation (EC) No 2200/96, in Annex I, lists the products for which standards must be adopted; whereas, of the products listed in that Annex, no Community standards have yet been laid down for, inter alia, avocados; whereas it is therefore necessary to lay down marketing standards for those products; whereas, to that end, for the sake of transparency on the world market, account should be taken of the standards recommended for those products by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe;
Whereas application of those standards should have the effect of keeping products of unsatisfactory quality off the market, directing production to meet consumers' requirements and facilitating trade under fair competitive conditions, thereby helping to improve the profitability of production;
Whereas those standards are applicable to all marketing stages; whereas transport over large distances, storage for more than a certain duration and the amount of handling to which products are subject can result in some degree of deterioration owing to the biological development of the product or its perishable nature; whereas such deterioration should be taken into account in the application of the standards to the marketing stages following consignment; whereas, since products of the 'Extra` class must be particularly carefully selected and packed, allowance should only be made for some loss of freshness and turgidity;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fresh Fruit and Vegetables,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
1. The marketing standards applicable to avocados falling within CN code 0804 40 shall be as set out in the Annex.
2. The standards shall apply to all marketing stages under the conditions laid down in Regulation (EC) No 2200/96.
However, at stages following consignment the following tolerances shall be allowed:
(a) a slight loss of freshness and turgidity;
(b) for products other than 'Extra` class, slight deterioration due to biological development and perishability.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 June 1997.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas Article 7 of that Regulation provides that the levying of customs duties on imports of the products in question originating in each of the countries and territories concerned may at any time be reintroduced as soon as the individual ceilings in question are reached at Community level;
Whereas, in the case of 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexachlorocyclohexane falling within CN code 2903 51 00 originating in China the individual ceiling amounts to ECU 537 000; whereas that ceiling was reached on 10 February 1990, by charges of imports into the Community of the products in question originating in China; whereas, it is appropriate to reintroduce the levying of customs duties for the products in question with regard to China,

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Article 18
(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72, it appears that the maximum level of the withdrawal price for these products can justifiably be fixed by applying, to the prices fixed for the 1993 marketing year a variation of the same order as that applied by the Council when fixing the basic prices and buying-in prices for tomatoes for the 1994 marketing year;
