Commission Regulation (EC) No 850/2000
of 27 April 2000
amending Regulation (EC) No 1093/97 laying down marketing standards applicable to melons and watermelons
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 organisation of the market in fruit and vegetables(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1257/1999(2), and in particular Article 2(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Annex I to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1093/97 of 16 June 1997 laying down marketing standards applicable to melons and watermelons(3) sets out rules on the sizing and marking of melons.
(2) In the interest of transparency on the world market, the homogenity criteria laid down in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1093/97 should be tightened up. The standard for melons recommended by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe sets out stricter criteria regarding homogeneity of size for Charentais melons.
(3) Generally the marked for melons is closely dependent on the organoleptic quality of the product. Such organoleptic quality may vary considerably. The sector should be allowed to provide information on the basic criteria regarding ripeness in order to give consumers the freedom to choose fruit of the organoleptic quality that best suits them.
(4) 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
Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1093/97 is amended as follows:

"Where the size is expressed by weight, the largest melon in each package may not weigh over 50 % more than the smallest (30 % more for Charentais melons).
Where the size is expressed by diameter, the diameter of the largest melon may not be over 20 % more than the diameter of the smallest (10 % more for Charentias melons)."
2. The following indent is added to point D of Section VI (Provisions concerning marking):
"- minimum sugar content, measured by refractometer and expressed in degrees Brix (optional)."
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

Whereas, because the veterinary and trade restrictions continue to apply and have been extended to new zones, particularly in the provinces of Zaragoza and Seville, the number of piglets which may be delivered to the competent authorities should be increased so that the exceptional measures can continue from 14 May 1998 and the list of eligible areas laid down in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 913/97 should be adjusted in line with the current veterinary and health situation;

Whereas the restrictions on the free movement of animals have been operative for several weeks in one of the areas located in the province of Zaragoza and the area in the province of Seville, resulting in a substantial increase in the weight of the animals and, consequently, an intolerable situation as regards their welfare; whereas application of the support measures from 14 May 1998 in these new areas is therefore justified;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Pigmeat,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Regulation (EC) No 913/97 is amended as follows:
1. In Article 2(2) 'Decision 97/285/EC` is replaced by 'Decision 98/339/EC`.

Commission Regulation (EC) No 2155/2001
of 5 November 2001
amending Regulation (EC) No 690/2001 on special market support measures in the beef sector
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in beef and veal(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1512/2001(2), and in particular Article 38(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 690/2001 of 3 April 2001 on special market support measures in the beef sector(3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1648/2001(4), lays down in its Article 5(3) that the price to be paid to the successful tenderer shall be adjusted where carcasses taken over differ from the classification class O. In Belgium, a very large part of the cow meat production falls in the E and S classes. However, on the basis on the one hand of the current market prices for those animals and on the other hand of the coefficient of adjustment fixed in the Regulation, no carcasses classified in those two classes are likely to be delivered under the scheme. In order to improve the efficiency of the support measure the coefficient laid down for classes S and E in Annex IV should therefore be increased to a level which better reflects the market reality.
(2) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The coefficient of "1,65" fixed for classes S and E in footnote 1 of Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 690/2001 shall be replaced by "1,87".
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
