Whereas, in accordance with the provisions laid down in Article 2 (6) of Regulation (EEC) No 473/86, to establish the accession compensatory amounts applicable to certain qualities of olive oil, it may be decided to apply a coefficient to take account of the quantity of olive oil necessary to produce them; whereas Article 2 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 583/86 (2) fixes those coefficients;
Whereas the accession compensatory amounts are different depending on the point when the coefficients are applied during their calculation; whereas, in view of the fact that on account of the change in the basis on which calculations are made, a risk of distortion of competition has been observed; whereas, for the sake of sound administration, the method of calculation used should accordingly be adjusted and the method to be applied should be stipulated;
Whereas the application of the new method should be postponed to avoid any difficulty to operators with respect to current transactions; whereas, for the same reason, account should also be taken of applications for export licences already lodged by the date of entry into force of this Regulation;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Oils and Fats,

For olive oil falling within subheadings 15.07 A II a) and 15.07 A II b) of the Common Customs Tariff, the accession compensatory amounts shall be multiplied by the coefficients 1,04 and 1,20, respectively.
When the accession compensatory amounts are calculated in accordance with Article 2 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 473/86 in respect of the above oil put up in compliance with the conditions laid down for the granting of the consumption aid, the coefficients shall be applied before adding or subtracting the difference between the consumption aid applicable in the Community of Ten and that applicable in the new Member State.'
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply from 17 August 1987. However, for export licences applied for before the date of entry into force of this Regulation, the accession compensatory amounts to be applied shall be those in force on the day of submission of the application.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 1110/91 of 30 April 1991 amending Regulation (EEC) No 3813/89 laying down detailed rules for the application of the system of transitional aids to agricultural income
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 768/89 of 21 March 1989 establishing a system of transitional aids to agricultural income (1), and in particular Articles 6 (3) (a) and 12 thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3813/89 (2), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1279/90 (3), and in particular Article 8 thereof, defines the conditions under which aid may be capitalized;
Whereas experience shows that the conditions set for capitalization in Regulation (EEC) No 3813/89 are too restrictive in that they do not include some systems of aid which reflect at least certain basic features already accepted as warranting treatment as capitalized systems; whereas it would seem to run counter to the objectives of Regulation (EEC) No 768/89 to exclude such systems from benefit under the capitalization facilities provided for in Regulation (EEC) No 3813/89;
Whereas it is therefore necessary to amend certain provisions of Regulation (EEC) No 3813/89;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Agricultural Income Aids,

Article 1
Article 8 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3813/89 is hereby replaced by the following text:

(a) Where capitalization facilities are provided for in a given PAIA all potential beneficiaries fulfilling the conditions set out in Article 1 (2) (a) and (b) of Regulation (EEC) No 768/89 may be offered a choice between capitalized or non-capitalized payments. Where no such choice is granted the Member State concerned shall indicate in the draft PAIA the non-capitalized basis upon which the capitalized payments are to be made.
(b) A capitalized aid may also include one which is partially capitalized where the payments are spread over a number of years provided the pattern of payments over the years in question reflects costs per work unit greater than ECU 1 000 in the first year. The degressivity of such payments shall comply with Article 6.'
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.
