COUNCIL DECISION
of 27 November 1989
amending Decision 87/279/EEC on Community financial participation with regard to the facilities for the monitoring and supervision of fishing activities in waters falling under the sovereignty or within the jurisdiction of Portugal
(89/609/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),
Whereas, in a declaration attached to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, the Community declared that Community support for monitoring and supervising waters falling under the sovereignty or within the jurisdiction of Portugal might be envisaged;
Whereas Decision 87/279/EEC (1) provides that the Community will participate in the financing of expenditure incurred by Portugal between 1 January 1988 and 31 December 1989 in respect of operations to conclude, modernize and improve its facilities for monitoring and supervision with a view to proper enforcement of the relevant provisions of the common fisheries policy in waters falling under its sovereignty or jurisdiction;
Whereas the said operations include the building of patrol vessels, the purchase of equipment for surveillance aircraft and the purchase and installation of technical and electronic equipment;
Whereas implementation of the said operations has been delayed because of the complexity of designing equipment which must be particularly sophisticated to ensure true effectiveness in the inspection and surveillance of very large fishing areas;
Whereas the investments planned by Portugal cannot therefore be fully implemented before 1 January 1990; whereas the time limit laid down should be deferred in the Community interest to enable the planned work to be completed and to ensure Community financial participation in the expenditure involved;
Whereas the estimates of eligible expenditure must be adjusted on the basis of the observed trend of costs; whereas, therefore, provision should be made for the Commission decision relating to the eligibility of expenditure to be amended,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
Decision 87/279/EEC is hereby amended as follows:
1. Article 1 (2) is replaced by the following:
'2. The Community shall reimburse, at a rate of 50 % and subject to a maximum of ECU 12 million, the eligible expenditure incurred by Portugal from 1 January 1988 to 31 December 1991.'
2. The following sentence is added to point 4 of the Annex:
'The Commission may amend its decision as to the eligibility of expenditure on the basis of the observed trend of costs.'
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Portuguese Republic.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 2067/92 of 30 June 1992 on measures to promote and market quality beef and veal
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing in European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),
Whereas the beef and veal market is affected by a long-term decline in Community consumption; whereas, given the imperative need to achieve a better balance between supply and demand, it has become necessary to reduce the intervention price under the market organization for beef and veal and to amend the premium arrangements and introduce a new premium for the withdrawal from production of young male calves of dairy breeds;
Whereas specific measures undertaken by trade and inter-trade organizations to encourage the consumption and marketing of quality beef and veal in the Community may help to restore a better market balance by stimulating demand; whereas such measures should be used to limit the build-up of surpluses; whereas, therefore it is appropriate to create the possibility for the Community to part-finance such measures;
Whereas measures qualifying for part-financing by the Community should be defined;
Whereas the purpose of such provisions is to establish better balance on the beef and veal market; whereas any expenditure incurred as a result of Community part-financing should be regarded as intervention within the meaning of Article 3 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 729/70 of 21 April 1970 on the financing of the common agricultural policy (3),

Article 1
1. The Community may part-finance measures undertaken by trade and inter-trade organizations to promote and market quality beef and veal. Such part-financing may not exceed 40 % of the actual cost of such measures.
2. Promotion and marketing measures entailing control of meat quality throughout the chain of production, from the producer to the consumer, may be given priority. In such cases Community part-financing may be increased to 60 % of the actual cost of the measure.
Article 2
Measures and programmes undertaken for promotion and marketing purposes must not be biased in favour of any trade mark(s) nor confer advantage on products from a particular Member State.
Article 3
Expenditure incurred as a result of Community part-financing shall be regarded as intervention within the meaning of Article 3 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 729/70.
Article 4
Detailed rules for the application of this Regulation, and in particular rules defining promotion and marketing measures, shall be adopted by the Commission in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 27 of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 (4).
