COMMISSION DECISION of 1 April 1993 on the release of securities relating to certain licences and certificates issued under the supply arrangements for the Canary Islands introduced by Council Regulation (EEC) No 1601/92
(93/233/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1601/92 of 15 June 1992 concerning specific measures for the Canary Islands with regard to certain agricultural products (1), and in particular Articles 3 (4), 4 (4), 5 (2) and 6 (2) thereof,
Whereas the entry into force of the supply arrangements for the Canary Islands was achieved by centralizing the administrative procedures relating to the submission of applications and the issue of licences and certificates; whereas such centralization of the procedures is justified by the need to verify that the supply system is being correctly administered; whereas, however, the transition from the former to the new arrangements has created certain problems of assessment of the needs of Canarian importers; whereas such importers have, on occasion, applied for the issue of import licences, exemption certificates and aid certificates in respect of quantities exceeding realistic utilization levels;
Whereas the issue of licences, and certificates shall be conditional upon the lodging of a security; whereas that security shall be forfeit in the event of non-observance of the obligation to use the licence or certificate;
Whereas a temporary provision derogating from a strict application of the rules governing such licences and certificates is warranted in order to facilitate the transition from the former to the new supply arrangements for the Canary Islands;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the relevant Management Committees,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
Securities lodged for the import licences, the exemption certificates and the aid certificates:
- which have been issued during the period 1 July to 30 September 1992 pursuant to Articles 3, 4, 5 and 6 of Regulation No 1601/92, and
- which have been used only partly or not at all,
shall be released in accordance with the provisions of Article 27 (2) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2220/85 (2).
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Decision 90/424/EEC of 26 June 1990 on expenditure in the veterinary field (1), as last amended by Decision 94/370/EC (2), and in particular Article 24 thereof,
Whereas Decision 90/424/EEC provides for the possibility of financial participation by the Community in the eradication and surveillance of rabies;

Whereas this programme appears on the priority list of programmes for 1997 for the eradication and surveillance of animal diseases which can benefit from financial participation from the Community and which was established by Commission Decision 96/598/EC (5);
Whereas in the light of the importance of the programme for the achievement of Community objectives in the field of animal health, it is appropriate to fix the financial participation of the Community at 50 % of the costs incurred by France up to a maximum of ECU 820 000;
Whereas a financial contribution from the Community shall be granted in so far as the actions provided for are carried out and provided that the authorities furnish all the necessary information within the time limits provided for;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 113 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas whiting may be caught with mesh sizes in derogation from Community regulations;
Whereas the conditions under which whiting may be harvested should therefore be specified, so as to prevent this activity from involving the additional risk of threatening, through excessive harvesting, the reconstitution of populations already considered as endangered;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86 (2) was intended to have been reviewed during the first half of 1992; whereas new information has been brought to the attention of the Commission;
Whereas the required scientific analyses should nevertheless be completed and the adoption of a permanent redefinition of the conditions under which this fishery may be conducted would therefore be premature;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86 should consequently be amended adequately,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
In Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86, the data and fishing conditions specified for whiting (Merlangius merlangus) within regions 1 and 2, 'Entire region except Skagerrak and Kattegat', shall be replaced by those contained in the Annex to this Regulation.

(2) It results from regular monitoring of the information providing the basis for the verification of the import prices in the poultrymeat and egg sectors and for egg albumin that the representative prices for imports of certain products should be amended taking into account variations of prices according to origin.

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (3),
Whereas the Commission has proposed to the Council a reform of the Community rules in the raw tobacco sector (4); whereas it is not certain that this proposal can be adopted in time to be applied for the 1992 harvest; whereas, therefore, as a precautionary measure, the maximum guaranteed quantities for the 1992 harvest should be fixed at the level fixed for the previous harvest;
