THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Whereas, however, since work to establish Community equivalence for all the third countries concerned had not been completed, Article 15 (2a) of that Directive permitted Member States other than Spain and Portugal to extend to 31 March 1986, the period of validity of equivalence which they had already determined in respect of certain countries not covered by the Community equivalences;
Whereas the said work is still incomplete and the said final dates should be replaced by dates determined in accordance with Member States' obligations under the common rules on plant health laid down by Council Directive 77/93/EEC of 21 December 1976 on protective measures against the introduction into the Member States of organisms harmful to plants or plant products (4), as last amended by Commission Directive 86/651/EEC (5);
Whereas this measure does not affect the aforementioned obligations and may only be used in accordance therewith,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
Article 1
In Article 15 (2a) of Directive 66/403/EEC:
(a) in the first sentence '31 March 1986' is replaced by '31 March 1987', and the following is added:
'; it being understood that these decisions may only be used in accordance with the Member States' obligations under the common rules on plant health laid down by Directive 77/93/EEC';
(b) the second sentence is replaced by the following:
'With regard to Spain and Portugal, "1 July 1975" is replaced by "1 January 1986".'
Article 2
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1301/97 of 4 July 1997 amending Regulation (EC) No 913/97 adopting exceptional support measures for the pigmeat market in Spain
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in pigmeat (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 3290/94 (2), and in particular Article 20 thereof,
Whereas, because of the outbreak of classical swine fever in certain production regions in Spain, exceptional measures to support the pigmeat market were adopted for this Member State in Commission Regulation (EC) No 913/97 (3);
Whereas, because of continuing veterinary and trade restrictions adopted by the Spanish authorities and their extension to new areas, the number of pigs for fattening and piglets which may be delivered to the competent authorities should be increased, thus allowing the continuation of the exceptional measures in the coming weeks;
Whereas, because of the persistence of classical swine fever in Spain, it is appropriate to reduce the minimum weight of eligible pigs for fattening thus reducing expenditure on this measure and the volume of pigs to be processed in rendering plants;
Whereas the rapid and efficient application of the exceptional market support measures is one of the best ways of combating the spread of classical swine fever; whereas the application of the provisions of this Regulation from 18 June 1997 is therefore justified;

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 167/2005
of 31 January 2005
fixing the rates of refunds applicable to certain products from the sugar sector exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex I to the Treaty
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the market in sugar (1), and in particular Article 27(5)(a) and (15),
Whereas:
(1)
Article 27(1) and (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 1260/2001 provides that the differences between the prices in international trade for the products listed in Article 1(1)(a), (c), (d), (f), (g) and (h) of that Regulation and prices within the Community may be covered by an export refund where these products are exported in the form of goods listed in Annex V to that Regulation. Commission Regulation (EC) No 1520/2000 of 13 July 2000 laying down common implementing rules for granting export refunds on certain agricultural products exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex I to the Treaty and the criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds (2) specifies the products for which a rate of refund should be fixed, to be applied where these products are exported in the form of goods listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001.
(2)
In accordance with Article 4(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1520/2000, the rate of the refund per 100 kg for each of the basic products in question must be fixed for each month.
(3)
Article 27(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 lays down that the export refund for a product contained in a good may not exceed the refund applicable to that product when exported without further processing.
(4)
The refunds fixed under this Regulation may be fixed in advance as the market situation over the next few months cannot be established at the moment.
(5)
The commitments entered into with regard to refunds which may be granted for the export of agricultural products contained in goods not covered by Annex I to the Treaty may be jeopardised by the fixing in advance of high refund rates. It is therefore necessary to take precautionary measures in such situations without, however, preventing the conclusion of long-term contracts. The fixing of a specific refund rate for the advance fixing of refunds is a measure which enables these various objectives to be met.
(6)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The rates of the refunds applicable to the basic products listed in Annex A to Regulation (EC) No 1520/2000 and in Article 1(1) and (2) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, and exported in the form of goods listed in Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, are fixed as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 February 2005.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas Decision 90/424/EEC for the possibility of a financial contribution from the Community for the eradication and monitoring of the deseases listed in the Annex to that Decision; whereas the list may be supplemented or amended to take account of developments in the health situation in the Community;
Whereas Council Regulation 86/649/EEC of 16 December 1986 introducing a Community financial measure for the eradication of African swine fever in Portugal (2), and Council Decision 86/650/EEC of 16 December 1986 introducing a Community financial measure for the eradication of African swine fever in Spain (3) provided financial assistance for a period of five years; whereas this period of five years comes to an end during the first half of 1992;
Whereas the eradication plans adopted and implemented within the framework of Decisions 86/649/EEC and Decision 86/650/EEC have resulted in substantial improvements in the health situation; whereas it has not, however, been possible to eliminate African swine fever altogether;
Whereas, in the light of these developments, African swine fever should be added to the disease list, Group 1 of the Annex to Decision 90/424/EEC so that a Community financial contribution can be obtained for the implementation of programmes fro the eradication and monitoring of the disease,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The following indent shall be added to Group 1 of the Annex to Decision 90/424/EEC:
