Whereas:
(1)
In accordance with Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, a world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined periodically from the price for ginned cotton recorded on the world market and by reference to the historical relationship between the price recorded for ginned cotton and that calculated for unginned cotton. That historical relationship has been established in Article 2(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001 of 2 August 2001 laying down detailed rules for applying the cotton aid scheme (3). Where the world market price cannot be determined in this way, it is to be based on the most recent price determined.
(2)
In accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, the world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined in respect of a product of specific characteristics and by reference to the most favourable offers and quotations on the world market among those considered representative of the real market trend. To that end, an average is to be calculated of offers and quotations recorded on one or more European exchanges for a product delivered cif to a port in the Community and coming from the various supplier countries considered the most representative in terms of international trade. However, there is provision for adjusting the criteria for determining the world market price for ginned cotton to reflect differences justified by the quality of the product delivered and the offers and quotations concerned. Those adjustments are specified in Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001.
(3)
The application of the above criteria gives the world market price for unginned cotton determined hereinafter,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on 11 October 2005.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas, by letter dated 19 August 1978, the Belgian Government requested the Commission to invoke the procedure laid down in Articles 4 and 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 3195/75 in order to determine whether the apparatus described as "Revco freezer, type ULT 1785" including a thermometer, a liquid nitrogen expansion valve and various attachments should be considered as a scientific apparatus, and if the reply is in the affirmative, whether apparatus of equivalent scientific value is currently being manufactured in the Community;
Whereas in accordance with the provisions of Article 4 (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 3195/75 a group of experts composed of representatives of all the Member States met on 13 December 1978 within the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine this particular case;
Whereas this examination shows that the apparatus in question is a freezer capable of obtaining ultra low temperatures and used more especially to store mutant strains of yeast;
