COUNCIL DECISION of 3 March 1986 establishing arrangements for trade between Spain and Portugal on the one hand and the overseas countries and territories (OCT) on the other (86/47/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 136 thereof,
Having regard to the draft Decision submitted by the Commission,
Whereas the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal provides for adjustments and transitional measures to apply to trade between those Member States on the one hand and certain third countries on the other;
Whereas it is necessary to lay down special provisions for the implementation by the Kingdom of Spain and the Portuguese Republic as from 1 March 1986 of the trade arrangements established by acts adopted pursuant to Articles 131 to 135 of the EEC Treaty for the benefit of the overseas countries and territories (OCT);
Whereas for the time being such special provisions should be applicable only until 31 December 1986, taking account of the arrangements in force in the ACP States;
Whereas quantitative restrictions which may be applied by the Kingdom of Spain or the Portuguese Republic vis-à-vis third countries in respect of products listed in Annex II to the Treaty are covered by general provisions adopted by the Council applying to all third countries;
Whereas the Commission should therefore lay down implementing provisions in respect of these measures;
Whereas the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla are not part of the customs territory of the Community and in principle autonomous acts on acts adopted under agreement of Community institutions concerning the common commercial policy and relating directly to the import or export of goods do not apply to the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla;
Whereas Article 7 of Protocol N 2 to the Act of Accession concerning the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla provides, however, that customs duties, charges having equivalent effect and trade arrangements applying to imports into the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla of goods coming from a third country may not be less favourable than those applied by the Community in accordance with its international commitments or preferential arrangements vis-à-vis such third country, provided the third country in question accords imports from the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla the same treatment as it accords those from the Community;
Whereas provisions should therefore be adopted for implementation of the trade arrangements applicable to imports into the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla of products originating in the OCT,
HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:
Article 1
From 1 March to 31 December 1986 the Kingdom of Spain and the Portuguese Republic shall apply the same arrangements to imports originating in the OCT as are applied by the other Member States of the Community, having regard to the specific provisions set out in the Annex hereto.
Article 2
This Decision shall take effect on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply from 1 March 1986.

determining the world market price for unginned cotton

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(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 1
The world price for unginned cotton as referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 is hereby determined as equalling EUR 18,551/100 kg.
