Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (3),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (4),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (5),
Whereas, when the guide price for soya beans is fixed on an annual basis, account should be taken of the objectives of the common agricultural policy and of the contribution which the Community desires to make to the harmonious development of world trade; whereas the objectives of the common agricultural policy are, in particular, to ensure a fair standard of living for the agricultural community and to ensure that supplies are available and reach consumers at reasonable prices;
Whereas the second subparagraph of Article 1 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1491/85 provides more specifically that this price shall be fixed at a fair level for producers, having regard to the supply requirements of the Community; whereas, to this end, a balanced relationship should be maintained between this price and the price of other oil seeds;

Whereas the guide price must be set for a standard quality to be determined by reference to the average quality of beans harvested in the Community; whereas the quality laid down for the 1987/88 marketing year meets this requirement and can accordingly be used for the next marketing year;
Whereas, under Article 68 of the Act of Accession, prices in Spain were set at levels differing from that of the common prices; whereas, pursuant to Article 70 (1) of the Act of Accession, the Spanish prices should be aligned on the common prices each year at the beginning of the marketing year; whereas the rules laid down for this alignment give the Spanish prices set out below,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1 For the 1988/89 marketing year, the guide price for soya beans shall be:
(a) 44,35 ECU per 100 kilograms for Spain;

Article 3 This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply with effect from 1 September 1988.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3713/92 of 22 December 1992 (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1593/93 (4), has deferred for a period of 15 months the date of application of Article 11 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91 for products imported from certain third countries;
