COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC, EURATOM, ECSC) No 1180/92 of 30 April 1992 fixing a weighting applicable to the remuneration of officials and other servants of the European Communities serving in Munich
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing a Single Council and a Single Commission of the European Communities,
Having regard to the Staff Regulations of officials and the conditions of employment of other servants of the European Communities laid down by Regulation (EEC, Euratom, ECSC) No 259/68 (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC, Euratom, ECSC) No 571/92 (2), and in particular Article 64 of the Staff Regulations and Article 9 of Annex XI thereto and the first paragraph of Article 20 and Article 64 of the Conditions of Employment,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas the Statistical Office of the European Communities has conducted surveys to measure the level of the cost of living in certain places of employment in Germany;
Whereas in its Judgment of 23 January 1992 in Case C-301/90, Commission v. Council, the Court of Justice held that:
'. . .
At the end of 1987 the cost of living in Munich was 8,3 % higher than in Bonn - the capital at that time - and that, in the absence of a specific weighting, such a significant difference reduced the purchasing power of officials serving in Munich in comparison with that of their colleagues serving in Bonn.
In particular, in view of the wide discrepancy found in this case, the obligation to establish a specific weighting could not depend on the number of officials and other servants of the Communities concerned.
Whereas as a result of these considerations the Regulation in question must be declared void insofar as it omits to fix a specific weighting for Munich with effect from 1 January 1988.';
Whereas the above Judgment should be acted on by fixing a specific weighting for Munich with effect from 1 January 1988 and updated from that date to 1 July 1991,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
With effect from 1 January 1988, the weighting applicable to the remuneration of officials and other servants serving in Munich shall be 107,8 %.
Article 2
With effect from 1 July 1988, the weighting applicable to the remuneration of officials and other servants serving in Munich shall be 108,3 %.
Article 3
With effect from 1 July 1989, the weighting applicable to the remuneration of officials and other servants serving in Munich shall be 107,3 %.
Article 4
With effect from 1 July 1990, the weighting applicable to the remuneration of officials and other servants serving in Munich shall be 103,3 %.
Article 5
With effect from 1 July 1991, the weighting applicable to the remuneration of officials and other servants serving in Munich shall be 102,8 %.
Article 6
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities. This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1557/2007
of 20 December 2007
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 318/2006 of 20 February 2006 on the common organisation of the market in the sugar sector (1), and in particular Article 33(2)(a) and (4) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Article 32(1) and (2) of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 provides that the differences between the prices in international trade for the products listed in Article 1(1)(b), (c), (d) and (g) 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 VII to that Regulation.
(2)
Commission Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005 of 30 June 2005 implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 3448/93 as regards the system of 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 is to be fixed, to be applied where these products are exported in the form of goods listed in Annex VII to Regulation (EC) No 318/2006.
(3)
In accordance with the first paragraph of Article 14 of Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005, the rate of the refund per 100 kilograms for each of the basic products in question is to be fixed each month.
(4)
Article 32(4) of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 lays down that the export refund for a product contained in goods may not exceed the refund applicable to that product when exported without further processing.
(5)
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.
(6)
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.
(7)
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 I to Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005 and in Article 1(1) and in point (1) of Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006, and exported in the form of goods listed in Annex VII to Regulation (EC) No 318/2006, shall be fixed as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on 21 December 2007.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
