ICOMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 2999/92
of 15 October 1992
laying down detailed rules for the application of the specific measures for the supply of
processed fruit and vegetable products to Madeira
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the T reaty establishing the EuropeanEconomic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1600/92
of 15 June 1992 concerning specific measures for the
Azores and Madeira relating to certain agricultural prod-
ucts (
1), and in particular Article 10 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1676/85
of 11 June 1985 on the value of the unit of account and
the conversion rates to be applied for the purposes of the
common agricultural policy (2), as last amended by Regula-
tion (EEC) No 2205/90 (3), and in particular Article 12
thereof,
Whereas, in the application of Articles 2 and 3 of Regula-
tion (EEC) No 1600/92, it is necessary to determine the
quantities of certain processed fruit and vegetable products
in the forecast supply balance, falling within CN code 2008
and qualifying for exemption from duty on direct imports
from third countries or for aid for consignments from the
rest of the Community;
Whereas the amount of the abovementioned aid for the
supply of processed fruit products to Madeira should be
fixed; whereas that aid must be fixed taking account, in
particular, of the cost of supply from the world market, the
conditions resulting from that region’s geographical situ-
ation and current prices for exports to the latter;
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1696/92 (4), as
amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2132/92 (5), lays down
common detailed rules for implementation of the specific
arrangements for the supply of certain agricultural prod-
ucts to Madeira; whereas it is appropriate to lay down
additional detailed rules in line with current commercial
practice in the processed fruit and vegetable products sec-
tor, in particular regarding the duration of the validity of
licences and certificates and the amount of the securities
ensuring operators’ compliance with their obligations;

for the lodging of licence and certificate applications and
for a period of reflection for their issue;

the supply arrangements apply from 1 July 1992; whereas
