COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1044/97 of 10 June 1997 amending Regulation (EC) No 2498/96 establishing Community tariff quotas for 1997 for sheep, goats, sheepmeat and goatmeat falling within CN codes 0104 10 30, 0104 10 80, 0104 20 90 and 0204 and derogating from Regulation (EC) No 1439/95 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89 as regards the import and export of products in the sheepmeat and goatmeat sector

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3383/94 of 19 December 1994 on certain procedures for applying the Europe Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Bulgaria, of the other part (1), and in particular Article 1 thereof,

Whereas Annex XIII a to the Europe Agreement with Bulgaria (2) lays down the quantities of sheep, goats, sheepmeat and goatmeat that may be imported under the preferential scheme within tariff quotas; whereas those quotas were opened for 1997 by Regulation (EC) No 2498/96 (3);

Whereas the Europe Agreement also provides for the possibility of Bulgaria converting limited quantities of live animal exports into quantities of meat; whereas Bulgaria has asked the Community to convert 1 000 tonnes of live animals expressed as carcase weight bone-in that may be exported into the Community in 1997 into 1 000 tonnes of meat; whereas this conversion concerns only a limited portion of the quantities of those products originating in Bulgaria that may enter the Community under Community tariff quotas; whereas, therefore, it should be accepted;

Whereas, as a result, it is necessary to adapt the quantities laid down for Bulgaria in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 2498/96;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sheepmeat and Goatmeat,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

In Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 2498/96, the quantity of live animals for Bulgaria is hereby replaced by '2 123` and the quantity of meat for Bulgaria is replaced by '2 890`.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh 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 1219/97 of 27 June 1997 amending Regulation (EC) No 806/97 fixing the maximum amounts of compensatory aid relating to appreciable revaluations of the Irish pound, the pound sterling and the Italian lira occurring prior to 31 March 1997

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 724/97 of 22 April 1997 determining measures and compensation relating to appreciable revaluations that effect farm incomes (1), and in particular Article 7 thereof,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 806/97 of 2 May 1997 fixing the maximum amounts of compensatory aid relating to appreciable revaluations of the Irish pound, the pound sterling and of the Italian lira occurring prior to 31 March 1997 (2), lays down the maximum amount of aid relating to the appreciable revaluation on 29 March 1997 of the Irish pound;

Whereas the first subparagraph of Article 4 (3) of Regulation (EC) No 724/97 provides that the maximum amount referred to in paragraph 2 of the same Article may be reduced or cancelled as a function of the effect on income of the development of agricultural conversion rates recorded during a certain observation period;

Whereas the conversion rate for the Irish pound increased between the last appreciable fall on 29 March 1997 and the end of the third month following that date; whereas, because of the level which the conversion rate reached, the amount of the first tranche of aid for Ireland should be reduced;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the relevant management committees,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The amount of ECU 65,16 million in the second indent of Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 806/97 is hereby replaced by ECU 57,50 million.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93 of 12 October 1993 establishing a control system applicable to the common fisheries policy (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 698/97 (2), and in particular Article 21 (3) thereof,

Whereas Council Regulation (EC) No 392/97 of 20 December 1996 allocating, for 1997, certain catch quotas between Member States for vessels fishing in the Norwegian exclusive economic zone and the fishing zone around Jan Mayen (3) provides for cod quotas for 1997;

Whereas, in order to ensure compliance with the provisions relating to the quantitative limitations on catches of stocks subject to quotas, it is necessary for the Commission to fix the date by which catches made by vessels flying the flag of a Member State are deemed to have exhausted the quota allocated;

Whereas, according to the information communicated to the Commission, catches of cod in the waters of ICES divisions I, II a, b (Norwegian waters north of 62° N) by vessels flying the flag of Ireland or registered in Ireland have reached the quota allocated for 1997; whereas Ireland has prohibited fishing for this stock as from 31 May 1997; whereas it is therefore necessary to abide by that date,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Catches of cod in the waters of ICES divisions I, II a, b (Norwegian waters north of 62° N) by vessels flying the flag of Ireland or registered in Ireland are deemed to have exhausted the quota allocated to Ireland for 1997.

Whereas, in order to facilitate administration of the supply balance, a certain margin of flexibility in the allocation of the quantities fixed in the supply balance should be permitted;
