THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1601/92 of 15 June 1992 concerning specific measures for the Canary Islands with regard to certain agricultural products (1), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1974/93 (2), and in particular

Articles 3 (4), 4 (4) and 5 (2) thereof,

Whereas Annex I to Commission Regulation (EC) No 2883/94 of 28 November 1994 establishing the forecast supply balance for the Canary Islands for agricultural products benefiting from the specific measures provided for in Articles 2 to 5 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1601/92 (3) fixes for the period 1 July 1994 to 30 June 1995 the quantities of products and live animals of the beef and veal sector that benefit from the supply measures either in the form of an exemption from import duties or through the grant of aid, as well as the number of pure-bred breeding bovines coming from the Community that benefit from the aid provided for in Article 4 of the aforementioned Regulation;

Whereas the new common detailed rules for the implementation of the measures in question were laid down in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2790/94 (4), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 2883/94, in particular as regards the issue and period of validity of certificates, aid payment and the inspection and monitoring of trade operations; whereas these provisions replace the detailed rules laid down in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1695/92 (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2596/93 (6); whereas the new detailed rules are applicable in the various market sectors from 1 December 1994;

Whereas the additional provisions adopted for the beef and veal sector that are not in keeping with the abovementioned new rules should therefore be deleted and Regulations (EEC) No 1912/92 (7) and (EEC) No 2254/92 (8), both as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2489/94 (9), should be amended, in particular with regard to the issue and period of validity of the certificates;

Whereas this Regulation is to enter into force on the same date as the new common detailed rules for the implementation of the measures concerned, laid down in Regulation (EC) No 2790/94, and the new supply balance;
