COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 996/95 of 3 May 1995 laying down special rules for fixing agricultural conversion rates

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92 of 28 December 1992 on the unit of account and the conversion rates to be applied for the purposes of the common agricultural policy (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 150/95 (2), and in particular Articles 1 (b), 3 (2) and 12 thereof,

Whereas the monetary situation required the introduction of confirmation periods pursuant to Article 4 (1) and (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92 from 24 February 1995 for the Belgian franc and the Luxembourg franc and from 16 March 1995 for the German mark, the Netherlands guilder and the Austrian schilling; whereas these periods last 10 days pursuant to the final subparagraph of Article 2 (3) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1068/93 of 30 April 1993, on detailed rules for determining and applying the agricultural conversion rates (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 157/95 (4);

Whereas the confirmation period that began on 26 March 1995 ends on 24 April 1995 in accordance with Article 1 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 758/95 of 3 April 1995 laying down special rules for fixing agricultural conversion rates (5);

Whereas the turbulent monetary situation prevents the establishment in the near future of relatively stable representative market rates and hence agricultural conversion rates, in particular for the Belgian franc and the Luxembourg franc; whereas, under these circumstances, one of the confirmation periods should be extended in accordance with Article 1 (b) of Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92;

Whereas, in order to prevent the existence of large bilateral gaps over long periods, the average negative monetary gaps should be eliminated every 10 days;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Notwithstanding the final subparagraph of Article 2 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 1068/93, the confirmation period commencing on 25 April 1995 shall end on 24 May 1995.

Article 2

Negative monetary gaps calculated on the basis of the average rates of the ecu during the previous 10 days shall be reduced to zero by the Commission on 5, 15 and 25 May 1995.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1251/95 of 29 May 1995 amending Regulation (EC) No 3283/94 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Community

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 113 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas by Regulation (EC) No 3283/94 (1), the Council adopted rules on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Community;

Whereas Articles 5 (9), 6 (9) and 7 (1) of Regulation (EC) No 3283/94 lay down time limits for the initiation of investigations pursuant to a complaint lodged under Article 5 (9) and for certain steps in the investigation; whereas however Article 24 of that Regulation provides that those time limits shall only apply after a date which the Council shall specify in a Decision once the necessary budgetary resources have been made available;

Whereas the necessary budgetary resources have now been made available to allow the Commission to adhere to those time limits; whereas it appears appropriate that the time limits should apply to proceedings initiated pursuant to complaints lodged on or after 1 September 1995;

Whereas for ease of reference it is desirable that this date should be inserted in Regulation (EC) No 3283/94; whereas therefore an amendment should be made to that Regulation rather than a Decision be adopted pursuant to Article 24 thereof,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Sole Article

The third sentence of Article 24 of Regulation (EC) No 3283/94 shall be replaced by the following:

'The time limits prescribed by Articles 5 (9), 6 (9) and 7 (1) shall apply in respect of complaints lodged pursuant to Article 5 (9) on or after 1 September 1995 and investigations initiated pursuant to such complaints.`

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 of 18 May 1972 on the common organization of the market in fruit and vegetables (1), and in particular Article 16 (1) thereof,

Whereas, in order to ensure the continuity of prices for cauliflowers and the possibility of intervention as regards apricots, peaches and nectarines from 1 June 1995 and tomatoes from 11 June 1995, the basic and buying-in prices for the products must be fixed for the period 1 to 30 June 1995 pending a decision regarding the 1995/96 marketing year,
