THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation No 129 on the value of the unit of account and the exchange rates to be applied for the purposes of the common agricultural policy (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2543/73 (2), and in particular Article 3 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (3),

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (4),

Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (5),

Having regard to the opinion of the Monetary Committee,

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 855/84 (6) introduced, with effect from 1 January 1985, new rules for the calculation of the monetary compensatory amounts applicable in the pigmeat sector; whereas the rules applicable until that date were not included in the new text; whereas this is a palpable omission which must be corrected;

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1223/83 (7), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 855/84, set the representative rates for the German mark and the Dutch guilder applicable for the milk sector, the milk products sector and the cereals sector for the 1983/84 marketing year; whereas the new representative rates for these currencies, set in Regulation (EEC) No 855/84, do not enter into force until 1 January 1985; whereas it is necessary therefore to extend the period of validity of the representative rates applicable for the 1983/84 marketing year up to 31 December 1984,
