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) and 4 (4) thereof,

Whereas Annex II to Commission Regulation (EC) No 2883/94 of 28 November 1994 establishing a forecast balance for the supply to the Canary Islands of agricultural products covered by the specific measures provided for in Articles 2, 3, 4 and 5 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1601/92 (3) fixes for the period 1 July 1994 to 30 June 1995 the quantities of products from the pigmeat sector which may benefit from the supply arrangements, in the form of either an exemption from the import levy or the granting of aid, and the quantities of pure-bred breeding animals originating in the Community eligible for the aid provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 1601/92 with a view to developing the potential for production in the archipelago;

Whereas the abovementioned aid should be fixed taking account, in particular, of the costs of supply from the world market, the conditions arising from the geographical situation of the Canary Islands and current prices for exports of the animals or products in question to third countries;

Whereas the common detailed rules for implementation of the arrangements for the supply of certain agricultural products to the Canary Islands are laid down by Commission Regulation (EC) No 2790/94 (4), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 2883/94; whereas that Regulation defines new detailed rules for the management of the arrangements, in particular, for the issue and period of validity of licences and certificates, the payment of aid and the monitoring and control of commercial operations carried out under the specific arrangements; whereas those provisions replace the detailed rules laid down by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1695/92 (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2596/93 (6), and apply in the various market sectors from 1 December 1994;

Whereas, therefore, Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1724/92 of 30 June 1992 laying down detailed implementing rules for the specific measures for supplying the Canary Islands with products from the pigmeat sector (7), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2387/94 (8), should be repealed from the same date;
