COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3728/86

of 5 December 1986

determining for the Member States the estimated loss of income and the estimated level of the premium payable per ewe and per female goat for the 1986 marketing year

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1837/80 of 27 June 1980 on the common organization of the market in sheepmeat and goatmeat (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 882/86 (2), and in particular Article 5 (4) thereof,

Whereas under Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3520/86 of 18 November 1986 determining for the Member States the estimated loss of income and the estimated level of the premium payable per ewe and per female goat for the 1986 marketing year (3) the advance that the Member States may pay to producers in certain less-favoured areas on the amount of the estimated foreseeable premium to them was fixed at 50 % of the said premium by way of derogation from the provisions of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3007/84 of 26 October 1984 laying down detailed rules for the application of the premium for producers of sheepmeat (4), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1514/86 (5); whereas, in the light of the worsening of the situation on the Community market and in particular the collapse of market prices, this advance should be increased to 75 % of the estimated premium;

Whereas the abovementioned Regulation (EEC) No 3520/86 laid down that the same advances should be paid in region 1 as those laid down for region 2; whereas slightly different amounts should be laid down for Greece and Italy so as to facilitate their conversion into national currency;

Whereas, for the purposes of clarity, the abovementioned amendments should be made by completely replacing the text of Regulation (EEC) No 3520/86, which should accordingly be repealed; whereas, however, it should be laid down that, in those Member States which have already paid the advance referred to in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2545/86 (6) and/or the advance referred to in Regulation (EEC) No 3520/86, the amount payable to producers that have received this advance should be equal to the difference between the advance payable under this Regulation and the amount actually received;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
