THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in pigmeat (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1475/86 (2), and in particular Article 4 (6) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3220/84 of 13 November 1984 determining the Community scale for grading pig carcases (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3530/86 (4), and in particular Article 5 (2) thereof,

Whereas Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 3220/84 lays down that Member States may be authorized to provide for a presentation of pig carcases different from the standard presentation defined in the same Article where commercial pratice or technical requirements warrant this;

Whereas in the Netherlands the technical requirements relating to the use of the grading method and, consequently, commercial practice, necessitate the removal of the kidneys, the flare fat and the diaphragm (including the thick skirt); whereas this should be taken into account in adjusting to the weight for standard presentation; whereas Commission Decision 87/131/EEC (5) should be amended accordingly;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Pigmeat,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The following Article 1a is hereby inserted in Decision 87/131/EEC:

'Article 1a

Notwithstanding the standard presentation referred to in Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 3220/84, the flare fat, the kidneys and the diaphragm (including the thick skirt) shall be removed from pig carcases before being weighed and graded. In order to establish quotations for pig carcases on a comparable basis, the recorded hot weight shall be increased by 2,22 %.'

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

COMMISSION DECISION

(Only the Portuguese text is authentic)

(88/10/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Whereas the programme aims to increase by about 75 % present Portuguese aquaculture production both of marine species and of species reared in fresh water, and to provide protected marine areas; whereas investments of approximately 20 million ECU are estimated to be necessary for the completion of the programme;

Whereas, having regard to the foreseeable trend in fishery resources, the market for fishery and aquaculture products, the measures adopted under the common fisheries policy and the guidelines for the latter, the programme meets the conditions laid down in Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 4028/86 and constitutes a framework for Community and national financial aid for the sector concerned;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee for the Fishing Industry,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The multiannual guidance programme for aquaculture and the provision of protected marine areas (1987 to 1991), as forwarded on 14 April 1987 by the Portuguese Government and as last supplemented on 8 October 1987, is hereby approved subject to the conditions laid down in this Decision.

2. Priority must be granted when the programme is implemented to stable production of juveniles in keeping with the planned fish-farming investments.

Article 3

This Decision is without prejudice to any Community financial aid to individual investment projects.
