amending Regulations (EEC) No 3105/88 and (EEC) No 2721/88 for the purpose of setting the time limits for certain distillation operations in the wine sector

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 of 16 March 1987 on the common organisation of the market in wine(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1677/1999(2), and in particular Articles 35(8), 36(6) and 38(5) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine(3), and in particular Article 80 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Certain wine distillation operations are laid down as measures to manage the market in wine. Time limits are laid down for those operations so as to guarantee their proper execution.

(2) In December 1999 France suffered from exceptionally bad weather. Storms and floods caused severe material damage to vine-growers' and distillers' installations. As a result France's economic operators are in no position to fulfil their distillation obligations within the time limits laid down, and for that reason those time limits should be extended for the territory of the French Republic.

(3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The following sentence is added to Article 12(1) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3105/88(4) laying down detailed rules for the application of compulsory distillation as provided for in Articles 35 and 36 of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87:"As regards the distillation operations provided for in Articles 35 and 36 of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87, the time limit for the distillation of the products in question for the 1999/2000 wine year shall be extended to 20 September, for France only."

Article 2

The following sentence is added to Article 7(1) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2721/88(5) laying down detailed rules for voluntary distillation as provided for in Articles 38, 41 and 42 of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87:"As regards the distillation operation provided for in Article 38 of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87, the time limit for the distillation of the products in question for the 1999/2000 wine year shall be extended to 20 September, for France only."

Commission Regulation (EC) No 1635/2000

of 25 July 2000

fixing the coefficients applicable to cereals exported in the form of Spanish whisky for the period 2000/2001

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2825/93 of 15 October 1993 laying down certain detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 as regards the fixing and granting of adjusted refunds in respect of cereals exported in the form of certain spirit drinks(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1633/2000(2), and in particular Article 5 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Article 4(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2825/93 provides that the quantities of cereals eligible for the refund are to be the quantities placed under control and distilled, weighted by a coefficient to be fixed annually for each Member State concerned. That coefficient expresses the ratio between the total quantities exported and the total quantities marketed of the spirituous beverage concerned on the basis of the trend noted in those quantities during the number of years corresponding to the average ageing period of the spirituous beverage in question. In view of the information provided by Spain on the period 1 January to 31 December 1999, the average ageing period in 1999 was four years for Spanish whisky. The coefficients for the period 1 July 2000 to 30 September 2001 should be fixed.

(2) Article 10 of Protocol 3 to the Agreement on the European Economic Area(3) precludes the grant of refunds for exports to Liechtenstein, Iceland and Norway. Therefore, pursuant to Article 7(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2825/93, account should be taken of this in the calculation of the coefficient for 2000/2001.

(3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

For the period 1 July 2000 to 30 September 2001, the coefficients provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 2825/93 applying to cereals used in Spain for manufacturing Spanish whisky shall be as set out in the Annex.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

It shall apply with effect from 1 July 2000.

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