THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 404/93 of 13 February 1993 on the common organisation of the market in bananas (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1637/98 (2),

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 2362/98 of 28 October 1998 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 404/93 regarding imports of bananas into the Community (3), and in particular Articles 18 and 29 thereof,

Whereas Article 29 of Regulation (EC) No 2362/98 lays down that if the quantities covered by applications for licences in respect of the first quarter of 1999 covering imports from one or more of the origins listed in Annex I exceed 26 % of the quantities set out in that Annex, the Commission is to fix a percentage reduction to be applied to all applications in respect of the origin(s) concerned;

Whereas in the case of the quantities covered by licence applications that are either less than or equal to the ceiling laid down in Article 29 of Regulation (EC) No 2362/98, licences are issued for the quantities applied for; whereas, however, for certain origins, the quantities applied for exceed that ceiling; whereas, therefore, a reduction percentage should be set to be applied to each licence application for the origin(s) involved;

Whereas the maximum quantity for which such licence applications may still be submitted should be set taking account of the available quantities resulting from the application of Article 29 of Regulation (EC) No 2362/98 and the applications accepted at the end of the application period;

Whereas this Regulation should apply immediately to permit licences to be issued as quickly as possible,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Import licences shall be issued under the arrangements for the importation of bananas, tariff quota arrangements and arrangements for traditional ACP bananas for the first quarter of 1999 for the quantity indicated in the licence application, multiplied by reduction coefficients of 0,5793, 0,6740 and 0,7080 for applications indicating the origins 'Colombia`, 'Costa Rica` and 'Ecuador` respectively.

Article 2

The quantities for which licence applications may still be lodged in respect of the first quarter of 1999 are laid down in the Annex hereto.

Article 3

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

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

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1587/96 (2), and in particular Articles 6(6) and 12(3) thereof,

Whereas, where the time limit laid down in Article 11 is exceeded by less than 60 days, the second subparagraph of Article 18(3) and the third subparagraph of Article 22(4) of Regulation (EC) No 2571/97 provide for a penalty of ECU 4 per tonne per day; whereas that amount has proved to be too small, given the present situation on the market, and should be increased to ECU 6 per tonne per day;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Regulation (EC) No 2571/97 is hereby amended as follows:

1. in Article 11, 'three months` is replaced by 'four months`;

2. in the second subparagraph of Article 18(3) and the third subparagraph of Article 22(4), 'ECU 4 per tonne per day` is replaced by 'ECU 6 per tonne per day`.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2828/98 of 22 December 1998 concerning the stopping of fishing for sprat by vessels flying the flag of Finland

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93 of 12 October 1993 establishing a control system applicable to the common fisheries policy (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2635/97 (2), and in particular Article 21(3) thereof,

Whereas Council Regulation (EC) No 45/98 of 19 December 1997 fixing, for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, the total allowable catches for 1998 and certain conditions under which they may be fished (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2386/98 (4), provides for sprat quotas for 1998;

Whereas, in order to ensure compliance with the provisions relating to the quantitative limitations on catches of stocks subject to quotas, it is necessary for the Commission to fix the date by which catches made by vessels flying the flag of a Member State are deemed to have exhausted the quota allocated;

Whereas, according to the information communicated to the Commission, catches of sprat in the waters of ICES divisions III b, c, d (EC zone) by vessels flying the flag of Finland or registered in Finland have reached the quota allocated for 1998; whereas Finland has prohibited fishing for this stock as from 13 November 1998; whereas it is therefore necessary to abide by that date,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Catches of sprat in the waters of ICES divisions III b, c, d (EC zone) by vessels flying the flag of Finland or registered in Finland are deemed to have exhausted the quota allocated to Finland for 1998.

Fishing for sprat in the waters of ICES divisions III b, c, d (EC zone) by vessels flying the flag of Finland or registered in Finland is prohibited, as well as the retention on board, the transhipment and the landing of such stock captured by the abovementioned vessels after the date of application of this Regulation.

Article 2

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

It shall apply with effect from 13 November 1998.

Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 2042/98 (3) obliges the operators to export the products subject of a storage contract after the end of the storage period; whereas this provision reduces considerably the flexibility of this support measure and, as a consequence, the interest of the operators in this operation; whereas it is, therefore, appropriate to delete this obligation;

Whereas it is necessary that this Regulation applies from the beginning of the period for submission of the requests for contracts, i.e. from 28 September 1998 in order to ensure equal treatment of all the operators taking part in the aid for private storage scheme;

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

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2472/97 (4), defines the characteristics of olive oil and olive-residue oil and the relevant methods of analysis;

Whereas subsequent verification has revealed the need to correct the text of Regulation (EC) No 2472/97; whereas, as a result, the text of Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91 should be adapted;
