Whereas the guide prices, as defined in Annex III to Regulation (EEC) No 822/87, must be fixed for each type of table wine representative of Community production,

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1751/96 of 9 September 1996 amending Regulation (EC) No 1318/96 derogating from Regulation (EEC) No 2456/93 as regards public intervention

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in beef and veal (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1588/96 (2), and in particular Article 6 (7) thereof,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1318/96 of 8 July 1996 derogating from Regulation (EEC) No 2456/93 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 as regards public intervention (3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1743/96 (4), fixes, on a degressive basis, the maximum weight of carcases which may be bought in under invitations to tender opened in July, August and September 1996; whereas, in order to cushion the impact of that measure for operators, the Regulation also authorizes intervention buying of heavier carcases during July and August, by way of derogation, while limiting the buying-in price to the maximum authorized weight; whereas bullocks reach their slaughter weight more slowly and therefore later in the year than uncastrated animals; whereas, in order to avoid giving unequal treatment to these two categories of animal, the derogation from the buying-in price should be extended for bullocks to invitations to tender opened in September;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The following is added to the final subparagraph of Article 1 (3) of Regulation (EC) No 1318/96:

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1799/96 of 17 September 1996 on the issuing of export licences for fruit and vegetables without advance fixing of the refund

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 of 18 May 1972 on the common organization of the market in fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1363/95 (2), and in particular Article 26 (11) thereof,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1121/96 (3), fixes the indicative quantities laid down for the issue of export licences without advance fixing of the refund other than those applied for in the context of food aid;

Whereas Article 7 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1488/95 of 28 June 1995, on implementing rules for export refunds on fruit and vegetables (4), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2702/95 (5), provides that where there is an overrun of the indicative quantities, the excess quantities are to be deducted;

Whereas, in the light of information now available to the Commission, the indicative quantities laid down for the current period for table grapes and apples have already been exceeded; whereas these overruns will probably result in a reduction of the indicative quantity for the following period; whereas that reduction would be prejudicial to exports followed by applications for licences without advance fixing of the refund during that following period;

Whereas, in order to avoid that situation, the applications for licences without advance fixing of the refund for table grapes and apples exported after 19 September 1996 should be rejected up to the end of the current period;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

For table grapes and apples, the applications for export licences without advance fixing of the refund referred to in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1488/95, for which the export declaration for the products was accepted after 19 September 1996 and before 1 October 1996, are hereby rejected.

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92 of 20 December 1992 establishing a Community system for fisheries and aquaculture (1), and in particular Article 8 (4) thereof,

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1839/96 of 24 September 1996 fixing the coefficients applicable to cereals exported in the form of Spanish whisky for the period 1996/97

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 amended by Regulation (EC) No 3098/94 (2) and in particular Article 5 thereof,

Whereas 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; whereas 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; whereas, in view of the information provided by Spain on the period 1 January to 31 December 1995, the average ageing period in 1995 was four years for Spanish whisky; whereas the coefficients for the period 1 July 1996 to 30 June 1997 should be fixed;

Whereas 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; whereas, 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 1996/97;

Whereas 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
