COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 332/95 of 17 February 1995 determining, by way of a temporary measure, the prices and amounts fixed in ecus applicable in the sugar sector for the period 1 February to 30 June 1995 which are multiplied by the correcting factor provided for in Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92 of 28 December 1992 on the unit of account and the conversion rates to be applied for the purposes of the common agricultural policy (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 150/95 (2), and in particular Articles 12 and 13 (1) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 of 30 June 1981 on the common organization of the markets in the sugar sector (3), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 283/95 (4),

Whereas Article 13 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92 provides that prices and amounts in ecus, the equivalent value of which in national currency is multiplied on 31 January 1995 by the correcting factor 1,207509 which it lays down, are to be multiplied by that factor such as to maintain their levels in national currency following the abolition of the correcting factor for the fixed currencies;

Whereas the rationality of the usual rules of calculation must be complied with as far as possible to maintain the exact stability of prices and amounts in the sugar sector as a result of the self-financing arrangements in that sector; whereas, as a result, for that same reason and in order to enable the prices and amounts in question to be applied from 1 February 1995 uniformly for all the Community, they should be determined by way of a temporary measure, in a clear way after application of the said correcting factor, and, as a consequence, be published for the remaining period of the 1994/95 marketing year;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The prices and certain amounts fixed in ecus for the 1994/95 marketing year in the sugar sector shall be, after application of the correcting factor referred to in Article 13 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92, as set out in the Annex for the period 1 February to 30 June 1995.

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 from 1 February 1995.

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

Done at Brussels, 17 February 1995.
