THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 3117/85 of 4 November 1985 laying down general rules on the granting of compensatory indemnities in respect of sardines ( 1 ), as amended by Regulation ( EEC ) No 3940/87 ( 2 ), and in particular Article 4 thereof,

Whereas Article 2 ( 1 ) of Regulation ( EEC ) No 3117/85 provides for the granting of a compensatory indemnity for producers of Atlantic sardines of the species Sardina pilchardus in the Community as constituted at 31 December 1985 who sell their products at a price below a guaranteed minimum price;

Whereas Article 2 ( 3 ) of Regulation ( EEC ) No 3117/85 lays down that the guaranteed minimum price is to be the same as the withdrawal price in force in the year preceding accession, corrected in accordance with any adjustment applicable to the guide price for the following fishing year;

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

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) N° 1035/72 of 18 May 1972 on the common organization of the market in fruit and vegetables(1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) N° 1193/90(2), and in particular Article 2 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas Article 2 (2) of Regulation (EEC) N° 1035/72 provides for the establishment of quality standards for a number of products to be delivered fresh to the consumer; whereas these products are listed in Annex I to the said Regulation; whereas these standards also apply to imports and exports;

Whereas melons are already the subjet of extensive trade both within the Community and with third countries;

whereas it is therefore desirable that common quality standards be laid down for this product; whereas application of these standards should have the effect of keeping products of unsatisfactory quality off the market, guiding production to meet consumers' requirements and facilitating trade under fair competitive conditions, so helping to improve the profitability of production; whereas, to this effect, melons should be added to the list in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) N° 1035/72,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

In Annex I to Regulation (EEC) N° 1035/72 the word 'melons` is added under the heading 'Fruit`.

Article 2

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