COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1579/85

of 10 June 1985

increasing the Community tariff quota opened by Regulation (EEC) No 3195/84 for yarn spun entirely from waste silk other than noil, not put up for retail sale, falling within subheading 50.05 A of the Common Customs Tariff

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 28 thereof,

Having regard to the draft Regulation submitted by the Commission,

Whereas the Council, by Regulation (EEC) No 3195/84 (1), opened and allocated among the Member States, for the period 1 January to 31 December 1985 a duty-free Community tariff quota for yarn spun entirely from waste silk other than noil, not put up for retail sale, falling within subheading 50.05 A of the Common Customs Tariff, the amount of which was fixed at 250 tonnes;

Whereas, on the basis of the most recent data on this product for the period in question, it is estimated that the additional imports from third countries required by the Community currently amount to 170 tonnes; whereas the size of the tariff quota should as a result be increased; whereas, in order to safeguard the Community character of the tariff quota in question, part of the volume of the proposed increase should be allocated to the Community reserve, the balance being allocated among certain Member States on a pro rata basis according to their foreseeable requirements for imports originating in third countries,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The volume of the Community tariff quota opened by Regulation (EEC) No 3195/84 for yarn spun entirely from waste silk other than noil, not put up for retail sale, falling within subheading 50.05 A of the Common Customs Tariff, is hereby increased from 250 to 420 tonnes.

Article 2

1. A first instalment of the additional volume referred to in Article 1, amounting to 150 tonnes, shall be allocated as follows among the following Member States:

Germany 20 tonnes,

Italy 130 tonnes.

2. The second instalment, amounting to 20 tonnes, shall constitute the reserve.

The reserve provided for in Article 2 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3195/84 shall be thus increased from 36 to 56 tonnes.

Article 3

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following 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.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

Whereas the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Regulation (EEC) No 2793/77 is hereby amended as follows:

1. In Article 1 (2), '10,60 ECU per 100 kilograms' is replaced by '11 ECU per 100 kilograms' and '106 ECU per 100 kilograms' is replaced by '110 ECU per 100 kilograms'.

fixing, in respect of the Skagerrak and the Kattegat, the period falling between 1 July and 29 September 1985 when fishing for sprat by vessels with an overall length of less than 80 feet (24,38 m) is prohibited

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

Whereas Article 7 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1/85 requires the four-week period, during which fishing for sprat with trawls of mesh size less than 32 mm in the Skagerrak and the Kattegat is prohibited for vessels with an overall length of less than 80 feet (24,38 m), to be fixed in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 14 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 170/83 (3);

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Mangement Committee for Fishery Resources;

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Fishing for sprat with trawls of mesh size less than 32 mm by vessels with an overall length of less than 80 feet (24,38 m) shall be prohibited in the Skagerrak and the Kattegat during the periods 1 July to 14 July 1985 and 16 September to 29 September 1985.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1713/85

of 20 June 1985

amending Regulation (EEC) No 2969/83 establishing a special emergency measure to assist stock farming in Italy

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty etablishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),

Whereas Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 2969/83 (3) provides for the granting of aid for the conversion into medium-term loans of short-term loans taken up before 30 November 1983 to cover farmers' requirements for the operation of the holdings referred to in Article 1 of that Regulation;

Whereas, because of the limited funds at the disposal of the agriculture credit institutions, it has been possible to accept only about one-half of the applications made; whereas, as a result, it has been possible for only part of the appropriations provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 2969/83 to be used;

Whereas the very difficult position of the farmers requires that the conversion ability should continue to be available to those farmers who have not yet benefited from the Community measure,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Regulation (EEC) No 2969/83 is hereby amended as follows:

1. In Article 2, '30 November 1983' is replaced by '1 May 1985' and the following subparagraph is added:

'However, a farmer may benefit from the aid only once.'

2. The following phrase is added to Article 3 (1):

'or an updating of such programme submitted by the Italian Government before 1 June 1985 and approved by the Commission.'

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following 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.
