of 1 December 1983

amending Regulation (EEC) No 3433/81 in respect of the allocation of imports of preserved cultivated mushrooms originating in non-member countries

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 516/77 of 14 March 1977 on the common organization of the market in products processed from fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1088/83 (2),

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1796/81 of 30 June 1981 on measures applicable to imports of preserved cultivated mushrooms (3), and in particular Article 6 thereof,

Whereas Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 1796/81 provides that the quantity of imports not subject to the levying of an additional amount is to be allocated among the supplier countries with account being taken of traditional trade flows and any new suppliers;

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3433/81 (4), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3043/83 (5), fixed the allocation of this quantity for 1982 and 1983; whereas provision should now be made for the allocation to apply in the period 1 January to 31 December 1984;

Whereas experience has shown that proper management of the market requires that provision be made for a possible revision of the allocation at the end of the first half of each year;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
