amending Regulation (EC) No 2305/95 establishing detailed rules for application in the pigmeat sector of the arrangements provided for in the free trade Agreement between the Community, of the one part, and Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, of the other part

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1349/2000 of 19 June 2000 establishing certain concessions in the form of Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural products and providing for an adjustment, as an autonomous and transitional mesure, of certain agricultural concessions provided for in the Europe agreement with Estonia(1), and in particular Article 1(3) thereof,

It should be amended in line with the provisions on pigmeat products adopted by Regulation (EC) No 1349/2000.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3093/95 of 22 December 1995 laying down the rates of duty to be applied by the Community resulting from negotiations under GATT Article XXIV.6 consequent upon the accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden to the European Union(1), and in particular Article 5 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 411/96(2), pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement concerning the conclusion of negotiations between the Community and Australia under GATT Article XXIV.6, laid down the conditions governing the issue of import licences for 21000 tonnes of oats falling within CN code 1004 00 00, having a minimum specific weight of 55 kg/hl, a maximum moisture content of 12 % and a maximum content of grains of cereals other than oats of 2 % eligible for an import duty of EUR 89 per tonne.
