COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1363/98 of 26 June 1998 fixing the target price for milk and the intervention prices for butter and skimmed-milk powder for the 1998/1999 milk marketing year

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (1), and in particular Articles 3(4) and 5 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (2),

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (3),

Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (4),

Whereas, when fixing the common agricultural prices each year, account should be taken of the objectives of the common agricultural policy; whereas the objectives of the common agricultural policy are in particular to secure a fair standard of living for the agricultural community and to ensure that supplies are available and that they reach the consumers at reasonable prices;

Whereas the target price for milk should bear a balanced relationship to the prices for other agricultural products and in particular to the prices for beef and veal, and be consistent with the desired general pattern of cattle farming; whereas it is also necessary, in fixing that price, to take account of the Community's efforts to establish a long-term balance between supply and demand on the milk market, allowing for external trade in milk and milk products;

Whereas the intervention prices for butter and for skimmed-milk powder are intended to contribute to the achievement of the target price for milk; whereas it is necessary to determine price levels in the light of the overall supply-and-demand situation on the Community market in milk and the opportunities for disposal of butter and skimmed-milk powder on the Community and world markets,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

For the 1998/1999 milk marketing year the target price for milk and the intervention prices for milk products shall be as follows:

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1286/98 of 22 June 1998 reintroducing normal customs duties on certain flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel, originating in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, for which a tariff ceiling was opened by Regulation (EC) No 273/98

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 77/98 of 9 January 1998 on certain procedures for applying the Cooperation Agreement between the European Community and the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (1), and in particular Article 3(1) thereof,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 273/98 of 2 February 1998 opening and providing for the administration of Community tariff quotas and tariff ceilings and establishing a Community surveillance of reference quantities for certain products originating in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (2), provides in its Article 2 an exemption from customs duties in the framework of tariff ceilings for the products listed in its Annex B;

Whereas Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 77/98 provides that the Commission may, as soon as a tariff ceiling is reached, adopt a Regulation reintroducing, until the end of the calendar year, the customs duties applicable to third countries in respect of imports of the products concerned; whereas the Community surveillance provided by Article 2(3) of Regulation (EC) No 273/98 has shown that preferential imports of products in the framework of the tariff ceiling with order No 25.0230 have exceeded this ceiling;

Whereas this situation is liable to cause serious damage to the Community sector concerned and requires the reintroduction of customs duties;

Whereas the levying of customs duties for these products should therefore be re-established,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

For products listed in the Annex and originating in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, for which a tariff ceiling was opened by Regulation (EC) No 273/98, the levying of normal customs duties shall be reintroduced from 26 June until 31 December 1998.

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.
