Whereas, in accordance with Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1146/86 (3), the issue of import licences for sweet potatoes falling within subheading 07.06 B of the Common Customs Tariff has been suspended since 19 April 1986;

Whereas, with a view to control and administrative management, the term of validity of licences issued in compliance with this Regulation should be limited,

COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 1426/86

of 14 May 1986

determining the operative event for private storage aid for flax and hemp fibres

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1308/70 of 29 June 1970 on the common organization of the market in flax and hemp (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85 (2), and in particular Article 5 (3) thereof,

Whereas under Article 5 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1308/70, aid is granted to holders of flax or hemp fibres who have concluded private storage contracts;

Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1676/85 of 11 June 1985 on the value of the unit of account and the conversion rates to be applied for the purposes of the common agricultural policy (3) specifies the rules governing the exchange rate between the ECU and the national currencies to be used for the purposes of the common agricultural policy, and the consequences arising from the fixing of agricultural conversion rates; whereas Article 4 of the said Regulation specifies that alterations of agricultural conversion rates are applicable to all amounts in respect of which the operative event occurs after the alterations have taken effect;

Whereas the operative event for entitlement to the aid in the case of private storage contracts for flax or hemp should therefore be determined;

Whereas, in accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 1676/85, 'operative event' is taken to mean, inter alia the conclusion of a contract; whereas the date of conclusion appears to be the most suitable in the case of the storage of flax or hemp fibre; whereas the date of the conclusion of the storage contract should therefore be chosen as the operative event for entitlement to private storage aid;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Flax and Hemp,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

For the purposes of Article 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 1676/85, the operative event for entitlement to private storage aid for flax or hemp fibre shall be regarded as having occurred on the day of the conclusion of the storage contract between the holder of the fibre and the intervention agency.

Article 2

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

Is shall apply to contracts concluded from 6 February 1986.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 1532/86

of 21 May 1986

re-establishing the levying of customs duties applicable to microwave ovens, falling within subheading 85.12 E ex II, originating in South Korea, to which the preferential tariff arrangements set out in Council Regulation (EEC) No 3599/85 apply

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3599/85 of 17 December 1985 applying generalized tariff preferences for 1986 in respect of certain industrial products originating in developing countries (1), and in particular Article 13 thereof,

Whereas, pursuant to Article 1 of that Regulation, duties on the products listed in Annex II originating in each of the countries or territories listed in Annex III shall be totally suspended and the products as such shall, as a general rule, be subject to statistical surveillance every three months on the reference base referred to in Article 12;

Whereas, as provided for in Article 12, where the increase of preferential imports of these products, originating in one or more beneficiary countries, causes, or threatens to cause, economic difficulties in the Community or in a region of the Community, the levying of customs duties may be re-established, once the Commission has had an appropriate exchange of information with the Member States; whereas for this purpose the reference base to be considered shall be as a general rule, 165 % of the highest maximum amount valid for 1980;

Whereas, in the case of microwave ovens, falling within subheading 85.12 E ex II, the individual ceiling was fixed at 1 328 000 ECU; whereas on 16 May 1986, imports of these products into the Community, originating in South Korea, reached the ceiling in question after being charged thereagainst; whereas the exchange of information organized by the Commission has demonstrated that continuance of the preference threatens to cause economic difficulties in a region of the Community;

Whereas it is appropriate to re-establish the levying of customs duties in respect of the products in question against South Korea,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

As from 25 May 1986, the levying of customs duties, suspended pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3599/85, shall be re-established on imports into the Community of the following products in South Korea:

1.2 // // // CCT heading No // Description // // // 85.12 E ex II (NIMEXE code 85.12-67) // Microwave ovens // //

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.
