(86/563/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 66/401/EEC of 14 June 1966 on the marketing of fodder plant seed (1), as last amended by Directive 86/155/EEC (2), and in particular Article 9 (1) thereof,

Whereas it was understood at the time that the use of one of the systems concerned, which was then specified exclusively for cereal seed, should show a tendency to decrease in favour of new systems and should be reconsidered after five years;

Whereas on 6 May 1986 the Danish Government forwarded an addendum to the programme approved by Commission Decision 84/146/EEC (3) relating to the manufacture of processed fruit and vegetable products;

Whereas the purpose of this addendum is to permit the further pursuit of the objectives defined in the original programme, including:

- to increase processing capacity for the outdoor crop of vegetables,

- to increase storage and processing capacity for semi-manufactured products,

- to aid marketing facilities and the restructuring of the sector,

in order to adapt supply to market requirements and thus enhance the market value of the products and improve producers' incomes;

Whereas it therefore constitutes a programme within the meaning of Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77;

Whereas the addendum contains sufficient information, as required by Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77, other than for non-Annex II products on which no decision can be taken at this stage, to show that the objectives of Article 1 of the Regulation can be achieved in respect of the processed fruit and vegetable sector in Denmark; whereas the estimated time required for execution of the addendum does not exceed the limits laid down in Article 3 (1) (g) of the Regulation;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Commitee on Agricultural Structure,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Whereas any derogation from the Common Customs Tariff, whether autonomous or conventional, falls within the sole competence of the Community;

Whereas the entry into force of an additional Protocol to the Agreement enabling the European Economic Community to become a Contracting Party to that Agreement allows the Community to exercise its competence in this matter; whereas the derogations provided for in the Agreement are already granted by Community rules of relief from customs duty;

Whereas the Community ought therefore to become a Contracting Party to the Agreement,

HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:

Article 1

The European Agreement on the Exchange of Therapeutic Substances of Human Origin is hereby accepted on behalf of the European Economic Community.

The text of the Agreement is attached to this Decision.
