Proposal for a Council Regulation laying down special measures for certain varieties of 
raw tobacco in respect of the 1984, 1985 and 1986 crops 
(84/C 62/35) 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN 
COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the Euro­
pean Economic Community, 
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) 
No 727/70 of 21 April 1970 on the common organ­
ization of the market in raw tobacco ('), as last 
amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1461/82 (2), and 
in particular the second subparagraph of 
Article 13 (8) thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commis­
sion, 
Whereas it appears from the report of the Commis­
sion provided for in Article 13 (1) of Regulation 
(EEC) No 727/70 that the quantities of tobacco of 
the Tsebelia and Mavra varieties from the 1982 crop 
bought in by the intervention agencies are greater 
than the quantities fixed by Regulation (EEC) 
No 1469/70 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1536/81 (4), as the threshold for activat­
ing the procedures provided for in Article 13 of 
Regulation (EEC) No 727/70; 
Whereas the quantities fixed have been exceeded 
only in the case of the 1982 crop, and whereas the 
figures for the 1983 crop, more particularly those 
relating to areas under tobacco, do not indicate that 
the quantities delivered into intervention from the 
1983 crop will be less than those delivered from the 
1982 crop; 
Whereas, as regards these varieties, the quantities of 
the 1982 crop bought in by the intervention agencies 
are less than the percentage fixed by Regulation 
(EEC) No 1469/70; whereas; however, the measures 
provided for in Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) 
No 727/70 may be activated when only the said 
quantities are found to have been or are in danger of 
being exceeded, in order to facilitate control over 
the market before excessively large intervention 
stocks are formed; 
Whereas, in these circumstances, appropriate mea­
sures should be taken immediately to prevent the 
situation experienced in 1982 from recurring as 
regards the 1984 crop;

Whereas the situation warrants recourse to the spe­
cific measures provided for in Article 13(1) of 
Regulation (EEC) No 727/70, namely reducing the 
level of the intervention price; whereas, in order to 
restore market balance, the said measures will have 
to be applied to several successive crops,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commis­
sion, 
Having regard to the opinion of the European Par­
liament, 
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and 
Social Committee, 
Whereas, when fixing the common agricultural 
prices, account should be taken of the objectives of 
the common agricultural policy and of the contri­
bution which the Community wishes to make to the 
harmonious development of world trade; whereas 
the objectives of the common agricultural policy are 
in particular to secure a fair standard of living for

plies are available and that they reach the con­
sumers at reasonable prices; 
Whereas the target price for milk should bear a bal­
anced relationship to the prices for other agricul­
tural 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 neces­
sary, in fixing that price, to take account of the 
Community's efforts to establish a long-term bal­
ance between supply and demand on the milk mar­
ket, 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 oppor­
tunities for disposal of butter and skimmed-milk 
powder on the Community and world markets; 
Whereas the intervention prices for Grana Padano 
and Parmigiano Reggiano cheeses must be fixed in
