II.Theproposal foraCouncil regulation amending Regulation (EEC)Bo43l/68
isofastrictly technical nature .This proposal follows therecent
finding that theformula adopted forcalculating theyield ofraw
cane sugar does notenable theactual yield ofthesugar inquestion
to "becalculated .Since this amendment maynotbeintroduced during
themarketing year ,theRegulation istoapply from 1July 1973 *
These twoproposals have nofinancial consequences fortheCommunity budget :
-thefirst ,because itisameasure ofatheoretical nature ,constituting

THECOUNCIL OPTHEEUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard totheTreaty establishing the .European Economic Community ,
andinparticular Article 43thereof !
Having regard totheproposal from theCommission !
Having regard totheOpinion oftheEuropean Parliament !
Whereas Council Regulation NoIOO9/67/CEEof18December 1967 onthecommon
organization ofthemarket insugar (l),aslast amended byRegulation (EEC)
No6O7/72(2),provides inArticle 9(3)that theintervention system for
white sugar applies also ,foraperiod specified ,torawbeet sugar !
Whereas theextension ofthis system torawbeet sugar isjustified bythe
obligation onmanufacturers ofsuch sugar topay afixed minimum price for
beet ,that price being thesame astheprice paid bymanufacturers ofwhite
sugar !whereas ,however ,totake account ofthetendency forproduction ofsuch
sugar eventually tobediscontinued owing totheprogressive modernization of
thesugar industry ,thesystem aforesaid wasinitially made applicable only for
acertain period ,which wassubsequently extended !
Whereas atpresent asubstantial output ofrawbeet sugar continues tobeproduced
both intheoriginal andinthenewMember States 3whereas afurther extension of
theperiod ofapplicability oftheintervention system torawbeet sugar isthere­
fore necessary !
