EXPLANATORY JM40RAHDUM
I.General remarks : , .. .
Thocommon organization ofthemarket in.poultrymeat ,established in
Council Regulation No123/67/&EC,involves mainly asystem oflevies and .
sluice-gate prices calculated principally onthebasis ofprices offeed
grain .
Inorder toestablish the sjaount ofthelevy and thelevel ofthe
sluice-gate price foreach product ,thequantities offe&d grain required
fortheproduction of1kgoftheproduct andtheother costs ofproduction
andmarketing should bespecified .
Council Regulation No146/67/EEClaid down therules tobeobserved in
making these calculations andfixed theprocessing coefficients (quantity
ofgrain )andthestandard amounts (other costs )forwhole slaughtered
poultry andchicks .
Developments inproduction andmarketing techniques andchanges in
production ,processing' andmarket costs ,especially inrecent months ,
cannot beignored .
ItistheCommission 'sview that thetime hascome topresent tothe
Council proposals foraltering thefactors forcalculating thelevy and
thesluice-gate price .These proposals arenotofakind likely toprovo^ce
disturbance intrade .Their adoption could demonstrate thedesire of
Member States tobring theCommunity rules into line with thetechnical
andcommercial realities ofagricultural production .,
