PROPOSAL FOR A 
COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) 
opening for 1994, as an autonomous measure, a special import tariff 
quota for high-quality fresh, chilled or frozen beef and veal

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 
Estimated trade balance of beef/veal for processing 
and ycmn^ male bovines for fattening 
from 1 January to 31 December 1994 
Results of meetings on 22 October with Argentina, Uruguay and 
Australia and on 25 October with Hungary, Romania, Poland, 
New Zealand, Slovakia, Slovenia and the Czech Republic 
In accordance with undertakings made by the Community under the General 
Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, as well as under the cooperation agreement 
between the community and Slovenia and interim agreements on trade and 
accompanying measures, the Commission presents the Council every year with 
a projected trade balance in beef and young male bovines for fattening; in 
preparation for this the Commission holds consultations with the non-
Community countries with which bilateral agreements have been signed. 
These bilateral contacts have been preceded by general meetings in which 
the Commission has explained the following policy choices: 
a trade balance in young bovines at 198 000 head 
a zero trade balance in frozen beef 
compensation for the zero balance, set at 11 430 tonnes of high-
quality beef. 
I. BEEF FOR PROCESSING 
ARGENTINA 
The Argentinian authorities informed Commission staff about current 
meat production in their country. 
They also stated that, beetle of the strong demand for less fatty 
meat, the average weight ofc carcases is declining, leading to an 
almost 8% drop in production in 1993 over 1990 (which was a peak 
year). 
Since domestic consumption is likely to recover, exports are likely 
to be lower than in 1992. 
In addition, the Argentine delegation said that it was prepared in 
general terms to accept the trade balance proposed by the Commission 
on condition that there were no changes to the allocation of the 
11 430 tonnes of high-quality meat. 
URUGUAY 
The Uruguay authorities gave the Commission staff information about 
meat production in their country. 
In particular, they stated that the recovery of cattle numbers over 
the last three years could lead to around 3% more beef exports in 
1993. 
They also said that they agreed to the Commission's proposal of a 
quota of 11 430 tonnes of Hilton beef provided there were no changes 
in the subdivision of the quota. 
AUSTRALIA 
The Australian authorities noted their agreement to the Commission's 
proposal of a quota of 11 430 tonnes of Hilton beef as long as the 
present quota allocation was maintained. 
They also stated that they were ready to collaborate with the 
Commission with regard to the information requested on certificates 
of authenticity. The proviso was that this would not amount to a 
restraint of trade and that the integrity of the system was 
guaranteed. 
NEW ZEALAND 
The New Zealand authorities expressed their satisfaction on this matter as 
regards both the conversion of the quota for meat for processing into high-
quality meat and the timing of consultations. They also expressed the hope 
that the quota would not be opened in two instalments, as was done in 1992. 
They also stated their willingness to cooperate with the Commission on 
certificates of authenticity. 
HUNGARY 
The Hungarian authorities asked for Hungary to be recognized as a producer 
of high-quality meat. 
If this were granted, Hungary could in future produce between 5 000 and 
10 000 tonnes of high quality meat of which it could export to the 
Community about 5 800 tonnes. 
ROMANIA 
Romania does not export high-quality meat at present. However, the Romanian 
authorities stated that they will in the future ask the Community to 
recognize Romania as a producer of high-quality meat. 
II. YOUNG BOVINES FOR FATTENING 
HUNGARY 
The Hungarian authorities reported that estimates of the production of live 
animals and consumption show a downwards trend. 
In 1992 livestock production on the hoof was 156 000 (live animals), 
consumption 86 000 tonnes and exports 70 000 tonnes. Estimates for 1993 are 
120 000 tonnes, 69 000 tonnes and 51 000 tonnes respectively. 
in 1992 exports to the community of young bovines for fattening were about 
15 300 tonnes, a figure which is expected to double in 1994 to 30 000 
tonnes because of the difficulties being experienced by farmers, mainly as 
a result of drought and the lack of resources for buying cattle fodder. 
H 
The Hungarian authorities also stated that Hungary was at a disadvantage as 
regards the export of live animals. 
The Balance includes an overall ceiling for Hungary, Poland and 
Czechoslovakia. At present other countries such as Romania and Slovenia 
have access to this ceiling under Association or Cooperation Agreements. 
Selling prices in those countries are sometimes 20% to 25% lower than in 
Hungary, all of which provides severe competition for Hungarian exports of 
live animals. Accordingly, Hungary has requested for 1994 an increase in 
the ceiling of 425 000 head and a sub-quota for itself of 60 000 head. 
ROMAN IA 
The Romanian authorities explained the agricultural reforms which had been 
implemented there. By now, 80% of the land has been privatized. Although 
they were unable to provide production estimates for 1994, they stated that 
the total herd size would increase. There is greater potential for 
expansion as farmers switch to livestock because of the lack of finance for 
the purchase of the machinery needed for certain crops. They also asked for 
an increase in their quota. 
POLAND 
The Polish authorities expressed concern at the increase in the number of 
countries (Romania and Slovenia) sharing in the Balance of 198 000 head of 
young bovines. 
Moreover, they have indicated that the quarterly divisions of the annual 
quota do not correspond to the production cycle and has created some 
problems with regard to exportation and supplementary costs. 
Finally, they have expressed their satisfaction on the subject of the 
minimum weight reduction from 220 kgs to 160 kgs for those live animals 
which benefit from the preferential levy of 25%. 
SLOVAK IA 
The Slovak representative stressed the importance of agricultural exports 
for the country's economy. 
He also stated exports in 1994 were estimated at about 10 000 head. 
SLOVENIA 
The Slovene authorities outlined the difficulties currently facing their 
country. 
They stressed that in 1992 the restructuring of exports and privatization 
had kept exports down to 9 000 tonnes. Current estimates for 1994 were 
about 18 900 tonnes. 
CZECH REPUBLIC 
The Czech authorities told the Commission that beef production was expected 
to fa I I in 1994. 
Meat production in 1993 was 380 000 tonnes, domestic consumption 310 000 
tonnes and exports 70 000 tonnes. 
. tyU* -
For 1994 production of heifers and veal calves was estimated at 25 000 
tonnes and exports would be affected by the price of meat for domestic 
consumpt ion.

A. 
Proposal for an estimate concerning young male bovine animals weighing 
300 kilograms or less and intended for fattening for the period 
1 January to 31 December 1994 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, 
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the 
common organization of the market in beef and veal1, as last amended by 
Regulation (EEC) No 125/932, and in particular Article 13 thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS ESTIMATE: 
Introduction 
Article 13(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 provides that each year, before 
1 December, the Council, acting by a qualified majority on a proposal from 
the Commission, must draw up an estimate of the young male bovine animals 
which may be imported under the system laid down in that Article. This 
estimate must take account both of the forecast supplies of young bovine 
animals intended for fattening within the Community and of Community 
livestock farmers' requirements. 
In order to establish the volume of imports under this estimate as from 
1981, in accordance with the Community's undertakings within the General 
Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), consultations are held between the 
Commission and representatives of some non-member countries before the 
annual draft estimate is put forward. 
1 OJ No L 148, 28.6.1968, p.24. 
2 OJ No L 18, 27.1.1993, p. 1. 
Before drawing up this estimate, the commission proposed consultations with 
representatives of the following non-member countries: Hungary, Poland, the 
Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic, Romania and the Republic of Slovenia. 
These consultations included an exchange of views on the beef and veal 
market as a whole, the production and consumption prospects within the 
Community and the scope for exports of young male bovine animals by the non-
member countries. 
This estimate relates to the period 1 January to 31 December 1994. It has 
been prepared in the light of information available to the commission and on 
the basis of the foreseeable trend for 194 of supplies of and requirements 
for young male bovine animals intended for fattening in the Community. The 
particular circumstances in the non-member countries can also be taken into 
account, while ensuring that the number of head to be imported in 1994 will 
be limited to the traditional level of 425 000 head. To that end, the 
commission, acting pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1157/92 of 28 
April 1992, introduced management measures concerning imports of young 
bovine animals weighing 80 kilograms or less, which replaced the safeguard 
clause in 1992. It will continue to apply appropriate management measures if 
forecasts suggest that imports into the Community could exceed 425 000 head 
and that such imports of beef could threaten seriously to disturb the 
community market. 
1. Assessment of Community supplies for 19*94 
In view of the number of breeding females (cows and heifers) 
anticipated for 1994 (about 36 000 000), some 28 600 000 births of 
calves are expected during that year. Production over the year of 
male calves would therefore be about 14 300 000 head in 1994. 
2. Estimated Community requirements for 1994 
2.1. On the basis of data collected from the Member states, the number of 
slaughterings of male calves envisaged for 1994 should be about 
4 200 000 head. 
2.2. The number of male animals intended for slaughter (steers, fattened 
young bulls or bulls for breeding) should be about 10 200 000 head. 
? 
2.3. In the light of information provided by the Member states and of the 
above, it is expected that in 1994 the requirements of community 
livestock farmers as regards young male bovine animals for fattening 
will be 10 200 000 head. 
2.4. From the considerations set out in 2.1. and 2.3. it follows that the 
Community's overall requirements for male calves will be !4 400 000 
head in 1994. 
These requirements cannot be wholly satisfied by Community supplies of these 
animals, which, as demonstrated in point 1, amount to about 14 300 000 head. 
CONCLUSION 
In the light of the above estimates, a slight Community shortfall may be 
expected in 1994. 
However, in order to maintain harmonious trade relations with the non-member 
countries concerned, as in 1993, the number of young male bovine animals 
which may be imported under the estimated supply balance for 1994 should be 
fixed at the same level, i.e. 198 000 head, taking account of the 
traditional level of imports which the commission envisages for 1994.

Proposal for an estimate concerning beef and veal intended for the 
processing industry for the period 1 January to 31 December 1994 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, 
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the 
common organization of the market in beef and veal1, as last amended by 
Regulation (EEC) No 125/932, and in particular Article 14(2) thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS ESTIMATE: 
Introduction 
Article 14(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 provides that each year, before 
1 December, the Council, acting by a qualified majority on a proposal from 
the Commission, must draw up an estimate of meat which may be imported under 
the system laid down in that Article. This estimate must take account both 
of the forecast Community supplies of meat of a quality and type of cut 
suitable for industrial use and of industrial need. The estimate is to 
mention separately the quantities: 
(a) intended for the manufacture of preserves which do not contain 
characteristic components other than beef and jelly; 
(b) intended for the processing industry for the manufacture of products 
other than the preserves referred to in (a). 
The annual presentation of the draft estimate is preceded by consultations 
between the Commission and certain non-member countries. The purpose of 
these meetings is to review the overall situation of the beef market in the 
Community and the non-member countries, as well as current forecasts of 
production and consumption so that a joint analysis can be made of the 
1 OJ No L 148, 28.6.1968, p.24. 
2 OJ No L 18, 27.1.1993, p. 1. 
f 
factors which could contribute towards drawing up estimates of community 
requirements for frozen beef for processing and so that information 
concerning the potential export market can be exchanged. 
The Commission has consulted representatives of Argentina, Uruguay, 
Australia, New Zealand, Hungary, Poland and Romania. 
CHAPTER I 
Supplies of meat for processing 
According to information supplied to the Commission by the Member States, 
Community supplies of home-produced fresh meat for processing for 1994 can 
be estimated at 1 239 000 tonnes of bone-in meat. 
At the end of 1993 the Community will hold a large public stock of meat as a 
result of intervention buying. The quantity of this meat suitable for 
processing can be estimated at 443 000 tonnes of bone-in meat. 
At the end of 1993 ho meat will be held in cold stores under the private 
storage aid scheme. 
With effect from 1 January 1994 the Community intends to open a tariff quota 
for 53 000 tonnes of boned frozen meat, which corresponds to 68 900 tonnes 
of bone-in meat. 
Past experience indicates that, under this quota, 13 000 tonnes of frozen 
bone-in meat will be imported for processing in 1994. 
In 1994 the quantity of meat originating in Botswana, Kenya, Madagascar, 
Zimbabwe, Swaziland and Namibia to be imported into the Community which 
satisfies the requirements for processing may be estimated at 7 000 tonnes 
of bone-in meat. 
For 1994 the total available supplies intended for processing will thus be 
as follows: 
s* 
(tonnes) 
fresh meat: 1 239 000 
frozen meat bought into intervention 443 000 
frozen meat stored under the system 
of private storage aid 0 
frozen meat imported under GATT quota: 13 000 
frozen meat imported under ACP 
Convention arrangements: 7 000 
TOTAL 1 702 000 
CHAPTER II 
Industrial demand for meat for processing 
According to information supplied to the Commission by the Member states, 
Community demand for meat for processing in 1994 can be estimated at 
1 399 000 tonnes of bone-in meat. 
This figure includes the quantity required for the preparation of preserved 
foods as referred to in Article 14(1)(a) of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68. This 
latter quantity is estimated at 204 000 tonnes. 
CONCLUSION 
It emerges from the foregoing that Community availabilities of meat for 
processing will exceed industrial requirements in 1994. The estimate of the 
quantity of beef and veal intended for the processing industry which may be 
imported in 1994 under the arrangements provided for in Article 14 of 
Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 is therefore fixed at zero tonnes.

PROPOSAL FOR 
Council Regulation (EC) No 
of 
opening, for 1994, as an autonomous measure, a special import quota 
for high-quality, fresh, chilled or frozen beef and veal 
falling within CN codes 0201 and 0202 and for products falling 
within CN codes 0206 10 95 and 0206 29 91 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in 
particular Article 43 thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament1, 
whereas, given past imports of high-quality beef and the need to export beef 
produced in the Community, provision should be made for the opening for 
1994, as an autonomous and exceptional measure, of a Community import tariff 
quota for 11 430 tonnes of high-quality, fresh, chilled or frozen beef 
falling within CN codes 0201 and 0202 as well as products falling within CN 
codes 0206 10 95 and 0206 29 91 at a duty of 20 % and exempt from levy; 
Whereas it should be laid down that, where the maximum quantities of high-
quality meat imported under favourable terms within the tariff quotas opened

products falling within CN codes 0206 10 95 and 0206 29 913 are exceeded as 
a result of irregularities, the total volume set by this Regulation may be 
reduced by the amount of such excess imports; 
Whereas equal and continuous access for all operators concerned in the 
Community to the said quota and the uninterrupted application of the rate 
laid down for that quota to all imports of the products concerned in all the 
Member States until the volume provided for is exhausted should in 
particular be ensured; whereas, to that end, a system for utilizing the 
Community tariff quota, based on the presentation of a certificate of 
authenticity guaranteeing the type, provenance and origin of the products is 
required; 
Whereas rules for the application of these provisions should be adopted in 
accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 27 of Council Regulation 
(EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in 
beef and veal^, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 125/935, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
Article 1 
1. A special tariff quota for high-quality, fresh, chilled or frozen beef 
and veal falling within CN codes 0201 and 0202 and for products falling 
within CN codes 0206 10 95 and 0206 29 91 is hereby opened for 1994. 
The total amount of this quota shall be 11 430 tonnes expressed in weight 
of the product. 
Pursuant to the procedure laid down in Article 27 of Regulation (EEC) 
No 805/68, however, where, as a result of irregularities, quantities 
exceeding the quantities provided for under Regulations (EEC) No 3391/92 
and/or (EEC) No 929/93 have been imported, the Commission may reduce the 
said volume. The reduction shall be counted against the volume allocated 
to the third country from which the meat concerned was imported.
