COM(93) 639 final 
Brussels, 1 December 1993 
REPORT FROM THE COMMISSION TO THE COUNCIL 
and a 
Proposal for a 
COUNCIL REGULATION ( EC) 
relating to the continued import of New Zealand butter 
into the United Kingdom on special terms. 
(presented by the Commission) 
rage * 
EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 
1. Council Regulation (EEC) n* 3841/92 relating to the continued import of 
New Zealand butter into the United Kingdom on special terms was adopted 
on |7 December 1992. It provided for the continuation for 1993 of New 
Zealand butter imports upto a maximum quantity of 51.830 tonnes. 
The Regulation provides that before 1 October 1993, the Council, acting 
unanimously on a proposal from the Commission accompanied by a report, 
must take a decision on the maintenance of the exceptional arrangements 
from 1 January 1994. 
The above mentioned report is herewith submitted to the Council. 
2. In light of this report and of the market situation, the Commission 
proposes that the current arrangements should continue for a further year 
while awaiting the outcome of the Uruguay Round of Multilateral Trade 
Negot iat ions. 
3. Since the regime foreseen by Article 5 (2) of Protocol 18 is directly 
linked to measures covered by the Common Commercial and Agricultural 
Policy, it must be established at community level. 
4. The Council (Agriculture) should adopt this proposal at its December 1993 
meeting at the latest by which time the negotiations with New Zealand on 
the extension until December 1994 of the adaptations to the sheep and 
goatmeat voluntary restraint agreement, which expires on 31 December 
1993, should also be concluded.

I. Introduction 
1. Protocol n' 18 attached to the Treaty, concerning the accession of the 
Kingdom of Denmark, Ireland and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and 
Northern Ireland to the European Economic Community signed on 22 January 
1972, on the import of New Zealand butter and cheese into the United 
Kingdom authorized the United Kingdom, as a transitional measure, to 
import from New Zealand certain quantities of butter and cheese. The 
Protocol provided for the progressive reduction of quantities. Access for 
cheese under special conditions was terminated on 31 December 1977 while 
access for butter which must be approved unanimously by the Council on 
each occasion has been maintained upto 31 December 1992. 
The annual quantities in tonnes fixed in Protocol n' 18 were: 
Year Butter Cheese 
1973 165 111 68 580 
1974 158 902 60 960 
1975 151 994 45 720 
1976 145 084 30 480 
1977 138 176 15 240 
The import of these quantities was conditional on the respect at the CI F 
stage of a minimum import price and benefited from a reduced levy, both 
of which were fixed by the Council. The eligible butter was defined as 
salted butter and was confined to the UK market. 
A GATT quota for 9 500 tonnes of New Zealand Cheddar cheese eligible for 
import into the Community was fixed from 1980, following the Tokyo Round 
of Multilateral Trade Negotiations concluded in 1979. 
2. The European Council meeting in Dublin on 10 March 1975 laid down 
guidelines for the maintenance of the arrangements for butter after 1977 
and suggested approximate quantities for the period upto 1980. That 
summit also encouraged closer cooperation between the Community and New 
Zealand with the objective of promoting in their mutual interest an 
orderly operation of world markets. The latter was successfully achieved 
on the establishment in 1980 of the International Dairy Arrangement 
under the auspices of the GATT. 
In accordance with Article 5 of Protocol n' 18 and with individual 
Articles of successive Council Regulations maintaining these exceptional 
arrangements, the Commission has carried out a number of reviews, 
reported to the Council and accompanied the reports with appropriate 
proposals. 
3. The regime established in 1973 was extended for three years by Council 
Regulation (EEC) n* 1655/76 of 29 June 1976 (and again up to the end of 
1983 by Council Regulation (EEC) n* 858/81 of 1 April 1981). However, 
the latter Regulation only established quantities for 1981 and 1982; the 
Council fixed the 1983 quantity in Regulation (EEC) n* 642/83 of 15 March 
1983 at 87.000 tonnes, 2.000 tonnes less than that proposed by the 
Commission. The access for 1984 and following two years was agreed by 
the Council on 14 July 1984. 
Page 6 
For the years 1987 and 1988 the Commission submitted its proposals in 
July 1986 but final agreement on the quantities was not reached in the 
Council until July 1987 at 76.500 tonnes for 1987 and 74.500 tonnes for 
1988. 
The volumes for 1989 to 1992 were fixed in Council Regulation (EEC) n* 
2967/89 of 25 September 1989. To avoid any interruption in access during 
the first three quarters of 1989 the Council authorized imports on a 
month by month basis upto the end of September 1989. 
4. The most recent report on these arrangements was presented in COM (92) 
479 Final of 24 November 1992 together with a Commission proposal on 
quantities for 1993. The Council approved the proposal following a 
reduction of 3 170 tonnes in the volume proposed. This reduction was 
the same as that agreed for 1992:

due to a shortage of supply and partly because New Zealand wanted to 
maintain outlets other than the United Kingdom.

5. The obligation to respect a minimum import price coupled with a reduced 
levy was abolished from 1 April 1981 in favour of a simpler system based 
on a import levy equal to 25% of the intervention price. From 1989 
onwards the levy was reduced to 15% of the intervention price. The import 
levy charged on imports of New Zealand butter on special terms was fixed 
at 12% of the intervention price for 1993. 
6. Council Regulation (EEC) n* 3841/92 obliges the Commission to submit a 
report and a proposal to the Council with a view to taking a decision on 
the maintenance of the exceptional arrangements from 1 January 1994. The 
Council (Agriculture) is requested to take its Decision, by unanimity, at 
the latest, during its December 1993 meeting. 
11. Policy developments since the last report in 1992 
7. In June 1992 the Council approved the maintenance of the additional levy 
in the milk and milk products sector for a further seven consecutive 12 
month periods beginning on 1 April 1993. Agreement on the codified and 
simplified application rules was reached with the approval of Council 
Regulation (EEC) n* 3950/92 of 28 December 1992(1>. The detailed rules 
of application were published in Commission Regulation (EEC) 
n* 536/93(2) 9 March 1993. Following the Commission's report to the 
Council on the market situât ion*3) the Council adopted the deliveries 
and direct sales quotas for each Member State which were published in 
Council Regulation (EEC) n' 1560/93 of 14 June 1993<4). The report on 
the market situation concluded that the situation regarding milk fat gave 
rise to greater concern than that for milk protein and that an attempt to 
remedy the imbalance on the market for milkfat should be given priority 
over applying the 1% reduction to the guaranteed quantities decided in 
principle for the 1993/94 period. Following its examination of the 
market situation, the Council decided to defer any further quota 
reductions and to bring forward part of the reduction in the 
intervention price already decided for 1994/95. The effect of the 
reduction in the intervention price of butter combined with the influence 
of the monetary reduction coefficient was a 4.3% reduction in the butter 
intervention price from 1 July 1993 compared with the prices valid before 
that date. 
At the same time as the quotas for 1993/94 were established, provision 
was made for a programme for the restructuring of milk production in 
Member States. A sum of 40 M ECU was allocated for this purpose. 
8. In New Zealand, the Government has disengaged itself almost entirely from 
control and financial support of the primary sector as part of a general 
change in policy direction beginning in 1984. The New Zealand Government 
does not intervene in any way to fix or influence producer prices. 
In March 1988, the Government announced plans for deregulation of the 
town milk industry. The Milk Act 1988 provided for a 5 year transition 
period to total deregulation. During the transition period, provision 
was made to protect the home delivery service and limit price competition 
at the retail level. The Act expired on 31 March 1993, paving the way 
for total deregulation of the town milk sector.

The New Zealand Dairy Board (NZDB) established by the Dairy Board Act 
1961, is the single organization responsible for marketing dairy produce 
manufactured for export. The Dairy Board Amendment Act 1992 is chiefly 
notable for the fact that the principle of farmer ownership of the Board, 
through the cooperative dairy companies is now firmly enshrined in law. 
The Board purchases dairy products from dairy companies at standard 
prices reflecting actual or anticipated prices on world markets. 
Farmgate prices paid by dairy companies can vary depending on their 
financial status and relative efficiencies. At times the Board may 
retain some returns from sales for reserves and at others pay out from 
reserves. These are completely independent decisions made by the Board. 
III. Developments in the UK market 
9. Since the introduction of the supplementary levy system, milk deliveries 
in the UK fell by almost 2.8 million tonnes and butter production fell by 
about 144 thousand tonnes. Total butter consumption in the same period 
fell by about 89 thousand. 
In 1992 milk deliveries in the UK declined by 0.7% or about 100 000 
tonnes, butter production by 12.5% or by about 14 000 tonnes and butter 
consumption declined by 2% or about 5 000 tonnes. Total butter imports 
increased in 1992 by 20% to about 119 thousand tonnes while total butter 
exports increased by 35% to about 49 thousand tonnes. Butter imports 
from 3rd countries mainly from New Zealand decreased by 21% to about 46 
thousand tonnes and exports to 3rd countries increased by 50% to about 
5 400 tonnes. Butter imports from other Member States in 1992 were 50% 
higher than in 1991, at about 73 500. 
While butter exports to other Member States were 33% higher at about 
43 200 tonnes, the UK trading pattern in 1992 particularly from September 
onwards was mainly influenced by monetary events particularly the 
imminent disappearance of the monetary compensatory system from 1 January 
1993. 
No butter was bought into intervention in 1992 and the intervention 
stocks of butter in the United Kingdom in December 1992 amounted to 9 940 
tonnes. There were no publicly financed private stocks of butter in the 
UK at that date. 
The butter price in Great Britain in 1992 peaked at 93.8% of the 
intervention price in August and fell to about 89% in December. 
10. In the first seven months of 1993, milk deliveries in the UK were 0.7% 
less than during the corresponding months of 1992. The production of 
butter, skimmed milk powder and cheese were about 10%, 19% and 3% higher 
respectively in 1993 than during the corresponding period of 1992. The 
production of whole milk powder was 16% lower in 1993. 
Milk deliveries during the first 4 months of the 1993/94 quota year were 
5.6% below the estimated quota for that period. 
Butter imports into the UK from New Zealand during the 1st seven months 
of 1993 amounted to almost 31 000 tonnes, almost 60% of the 1993 quota. 
Butter exports from the UK to third countries during the first 6 months 
of 1993 at 2 300 tonnes were 28% below the corresponding level in 1992. 
HPage 9 
In 1993, 4 732 tonnes of butter were purchased by the UK intervention 
agency upto the end of September 1993, mainly in January, ApriI, May and 
June. About 4 800 tonnes of butter were sold from intervention during 
the first 8 months of 1993 mainly for use in the pastry and ice cream 
manufacturing sectors. 
The butter price in Great Britain in 1993 was about 88% of the 
intervention price of 292.78 ECU/100kg upto 1 July, prices were around 
91% of the intervention price of 280.33 ECU/100kg in September 1993. 
With milk deliveries below quota in 1993/94 by about 6% following the 
peak production months milk supplies are likely to show an increase on 
the previous year's levels for the remainder of the year with 
consequent increases in butter and skimmed milk powder production. 
11. Following the substantial changes which have taken place in the sterling 
exchange rate, wholesale prices of butter on the UK market have changed 
significantly in 1992 and in 1993. The price of UK produced bulk butter 
increased from about UK £2100/tonne in September 1992 to about UK 
£2450/tonne in April 1993 before falling back to about UK £2250/tonne in 
September 1993. The trend in the wholesale prices of small packs of 
butter (250gr) fol lowed that for bulk butter upto April 1993 and then 
plateaued at the higher level. In summary, the wholesale price of bulk 
butter increased by about £180/tonne in the 12 months to August 1993 
while the wholesale price of butter in small packs (250gr) increased by 
about £260/tonne. However, the wholesale price for home produced butter 
in small packs was reduced in September 1993 by UK £90/tonne. 
UK produced butter in small packs was selling at the wholesale stage at 
between £90 and £570/tonne more than New Zealand butter in a similar 
presentation upto September 1993 when the price of home produced produce 
was reduced to match the New Zealand price at the lower end of the range. 
Price trends for butter in small packs (250gr) at the retail level varied 
in direction and in magnitude in the period August 1992 to August 1993. 
The retail price of all butters increased by about 7%, for English butter 
it decreased by about 4% and for New Zealand butter it increased by 9%. 
In August 1992, New Zealand butter was 7% cheaper than English butter and 
in August 1993, New Zealand butter was 6% dearer than English butter. 
The increase in the retail price of non UK supplies is explained in part 
by the eltmination of monetary compensatory amounts. The decrease in the 
retail price of English butter may represent an effort to regain market 
share. It is estimated that UK produced butter occupies a 17% share in 
total consumer purchases of the packet butter market and New Zealand 
butter has a 28% share of that market. Blended butter occupies a 28% 
share of the packet butter market also; this product is made from butter 
of various origins.

IV. Developments In New Zealand 
12. As New Zealand producers of milk do not benefit from government support, 
the level of production fluctuates in response to changes in world prices 
for dairy products, the returns from alternative agricultural enterprises 
and the climate. According to the New Zealand Ministry of Agriculture 
and Fisheries in its Situation and Outlook for New Zealand Agriculture in 
1993, the number of dairy cows in the herd at the beginning of the 
1993/94 milk year will be about 0.3% more than at the beginning of the 
1992/93 milk year when they were 3.1% up on the previous year. 
Milkfat processed in 1993/94 is expected to increase. The New Zealand 
Dairy Board is suggesting a further 3% increase in total cows milk and a 
2 to 5% increase in milk solids available for processing. The number of 
dairy herds supplying dairies increased in New Zealand from the 1990/91 
milk season to the 1992/93 season by about 6% and the average herd size 
in 1992/93 was about 180 cows. 
The trends indicated in the last report in November 1992 seem to be 
continuing namely out of sheepmeat production into milk production and 
important increases in the number of specialized dairy farms of 100 
hectares or more. In 1992/93 there were 14 230 dairy farms supplying 
dairies in New Zealand. 
The final payout price for the 1992/93 milk year was fixed at 5.65 NZ$/kg 
of milkfat, 8.6% more than the final price for 1991/92 of 5.25 NZ$/kg. 
Dairies tend to supplement this price depending on their level of 
efficiency and other business activities. In 1992 the average farmgate 
price was 5.84 NZ$/kg of milkfat and in 1992/93 it was about 6.23 NZ$/kg. 
The New Zealand Department of Agriculture forecasts a farmgate price for 
1993/94 of 6.80 NZ$/kg milkfat. 
A basic price of 5.50 NZ$ per kg of milkfat was announced in May for the 
1993/94 mi Ik year. 
13. Total milk production in New Zealand in the 1992/93 milk year amounted to 
8.2 M tonnes of which about 480 thousand tonnes were used for liquid 
consumption. The fat content of New Zealand milk is about 4.7%. 
Whole milk powder and cheese production in New Zealand are continuing to 
show strong increases. In 1992/93 WMP product ion was almost 13% above 
the 1991/92 level and the increase in cheese production was over 4%. 
Production of butter (including butteroil and prepared fat mixes 
expressed as butter equivalent) in 1992/93 was about 4% less than in the 
previous year. The corresponding percentages for SMP was - 7% while 
casein production was unchanged. In 1993/94 WMP and cheese production 
are expected to increase by upto 13% in both cases. 
14. Exports of dairy products account for 12 to 14% of New Zealand's total 
exports. In the year ended June 1992 the percentage was 13.3%; the 
corresponding figure for 1990 and 1991 were 13.6 and 12.8% respectively. 
Butter exports in the years ended June 1989 to June 1992 accounted for 
32.5%, 34.4%, 26.9% and 29.5% respectively of the total value of dairy 
products exported. 
Page 11 
During the calendar year 1991, New Zealand butter exports to the UK 
accounted for 32% of New Zealand's total butter exports in volume terms 
and for 49% in value terms. The value of butter exports to the UK 
accounted for 13% of the value of all dairy exports from New Zealand. 
The value of butter exported to the UK accounted for about 1.9% of New 
Zealand's total exports of all products. 
In 1992, New Zealand butter exports to the UK accounted for 44% of tota 
butter exports in volume terms and for 61% in value terms. Butter 
exports to the UK accounted for almost 13% of the value of all dairy 
product exports and for 1.7% of the value of all New Zealand's exports. 
V. Developments in the Community 
15. The number of holdings in the Community with dairy cows is declining at 
the rate of about 7% per year or by almost 100.000 per year. The result 
of the December 1991 survey is available for 11 Member States. The 
number of dairy cow holdings in the Community (excluding the former 
German Democratic Republic for which data is not available) in December 
1991, is estimated at 1198 thousand holdings. The decrease in the number 
of holdings in the 1987 to 1989 period was about 6% per year. In the 1989 
to 1991 period the decrease has risen to 7% per year. A continuation of 
this trend would bring the number of holdings with dairy cows in the 
Community to about 1.04 million in December 1993. The average dairy herd 
size in the EC (excluding the former East Germany) in December 1991 was 
18 cows. 
Butter production in the Community in 1992 was 850.000 tonnes below the 
peak production level of over 2.5 million tonnes recorded in 1986. Had 
the considerable reform adopted by the Council in December 1986 not been 
implemented, butter production during the following 6 years, 1987 to 
1992, would have amounted to 15.2 million tonnes instead of the 11.7 
million tonnes actually produced, a decrease of about 580 000 tonnes per 
year. 
In 1992, Community milk deliveries were 1.64 million tonnes lower than in 
1991. The consequence of this on the production of dairy products was a 
decrease in butter production of 161 thousand tonnes, a decrease of 
337 thousand tonnes in SMP production, an increase of 166 thousand tonnes 
in cheese production, a decrease in WMP production of almost 50 thousand 
tonnes, an increase in condensed/evaporated milk production of over 45 
thousand tonnes and an increase in casein production of about 25 thousand 
tonnes. The volume of milk used in the manufacture of fresh products 
(including liquid milk) is increasing at the rate of about 1% per year. 
16. Despite the fall in deliveries, milk prices paid to producers in 1992, 
which in a number of important milk producing Member States showed an 
increase on the 1991 levels, were below the peaks reached in 1988/89. 
Page 12 
Intervention purchases of butter in 1992 amounted to 48 350 tonnes and 
there were no purchases of SMP into intervention. The table below 
indicates the intervention purchases in recent years (1,000t) :

Community exports of dairy products in 1992 in milk equivalent terms 
(excluding casein and fresh products) amounted to almost 14 million 
tonnes or 8% more than in 1991 mainly due to improved exports of SMP and 
condensed milk. However, about 100 000 tonnes of the 390 thousand tonnes 
of SMP was accounted for by food aid and donations to Eastern Europe. 
17. In 1993, milk deliveries in the EC for the first 7 months are slightly 
(0.1%) below the corresponding deliveries in 1992, butter and cheese 
production is at the same level, SMP production is up by about 8% and WMP 
production is down by about 4%. However, in the April to July 1993 
period, despite a decrease in deliveries compared with the same period in 
1992 butter production is showing an increase of about 2.5%. 
The average EC butter price in ECU terms has been relatively stable 
through 1993. It has fallen from about 264 ECU/100kg, 90% of the 
intervention price valid upto 30 June 1993, to about 262 ECU/100kg, 93.7% 
of the intervention price valid from 1 July 1993. The SMP price on the 
internal market has fallen from about 115% of the intervention price in 
January 1993 to about 97% of the intervention price in September 1993. 
Small volumes of butter were bought into intervention in 1993; about 500 
tonnes/week in September. In August, about 11 000 tonnes of SMP were 
bought into intervention. 
rage « J 
Exports of dairy products from the Community in 1993 show positive trends 
for fresh products (+8%), condensed milk (+6%), WMP (+11%), butteroil 
(+22%) and cheese (+15%), when compared with the corresponding data for 
1992. While total exports of butter and SMP are well down on 1993 when 
food aid donations/transactions for 1992 are included, commercial exports 
show a positive trend of 9% in the case of SMP and 30% in the case of 
butter. 
18. Butter consumption in the Community in 1992 declined only slightly (0.5%) 
and a decrease of more than 2.5% is forecast for 1993. However, the 
quantities of butter used in the pastry and ice cream sectors in 
particular, may help to reduce the forecast decrease. Almost 40 000 
tonnes more butter (+14%) have been allocated to these industries in the 
January to September 1993 period than in the corresponding period in 
1992. 
The reductions in the aid levels paid on SMP used in animal feed and 
manufacture of casein implemented in late 1992 and early 1993 have led to 
reductions in the volumes of SMP and liquid skim used in these two 
outlets. In the first 7 months of 1993 aid was requested on 21% less SMP 
and on 34% less skimmed milk than in the corresponding period in 1992. 
19. In conclusion, the Community's dairy products market is in balance but 
worrying signs are beginning to emerge. Deliveries in the Community are, 
for the first 4 months of the quota year, 7% below quota (4% if the 
former German Democratic Republic is excluded). Butter production is 
increasing and uptake of skimmed milk with subsidies is declining. 
Purchases of SMP into intervention were recorded in August and the price 
of SMP declined sharply in 1993. Producers can be expected to reach 
their quotas with consequences for butter and SMP production increases. 
VI. World Market Situation 
20. The main influences on the world market are the supply and demand 
situation in Central and Eastern countries and in the Former Soviet 
Union, the supply and export subsidy situation in the USA, the value of 
the US$, the supply situation in Australia and New Zealand, the supply 
and subsidy situation in the EC and the level of oil prices and their 
influence on the demand for dairy products in oil supplying countries. 
While the world market is influenced by the GATT-lnternationaI Dairy 
Arrangement, the absence of dairy trading nations like Austria, Canada 
and the United States dilute its influence. World market prices for 
butter and butteroil have been at or close to the GATT minimum of 1350 
and 1625 US$/t, respectively for almost one year. SMP and WMP prices 
which were very strong in 1992 and upto August 1993 have fallen sharply 
since August. The prices are still well above the GATT minima however. 
Cheese prices have remained firm. 
The Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations forecast a 
decline of 1.1% in total world milk production in 1993 to 508 million 
tonnes. The trend in developing countries remains positive with a 2.5% 
increase forecast for 1993. It remains negative for developed countries 
with a -2.7% decrease forecast for 1993. 
Page 14 
The OECD is forecasting a slight increase in milk production in its group 
of countries for 1993 (+0.4%) with increases forecast for the US (+1.6%), 
Australia (+7.5%), New Zealand (+2%) and Japan (+2.8%). 
The GATT secretariat estimates that world milk production in 1992 
amounted to 513 million tonnes (incl. sheep, goat and buffalo milk) 2.5% 
below the 1991 level. Cows milk production declined by about 3% to 450 
million tonnes. Production continued to decline sharply in Central and 
Eastern Europe as well as in the Baltic Republics and other former Soviet 
Union republics. Production declined in the EC, in Nordic countries and 
in Canada. In contrast milk production in New Zealand reached record 
levels. Production also rose in Australia and in the United States. 
Output rose in general in developing countries particularly in India and 
China and in some Latin American countries. 
In 1993, world milk production is expected by the GATT Secretariat to 
fall by a further 1 to 2% but increased supplemental feeding should 
contribute to production exceeding 1992 levels in Australia and New 
Zealand. Further increases are expected in the US. 
The Secretariat reports a 2.5% decline in butter and butteroil production 
• in 1992 to 7.03 million tonnes and forecasts a further decline by about 
2% in 1992 to about 6.89 million tonnes. 
World production of SMP decreased by 8% in 1992 to 3.55 million tonnes 
and a further 5% reduction is forecast for 1993. Whole milk powder 
production in 1992 was 2.27 million tonnes - the same level as in 1991. 
World cheese production in 1992 (including curd) increased by 5.5% to 
nearly 15 million tonnes and a further 1% increase is expected in 1993. 
World butter consumption declined by 2% in 1991, the decline continued in 
1992 and a similar trend is expected for 1993. 
21. The lack of buying power in the Former Soviet Union and consequently 
demand for butter led the International Dairy Arrangement participants to 
adopt a derogation from the minimum price for butter and butteroil on 22 
June 1992. The derogation relates to a maximum quantity of butter of 
50 000 tonnes per participant, contracts must be concluded before 31 
December 1993 and imports into the Former Soviet Union must take place by 
31 March 1994. Only Finland, Poland and Hungary reported that contracts 
had been concluded; Finland for 3 OOOt at a price of 1 090 US$/t FOB, 
Hungary for 506 tonnes and Poland for 4 000 tonnes at 1017 US$/t FOB. 
Despite the very substantial reductions in milk deliveries and in the 
production of dairy products in Central and Eastern Europe and in the 
Former Soviet Union, the decline in consumption and the need for hard 
currency has led to export availabilities in these countries at 
compet it ive pr ices. 
Page lb 
In Poland, for example, between 1988 and 1992, milk deliveries fell from 
11.4 to 6.9 million tonnes, -39%. SMP production, in the same period 
fell by only 5% to 150 000 tonnes but reached over 170 000 tonnes in the 
intervening years. Exports of SMP between 1988 and 1992 went from 47 to 
91 thousand tonnes. Availability of domestic products, food aid 
donations and weak demand in the Former Soviet Union in 1993 have made 
sales of Polish and other country's SMP more difficult resulting in a 
build up of stock in those countries. A consequent downward pressure on 
world market prices resulted as countries sought outlets for their milk 
powders. 
22. In the United States the latest estimate by the US Department of 
Agriculture is that SMP and WMP production in 1993 will be 10.8 and 14.5% 
higher than in 1992. The production of SMP in 1993 is estimated at 430 
thousand tonnes and domestic consumption is forecast to drop to 263 
thousand tonnes, -22% leaving an exportable balance of 167 000t. The US 
stocks of butter and SMP at the end of September 1993 were 125 000 and 
8 000 tonnes, respectively. 
Effective from 7 July 1993 the US reduced its butter support price by 
almost 15% and increased the SMP support price by 6.3%. On 13 May 1992 
and on 17 January 1992, similar adjustments were introduced. 
Since the quota system was introduced in the EC, the US support price for 
butter has been reduced by 57% to 1 469 US$ or 1 075 green ECU/t. The EC 
buying in price has been reduced by 21% to 2 523 ECU/t during the same 
period. The US support price for SMP increased by 13.6% during the same 
period to 2 280 US$/t or 1 669 ECU/t. The EC intervention price for SMP 
increased by 2.7% to 1 702 ECU/t during the same period. The US cheese 
support price (Cheddar in 40 pound blocks) decreased by 17% to 2 469 
US$/t or 1 807 ECU/t. 
The support price of manufacturing milk in the 1984 to 1993 period was 
reduced by 20% to 22.27 US$/100kg or 16.30 ECU/100kg of milk with 3.67% 
butterfat. The target price for all milk with 3.7% fat content was 
reduced in the Community during the same period by 5% to 26.06 ECU/l00kg. 
Since the support price changes in the US, butter purchases by the 
Commodity Credit Corporation have practically ceased and about 8 000 
tonnes of SMP have been purchased as well as small volumes of cheese. 
Since 29 July 1993 when the CCC began to sell back butter from 
intervention, about 14 000 tonnes have been sold. 
Producer prices for milk in the US fell in July and August but are still 
about 14% above the support price. 
Under the Dairy Export Incentive Programme (DIEP), from 1 January to 
31 August 1993 the US had accepted bids to export 54 200 tonnes of SMP, 
12 100 tonnes of WMP, 4 360 tonnes of butter, 2 740 tonnes of cheese and 
3 220 tonnes of cheese. The subsidies paid in August 1993 were: 
SMP 800 to 998 US$ or 585 to 730 ECU green/t 
WMP 1055 to 1257 US$ or 772 to 920 ECU green/t 
Butter 600 to 740 US$ or 439 to 541 ECU green/t 
Butteroil 1132 to 1205 US$ or 829 to 882 ECU green/t 
Cheese 1200 to 1230 US$ or 878 to 900 ECU green/t 
Page 16 
The significance of the recent support price changes in the US is that 
the butter support price is now only 119 US$/tonne above the GATT minimum 
price. Taking the level of subsidies on export into consideration, US 
products should be competitive on the world market. The US aim is to 
export 205 thousand tonnes of milk powders in 1993, 48 thousand tonnes of 
butter and butteroil and 6 thousand tonnes of cheese. 
23. Currency developments have an impact on the competitiveness of suppliers 
to the world market as they have on demand. In the period August 1992 to 
August 1993, the YEN revalued by between 19 and 50% against the NZ$, the 
Australian $, the ECU and the US$. The US$ weakened against the New 
Zealand $ but revalued by about 7% against the Australian $. The 
commercial ECU devalued against the Australian, New Zealand and US 
dollar. The New Zealand $ revalued by over 30% against the UK . in the 
August 1992 to August 1993 period. 
VII. Conclusions 
24. The world market for butter and butteroil has been weak for over one 
year. Despite the substantial reductions in EC butter production the 
weak demand in the Former Soviet Union coupled with increased supplies 
from Oceania, increased commercial exports and food aid donations by the 
US and offers of butter from Eastern Europe have all contributed to 
keeping the butter and butteroil market in a depressed state. 
25. The world market for milk powders is showing some signs of weakness since 
late summer 1993. 
26. New Zealand producers are managing to maintain and even to expand 
production despite the absence of government support and lower prices 
than are enjoyed by producers in other developed countries, including the 
Community. Despite significant diversification in their dairy production 
and sales away from the traditional UK butter market, sales to that 
market still provide an important part, both of their total outlets for 
dairy products and of total New Zealand exports. 
27. The longterm future for New Zealand exports will be critically dependent 
on the terms of the final settlement of the Uruguay Round. This being so 
it does not seem appropriate to conclude a further multiannual extension 
of the Arrangement made under Protocol 18 but to extend the existing 
arrangements for a further year whilst awaiting the outcome of the GATT 
negotiations.

Article / 
/. The United Kingdom is authorized, as a transi­
tional arrangement, to import from New Zealand cer­
tain quantities of butter and cheese, on the following 
terms. 
2. The quantities referred to in paragraph I shall be: 
(a) in respect of butter, for the first five years: 
1973 165 811 metric tons 
1974 158 902 metric tons 
1975 151 994 metric tons 
1976 145 085 metric tons 
1977 138 176 metric tons 
(b) in respect of cheese: 
1973 68 580 metric tons 
1974 60 960 metric tons 
1975 45 720 metric tons 
1976 30 480 metric tons 
1977 15 240 metric tons 
The Council, acting by a qualified majority on a propo­
sal from the Commission, may make adjustments 
between those quantities of butter and cheese, provided 
that the tonnage expressed as milk equivalent corres­
ponding to the total quantities laid down for those two 
products for the year in question remains unaltered. 
3. The quantities of butter and cheese specified in 
paragraph 2 shall be imported into the United King­
dom at a price the observance of which must be guar­
anteed at the c.i.f. stage by New Zealand. That price 
shall be fixed at a level which enables New Zealand to 
realize a price representing the average price obtained 
by that country on the United Kingdom market during 
1969,1970,1971 and 1972. 
4. The product; imported into the United Kingdom 
in accordance with the provisions of this Protocol may 
not become the subject of intra-Community trade or of 
re-exportation to third countries. Article 3 
The Council, acting by a qualified majority on a propo­
sal from the Commission, shall adopt the measures 
necessary for implementing Articles I and 2. 
Article 4 
The Community shall continue its efforts to promote 
the conclusion of an international agreement on milk 
products so that, as soon as possible, conditions on the 
world market may be improved. 
Article 5 
I. The Council shall, during 1975. review the situa­
tion as regards butter in the light of prevailing condi­
tions and of supply and demand developments in the 
major producing and consuming countries of the 
world, particularly in the Community and in New Zea­
land. During that review, among the considerations to 
be taken into account shall be the following: 
(a) progress towards an effective world agreement on 
milk products, to which the Community and other 
important producing and consuming countries 
would be parties: 
(b) the extent of New Zealand's progress towards di­
versification of its economy and exports, it being 
understood that the Community will strive to pur­
sue a commercial policy which does not run 
counter to this progress. 
2. Appropriate measures to ensure the maintenance 
after 31 December 1977 of exceptional arrangements in 
respect of imports of butter from New Zealand, includ­
ing the details of such arrangements, shall be deter­
mined by the Council, acting unanimously on a propo­
sal from the Commission, in the light of that review 
3. After 31 December 1977, the exceptional arrange­
ments laid down for imports of cheese may no longer 
be retained.

ANNEX II 
TEXT OF THE STATEMENT ON NEW ZEALAND DAIRY IMPORTS ISSUED FOLLOWING 
THE EUROPEAN COUNCIL MEETING IN DUBLIN 10 MARCH 1975 
The Heads of Government meeting in Council at Dublin the 10th of March, 
underlines the importance which they attach to Protocol 18 of the Act of 
Accession, as regard the relations of the Community with New Zealand, a 
traditional supplier of dairy products to a substantial part of the enlarged 
Commun i t y. 
They invite the Commission to present a report in order to prepare the review 
provided for in Article 5 of the Protocol and to submit as soon as practicable 
a proposal for the maintenance after 31 December 1977. of special import 
arrangements as referred to in that Article. They observed that the 
institutions of the Community have already carried out certain price 
adjustments in the framework of the Protocol. In the same spirit, the 
Community, which remains attached to a fair implementation of the Protocol is 
ready to review periodically and if necessary to adjust the prices having 
regard to the supply and demand developments in the major producing and 
consuming countries of the world, and also to the level and evolution of 
prices in the Community - including intervention prices - and in New Zealand, 
taking moreover into account cost developments in New Zealand and trends in 
freight charges. 
As regards the annual quantities to be established by the Community 
institutions in the framework of the special arrangements after 1977, those 
should not deprive New Zealand of outlets which are essential for it. Thus 
for the period up to 1980, these annual quantities depending upon future 
market developments, could remain close to effective deliveries under Protocol 
18 in 1974 and the quantities currently envisaged by New Zealand for 1975. 
They note that Protocol 18 provides that the exceptional arrangements for the 
import of cheese cannot be maintained after 31 December 1977, and that this 
situation and the problems which may arise from it will be given due attention 
with appropriate urgency, taking into account also the considerations in the 
following paragraph. 
The Heads of Government note, moreover, that New Zealand and the Community 
together provide the major part of the worlds exports of dairy products. 
They, therefore, express the wish that, in the same spirit with which the 
Community approaches the application of Protocol 18, an even closer 
cooperation be developed between the institutions of the Community and the 
New Zealand authorities with the objective of promoting in their mutual 
interest an orderly operation of world markets. Such a cooperation, apart 
from its intrinsic value, should provide a basis from which to achieve, in a 
wider framework, the conclusion of an effective world agreement such as that 
foreseen in Protocol 18.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 3841/92 
of 17 December 1992 
relating to the continued import of New Zealand butter into the United 
Kingdom on special terms 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES. 
Having regard to the Act of the Accession of Denmark, 
Ireland and the United Kingdom, and in particular 
Article 5 (2) of Protocol 18 thereto. 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2967/89 (') authorized the 
United Kingdom to import certain quantities ot New 
Zealand butter on special terms during the calendar years 
from 1989 to 1992; 
Whereas the exceptional arrangements should continue in 
order to ensure continued imports from New Zealand , 
Whereas in view of the current state of the negotiations in 
the context of the Uruguay Round it is opportune to 
extend the existing arrangements for the access of New 
Zealand butter on special terms for one year and the 
annual rate of decrease in the volume should be main­
tained ; 
Whereas provision should be made that if the butter 
market requires changes in the conditions of intervention, 
such changes must be reflected in the price of New 
Zealand butter marketed in the Community; 
Whereas a special levy, which will normally remain 
unchanged as long as the intervention price for butter of 
Community origin is not altered, constitutes the most 
appropriate method for protecting the marketed price of 
Community butter and for enabling New Zealand to plan 
its exports to the United Kingdom, Article 2 
1. These arrangements shall apply from 1 January to 
31 December 1993. 
The following quantity may be imported in 1993 : 51 830 
tonnes. 
2. The Council, acting by a qualified majority on a 
proposal from the Commission, may reduce the quantity 
laid down in paragraph 1 in order to prevent serious 
disruption of the United Kingdom butter market particu­
larly in the case of a substantial fall in direct butter 
consumption. 
3. Before I October 1993, the Council, acting unani­

OBSERVATIONS : 
Le projet de budget pour 1994 a été déjà établi dans l'hypothèse qu'une quantité de 
51.830 tonnes de beurre néo-zélandais sera importée à des conditions spéciales pour 
l'année civile 1994. (Voir commentaire à la page 111/331 du projet de budget, Vol. 4)

(MLS/93/FF/002-5) 
ANNEXE 
Les calculs sont basés sur les hypothèses suivantes : 
a) Le règlement proposé entre en vigueur le 1er Janvier 1994. 
b) En appliquant le prélèvement normal, il n'y aurait pas d'importation 
de beurre néo-zélandais. 
c) En applicant le prélèvement réduit, il y aura des importations 
correspondant à la quantité fixe; il y aura des recettes en 
prélèvement mais, compte tenu de la situation de surplus, il sera 
nécessaire d'exporter une quantité correspondante de beurre 
communautaire. 
d) Les taux du prélèvement spécial et de la restitution à l'exportation 
s'élèvent respectivement à 338,4 ECU/tonne et à 1.600 ECU/tonne pour 
la période allant jusqu'au 30.06.1994 et, compte tenu de la réduction 
du prix d'intervention pour le beurre à partir du 1.07.1994, à 
331,4 ECU/tonne et à 1.580 ECU/tonne pour la période suivante. 
Ces taux correspondent aux hypothèses déjà retenues au projet de 
budget pour 1994.
