COM(86) 20 final 
(Submitted by the Commission to the Council on 14 February 1986) 
(86/C 85/09) 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European 
Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 
thereof, Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, 
and in particular Article 89(1) thereof, 
Having regard to Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC of 
22 September 1966 on the common organization of the 
No C 85/12 Official Journal of the European Communities 14. 4. 86 
market in oils and fats (*), as last amended by Regulation 
(EEC) No , and in particular Articles 4 (4), 5 (1) and 20 
(d) (1) thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament, 
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social 
Committee, 
Whereas, when the production target price for olive oil is 
fixed, account should be taken of the objectives of the 
common agricultural policy and of the contribution which 
the Community desires to make to the harmonious 
development of world trade; whereas the objectives of the 
common agricultural policy are, in particular, to ensure a fair 
standard of living for the agricultural community, to ensure 
that supplies are available and that they reach consumers at 
reasonable prices; 
Whereas the target price referred to above must be fixed in 
accordance with the criteria laid down in Articles 4 and 6 of 
Regulation No 136/66/EEC; 
Whereas, if the producer is to receive a fair income, a 
production, aid must be fixed in the light of the impact which 
the consumption aid has on part only of the production; 
Whereas the intervention price must be fixed in accordance 
with the criteria laid down in Article 8 of Regulation 
No 136/66/EEC; 
Whereas under Articles 68 and 236 of the Act of Accession of 
Spain and Portugal the olive oil intervention price set in each 
of these Member States differs from that of the common 
prices; whereas pursuant to Articles 92 and 290 of that Act, 
these prices should be aligned with the common price in 
annual steps at the beginning of each marketing year; 
whereas the rules on this alignment laid down give the 
Spanish and Portuguese prices shown below; 
Whereas Articles 95 and 293 of the Act of Accession provide 
for the granting of Community aid for the production of olive 
oil in Spain and in Portugal; whereas pursuant to Articles 79 
and 246 of the Act the amounts of this aid should be aligned 
at the beginning of the marketing year; whereas the rules on 
this alignment laid down give the Spanish and Portuguese aid 
rates shown below; 
Whereas the production target price and the intervention 
price are fixed for a specific standard quality; whereas the 
reasons which led to the determination of the standard 
quality for the 1981/82 marketing year are still valid; 
whereas that standard quality should therefore remain 
unchanged; 
(») OJ No 172, 30. 9. 1966, p. 3025/66. Whereas, in accordance with Article 20 d (1) of Regulation 
No 136/66/EEC, the percentage of the production aid that 
may be withheld for recognized organizations of olive oil 
producers or associations thereof should be so fixed that the 
resulting amount helps to finance the expenditure incurred in 
the work done pursuant to Articles 5 (3) and 20 c of the said 
Regulation; whereas the percentage should be set at a level 
which enables foreseeable expenditure in 1986/87 to be 
covered, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
Article 1 
For the 1986/87 marketing year, the production target price, 
the production aid and the intervention price of olive oil shall 
be as follows: 
(a) production target price: 322,56 ECU per 100 
kilograms; 
(b) production aids: 
— for Spain: 15,46 ECU per 100 kilograms, 
— for Portugal: 7,10 ECU per 100 kilograms,

(c) intervention price: 
— for Spain: 140,12 ECU per 100 kilograms, 
— for Portugal: 213,28 ECU per 100 kilograms, 
— for the Community as constituted on 31 December 
1985: 216,24 ECU per 100 kilograms.

oil with a free fatty acid content, expressed as oleic acid, of 
3,3 grams per 100 grams. 
Article 3 
For the 1986/87 marketing year the percentage of the 
amount of production aid which may be withheld pursuant 
to Article 20 d(l) of Regulation No 136/66/EEC for 
organizations of olive oil producers or associations thereof 
recognized under the said Regulation shall be 2,1 %.

Proposal for a Council Regulation fixing the monthly increases in the representative market price, the 
intervention price and the threshold price for olive oil for the 1986/87 marketing year 
COM(86) 20 final 
(Submitted by the Commission to the Council on 14 February 1986) 
(86/C 85/10) 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European 
Economic Community, 
Having regard to Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC of 
22 September 1966 on the establishment of a common 
organization of the market in oils and fats(J), as last 
amended by Regulation (EEC) No , and in particular 
Article 10 thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Whereas, under Article 10 of Regulation No 136/66/EEC, 
the representative market price, the intervention price and 
the threshold price for olive oil must be increased each month 
for a period of at least five months beginning on 1 January 
1987; whereas these increases must be the same for all three 
prices; 
Whereas, in fixing these increases the same for each of these 
months, account being taken of average storage costs and 
interest charges in the Community, the average storage costs 
should be established on the basis of the cost of storing oil in 
the appropriate premises and of the handling required for 
preserving the oil in good condition; whereas the interest 
charges can be calculated with reference to the average price 
of olive oil valid in production areas; Whereas, to ensure orderly marketing of the production, in 
view of the prospects for production and consumption, it is 
sufficient to provide for seven increases for olive oil, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
Article 1 
For the 1986/87 marketing year, the amount of the monthly 
increases referred to in Article 10 of Regulation No 
136/66/EEC and applicable for seven months with effect 
from 1 January 1987 shall be 1,79 ECU per 100 
kilograms. 
Article 2 
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day 
following its publication in the Official Journal of the 
European Communities. 
It shall apply from 1 November 1986.
