are, in particular, to ensure a fair standard of living 
for the agricultural community, to ensure that sup­
plies 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, 
the production aid must be fixed in the light of the 
impact which the consumption aid has on part 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 Article 81 of the 1979 Act of Accession laid 
down the criteria for fixing the production aid appli­
cable in Greece; whereas, on these criteria, the 
abovementioned aid should be fixed at the level 
indicated below; 
Whereas the production target price and the inter­
vention price are fixed for a specific standard 
quality; whereas the reasons which led to the deter­
mination of the standard quality for the 1981/82 
marketing year are still valid; whereas that standard 
quality should therefore remain unchanged,

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN 
COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the Euro­
pean Economic Community, 
Having regard to Council Regulation No 136/66/

— for the other Member States: 72,02 ECU per 
100 kilograms; 
(c) intervention price 229,92 ECU per 100 kilo­

Article 2

Article 3 
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 1984.

Whereas, under Article 10 of Regulation No 136/ 
66/EEC, the representative market price, the inter­
vention 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 1985; 
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 Com­
munity, the average storage costs should be estab­
lished 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 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 1984/85 
marketing year

Whereas Article 5 of Council Regulation No 136/ 
66/EEC of 22 September 1966 on the establishment

and of the yields of such trees, as determined 
according to a standard method; 
Whereas experience has shown that the number of 
persons qualifying for the aid and the number of 
checks to be carried out prior to the granting thereof 
are very large, resulting in a substantial amount of 
control work; whereas, therefore, for reasons of 
sound administrative management, provision 
should be made for granting the production aid to 
small producers on a flat-rate basis;
