Itislaid down intheRegulation mentioned that thetransitional compensatory

PROPOSAL FOR ACQKJNCIL REGULATION
amending Regulation (EEC)NO181/73laying down general rulea forasystem
ofcompensatory amounts forbeef andveal
THECOUNCIL OPTHEEUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard totheTreaty concerning theaccession ofnewMember States
totheEuropean Economic Community and totheEuropean Atomic Energy Community .
(l),signed on22January 1972 ,andinparticular Article 62(l)oftheAct
thereto ,
Having regard tothe 'proposal from theCommission ,
Whereas movements inimport prices inthebeef andveal sector may load to .
thefixing oflevies atanamount lower than that ofthechargeable compensatory
amounts fixed inaccordance with Council Regulation (EEC)NOl8l/73(2)of
23January 1973 laying down general rules forasystem ofcompensatory amounts
forbeef andveal ,calculatod onthebasis ofthedifference between the
guide prices ;whereas therefore itisdesirable toprovide that this compen­
satory amount shall notexceed theamount ofthelevy ;
Whereas ,inorder toavoid deflection oftrade ,itisnecessary toapply the
lowering resulting from this limitation toallthecompensatory amounts for
theproduct inquestion ;
Whereas thenon-application ofthecompensatory amounts fixed inarticle ^
inRegulation (EEC)NOl8l/73forcalves andyoung bovine animals forfattening ,
foreseen inarticle 11ofRegulation (EEC)NO805/58gives cause forcertain
problems because those animals only differ from other live animals thereby
that they aremeant forfattening ;whereas theexisting provisions should
therefore beamended ,
