Proposal for a 
COUNCIL REGULATION (EC)

EXPLANATORY MBVQ14NDCM 
Council Regulation (EEQ No 3759/92 of 17 December 1992 on the common 
organization of the market in fishery and aquaculture products covers a new species, 
included in particular in the list of eligible products in Annex I thereto, as a result of the 
review of the organization in the wake of the enlargement of the European Union. ~ 
The guide price must accordingly be fixed for that product for the 1995 fishing year in 
accordance with Article 9 of Regulation (EEQ No 3759/92 and to that end Regulation 
(EQ No 3136/94, which fixes the prices for products already covered by the common 
organization of the market before the entry into force of the review, must be amended 
accordingly. 
In addition, since the amended version of Regulation (EEQ No 3759/92 came into force 
on 1 January 1995, from that date producer organizations qualify under the market 
measures relating to the new product concerned. The proposed Regulation should 
accordingly apply from 1 January 1995. 
This proposal for a Council Regulation amending Regulation (EQ No 3136/94 sets out 
to achieve that aim 
This proposal has no direct financial impact on the Community budget (financial 
statement appended).

Proposal for a 
COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 
of 
amending Regulation (EC) No 3136/94 fixing the guide prices for the fishery products listed in Annex 1 
(A), (D) and (E) of Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 for the 1995 fishing year 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, 
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 of 17 December 1992 on the common organization 
of the market in fishery and aquaculture products1, as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 3318/942, and 
in particular Article 9 (3) thereof 
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92 of 28 December 1992 on the unit of account and 
the conversion rates to be applied for the purposes of the common agricultural policy3, as last amended by 
Regulation (EC) No 150/95 of 30 January 19954, and in particular Article 12 and Article 13 (1) thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Whereas the aim of Article 1 (10) of Regulation (EC) No 3318/94 was in particular to introduce a new 
product eligible under the intervention mechanisms of the common organization of the market; whereas the 
application of those mechanisms calls for the 
fixing of a guide price for the new product concerned in accordance with Article 9 (1) and (2) of 
Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92; 
Whereas, moreover, there no longer appears to be any justification for maintaining two guide prices for 
herrings for the 1995 fishing year; 
Whereas Council Regulation (EC) No 3136/94 of 15 December 19945 fixes the guide prices for the 1995 
fishing year for the fishery products covered by the common organization of the market before the entry into 
OJ No L 388, 31.12.1992, p.l. 
OJNoL350, 31.12.1994, p. 15. 
OJ No L 387, 31.12.1992, p. 1. 
OJ No L 22, 30.1.1995, p. 1. 
OJ No L 332, 22.12.1994, p.4. 
force of Regulation (EC) No 3318/94; whereas it must accordingly be amended to include the guide price 
for the new product and the single guide price for herrings; 
Whereas the entry into force of the amendment to Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 on 1 January 1995 entitles 
the producer organizations to the Community contribution for intervention on the market relating to the new 
product as from that date; whereas provision should accordingly be made for this Regulation to apply from 
1 January 1995; 
Whereas the operative events for the conversion rates to be applied for the calculation of certain amounts 
under the common organization of the market in fishery products are determined by Commission Regulation 
(EC) No 3516/936; whereas, as a result, the relevant agricultural conversion rate for the period 1 to 31 
January 1995 is to be multiplied by the correcting factor 1,207509; whereas the guide prices for that period 
must be fixed accordingly, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
Article 1 
1. Point 1 of the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 3136/94 is hereby replaced by that set out in the Annex 
hereto. 
2. Point 27 in the Annex hereto is hereby added to the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 3136/94. 
Article 2 
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal 
of the European Communities. 
It shall apply from 1 January 1995. 
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

BUDGET? 
WILL A SUPPLEMENTARY BUDGET BE NECESSARY? NO 
6.3. WILL FUTURE BUDGET APPROPRIATIONS BE NECESSARY? YES 
OBSERVATIONS Since the fixing of prices is concerned, the impact on expenditure is indirect. The expenditure 
concerned depends largely on the market trend and the quantities landed. In addition, the budget 
estimate for the 1995 fishing year took account of the new product and any measures connected 
with the latter will not entail additional expenditure.
