ROZHODNUTIE RADY, 
ktorým sa ustanovuje pozícia Spolo čenstva, pokia ľ ide o pred ĺženie  
Medzinárodného dohovoru o olivovom oleji a stolových olivách z roku 1986 
(predložená Komisiou) 
 
SK 2   SK ODÔVODNENIE  
1. The International Agreement on Olive Oi l and Table Olives of 1986, of which the 
Community is a member, entered into force on 1 July 1986. It was amended in 1993 and its application prolonged to 1998. It ha s been extended for further periods until 
31 December 2004, when. it will expire. However, under Article 61 of the International Agreement on Olive Oil and Ta ble Olives of 1986 and Article 9 of the 
Protocol amending and extending the Agreem ent, the Internati onal Olive Oil Council 
(IOOC) may decide either to prolong the Agreement for successive periods not 
exceeding two years on each occasion or to put an end to that Agreement. 
2. The IOOC members are now negotiating a new Agreement. However, it is not yet 
clear if consensus of all current IOOC members on the new text will be achieved 
before expiry of the existi ng Agreement. On the other hand, there is not yet consensus 
of IOOC members on the adoption of a pack age of measures propos ed by the EC and 
intended to finally solve management problems  identified at the Secretariat of this 
organization. A decision in the course of its 91st session to  either prolong the 
Agreement for a further period of one year , until 31 December 2005, or to put an end 
to this Agreement will have theref ore to take place in December 2004. 
3. The budgetary implications are as follows: 
The European Community participation shar e pertaining to the IOOC Administrative 
Budget amounts to 750/1000, i.e. 75 %, which is paid under budget-item 05 06 01. 
The Community share of the IOOC-budget for 2004 as foreseen in the Draft General 
Budget of the European Commission for the financial year 2004 has been estimated at 
€ 3 923 000. Starting from the assumption of an increase of a maximum of 4 % for 
the year 2005 the Community share could,  at the most, increase to € 4 080 000 for 
that financial year. 
Moreover, the Agreement foresees an oblig atory contribution of € 500 000/year to the 
Promotion Fund to be paid under budget line 05 08 05. The European Community 
share is 802.8/1000, i.e. 80.28 % and, theref ore, amounts to € 401 400/year. This 
amount is fixed and will stay the same for the years 2004 and 2005. 
4. The purpose of this proposal is to au thorise the Commission on behalf of the 
Community to either vote in favour of  the prolongation of the Agreement until 
31 December 2005 if IOOC Members achieve consensus on the need to sufficiently improve the functioning of the IOOC Secretariat or to reject  further extensions of the 
current Agreement, pending the results of ongoing negotiati ons on both a new 
Agreement and a package of management  measures proposed by the EC. The 
Commission does, however, reserve the right to alter this proposal  once these results 
are available.

the accounts by own staff, as the case may be , on-the spot, and monitors the contracts. 
Moreover, the IOOC-members have recently ag reed upon an in-depth reform of the overall 
financial management of the IOOC.
