*****COMMISSION  REGULATION (EEC) No 2097/84  of 20 July 1984  on payment of provisional financial compensation for dried grapes from the 1981 harvest  THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN  COMMUNITIES,  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,  Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 516/77 of 14 March 1977 on the common organization of the market in products processed from fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 988/84 (2),  Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2194/81 of 27 July 1981 laying down the general rules for the system of production aid for dried figs and dried grapes (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2057/84 (4), and in particular Article 14 thereof,  Whereas Article 10 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 2194/81 provides for financial compensation for dried figs and dried grapes purchased by storage agencies; whereas Article 9 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2425/81 of 20 August 1981 laying down detailed rules for the application of the system of aid for dried grapes and dried figs (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3334/83 (6), provides for the payment of financial compensation for the quantity of products sold;  Whereas the quantity remaining in stock attracts a storage aid pursuant to Article 10 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2194/81; whereas the storage aid covers the technical storage costs and interest costs calculated on the purchase price; whereas the dried fruit from the 1981 harvest can, at present, only be sold for specific purposes; whereas the selling price of the products is known to be lower than the purchase price; whereas payment of provisional financial compensation corresponding to that price difference would reduce the expenditure on storage aid; whereas the price difference can be estimated on the basis of past experience;  Whereas payment of provisional financial compensation must be calculated on the quantitities of products which are actually in stock; whereas stocktaking must be carried out; whereas for administrative reasons the quantities of products which are already sold but not taken over by the purchaser should not obtain provisional financial compensation;  Whereas stocktaking will make it possible to determine losses during storage; whereas financial compensation for natural losses as referred to in Article 2 (2) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1325/84 of 14 May 1984 laying down detailed rules for determining the financial compensation for dried figs and dried grapes for a given marketing year (7) should become payable after stocktaking and an application for financial compensation for losses due to too long a period of storage should be examined;  Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Products Processed from Fruit and Vegetables,  HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:  Article 1  1. In respect of dried grapes and dried figs bought in pursuant to Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 2194/81 during the marketing years 1981/82 and 1982/83, storage agencies shall undertake a physical stocktaking of the quantities which are in stock on 31 July 1984 at 12 midnight (local time).  2.
