COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) N°  3634/87of 11 November 1987amending Regulation (EEC) N° 526/86 on transitional measures applicable  to trade within the Community in goods obtained in Spain, in Portugal or in another Member State  under a procedure for the relief from, or drawback of, customs duties or other import charges -  compensatory levyTHE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Articles 50 (3) and  210 (3) thereof, and Article 8 (3) of Protocol 3 thereto, Whereas at the time of the adoption of Commission Regulation (EEC) N° 526/86 (1), it was felt  advisable to set the percentage rate of the compensatory levy for a limited period only, in order  to be able to take account of the experience thus gained when setting the rates applicable at later  stages; whereas the same Regulation set the percentage rate of the levy in question only for the  period from 1 March 1986 to 31 December 1987; whereas it is consequently necessary to set the  percentage rate of the compensatory levy for the period from 1 January 1988 to the end of the  transitional period; Whereas during the period in which Regulation (EEC) N° 526/86 has been in force no problem has  arisen concerning its application; whereas it may therefore be concluded that the criteria chosen  in that Regulation for fixing the percentages of the compensating levy may again be used for fixing  the percentages applicable for the following period; whereas, for that second period, it is  consequently sufficient to amend and supplement according to those criteria the lists and  percentage rates of compensatory levy laid down in Regulation (EEC) N° 526/86 so as to take account  of the provisions of the Act of Accession; Whereas, in addition, the abovementioned lists were drawn up on the basis of the nomenclature laid  down by Council Regulation (EEC) N° 950/68 of 28 June 1968 on the Common Customs Tariff (2), as  last amended by Regulation (EEC) N° 2184/87 (3); whereas Council Regulation(EEC) N° 2658/87 of  23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (4)  repeals and replaces, from 1 January 1988, Regulation (EEC) N° 950/68, adopting a new tariff and  statistical nomenclature (Combined Nomenclature) basedon the International Convention on the  Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System; whereas it is therefore necessary to base the  lists in question on that new nomenclature, HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: Article 1Regulation (EEC) N° 526/86 is hereby amended as follows: 1.
