COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3993/88  of 21 December 1988  amending Regulation (EEC) No 3665/87 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of export refunds on agricultural products THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,  Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2221/88 (2), and in particular Article 16 (6) thereof, and to the corresponding  provisions of the other Regulations on the common organization of the markets in agricultural products,  Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2746/75 of 29 October 1975 laying down general rules for granting export refunds on cereals and criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds (3), and in particular Article 8 (2), second subparagraph, and  (3) thereof, and to the corresponding provisions of the other Regulations laying down general rules on the grant of export refunds for agricultural products;  Whereas the rate of refund is determined by the tariff classification of a product; whereas that classification may, for certain goods put up in sets and classified pursuant to paragraph 3 (b) of the general rules for the interpretation of the combined  nomenclature, lead to the grant of a higher refund than is economically justified; whereas special provisions must therefore be adopted for determining refunds in the case of goods put up in sets;  Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3665/87 (4), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3494/88 (5), replaces Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2730/79 (6), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1180/87 (7), and whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No  2730/79 had earlier replaced Commission Regulation (EEC) No 192/75 (8), which in turn had replaced Regulation No 1041/67/EEC (9); whereas a number of Regulations still contain references to Regulations No 1041/67/EEC and (EEC) No 192/75; whereas, for  reasons of clarity and comprehension, a table which sets out the changes in the references to the texts in force should be included in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 3665/87;  Whereas by the same token a number of errors in the original text of Regulation (EEC) No 3665/87 should be corrected, such corrections not entailing any changes of substance;  Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the management committees concerned,  HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:    Article 1   Regulation (EEC) No 3665/87 is hereby amended as follows:  1.
