COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3778/91  of 18 December 1991  determining the rate at which the components intended to ensure protection of cereals and rice processing in Portugal are to be dismantled and fixing the amount thereof for 1992THE 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 3577/90 (2),  Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1418/76 of 21 June 1976 on the common organization of the market in rice (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1806/89 (4),  Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3653/90 of 11 December 1990 laying down transitional measures governing the common organization of the market in cereals and rice in Portugal (5), and in particular Article 10 (1) thereof,  Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3653/90 provided for dismantling over a period of 10 years from 1 January 1991 of the charges on imports from the other Member States into Portugal constituting the fixed components intended to protect Portuguese cereal and  rice processing; whereas, however, in the case of rice the dismantling process provided for in Article 286 (3) of the Act of Accession should continue to be applicable;  Whereas the base amounts to be adopted for dismantling or approximation are those set by Council Regulation (EEC) No 2744/75 of 29 October 1975 on the import and export system for products processed from cereals and from rice (6), as last amended by  Regulation (EEC) No 1906/87 (7), and those listed in Annex XXIV to the Act of Accession;  Whereas pursuant to Article 287 of the Act of Accession the gap between the fixed components applied in Portugal during the first stage of accession and those forming part of the charge on imports from third countries are to be reduced on 1 January 1992  to 66,6 % of the previous amount; whereas it is this new gap that should be used in determining the fixed components applicable in Portugal;  Whereas the fixed components are an import charge forming part of the imports levy; whereas from 1 January 1991 the levy applicable in the Community also applies in Portugal; whereas the provisions of Article 287 of the Act of Accession require that the  residual gap between the fixed components applicable in Portugal and these applicable in the Community be fixed, this new gap being added to the levy applicable in Portugal to imports from third countries;  Whereas, however, both Council Regulation (EEC) No 715/90 of 5 March 1990 on the arrangements applicable to agricultural products and certain goods resulting from the processing of agricultural products originating in the ACP States or in the overseas  countries and territories (OCT) (8), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 523/91 (9) and Council Regulation (EEC) No 3877/86 of 16 December 1986 on imports of rice of the long-grain aromatic Basmati variety of CN codes 1006 10, 1006 20 and 1006 30  (10), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3130/91 (11), apply to Portuguese imports of the products to which they relate;  Whereas a full table of the components intended to protect processing of cereals and rice should be published;  Whereas this Regulation entails the repeal of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3808/90 determining for 1991 the components intended to ensure protection of cereals and rice processing in Portugal (12);  Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,  HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:  Article 1  Dismantling of the fixed components mentioned in Article 273 of the Act of Accession intended to protect processing of cereals and rice shall, where intra-Community trade is concerned, be effected:  - for products made from cereals, in 10 equal stages of 10 %, or more if necessary, to prevent the protection applicable in trade between Portugal and the other Member States from exceeding that applicable in trade between Portugal and third countries,   - for products made from rice, as provided for in Article 286 (3) of the Act of Accession.  Article 2  1. On importation into Portugal from other Member States of products covered by Regulations (EEC) No 2727/75 and (EEC) No 1418/76 a component intended to protect processing in Portugal shall be charged the amount indicated in column 3 of the  Annex to this Regulation.  2. The levy applied on importation into Portugal of products listed in Annex XXIV to the Act of Accession from third countries shall, without prejudice to Articles 12 and 14 of Regulation (EEC) No 715/90 or to Regulation (EEC) No 3877/86 be increased by  the amount shown in column 4 of the Annex to this Regulation.  3. The amounts indicated in the Annex shall be valid from 1 January to 31 December 1992.  Article 3  Regulation (EEC) No 3808/90 is hereby repealed.  Article 4  This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 1992. This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
