PROPOSAL FOR A 

COUNCIL REGULATION  (EEC) 

opening  for  1993, as an autonomous measure, a special  import tariff 
quota for high-quality  fresh, chilled or frozen beef and veal

(transmitted to the Council by the Commission) 

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 

The first draft estimated  supply balance  fixes the community's import 
requirements  for young bovine animals for fattening  at  198 000 head for 
1993. 

Under the second draft estimated  supply balance, Community  supplies of meat 
for processing  in 1993 are estimated to be greater than the Community 
industry's requirements  for beef  for processing.  It is accordingly 
proposed to set this balance at zero. 

In accordance with the bilateral agreements between the Community  an4 
certain supplier non-member countries  instituting cooperation  in the 
drawing up of the estimated  supply balances, consultations  took place on 
the drawing up of such import balances  for  1993T 

In view of the Community's concern to maintain harmonious trading  relations 
with those countries and  in view of the fact that the balance for meat for 
processing was  fixed at zero, the Commission proposes to open for 1993, as 
an autonomous measure, a tariff quota of  11 430 tonnes of high-quality  beef 
from animals fed principally  on grass at a customs duty of 20% and exempt 
from levy.

MEMORANDUM 

CONCERNING THE ESTIMATED SUPPLY BALANCE FOR 
YOUNG MALE BOVINE ANIMALS FOR FATTENING 

In accordance with undertakings entered into within the framework of the 
multilateral trade negotiations, the Commission proposed that Poland, 
Hungary, the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic and Romania take part in 
bilateral consultations concerning the estimated  supply balance for young 
male bovine animals intended  for fattening for 1993. 

REPLIES FROM THE COUNTRIES CONCERNED: 

ROMANIA 

The Romanian authorities outlined at length the economic  difficulties 
facing their country.  The production cooperatives have been dissolved 
while a programme  for the redistribution of land to the peasants, with aid 
from the PHARE project and in accordance with the recent land law, is under 
way.  Peasants will be allocated  10 hectares each. 

The Romanian authorities hope to export 75 000 to 100 000 young bovine inale 
animals  including  13% at a 65% reduction  in the levy.  Furthermore, within 
the framework of the Association Agreement, they hope to achieve  similar 
concessions to those granted to the other associate countries. 

I 

HUNGARY 

The Hungarian authorities  said that domestic consumption had fallen 
(108 000 tonnes  in 1991 and 86 000 tonnes  forecast in  1992); exports were 
suffering  accordingly  (102 000 tonnes in 1991 and 70 000 tonnes forecast in 
1992) . 

As regards the supply balance, the Hungarian authorities consider that the 
minimum weight of bovine animals should be reduced from 22 0 kg to 16 0 kg 
per head.  They also want a subquota under the supply balance and the 
Association Agreement. 

Exports to the Community  in 1992 could reach  15 300 head, whereas they were 
8 336 head  in 1991. 

POLAND 

The Polish authorities  stated that on account of the drought, total 
production had fallen but this will not affect exports of young bovine 
animals to the Community.  They also said that they wished to express their 
discontent regarding the period during which they are to export, i.e. 
summer, which made transactions more costly.  For this reason they 
requested a quota early. 

3 

CZECH AND SLOVAK FEDERAL  REPUBLIC 

The Czech and Slovak authorities also requested a reduction  in the minimum 
weight per head of young bovine animals from 220 kg to  160 kg. 

They also expressed concern at the increase in the quantity of meat for 
export as a result of the fall in domestic consumption, and interest in an 
increase in their share and/or the introduction of a separate quota for 
that country.

Proposal  for an estimate concerning young male bovine animals 
weighing  300 kilograms or less and intended  for  fattening 
for the period  1 January to 31 December  1993 

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic  Community, 

Having regard to council Regulation  (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June  1968 on the 
common organization of the market in beef and veal,* as last amended by 
Regulation  (EEC) No 2066/92,2  and in particular Article  13 thereof, 

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 

HAS ADOPTED THIS ESTIMATE: 

Introduction 

Article  13(2) of Regulation  (EEC) No 805/68 provides that each year before 
1 December the Council, acting by a qualified majority on a proposal  from 
the Commission, must draw up an estimate of the young male bovine animals 
which may be imported under the system laid down in that Article.  This 
estimate must take account both of the forecast supplies of young bovine 
animals intended  for fattening within the community and of Community 
livestock  farmers' requirements. 

In order to establish the volume of imports under this estimate as from 
1981, in accordance with the Community's undertaking within the General 
Agreement on Tariffs and Trade  (GATT), consultations  are held between the 
Commission and representatives of some non-member countries before the 
annual draft estimate  is put forward. 

1 OJ No L  148, 28.6.1968, p. 24. 
2 OJ No L 215, 30.7.1992, p. 49. 

Before drawing up this estimate, the Commission held consultations with 
representatives of the following non-member countries: Hungary, Poland, 
Czechoslovakia  and Romania. 

These consultations  included an exchange of views on the beef and veal 
market as a whole, the production and consumption prospects within the 
Community and the scope for exports of young male bovine animals by the 
non-member countries. 

This estimate relates to the period  1 January to 31 December  1993.  It has 
been prepared  in the light of information available to the Commission and 
on the basis of the foreseeable trend  for  1993 of supplies of and 
requirements  for young male bovine animals  intended  for fattening  in the 
community.  The particular circumstances  in the non-member countries can 
also be taken into account, while ensuring that the number of head to be 
imported in 1993 will be limited to the traditional level of 425 000 head. 
To that end, the Commission, acting pursuant to Council Regulation  (EEC) No 
1157/92 of 28 April  1992, introduced management measures concerning  imports 
of young bovine animals weighing  80 kilograms or less which replaced the 
safeguard clause  in 1992.  It will continue to apply appropriate management 
measures  if forecasts suggest that imports  into the community could exceed 
425 000 head and that such imports of beef could threaten  seriously  to 
disturb the Community market. 

1. 

Assessment of Community  supplies for  1993 

In view of the number of breeding  females  (cows and heifers) 
anticipated  for 1993  (about 36 500 000), some 29 200 000 births of 
calves are expected during that year.  Production over the year of 
male calves would therefore be about  14 600 000 head in 1993. 

2. 

Estimated Community requirements  for 1993 

2.1 

on the basis of data collected  from the Member States, the number of 
slaughterings of male calves envisaged  for  1993 should be about 
4  000 000 head. 

2.2 

The number of male animals intended  for slaughter, steers, fattened 
young bulls or bulls for breeding  should be about  10 500 000 head. 

2.3 

In the light of information provided by the Member States and of the 
above, it is expected that in 1993 the requirements  of Community 
livestock  farmers as regards young male bovine animals  for fattening 
will be  10 500 000 head. 

2.4 

From the considerations  set out in 2.1 and 2.3  it follows that the 
Community's overall requirements  in male calves will be  14 500 000 
head in 1993. 

These requirements will be wholly  satisfied by Community  supplies of these 
animals which, as demonstrated  in point  1, amount to about  14 600 000 head. 

CONCLUSION 

In the light of the above estimates, a Community  surplus may be expected in 
1993.  Furthermore, the Council has approved the introduction of a premium 
for the withdrawal from production of young male calves of dairy breeds 
with a view to reducing the number of young calves available. 

However, in order to maintain harmonious trade relations with the non-
member countries concerned, as in 1992 the number of young bovine animals 
which may be imported under the estimated  supply balance for 1993 should be 
fixed at the same level i.e.  198 000 head, the overall  level of traditional 
imports which the Commission contemplates taking  into account in 1993.

MEMORANDUM 

CONCERNING THE ESTIMATED  SUPPLY BALANCE 
FOR FROZEN MEAT FOR PROCESSING 

In accordance with undertakings entered into in the framework of the 
multilateral trade negotiations, the Commission proposed consultations with 
Australia, New Zealand, Argentina, Uruguay, Hungary, Poland and Romania 
concerning the estimated  supply balance for  1993 as regards frozen beef for 
processing. 

REPLIES FROM THE COUNTRIES CONCERNED: 

ARGENTINA 

The Argentine authorities  informed the Commission about the situation 
regarding meat production  in Argentina.  They  stressed the fact that during 
1992 beef production has increased but this has been accompanied by a rise 
in domestic consumption and therefore  in prices. 

At present 75% of Argentine production  is intended  for the domestic market 
and the rest is exported to the international market, where the situation 
is not very favourable. 

At present, Argentina has an annual inflation rate of only  20%, largely due 
to the fixed exchange rate with the dollar. 

The Argentine delegation  said that it is willing to accept a supply balance 
of zero with the proposed compensation  (11 430 tonnes Hilton beef) but 
wanted an increase  in their share, which has remained unchanged  for two 
years. 

NEW ZEALAND 

The New Zealand authorities  said that beef production  is rising  in New 
Zealand.  Although they reiterated their well-known position concerning  the 
overall quantities  in the supply balance, they said they could  in principle 
agree to the commission proposal provided their quota remained  at the same 
level as in 1992. 

They also asked the Commission about the planned timetable for the Council 
decision and about publicity campaigns to increase meat consumption  in the 
Community. 

AUSTRALIA 

The Australian authorities  said they were  in favour of redistributing  the 
remaining quantity  (shortfall) of Hilton beef before the end of 1992. 

They also emphasized the fall in the international markets, particularly  in 
the United states and Japan. 

URUGUAY 

The Uruguayan authorities requested the Commission to ensure that the 
decision on 

<b 

the supply balance was taken as soon as possible.  They noted that since 
1985 exports of Uruguayan meat to the Community have fallen constantly. 

Uruguay has 30 million  sheep and  10 million cattle.  It can export  150 000 
tonnes of meat  in total, including  4 000 tonnes of Hilton beef. 

The Uruguayan  authorities also drew attention to the clause in the GATT 
providing  for Uruguay to make use of quantities unused by other countries. 

HUNGARY, POLAND AND ROMANIA 

These three countries did not express any desire to export meat for 
processing to the Community  since their traditional markets  focus on 
exports of calves for fattening.

Proposal for an estimate concerning beef and veal intended for 
the processing  industry  for the period  1 January to 31 December  1993 

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic  Community, 

Having regard to Council Regulation  (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June  1968 on the 
common organization  of the market in beef and veal,1  as last amended by 
Regulation  (EEC) No 2066/92,2  and in particular Article  14(2) thereof, 

Having regard to the proposal  from the Commission, 

HAS ADOPTED THIS ESTIMATE 

Introduction 

Article  14(2) of Regulation  (EEC) No 805/68 provides that each year before 
1 December, the Council, acting by a qualified majority on a proposal  from 
the Commission, must draw up an estimate of meat which may be imported 
under the arrangements  laid down in that Article.  This estimate must take 
account both of the forecast Community  supplies of meat of a quality and 
type of cut suitable for industrial use and of industrial need.  The 
estimate is to mention  separately the quantities: 

(a)  intended  for the manufacture of preserves which do not contain 

characteristic  components other than beef and jelly; 

(b)  intended  for the processing  industry  for the manufacture of products 

other than the preserves referred to in (a). 

The annual presentation of the draft estimate  is preceded by consultations 
between the Commission and certain non-member countries.  The purpose of 
these meetings  is to review the overall situation of the beef market  in the 
Community and the non-member countries as well as current forecasts of 
production and consumption, so that a joint analysis can be made of the 
factors which could contribute towards drawing up estimates of Community 
requirements  for frozen beef for processing  and so that  information 
concerning the potential export market can be exchanged. 

Consultations  have been undertaken by the Commission with  representatives 
of the following countries: Argentina, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, 
Hungary, Poland and Romania.

CHAPTER I 

supplies of meat for processing 

According to information supplied to the Commission by the Member States, 
Community  supplies of home-produced  fresh meat for processing  for  1993 can 
be estimated  at 1 315 000 tonnes of bone-in meat. 

At the end of  1992 the Community will hold a large public  stock of meat as 
a result of intervention buying.  The quantity of this meat suitable for 
processing can be estimated at 512 000 tonnes of bone-in meat. 

At the end of  1992 no meat will be held in cold stores as a result of the 
granting of private storage aid. 

With effect from  1 January  1993 the Community  intends to open a tariff 
quota for 53 000 tonnes of boned frozen meat, which corresponds to 68 900 
tonnes bone-in meat. 

Past experience  indicates that, under this quota, 13 000 tonnes of frozen 
bone-in meat will be imported for processing  in 1993. 

In 1993 the quantity of meat originating  in Botswana, Kenya, Madagascar, 
Zimbabwe, Swaziland and Namibia to be imported  into the Community which 
satisfies the requirements  for processing may be estimated  at 8 700 tonnes 
of bone-in meat. 

For  1993 the total available  supplies  intended  for processing will thus be 
as follows: 

(tonnes) 

-  fresh meat: 
-  frozen meat bought into intervention 
-  frozen meat stored under the system of 

1 315 000 

private storage aid: 

0 

-  frozen meat imported under GATT quota: 
-  frozen meat imported under ACP 

Convention arrangements: 

8 700 

512 000 

13 000 

Total 

1 848 000 

CHAPTER II 

Industrial demand  for meat for processing 

According to information  supplied to the Commission by the Member states in 
August  1991, Community demand  for meat for processing  in 1993 can be 
estimated at  1 438 000 tonnes of meat on the bone. 

This figure includes the quantity required  for the preparation of preserved 
foods as referred to in Article  14(1)(a) of Regulation  (EEC) No  805/68. 
This latter quantity  is estimated  at 198 000 tonnes. 

A*l 

Conclusion 

It emerges from the foregoing that Community  availabilities of meat for 
processing will exceed  industrial requirements  in 1993.  The estimate of 
the quantity of beef and veal intended for the processing  industry and 
which may be imported  in 1993 under the arrangements provided  for in 
Article  14 of Regulation  (EEC) No 805/86  is therefore  fixed at zero tonnes
