Proposal  for a 

COUNCIL REGULATION  ( EC) 

relating to the continued  import of New Zealand  butter

EXPLANATORY  MEMORANDUM 

1.  Council  Regulation  (EEC) n*  3841/92 relating  to the continued  import of 
New  Zealand  butter  into the United Kingdom on special  terms was  adopted 
on |7  December  1992.  It provided  for  the continuation  for  1993 of  New 
Zealand  butter  imports upto a maximum  quantity of  51.830 tonnes. 

The Regulation  provides  that  before  1 October  1993, the Council, acting 
unanimously on a proposal  from  the Commission accompanied by  a report, 
must  take a decision on  the maintenance of  the exceptional  arrangements 
from  1 January 1994. 

The above mentioned  report  is herewith  submitted  to the Council.

4. 

In  light of  this report  and of  the market  situation, the Commission 
proposes  that  the current  arrangements should continue  for a  further  year 
while awaiting  the outcome of  the Uruguay  Round of Multilateral  Trade 
Negot iat ions. 

Since  the regime  foreseen by Article 5  (2) of Protocol  18  is directly 
linked  to measures covered  by  the Common Commercial  and  Agricultural 
Policy,  it must  be established at community  level. 

The Council  (Agriculture) should  adopt  this proposal  at  its December  1993 
meeting  at  the  latest by which  time the negotiations with  New  Zealand on 
the extension until  December  1994 of  the adaptations  to the sheep and 
goatmeat  voluntary  restraint  agreement, which expires on  31  December 
1993, should  also be concluded.

I.  Introduction 

1.  Protocol  n' 18 attached  to the Treaty, concerning  the accession of  the 
Kingdom of  Denmark,  Ireland and  the United Kingdom of Great  Britain and 
Northern  Ireland  to the European  Economic Community  signed on 22 January 
1972, on  the  import  of New Zealand  butter  and cheese  into the United 
Kingdom  authorized  the United Kingdom, as a transitional  measure, to 
import  from New Zealand  certain quantities of butter  and cheese.  The 
Protocol  provided  for  the progressive  reduction of quantities. Access for 
cheese under  special  conditions was  terminated on 31 December  1977 while 
access for butter which must  be approved unanimously by  the Council  on 
each occasion  has been maintained  upto 31 December  1992. 

The annual  quantities  in tonnes fixed  in Protocol  n'  18 were:

The  import  of  these quantities was conditional  on  the respect  at  the CI F 
stage of a minimum  import  price and benefited  from a reduced  levy, both 
of which were  fixed by  the Council.  The eligible butter  was defined as 
salted  butter  and was confined  to the UK market. 

A GATT  quota  for 9 500 tonnes of New Zealand  Cheddar  cheese eligible for 
import  into the Community  was fixed  from  1980, following  the Tokyo Round 
of Multilateral  Trade Negotiations concluded  in 1979. 

2.  The European Council meeting  in Dublin on  10 March  1975  laid down 

guidelines  for  the maintenance of  the arrangements  for butter  after  1977 
and  suggested  approximate quantities  for  the period upto  1980.  That 
summit  also encouraged  closer  cooperation between  the Community  and New 
Zealand with  the objective of promoting  in their mutual  interest  an 
orderly operation of world markets.  The  latter was successfully  achieved 
on  the establishment  in 1980 of  the  International  Dairy  Arrangement 
under  the auspices of  the GATT. 

In accordance with Article  5 of Protocol  n' 18 and with  individual 
Articles of successive Council  Regulations maintaining  these exceptional 
arrangements, the Commission  has carried out  a number  of reviews, 
reported  to the Council  and accompanied  the reports with  appropriate 
proposals. 

3.  The regime established  in 1973 was extended  for  three years by Council 

Regulation  (EEC) n*  1655/76 of 29 June 1976 (and again up  to the end of 
1983 by Council  Regulation  (EEC) n* 858/81 of  1 April  1981).  However, 
the  latter  Regulation  only established quantities  for  1981  and  1982; the 
Council  fixed  the 1983 quantity  in Regulation  (EEC) n* 642/83 of  15 March 
1983 at 87.000 tonnes, 2.000  tonnes  less than  that  proposed  by  the 
Commission.  The access  for  1984 and  following  two years was agreed by 
the Council  on  14 July 1984. 

Page 6 

For  the years  1987 and  1988 the Commission  submitted  its proposals in 
July  1986 but  final  agreement  on  the quantities was not  reached  in the 
Council  until  July  1987 at 76.500 tonnes for  1987 and 74.500 tonnes for 
1988. 

The volumes  for  1989 to 1992 were  fixed  in Council  Regulation  (EEC) n* 
2967/89 of 25 September  1989.  To avoid any  interruption  in access during 
the first  three quarters of  1989 the Council  authorized  imports on a 
month  by month basis upto  the end of September  1989. 

4. The most  recent  report  on  these arrangements was presented  in COM  (92) 
479 Final  of  24 November  1992 together with a Commission  proposal  on 
quantities for  1993.  The Council  approved  the proposal  following a 
reduction of  3 170 tonnes  in the volume proposed.  This reduction was 
the same as that  agreed  for 1992:

(1)  In the early  years  the  import  allowance was not  fully utilized partly 

due to a shortage of supply  and partly because New Zealand wanted  to 
maintain outlets other  than  the United  Kingdom.

5.  The obligation  to respect  a minimum  import  price coupled with a reduced 

levy was abolished  from  1 April  1981  in favour of a simpler  system based 
on a  import  levy equal  to 25% of  the  intervention price.  From  1989 
onwards  the  levy was  reduced  to 15% of  the  intervention price.  The  import 
levy charged on  imports of New Zealand  butter  on special  terms was fixed 
at  12% of  the  intervention  price  for 1993. 

6.  Council  Regulation  (EEC) n*  3841/92 obliges the Commission  to submit a 

report  and a proposal  to the Council  with a view  to taking  a decision on 
the maintenance of  the exceptional  arrangements  from  1 January  1994.  The 
Council  (Agriculture)  is requested  to take  its Decision, by unanimity, at 
the  latest, during  its December  1993 meeting. 

11.  Policy developments since the  last  report  in 1992 

7. 

In June  1992 the Council  approved  the maintenance of  the additional  levy 
in the milk and milk products sector  for a further  seven consecutive  12 
month  periods beginning on  1 April  1993.  Agreement  on  the codified  and 
simplified  application rules was reached with  the approval  of Council 
Regulation  (EEC) n*  3950/92 of 28 December  1992(1>.  The detailed  rules 
of application were published  in Commission  Regulation  (EEC) 
n* 536/93(2) 9 March  1993.  Following  the Commission's  report  to the 
Council  on  the market  situât ion*3) the Council  adopted  the deliveries 
and direct  sales quotas  for each Member  State which were published  in 
Council  Regulation  (EEC) n' 1560/93 of  14 June  1993<4).  The  report  on 
the market  situation  concluded  that  the situation  regarding milk  fat gave 
rise  to greater  concern  than  that  for milk protein  and  that  an attempt  to 
remedy  the  imbalance on  the market  for milkfat  should  be given  priority 
over  applying  the 1% reduction  to the guaranteed  quantities decided  in 
principle  for  the  1993/94 period.  Following  its examination of  the 
market  situation,  the Council  decided  to defer  any  further  quota 
reductions and  to bring  forward  part of  the reduction  in the 
intervention  price already  decided  for  1994/95. The effect  of  the 
reduction  in the  intervention  price of butter  combined  with  the  influence 
of  the monetary  reduction coefficient  was a 4.3% reduction  in the  butter 
intervention  price  from  1 July  1993 compared  with  the prices  valid before 
that  date. 

At  the same  time as the quotas  for  1993/94 were established, provision 
was made  for  a programme  for  the restructuring of milk  production  in 
Member  States. A sum of 40 M ECU was allocated  for  this purpose. 

8. 

In New  Zealand,  the Government  has disengaged  itself  almost  entirely  from 
control  and  financial  support  of  the primary  sector  as part  of  a general 
change  in policy direction  beginning  in 1984.  The New Zealand  Government 
does not  intervene  in any way  to fix or  influence producer  prices. 

In March  1988, the Government  announced  plans  for deregulation of  the 
town milk  industry.  The Milk Act  1988 provided  for a 5 year  transition 
period  to total  deregulation.  During  the transition period,  provision 
was made  to protect  the home delivery service and  limit  price  competition 
at  the retail  level.  The Act  expired on 31 March  1993, paving  the way 
for  total  deregulation of  the town milk sector.

The New Zealand  Dairy Board  (NZDB) established  by  the Dairy Board Act 
1961,  is the single organization  responsible  for marketing dairy  produce 
manufactured  for export.  The Dairy Board Amendment  Act  1992  is chiefly 
notable  for  the fact  that  the principle of  farmer ownership of  the Board, 
through  the cooperative  dairy  companies  is now  firmly enshrined  in law. 
The Board  purchases dairy  products  from dairy  companies  at  standard 
prices  reflecting  actual  or  anticipated  prices on world markets. 
Farmgate prices paid by dairy  companies  can vary depending on their 
financial  status and  relative efficiencies.  At  times the Board may 
retain some returns from sales for  reserves and at others pay out  from 
reserves.  These are completely  independent  decisions made by  the Board. 

III. Developments  in the UK market 

9. 

Since  the  introduction of  the supplementary  levy system, milk deliveries 
in the UK fell  by almost  2.8 million  tonnes and butter  production  fell by 
about  144 thousand  tonnes.  Total  butter  consumption  in the same period 
fell  by about  89  thousand. 

In 1992 milk deliveries  in the UK declined by 0.7% or about  100 000 
tonnes, butter  production by  12.5% or by about  14 000 tonnes and butter 
consumption  declined  by 2% or about  5 000 tonnes.  Total  butter  imports 
increased  in 1992 by 20% to about  119 thousand  tonnes while  total  butter 
exports  increased  by  35% to about  49 thousand  tonnes.  Butter  imports 
from  3rd countries mainly  from New Zealand  decreased  by 21% to about  46 
thousand  tonnes and exports  to 3rd countries  increased  by 50% to about 
5 400 tonnes.  Butter  imports  from other  Member  States  in 1992 were 50% 
higher  than  in 1991, at about  73 500. 

While butter  exports  to other Member  States were 33% higher  at about 
43 200 tonnes, the UK  trading  pattern  in 1992 particularly  from  September 
onwards was mainly  influenced  by monetary events particularly  the 
imminent  disappearance of  the monetary  compensatory  system  from  1 January 
1993. 

No butter  was bought  into  intervention  in 1992 and  the  intervention 
stocks of butter  in the United Kingdom  in December  1992 amounted  to 9 940 
tonnes.  There were no publicly  financed  private stocks of butter  in the 
UK at  that  date. 

The butter  price  in Great  Britain  in 1992 peaked  at 93.8% of  the 
intervention price  in August  and fell  to about  89%  in December. 

10.  In the first  seven months of  1993, milk deliveries  in the UK were 0.7% 

less than during  the corresponding  months of  1992.  The production of 
butter, skimmed  milk  powder  and cheese were about  10%, 19% and  3% higher 
respectively  in 1993 than during  the corresponding period of  1992.  The 
production of whole milk powder was  16% lower  in 1993. 

Milk deliveries during  the first  4 months of  the 1993/94 quota  year were 
5.6% below  the estimated  quota  for  that  period. 

Butter  imports  into the UK  from New Zealand  during  the 1st  seven months 
of  1993 amounted  to almost  31 000 tonnes, almost  60% of  the 1993 quota. 

Butter  exports  from  the UK to third countries during  the first  6 months 
of  1993 at  2 300 tonnes were 28% below  the corresponding  level  in 1992. 

HPage  9 

In 1993, 4 732  tonnes of  butter  were purchased  by  the UK  intervention 
agency  upto  the end of  September  1993, mainly  in January, ApriI,  May  and 
June.  About  4 800  tonnes of  butter  were  sold  from  intervention  during 
the  first  8 months of  1993 mainly  for  use  in the pastry  and  ice  cream 
manufacturing  sectors. 

The  butter  price  in Great  Britain  in 1993 was about  88% of  the 
intervention price of  292.78 ECU/100kg upto  1 July, prices were  around 
91% of  the  intervention  price of  280.33 ECU/100kg  in September  1993. 

With  milk  deliveries  below  quota  in  1993/94 by  about  6%  following  the 
peak  production  months milk  supplies are  likely  to show  an  increase  on 
the  previous  year's  levels  for  the 
consequent  increases  in butter  and  skimmed  milk  powder  production. 

remainder  of  the year  with 

11.  Following  the substantial  changes which  have  taken place  in the  sterling 

exchange  rate, wholesale  prices of  butter  on  the UK market  have  changed 
significantly  in 1992 and  in 1993.  The price of  UK produced  bulk  butter 
increased  from  about  UK £2100/tonne  in September  1992  to about  UK 
£2450/tonne  in April  1993 before  falling  back  to about  UK £2250/tonne  in 
September  1993.  The  trend  in the wholesale  prices of  small  packs of 
butter  (250gr) fol lowed  that  for  bulk  butter  upto April  1993 and  then 
plateaued  at  the higher  level.  In summary,  the wholesale  price  of  bulk 
butter  increased  by  about  £180/tonne  in the  12 months  to August  1993 
while  the wholesale  price of  butter  in small  packs  (250gr)  increased  by 
about  £260/tonne.  However,  the wholesale  price  for  home  produced  butter 
in small  packs was  reduced  in September  1993 by  UK  £90/tonne. 

UK  produced  butter  in small  packs was  selling at  the wholesale  stage at 
between  £90 and  £570/tonne more  than New  Zealand  butter  in a similar 
presentation  upto  September  1993 when  the price  of  home  produced  produce 
was  reduced  to match  the New  Zealand  price  at  the  lower  end of  the  range. 

Price  trends  for  butter  in small  packs  (250gr) at  the  retail  level  varied 
in direction  and  in magnitude  in the period August  1992  to August  1993. 
The  retail  price of  all  butters  increased  by  about  7%,  for  English  butter 
it decreased  by  about  4% and  for  New  Zealand  butter  it  increased  by  9%. 
In August  1992, New  Zealand  butter  was 7% cheaper  than  English  butter  and 
in August  1993, New  Zealand  butter  was 6%  dearer  than  English  butter. 
The  increase  in the  retail  price of  non UK supplies  is explained  in part 
by  the eltmination of  monetary  compensatory  amounts.  The  decrease  in the 
retail  price of  English butter  may  represent  an effort  to regain  market 
share.  It  is estimated  that  UK produced  butter  occupies  a  17% share  in 
total  consumer  purchases of  the packet  butter  market  and  New  Zealand 
butter  has a 28% share of  that  market.  Blended  butter  occupies  a 28% 
share of  the packet  butter  market  also;  this product  is made  from  butter 
of  various origins.

IV.  Developments  In New Zealand 

12.  As New Zealand producers of milk do not benefit  from government  support, 

the  level of production  fluctuates  in response to changes  in world prices 
for dairy products, the returns from alternative agricultural  enterprises 
and  the climate.  According  to the New Zealand Ministry of  Agriculture 
and Fisheries  in  its Situation and Outlook  for New Zealand Agriculture  in 
1993, the number of dairy cows  in the herd at the beginning of  the 
1993/94 milk year will  be about 0.3% more than at  the beginning of  the 
1992/93 milk year when  they were 3.1% up on the previous year. 

Milkfat processed  in 1993/94  is expected  to  increase.  The New Zealand 
Dairy Board  is suggesting  a further  3%  increase  in total  cows milk and a 
2  to 5%  increase  in milk solids available for processing.  The number of 
dairy  herds supplying  dairies  increased  in New Zealand  from  the 1990/91 
milk  season  to the 1992/93 season by about 6% and  the average herd size 
in 1992/93 was about  180 cows. 

The trends  indicated  in the  last report  in November  1992 seem  to be 
continuing namely out of sheepmeat production  into milk production and 
important  increases  in the number of specialized  dairy  farms of  100 
hectares or more.  In 1992/93 there were 14 230 dairy  farms supplying 
dairies  in New Zealand. 

The final  payout  price for  the 1992/93 milk year was fixed at 5.65  NZ$/kg 
of milkfat, 8.6% more than the final  price for  1991/92 of 5.25 NZ$/kg. 
Dairies  tend to supplement  this price depending on  their  level of 
efficiency  and other  business activities.  In 1992 the average  farmgate 
price was 5.84 NZ$/kg of milkfat and  in 1992/93  it was about  6.23  NZ$/kg. 
The New Zealand  Department  of Agriculture  forecasts a farmgate price for 
1993/94 of 6.80  NZ$/kg milkfat. 

A basic price of 5.50 NZ$ per kg of milkfat was announced  in May  for  the 
1993/94 mi Ik year. 

13.  Total  milk production  in New Zealand  in the 1992/93 milk  year  amounted  to 
8.2 M  tonnes of which about  480 thousand  tonnes were used  for  liquid 
consumption.  The fat content of New Zealand milk  is about  4.7%. 

Whole milk powder  and cheese production  in New Zealand are continuing to 
show strong  increases.  In 1992/93 WMP product ion was almost  13% above 
the 1991/92  level  and  the  increase  in cheese production was over 4%. 
Production of butter  (including butteroil  and prepared  fat mixes 
expressed  as butter  equivalent)  in 1992/93 was about  4%  less than  in the 
previous year.  The corresponding  percentages  for SMP was - 7% while 
casein production was unchanged.  In 1993/94 WMP and cheese production 
are expected  to  increase by upto 13% in both cases. 

14.  Exports of dairy products account  for  12 to 14% of New Zealand's total 

exports.  In the year  ended  June 1992 the percentage was  13.3%; the 
corresponding  figure  for  1990 and  1991 were 13.6 and  12.8% respectively. 

Butter  exports  in the years ended  June 1989 to June  1992 accounted  for 
32.5%, 34.4%, 26.9% and 29.5% respectively of  the total  value of dairy 
products exported. 

Page 11 

During  the calendar  year  1991, New Zealand butter exports to the UK 
accounted  for 32% of New Zealand's total  butter  exports  in volume  terms 
and  for 49% in value terms.  The value of butter exports to the UK 
accounted  for  13% of  the value of all dairy exports  from New Zealand. 
The value of butter  exported  to the UK accounted  for about  1.9% of New 
Zealand's  total exports of all products. 

In 1992, New Zealand butter  exports to the UK accounted  for 44% of tota 
butter  exports  in volume terms and  for 61% in value terms.  Butter 
exports to the UK accounted  for almost  13% of  the value of all dairy 
product  exports and for 1.7% of  the value of all New Zealand's exports.

Developments  in the Community 

15.  The number of holdings  in the Community with dairy cows  is declining at 

the rate of about 7% per year or by almost  100.000 per  year.  The result 
of  the December  1991 survey  is available  for  11 Member States.  The 
number of dairy cow holdings  in the Community  (excluding  the former 
German Democratic Republic for which data  is not available) in December 
1991,  is estimated  at  1198 thousand  holdings.  The decrease  in the number 
of holdings  in the 1987 to 1989 period was about 6% per year.  In the 1989 
to 1991  period  the decrease has risen  to 7% per  year.  A continuation of 
this trend would bring  the number of  holdings with dairy cows  in the 
Community  to about  1.04 million  in December  1993. The average dairy herd 
size  in the EC (excluding  the former  East Germany)  in December  1991 was 
18 cows. 

Butter  production  in the Community  in 1992 was 850.000 tonnes below the 
peak  production  level of over  2.5 million tonnes recorded  in 1986.  Had 
the considerable  reform adopted by  the Council  in December  1986 not been 
implemented, butter  production during  the following 6 years, 1987 to 
1992, would  have amounted  to 15.2 million tonnes  instead of  the 11.7 
million  tonnes actually produced, a decrease of about  580 000 tonnes per 
year. 

In 1992, Community milk deliveries were  1.64 million tonnes  lower  than in 
1991.  The consequence of  this on  the production of dairy products was a 
decrease  in butter  production of  161  thousand  tonnes, a decrease of 
337 thousand  tonnes  in SMP production, an  increase of  166 thousand  tonnes 
in cheese production, a decrease  in WMP production of almost  50 thousand 
tonnes, an  increase  in condensed/evaporated  milk  production of over  45 
thousand  tonnes and an  increase  in casein production of about  25 thousand 
tonnes.  The volume of milk used  in the manufacture of  fresh products 
(including  liquid milk)  is increasing at  the rate of about  1% per year. 

16.  Despite  the fall  in deliveries, milk prices paid  to producers  in 1992, 

which  in a number of  important milk producing Member  States showed an 
increase on  the 1991  levels, were below the peaks reached  in 1988/89.

Intervention  purchases of butter  in 1992 amounted  to 48 350 tonnes and 
there were no purchases of SMP  into  intervention.  The  table below

Community  exports  of  dairy  products  in  1992  in  milk  equivalent  terms 
(excluding  casein  and  fresh  products)  amounted  to  almost  14  million 
tonnes or  8% more  than  in 1991  mainly  due  to  improved  exports of  SMP and 
condensed milk.  However, about  100 000 tonnes of  the 390 thousand  tonnes 
of  SMP was accounted  for by  food aid and donations to Eastern  Europe. 

17.  In  1993, milk  deliveries  in  the  EC  for  the  first  7  months  are  slightly 
(0.1%)  below  the  corresponding  deliveries  in  1992,  butter  and  cheese 
production  is at  the same  level, SMP production  is up by about  8% and WMP 
production  is  down  by  about  4%.  However,  in  the  April  to  July  1993 
period, despite a decrease  in deliveries compared  with  the same period  in 
1992 butter  production  is showing  an  increase of about  2.5%. 

The  average  EC  butter  price  in  ECU  terms  has  been  relatively  stable 
through  1993.  It  has  fallen  from  about  264  ECU/100kg,  90%  of  the 
intervention  price valid upto 30 June  1993, to about  262 ECU/100kg, 93.7% 
of  the  intervention  price  valid  from  1 July  1993.  The  SMP  price  on  the 
internal  market  has  fallen  from  about  115% of  the  intervention  price  in 
January  1993 to about  97% of  the  intervention price  in September  1993. 

Small  volumes of  butter  were bought  into  intervention  in 1993; about  500 
tonnes/week  in  September.  In  August,  about  11 000  tonnes  of  SMP  were 
bought  into  intervention. 

rage  « J 

Exports  of  dairy  products  from  the  Community  in  1993  show  positive  trends 
for  fresh  products  (+8%),  condensed  milk  (+6%),  WMP  (+11%),  butteroil 
(+22%)  and  cheese  (+15%),  when  compared  with  the  corresponding  data  for 
1992.  While  total  exports  of  butter  and  SMP  are  well  down  on  1993  when 
food  aid  donations/transactions  for  1992  are  included,  commercial  exports 
show  a  positive  trend  of  9%  in  the  case  of  SMP  and  30%  in  the  case  of 
butter. 

18.  Butter  consumption  in  the  Community  in  1992  declined  only  slightly  (0.5%) 
and  a  decrease  of  more  than  2.5%  is  forecast  for  1993.  However,  the 
quantities  of  butter  used  in  the  pastry  and  ice  cream  sectors  in 
particular,  may  help  to  reduce  the  forecast  decrease.  Almost  40  000 
tonnes  more  butter  (+14%)  have  been  allocated  to  these  industries  in  the 
January  to  September  1993  period  than  in  the  corresponding  period  in 
1992. 

The  reductions  in  the  aid  levels  paid  on  SMP  used  in  animal  feed  and 
manufacture  of  casein  implemented  in  late  1992  and  early  1993  have  led  to 
reductions  in  the  volumes  of  SMP  and  liquid  skim  used  in  these  two 
outlets.  In  the  first  7 months  of  1993  aid  was  requested  on  21%  less  SMP 
and  on  34%  less  skimmed  milk  than  in  the  corresponding  period  in  1992. 

19.  In  conclusion,  the  Community's  dairy  products  market  is  in  balance  but 
worrying  signs  are  beginning  to emerge.  Deliveries  in  the  Community  are, 
for  the  first  4  months  of  the  quota  year,  7%  below  quota  (4%  if  the 
former  German  Democratic  Republic  is  excluded).  Butter  production  is 
increasing  and  uptake  of  skimmed  milk  with  subsidies  is  declining. 
Purchases  of  SMP  into  intervention  were  recorded  in August  and  the  price 
of  SMP  declined  sharply  in  1993.  Producers  can  be  expected  to  reach 
their  quotas  with  consequences  for  butter  and  SMP  production  increases. 

VI.  World  Market  Situation 

20.  The  main  influences  on  the  world  market  are  the  supply  and  demand 
situation  in  Central  and  Eastern  countries  and  in  the  Former  Soviet 
Union,  the  supply  and  export  subsidy  situation  in  the  USA,  the  value  of 
the  US$,  the  supply  situation  in  Australia  and  New  Zealand,  the  supply 
and  subsidy  situation  in  the  EC  and  the  level  of  oil  prices  and  their 
influence  on  the  demand  for  dairy  products  in  oil  supplying  countries. 
While  the  world  market  is  influenced  by  the  GATT-lnternationaI  Dairy 
Arrangement,  the  absence  of  dairy  trading  nations  like  Austria,  Canada 
and  the  United  States  dilute  its  influence.  World  market  prices  for 
butter  and  butteroil  have  been  at  or  close  to  the  GATT  minimum  of  1350 
and  1625  US$/t,  respectively  for  almost  one  year.  SMP  and  WMP  prices 
which  were  very  strong  in  1992  and  upto  August  1993  have  fallen  sharply 
since  August.  The  prices  are  still  well  above  the  GATT  minima  however. 
Cheese  prices  have  remained  firm. 

The  Food  and  Agricultural  Organization  of  the  United  Nations  forecast  a 
decline  of  1.1%  in  total  world  milk  production  in  1993  to  508  million 
tonnes.  The  trend  in  developing  countries  remains  positive  with  a  2.5% 
increase  forecast  for  1993.  It  remains  negative  for  developed  countries 
with  a  - 2 . 7% decrease  forecast  for  1993. 

Page 14 

The OECD  is forecasting  a slight  increase  in milk production  in  its group 
of  countries  for  1993 (+0.4%) with  increases forecast  for  the US  (+1.6%), 
Australia  (+7.5%), New Zealand  (+2%) and Japan  (+2.8%). 

The  GATT  secretariat  estimates  that  world  milk  production  in  1992 
amounted  to 513 million  tonnes  (incl. sheep, goat  and  buffalo milk) 2.5% 
below  the  1991  level.  Cows  milk  production  declined  by  about  3%  to 450 
million  tonnes.  Production  continued  to  decline  sharply  in Central  and 
Eastern Europe as well  as  in the Baltic Republics and other  former  Soviet 
Union  republics.  Production  declined  in the EC,  in Nordic  countries and 
in  Canada.  In  contrast  milk  production  in  New  Zealand  reached  record 
levels.  Production  also  rose  in  Australia  and  in  the  United  States. 
Output  rose  in general  in developing  countries  particularly  in  India and 
China and  in some Latin American countries. 

In  1993,  world  milk  production  is  expected  by  the  GATT  Secretariat  to 
fall  by  a  further  1  to  2%  but  increased  supplemental  feeding  should 
contribute  to  production  exceeding  1992  levels  in  Australia  and  New 
Zealand.  Further  increases are expected  in the US. 

The Secretariat  reports a 2.5% decline  in butter  and butteroil  production 
•  in  1992  to 7.03  million  tonnes  and  forecasts  a  further  decline  by  about 

2%  in 1992 to about  6.89 million tonnes. 

World  production  of  SMP  decreased  by  8%  in  1992  to  3.55  million  tonnes 
and  a  further  5%  reduction  is  forecast  for  1993.  Whole  milk  powder 
production  in 1992 was  2.27 million  tonnes  -  the  same  level  as  in 1991. 
World  cheese  production  in  1992  (including  curd)  increased  by  5.5%  to 
nearly  15 million  tonnes and a further  1%  increase  is expected  in 1993. 

World  butter  consumption  declined by 2%  in 1991, the decline continued  in 
1992 and a similar  trend  is expected  for 1993. 

21.  The  lack  of  buying  power  in  the  Former  Soviet  Union  and  consequently 
demand  for  butter  led the  International  Dairy Arrangement  participants to 
adopt  a derogation  from  the minimum  price  for  butter  and  butteroil  on 22 
June  1992.  The  derogation  relates  to  a  maximum  quantity  of  butter  of 
50 000  tonnes  per  participant,  contracts  must  be  concluded  before  31 
December  1993 and  imports  into the Former  Soviet  Union must  take place by 
31 March  1994.  Only  Finland,  Poland  and  Hungary  reported  that  contracts 
had  been  concluded;  Finland  for  3 OOOt  at  a  price  of  1 090  US$/t  FOB, 
Hungary  for 506 tonnes and Poland  for 4 000 tonnes at  1017 US$/t  FOB. 

Despite  the  very  substantial  reductions  in  milk  deliveries  and  in  the 
production  of  dairy  products  in  Central  and  Eastern  Europe  and  in  the 
Former  Soviet  Union,  the  decline  in  consumption  and  the  need  for  hard 
currency  has  led  to  export  availabilities  in  these  countries  at 
compet it ive pr ices. 

Page lb 

In Poland,  for  example,  between  1988 and  1992, milk  deliveries  fell  from 
11.4  to  6.9  million  tonnes,  -39%.  SMP  production,  in  the  same  period 
fell  by only  5% to 150 000 tonnes but  reached over  170 000  tonnes  in the 
intervening  years.  Exports of  SMP  between  1988 and  1992 went  from  47 to 
91  thousand  tonnes.  Availability  of  domestic  products,  food  aid 
donations  and  weak  demand  in  the  Former  Soviet  Union  in  1993  have  made 
sales  of  Polish  and  other  country's  SMP  more  difficult  resulting  in a 
build  up of  stock  in those countries.  A consequent  downward  pressure on 
world  market  prices  resulted  as  countries  sought  outlets  for  their  milk 
powders. 

22.  In  the  United  States  the  latest  estimate  by  the  US  Department  of 
Agriculture  is that  SMP and WMP  production  in 1993 will  be 10.8 and 14.5% 
higher  than  in  1992.  The  production  of  SMP  in 1993  is estimated  at  430 
thousand  tonnes  and  domestic  consumption  is  forecast  to  drop  to  263 
thousand  tonnes, -22%  leaving  an exportable  balance of  167 000t.  The US 
stocks  of  butter  and  SMP  at  the  end  of  September  1993  were  125 000 and 
8  000 tonnes, respectively. 

Effective  from  7  July  1993  the  US  reduced  its  butter  support  price  by 
almost  15% and  increased  the  SMP  support  price  by  6.3%.  On  13 May  1992 
and on  17 January  1992, similar  adjustments were  introduced. 

Since  the quota  system was  introduced  in the EC, the US support  price for 
butter  has been  reduced  by 57% to 1 469 US$ or  1 075 green  ECU/t.  The EC 
buying  in price  has  been  reduced  by  21% to  2 523  ECU/t  during  the  same 
period.  The  US support  price  for  SMP  increased  by  13.6% during  the same 
period  to 2 280 US$/t  or  1 669 ECU/t.  The EC  intervention  price  for  SMP 
increased  by  2.7% to  1 702  ECU/t  during  the  same  period.  The  US  cheese 
support  price  (Cheddar  in  40  pound  blocks)  decreased  by  17%  to  2 469 
US$/t  or  1 807 ECU/t. 

The  support  price  of  manufacturing  milk  in  the  1984  to  1993  period  was 
reduced  by  20% to  22.27  US$/100kg  or  16.30  ECU/100kg  of  milk  with  3.67% 
butterfat.  The  target  price  for  all  milk  with  3.7%  fat  content  was 
reduced  in the Community  during  the same period by 5% to 26.06 ECU/l00kg. 

Since  the  support  price  changes  in  the  US,  butter  purchases  by  the 
Commodity  Credit  Corporation  have  practically  ceased  and  about  8 000 
tonnes  of  SMP  have  been  purchased  as  well  as  small  volumes  of  cheese. 
Since  29  July  1993  when  the  CCC  began  to  sell  back  butter  from 
intervention, about  14 000 tonnes have been sold. 

Producer  prices  for milk  in the US  fell  in July  and August  but  are still 
about  14% above  the support  price. 

Under  the  Dairy  Export  Incentive  Programme  (DIEP),  from  1  January  to 
31 August  1993  the  US  had  accepted  bids  to export  54 200  tonnes of  SMP, 
12 100 tonnes of WMP,  4 360 tonnes of  butter, 2 740  tonnes of  cheese and 
3 220 tonnes of cheese.  The subsidies paid  in August  1993 were: 

SMP 
WMP 
Butter 
Butteroil 
Cheese 

800 to  998 US$  or 
1055 to 1257 US$  or 
600 to  740 US$  or 
1132 to 1205 US$  or 
1200 to 1230 US$  or 

585 to 730 ECU green/t 
772 to 920 ECU green/t 
439 to 541  ECU green/t 
829 to 882 ECU green/t 
878 to 900 ECU green/t 

Page 16 

The  significance  of  the  recent  support  price  changes  in  the  US  is that 
the butter  support price  is now only  119 US$/tonne above the GATT minimum 
price.  Taking  the  level  of  subsidies  on  export  into  consideration,  US 
products  should  be  competitive  on  the  world  market.  The  US  aim  is  to 
export  205 thousand  tonnes of milk powders  in 1993, 48 thousand  tonnes of 
butter  and butteroil  and 6 thousand  tonnes of cheese. 

23.  Currency  developments  have an  impact on  the competitiveness of  suppliers 
to the world market  as they have on demand.  In the period August  1992 to 
August  1993, the YEN revalued by between  19 and 50% against  the NZ$, the 
Australian  $,  the  ECU  and  the  US$.  The  US$  weakened  against  the  New 
Zealand  $  but  revalued  by  about  7%  against  the  Australian  $.  The 
commercial  ECU  devalued  against  the  Australian,  New  Zealand  and  US 
dollar.  The  New  Zealand  $  revalued  by over  30% against  the UK  .  in the 
August  1992 to August  1993 period. 

VII. Conclusions 

24.  The world market  for butter  and butteroil  has been weak  for over one 

year.  Despite the substantial  reductions  in EC butter  production the 
weak  demand  in the Former Soviet Union coupled with  increased  supplies 
from Oceania,  increased commercial  exports and  food aid donations by the 
US and offers of butter  from Eastern Europe have all  contributed  to 
keeping  the butter and butteroil market  in a depressed state. 

25.  The world market  for milk powders  is showing some signs of weakness since 

late summer  1993. 

26.  New Zealand producers are managing  to maintain and even to expand 

production despite the absence of government  support  and  lower prices 
than are enjoyed by producers  in other  developed  countries,  including the 
Community.  Despite significant  diversification  in their  dairy  production 
and sales away  from the traditional  UK butter market, sales to that 
market still  provide an  important  part, both of  their  total outlets for 
dairy products and of  total  New Zealand exports. 

27.  The  longterm future for New Zealand exports will  be critically  dependent 

on the terms of  the final settlement of  the Uruguay Round.  This being so 
it does not seem appropriate to conclude a further multiannual  extension 
of  the Arrangement made under  Protocol  18 but  to extend  the existing 
arrangements  for a further  year whilst  awaiting  the outcome of  the GATT 
negotiations.

/.  The  United  Kingdom  is  authorized,  as  a  transi

tain  quantities  of  butter  and cheese,  on the  following 
terms. 

2.  The quantities referred to in paragraph  I shall be: 

(a)  in respect of butter, for the first five years: 

Article 3 

The Council, acting by a qualified  majority on a propo 
sal  from  the  Commission,  shall  adopt  the  measures 
necessary for implementing  Articles  I and  2. 

Article 4 

The  Community  shall  continue  its  efforts  to  promote 
the  conclusion  of  an  international  agreement  on  milk 
products so that, as soon  as possible,  conditions  on the 
world market may be improved. 

Article 5 

I.  The Council  shall,  during  1975.  review  the  situa 
tion  as regards  butter  in the light  of  prevailing  condi 
tions  and of supply  and demand  developments  in the 
major  producing  and  consuming  countries  of  the 
world, particularly  in the Community  and in  New Zea 
land.  During  that  review,  among  the considerations  to 
be taken  into account  shall be the following: 

(a)  progress  towards  an effective  world  agreement  on 
milk  products, to which  the Community  and other 
important  producing  and  consuming  countries 
would be parties: 

(b)  the extent  of  New Zealand's  progress  towards di 
versification  of  its economy  and  exports,  it  being 
understood  that  the Community  will  strive  to pur 
sue  a  commercial  policy  which  does  not  run 
counter to this progress. 

2.  Appropriate  measures  to  ensure  the  maintenance 
after  31 December  1977 of exceptional  arrangements in 
respect of imports of butter from  New Zealand,  includ 
ing  the  details  of  such  arrangements,  shall  be  deter 
mined by the Council, acting  unanimously  on a propo 
sal from the Commission, in the light  of that review 

3.  After  31  December  1977,  the  exceptional  arrange 
ments  laid  down  for imports  of  cheese  may no longer 
be retained. 

1973  165 811  metric tons 

1974  158 902  metric tons 

1975  151 994 metric tons 

1976  145 085 metric tons 

1977  138  176 metric tons 

(b)  in respect of cheese: 

1973  68 580 metric tons 

1974  60 960  metric tons 

1975  45 720  metric tons 

1976  30 480 metric tons 

1977  15 240 metric tons 

The Council,  acting by a qualified  majority on a propo 
sal  from  the  Commission,  may  make  adjustments 
between  those  quantities of butter and cheese,  provided 
that  the tonnage  expressed  as  milk  equivalent  corres 
ponding to the total  quantities  laid  down  for those two 
products for the year in question  remains unaltered. 

3.  The  quantities  of  butter  and  cheese  specified  in 
paragraph 2  shall  be  imported  into  the  United  King 
dom  at a  price  the observance  of which  must  be guar 
anteed  at the c.i.f.  stage  by  New Zealand.  That  price 
shall  be fixed at a level  which  enables  New Zealand to 
realize  a price  representing  the average  price  obtained 
by that country on the United  Kingdom  market  during 
1969,1970,1971  and 1972. 

4.  The product;  imported  into  the  United  Kingdom 
in  accordance  with  the provisions  of this  Protocol may 
not  become  the subject  of intra-Community  trade or of 
re-exportation to third countries.

ANNEX  II 

TEXT OF  THE  STATEMENT  ON  NEW  ZEALAND  DAIRY  IMPORTS  ISSUED  FOLLOWING 
THE  EUROPEAN  COUNCIL  MEETING  IN DUBLIN  10 MARCH  1975 

The  Heads  of  Government  meeting  in  Council  at  Dublin  the  10th  of  March, 
underlines  the  importance  which  they  attach  to  Protocol  18  of  the  Act  of 
Accession,  as  regard  the  relations  of  the  Community  with  New  Zealand,  a 
traditional  supplier  of  dairy  products  to  a  substantial  part  of  the  enlarged 
Commun i t y. 

They  invite  the  Commission  to present  a  report  in order  to  prepare  the  review 
provided  for  in Article  5 of  the Protocol  and  to submit  as  soon  as  practicable 
a  proposal  for  the  maintenance  after  31  December  1977.  of  special  import 
arrangements  as  referred  to  in  that  Article.  They  observed  that  the 
institutions  of  the  Community  have  already  carried  out  certain  price 
adjustments  in  the  framework  of  the  Protocol.  In  the  same  spirit,  the 
Community,  which  remains  attached  to a  fair  implementation  of  the  Protocol  is 
ready  to  review  periodically  and  if  necessary  to  adjust  the  prices  having 
regard  to  the  supply  and  demand  developments  in  the  major  producing  and 
consuming  countries  of  the  world,  and  also  to  the  level  and  evolution  of 
prices  in  the  Community  -  including  intervention  prices  -  and  in New  Zealand, 
taking  moreover  into  account  cost  developments  in  New  Zealand  and  trends  in 
freight  charges. 

As  regards  the  annual  quantities  to  be  established  by  the  Community 
institutions  in  the  framework  of  the  special  arrangements  after  1977,  those 
should  not  deprive  New  Zealand  of  outlets  which  are  essential  for  it.  Thus 
for  the  period  up  to  1980,  these  annual  quantities  depending  upon  future 
market  developments,  could  remain  close  to effective  deliveries under  Protocol 
18  in 1974 and  the quantities currently  envisaged  by  New  Zealand  for  1975. 

They  note  that  Protocol  18 provides  that  the  exceptional  arrangements  for  the 
import  of  cheese  cannot  be  maintained  after  31  December  1977,  and  that  this 
situation  and  the problems  which may  arise  from  it will  be  given  due  attention 
with  appropriate  urgency,  taking  into  account  also  the  considerations  in  the 
following  paragraph. 

The  Heads  of  Government  note,  moreover,  that  New  Zealand  and  the  Community 
together  provide  the  major  part  of  the  worlds  exports  of  dairy  products. 
They,  therefore,  express  the  wish  that,  in  the  same  spirit  with  which  the 
Community  approaches  the  application  of  Protocol  18,  an  even  closer 
cooperation  be  developed  between  the  institutions  of  the  Community  and  the 
New  Zealand  authorities  with  the  objective  of  promoting  in  their  mutual 
interest  an  orderly  operation  of  world  markets.  Such  a  cooperation,  apart 
from  its  intrinsic  value,  should  provide  a  basis  from  which  to  achieve,  in a 
wider  framework,  the  conclusion  of  an  effective  world  agreement  such  as  that 
foreseen  in Protocol  18.

from  1989  to  1992; 

Whereas  the exceptional  arrangements  should  continue  in 
order to ensure continued  imports  from  New  Zealand , 

Whereas in view of  the  current state of  the  negotiations  in 
the  context  of  the  Uruguay  Round  it  is  opportune  to 
extend  the  existing  arrangements  for  the  access  of  New 
Zealand  butter  on  special  terms  for  one  year  and  the 
annual  rate  of  decrease  in  the  volume  should  be  main 
tained ; 

Whereas  provision  should  be  made  that  if  the  butter 
market requires changes  in  the  conditions  of  intervention, 
such  changes  must  be  reflected  in  the  price  of  New

disruption  of  the  United  Kingdom  butter  market  particu 
larly  in  the  case  of  a  substantial  fall  in  direct  butter 
consumption. 

3. 
Before  I  October  1993,  the  Council,  acting  unani

Le projet  de budget  pour  1994 a été déjà établi  dans  l'hypothèse  qu'une quantité de 
51.830 tonnes de beurre néo-zélandais sera  importée à des conditions spéciales pour 
l'année civile 1994.  (Voir commentaire à  la page  111/331 du projet  de budget, Vol. 4)

A N N E XE 

Les calculs sont  basés sur  les hypothèses suivantes : 

a)  Le règlement  proposé entre en vigueur  le 1er  Janvier  1994. 

b)  En appliquant  le prélèvement  normal,  il n'y  aurait  pas  d'importation 

de beurre néo-zélandais. 

c)  En  applicant  le  prélèvement  réduit,  il  y  aura  des  importations 
correspondant  à  la  quantité  fixe;  il  y  aura  des  recettes  en 
prélèvement  mais,  compte  tenu  de  la  situation  de  surplus,  il  sera 
nécessaire  d'exporter  une  quantité  correspondante  de  beurre 
communautaire. 

d)  Les  taux  du prélèvement  spécial  et  de  la restitution  à  l'exportation 
s'élèvent  respectivement  à 338,4 ECU/tonne  et  à  1.600 ECU/tonne  pour 
la période allant  jusqu'au  30.06.1994 et, compte  tenu de  la réduction 
du  prix  d'intervention  pour  le  beurre  à  partir  du  1.07.1994,  à 
331,4 ECU/tonne et à 1.580 ECU/tonne pour  la période suivante. 
Ces  taux  correspondent  aux  hypothèses  déjà  retenues  au  projet  de 
budget  pour 1994.
