COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1623/98

of 20 July 1998

fixing the monthly increases in the intervention price for cereals for the 1998/99
marketing year

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Article 1

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92
of 30 June 1992 on the common organisation of the
market in cereals (1), and in particular Article 3(4) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (2),

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parlia-
ment (3),

Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social
Committee (4),

Whereas, when the amounts and the number of
the
monthly increases are fixed and the first month in which
they are to apply is determined, account should be taken
of the storage costs and financing charges for storing
cereals in the Community and of the need to ensure that
the disposal of stocks of cereals is in line with market
requirements;

Whereas, under the form of the common agricultural
policy, provision was made for the fixing of a single
intervention price for all cereals; whereas this price has
been fixed at a substantially reduced level applied in
stages; whereas this fact should be taken into account in
the fixing of the size of the monthly increases;

Whereas the intervention price for maize and sorghum
applicable in July, August and September is to be the
price valid in May of the previous marketing year, in
accordance with Article 3(3) of Regulation (EEC) No
1766/92,

(1) OJ L 181, 1. 7. 1992, p. 21. Regulation as last amended by
Regulation (EC) No 923/96 (OJ L 126, 24. 5. 1996, p. 37).

Without prejudice to the last subparagraph of Article 3(3)
of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92,
the 1998/99
marketing year, the monthly increases to be applied to
the intervention price applicable for the first month of

on the issue of system B export licences in the fruit and vegetables sector

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 2190/
96 of 14 November 1996 on detailed rules for imple-
menting Council Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 as regards
export refunds on fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended
by Regulation (EC) No 1287/98 (2), and in particular
Article 5(5) thereof,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1276/98 (3), as
amended by Regulation (EC) No 1302/98 (4), fixes the
indicative quantities for system B export licences other
than those sought in the context of food aid;

Whereas, in the light of the information available to the
Commission today, there is a risk that the indicative
quantities laid down for the current export period for
apples destined for geographical groups X and Y and
peaches and nectarines will shortly be exceeded; whereas
this overrun will prejudice the proper working of the
export refund scheme in the fruit and vegetables sector;

Whereas, to avoid this situation, applications for system B
licences for apples destined for geographical groups X
and Y and peaches and nectarines exported after 20 July
1998 should be rejected until the end of the current
export period,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Applications for system B export
destined for geographical groups X and Y and peaches

tion (EC) No 1276/98, export declarations for which are
accepted after 20 July 1998 and before 16 September
1998, are hereby rejected.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 of
22 December 1995 on the common organisation of the
market in rice (1), as amended by Regulation (EC) No
192/98 (2),

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1162/
95 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 444/98 (4),
and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 7(4)
thereof,

Whereas Article 7(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1162/95
provides, where this paragraph is specifically referred to
when an export refund is fixed, for an interval of three
working days between the day of submission of applica-
tions and the granting of export licences with advance
fixing of the refund and provides that the Commission is
to fix a uniform percentage reduction in the quantities if
licences exceed the quantities
applications for export
which may be exported; whereas Commission Regulation
(EC) No 1346/98 (5) fixes refunds under the procedure
provided for in the abovementioned paragraph for 275
tonnes;

Whereas the quantities applied for on 17 July 1998 are in
excess of the available quantity of 275 tonnes; whereas a

percentage reduction should therefore be fixed for export
licence applications submitted on 17 July 1998;

Whereas, in view of its purpose, this Regulation should
take effect from the day of its publication in the Official
Journal of the European Communities,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Applications for export licences for rice and broken rice
with advance fixing of the refund submitted under Regu-
lation (EC) No 1346/98 on 17 July 1998 shall give rise to
the issue of licences for the quantities applied for to
which a percentage reduction of 89,13 % has been
applied.

Article 2

Applications for export licences for rice and broken rice
submitted from 20 July 1998 shall not give rise to the
issue of export licences under Regulation (EC) No 1346/

of 20 July 1998

fixing the guide price for wine for the 1998/99 wine year

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 of
16 March 1987 on the common organisation of
the
market in wine (1), and in particular Article 27(5) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (2),

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parlia-
ment (3),

Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social
Committee (4),

Whereas, when the guide prices for the various types of
table wine are fixed, account should be taken of the
objectives of the common agricultural policy; whereas the
objectives of
in
particular, to ensure a fair standard of living for the agri-
cultural community, to assure the availability of supplies
and to ensure that supplies reach consumers at reasonable
prices;

the common agricultural policy are,

Whereas, if these objectives are to be achieved, it is of
prime importance that the gap between production and
demand should not be opened further; whereas, to that
end, the guide prices for the 1998/99 wine year should be
set at the same levels as the previous year;

Whereas the guide prices, as defined in Annex III to
