COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2726/98

of 17 December 1998

fixing the production refund for olive oil used in the manufacture of certain
preserved foods

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC of
22 September 1966 on the establishment of a common
organisation of the market in oils and fats (1), as last
amended by Regulation (EC) No 1638/98 (2), and in
particular Article 20a thereof,

Whereas Article 20a of Regulation No 136/66/EEC
provides for the granting of a production refund for olive
oil used in the preserving industry; whereas under para-
graph 6 of that Article, and without prejudice to para-
graph 3 thereof, the Commission shall fix this refund
every two months;

Whereas by virtue of Article 20a (2) of the abovemen-
tioned Regulation, the production refund must be fixed
on the basis of the gap between prices on the world
market and on the Community market, taking account of
the import charge applicable to olive oil falling within
CN subheading 1509 90 00 and the factors used for fixing
the export refunds for those olive oils during the refer-
ence period; whereas it is appropriate to take as a refer-
ence period the two-month period preceding the begin-
ning of the term of validity of the production refund;

Whereas Article 2 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1103/
97 of 17 June 1997 on certain provisions relating to the
introduction of
the euro (3) provides that as from 1
January 1999, all references to the ecu in legal instru-
ments are to be replaced by references to the euro at the
rate of EUR 1 to ECU 1; whereas, for the sake of clarity,
the denomination ‘euro' should be used in this Regula-
tion since it is to apply from 1 January 1999;

Whereas the application of the above criteria results in
the refund being fixed as shown below,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

For the months of January and February 1999,
the
amount of the production refund referred to in Article
20a(2) of Regulation No 136/66/EEC shall be EUR 44,00
per 100 kilograms.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on 18 December
1998.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member
States.

Done at Brussels, 17 December 1998.
