Answer given by Mr van den Broek on behalf of the Commission

(7 May 1999)

The Commission informs the Honourable Member that unit 3 of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant (NPP)
returned to operation on 6 March 1999 following a planned outage of three months for inspection and
maintenance.

In the memorandum of understanding, signed in 1995 between the G7 countries, the Commission and
Ukraine, the latter has taken the commitment to close the Chernobyl plant by the year 2000.

The Commission considers that the implementation of the 1995 memorandum of understanding is
progressing and expects, in particular, that Ukraine will stick to its commitment to close the Chernobyl
plant by 2000.

Regulation (EEC) 95/93 (1) of 18 January 1993 and whether the South West Region of the United

WRITTEN QUESTION E-1002/99

by Ian White (PSE) to the Commission

(20 April 1999)

Subject: Open Commercial Trading of slots at airports

Is the Commission aware that the potential open commercial trading of slots at airports by airlines will
lead to smaller regional services being squeezed out of major hub airports due to pure commercial
pressure? Is this not contrary to the policy of regionalisation and transport access by air on a region-to-
region basis?

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 819/1999

of 20 April 1999

fixing the export refunds on eggs

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2771/75
of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the
market in eggs (1), as last amended by Commission Regu-
lation (EC) No 1516/96 (2), and in particular Article 8(3)
thereof,

Whereas Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 2771/75
provides that the difference between prices on the world
market for the products listed in Article 1(1) of that
Regulation and prices for those products within the
Community may be covered by an export refund;

Whereas the present market situation in certain third
countries and that regarding competition on particular
third country markets make it necessary to fix a refund
differentiated by destination for certain products in the
egg sector;

Whereas it follows from applying these rules and criteria
to the present situation on the market in eggs that the
refund should be fixed at an amount which would permit
Community participation in world trade and would also
take account of the nature of these exports and their
importance at the present time;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are
in accordance with the opinion of
the Management
Committee for Poultrymeat and Eggs,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The list of codes of products for which, when they are
exported, the export refund referred to in Article 8 of
Regulation (EEC) No 2771/75 is granted, and the amount
of that refund shall be as shown in the Annex hereto.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on 22 April 1999.

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

Done at Brussels, 20 April 1999.
