of 17 May 1999

reducing the Community withdrawal compensation for cauliflowers for the 1999/
2000 marketing year as a result of the overrun of the intervention threshold fixed
for the 1998/99 marketing year

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 of
28 October 1996 on the common organisation of the
market in fruit and vegetables (1), as amended by Regula-
tion (EC) No 857/99 (2), and in particular Article 27(2)
thereof,

for

cauliflowers

(1) Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1068/
fixes at 111 300 tonnes the intervention
98 (3)
threshold for
the 1998/1999
marketing year; whereas under Article 3 of that
if the quantity of cauliflowers with-
Regulation,
drawn in the period between 1 March 1998 and 28
February 1999 exceeds the threshold fixed,
the
Community withdrawal compensation indicated in
Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 for the
1999/2000 marketing year is to be reduced in
proportion to the size of the overrun based on the
production used to calculate the relevant threshold;

(2) Whereas the information supplied by the Member
States indicates that withdrawals for the 1998/1999
marketing year involved 120 064 tonnes of cauli-
flowers;

(3) Whereas, as a result of the above, the Community
withdrawal compensation set by Regulation (EC)

No 2200/96 for the 1999/2000 marketing year
must be reduced by 0,4 % for cauliflowers;

(4) Whereas Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 1068/98
lays down that the consequences of the threshold
overrun are to apply in the following marketing
year; whereas it is therefore necessary to apply the
reduced Community withdrawal
compensation
during the marketing year for cauliflower;

(5) Whereas the measures provided for in this Regula-
tion are in accordance with the opinion of the
Management Committee for Fresh Fruit and Veget-
ables,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The Community withdrawal compensation for cauli-
flowers for the 1999/2000 marketing year is hereby fixed
at EUR 8,38 per 100 kilograms net.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its
publication in the Official Journal of the European
Communities.

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