Draft communication to operators in the banana sector

Subject: Applications for the registration of operators for 2000

(1999/C 181/05)

1. Articles 5 and 8 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2362/98 laying down detailed rules for the
implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 404/93 regarding imports of bananas into the
Community (1) stipulate that applications for the registration of traditional operators and newcomers
must be submitted to Member States before 1 July, and that operators must at the same time forward to
the competent national authorities the supporting documents necessary for determination of their
reference quantities or annual allocations as appropriate.

2. At the present time, the conditions under which bananas will be imported in 2000 are not yet known
but it is possible that there will be adjustments to the current import arrangements. Consultations are
currently in progress with the parties involved.

3. As a result, operators are advised to retain for possible use by the competent national authorities any
document attesting to their activities in the banana sector and not to submit any applications for
registration until further notice.
