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 implementing Council
Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 as regards export refunds on fruit
and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No
1303/1999 (2), and in particular Article 5(5) thereof,

(1) Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1926/
1999 (3),
fixes the indicative quantities for system B
export licences other than those sought in the context of
food aid;

(2) 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
table grapes and apples for destination group F02 will
shortly be exceeded; whereas this overrun will prejudice

the proper working of the export refund scheme in the
fruit and vegetables sector;

(3) Whereas, to avoid this situation, applications for system
B licences for table grapes and apples for destination
group F02 exported after 22 October 1999 should be
rejected until the end of the current export period,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Applications for system B export licences for table grapes and
apples for destination group F02 submitted pursuant to Article
1 of Regulation (EC) No 1926/1999, export declarations for

November 1999, are hereby rejected.
