COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2400/1999

of 11 November 1999

fixing the export refunds on pigmeat

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 of 29
October 1975 on the common organisation of the market in
pigmeat (1), as last amended by the Act of Accession of Austria,
Finland and Sweden and by Regulation (EC) No 3290/94 (2),
and in particular
the second paragraph of Article 13 (3)
thereof,

(1) Whereas Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75
provides that the difference between prices on the world
market for the products listed in Article 1(1) of that
Regulation and prices for these products within the
Community may be covered by an export refund;

(2) Whereas it follows from applying these rules and criteria
to the present situation on the market in pigmeat that
the refund should be fixed as set out below;

(3) Whereas, in the case of products falling within CN code
0210 19 81, the refund should be limited to an amount
which takes account of the qualitative characteristics of
each of the products falling within these codes and of
the foreseeable trend of production costs on the world
market; whereas it is important that the Community
should continue to take part in international trade in the
case of certain typical Italian products falling within CN
code 0210 19 81;

(4) Whereas, because of the conditions of competition in
certain third countries, which are traditionally importers
of products falling within CN codes 1601 00 and 1602,
the refund for these products should be fixed so as to

take this situation into account; whereas steps should be
taken to ensure that the refund is granted only for the
net weight of the edible substances, to the exclusion of
the net weight of the bones possibly contained in the
said preparations;

(5) Whereas Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75
provides that the world market situation or the specific
requirements of certain markets may make it necessary
to vary the refund on the products listed in Article 1(1)
of Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 according to destina-
tion;

(6) Whereas the refunds should be fixed taking account of
the amendments to the refund nomenclature established
by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 (3), as last
amended by Regulation (EC) No 1230/1999 (4);

(7) Whereas the Management Committee for Pigmeat has
not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its
chairman,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The list of products on which the export refund specified in
Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 is granted and the
amount of the refund shall be as set out in the Annex hereto.

This Regulation shall enter into force on 12 November 1999.

Article 2

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

Done at Brussels, 11 November 1999.
