COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2494/1999

of 25 November 1999

on the issue of system B export licences in the fruit and vegetables sector

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 2331/
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
apples for destination groups F03 and F04 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 apples for destination groups F03 and F04
exported after 25 November 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 apples for desti-
nation groups F03 and F04 submitted pursuant to Article 1 of
Regulation (EC) No 2331/1999, export declarations for which
are accepted after 25 November 1999 and before 24 January
2000, are hereby rejected.

This Regulation shall enter into force on 26 November 1999.

Article 2

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

Done at Brussels, 25 November 1999.
