fixing the export refunds on beef and veal and amending Regulations (EEC) No 3846/87
establishing an agricultural product nomenclature for export refunds and (EC) No 1445/95 on

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 of 17
May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in beef
and veal (1), as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No
907/2000 (2) and in particular Article 33(12) thereof,

Whereas:

Article 33 of Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 provides
that the difference between prices on the world market
for the products listed in Article 1 of that Regulation
and prices for those products within the Community
may be covered by an export refund.

Commission Regulation (EEC) No 32/82 (3), as last
amended by Regulation (EC) No 744/2000 (4), Regula-
tion (EEC) No 1964/82 (5), as last amended by Regula-
tion (EC) No 1452/1999 (6), and Regulation (EEC) No
2388/84 (7), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No
3661/92 (8), lay down the conditions for granting special
export refunds on certain cuts of beef and veal and
certain preserved beef and veal products.

It follows from applying those rules and criteria to the
foreseeable situation on the market in beef and veal that
the refund should be as set out below.

Given the current market situation in the Community
and the possibilities of disposal in certain third countries
in particular, export refunds should be granted, on the
one hand, on bovine animals intended for slaughter of a
live weight greater than 220 kilograms and less than
300 kilograms, and, on the other on adult bovine
animals of a live weight of at least 300 kilograms.

Export refunds should be granted for certain destinations
on some fresh or chilled meat listed in the Annex I
under CN code 0201, on some frozen meat listed in
Annex I under CN code 0202, on some meat or offal
listed in Annex I under CN code 0206 and on some

In view of the wide differences in products covered by
CN codes 0201 20 90 9700 and 0202 20 90 9100 used
for refund purposes, refunds should be granted only on
cuts in which the weight of bone does not exceed one
third.

In the case of meat of bovine animals, boned or bone-
less, salted and dried, there are traditional trade flows to
Switzerland. To allow this trade to continue, the refund
should be set to cover the difference between prices on
the Swiss market and export prices in the Member
States.

In the case of certain other cuts and preserves of meat or
offal shown in Annex I under CN codes 1602 50 31 to
1602 50 80, the Community share of international trade
may be maintained by granting a refund corresponding
to that at present available.

In the case of other beef and veal products, a refund
need not be fixed since the Community's share of world
trade is not significant.

Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 (9), as last
amended by Regulation (EC) No 2765/1999 (10), estab-
lishes the agricultural product nomenclature for the
purposes of export refunds.

In order to simplify customs export formalities for oper-
ators, the refunds on all frozen cuts should be brought
into line with those on fresh or chilled cuts other than
those from adult male bovine animals.

Checks on products covered by CN code 1602 50
should be stepped up by making the granting of refunds
on these products conditional on manufacture under the
arrangements provided for in Article 4 of Council Regu-
lation (EEC) No 565/80 of 4 March 1980 on the
advance payment of export refunds in respect of agricul-
tural products (11), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No
2026/83 (12).

Refunds on female animals should vary depending on
their age in order to prevent abuses in the export of
certain pure-bred breeding animals.

(14) Opportunities exist for the export to certain third coun-
tries of heifers other than those intended for slaughter,
but to prevent any abuse control criteria should be laid
down to ensure that these animals are not more than 36
months old.

(15) Notwithstanding the

subdivision of

the Combined
Nomenclature for prepared and preserved meat falling
within CN code 1602 50, experience has shown that it
is possible to delete from the refund nomenclature
several products covered by that code.

(16)

Following introduction at the beginning of January 1998
of a new specific refund on boneless forequarter cuts
from male adult bovine animals, experience has shown
the desirability of totally withdrawing the product codes
for refunds on certain other boneless meat with a lean
meat content of at least 55 %. Section 5 of the Annex to
Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 and Annex III to Commis-
sion Regulation (EC) No 1445/95 of 26 June 1995 on
rules of application for import and export licences in the
beef and veal sector (1), as last amended by Regulation
(EC) No 2648/98 (2), should therefore be amended
accordingly.
