COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1156/2000

of 30 May 2000

amending Regulation (EC) No 2705/98 on the determination of prices of adult bovine animals on
representative Community markets and the survey of prices of certain other cattle in the
Community

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

(a) under point A, the ‘weighting coefficients’ are replaced

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), and in particular Article 37 thereof,

Article 1(3) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2705/98
of 14 December 1998 on the determination of prices of
adult bovine animals on representative Community
markets and the survey of prices of certain other cattle
in the Community (2) provides for the possibility of
revising the list of representative markets and weighting
coefficients in the light of how marketing and the size of
the cattle population in each Member State develop. This
information should therefore be updated.

The planned amendments should be applied from 1
January 2001 to ensure that prices on the representative
markets remain comparable over the calendar year and
to allow the representative market
in Spain to be
changed as of 1 July 2000.

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in
accordance with the opinion of
the Management
Committee for Beef and Veal,
