of 20 December 2001

fixing the standard values to be used in calculating the financial compensation and the advance
pertaining thereto in respect of fishery products withdrawn from the market during the 2002
fishing year

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 of 17
December 1999 on the common organisation of the markets
in fishery and aquaculture products (1), as amended by
Commission Regulation (EC) No 939/2001 (2), and in partic-
ular Article 21(5) and (8) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

(2)

(3)

Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 provides for financial
compensation to be paid to producer organisations
which withdraw, on certain conditions, the products
listed in Annex I(A) and (B) to that Regulation. The
such financial compensation should be
amount of
reduced by standard values in the case of products
intended for purposes other than human consumption.

Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1501/83 of 9 June
1983 on the disposal of certain fishery products which
have been withdrawn from the market (3) specifies the
ways of disposing of the products withdrawn. The value
of such products should be fixed at a standard level for
each of these modes of disposal, taking into account the
average revenues which may be obtained from such
disposal

in the various Member States.

Under Article 7 of Commission Regulation (EC) No
2509/2000 of 15 November 2000 setting detailed rules
for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 104/
2000 as regards financial compensation on certain
fishery products (4), special rules provide that, where a
producer organisation or one of its members puts its
products up for sale in a Member State other than the
country in which it is recognised, the body responsible

financial

for granting the
compensation must be
informed. This body is the one in the Member State in
which the producer organisation is recognised. The
standard value deductible should therefore be the value
applied in that Member State.

(4)

(5)

The same method of calculation should be applied to
advances on financial compensation as provided for in
Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 2509/2000.

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in
the Management
accordance with the opinion of
Committee for Fishery Products,

Article 1

For the 2002 fishing year, the standard values to be used in
calculating financial compensation and associated advances for
products withdrawn from the market by producer organ-
isations, intended for purposes other than human consump-
tion, are hereby fixed as set out in the Annex hereto for each of
the uses shown.

Article 2

The standard value to be deducted from financial compensa-
tion and associated advances shall be that applied in the
Member State in which the producer organisation is recog-
nised.

This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 2002.

Article 3

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

Done at Brussels, 20 December 2001.
