fixing the export refunds on poultrymeat

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75 of 29
October 1975 on the common organization of the market in
poultrymeat (1), as last amended by Commission Regulation
(EC) No 2916/95 (2), and in particular Article 8(3) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

(2)

Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75 provides that
the difference between prices on the world market for
the products listed in Article 1(1) of that Regulation and
prices for those products within the Community may be
covered by an export refund.

It follows from applying these rules and criteria to the
present situation on the market in poultrymeat that the
refund should be fixed at an amount which would
permit Community participation in world trade and

would also take account of the nature of these exports
and their importance at the present time.

(3)

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The list of product codes for which, when they are exported,
the export refund referred to in Article 8 of Regulation (EEC)
No 2777/75 is granted, and the amount of that refund shall be
as shown in the Annex hereto.

This Regulation shall enter into force on 17 April 2002.

Article 2

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

Whereas, pursuant to Article 21(2), any sectoral Annex may, through the Joint Committee, be amended in
writing by the Parties,

Noting, on the one hand, the progress that has been made in carrying out the confidence-building activities

1. The sectoral Annex for medical devices is amended according to the following:

(a) the first sentence of Article 5 of the sectoral Annex on medical devices is deleted in its entirety and

replaced with the following:
‘There shall be a five-year transition period immediately following the date of entry into force of the
Agreement. Based on progress made during the transition period, and in particular when the Parties
consider that a representative number of conformity assessment bodies are listed in Appendix 5, in
accordance with Article 9, the Joint Committee may decide to end the transition period and proceed
to the operational period.’

(b) the first sentence of Article 9 of the sectoral Annex on medical devices is deleted in its entirety and

replaced with the following:
‘Prior to the start of the operational period, the Parties shall proceed to a joint assessment of the
equivalence of the CABs that participated in the confidence-building activities.’

2. This Decision, done in duplicate, shall be signed by representatives of the Joint Committee who are
authorised to act on behalf of the Parties for purposes of amending the Agreement. This Decision shall
