COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1291/2002

of 16 July 2002

amending Regulation (EC) No 21/2002 establishing the supply balances and Community aid for the
outermost regions under Council Regulations (EC) Nos 1452/2001, 1453/2001 and 1454/2001 with
regard to eggs, poultry and rabbit sector for the Canary Islands

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

(2)

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1454/2001 of 28
June 2001 introducing specific measures for certain agricultural
products for the Canary Islands and repealing Regulation (EEC)
No 1601/92 (Poseican) (1), amended by Regulation (EC) No
1195/2002 (2), and in particular Article 3(6) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Commission Regulation (EC) No 21/2002 (3), as last
modified by Regulation (EC) No 679/2002 (4), estab-
lishes the supply balances and Community aid for the
outermost regions under Council Regulations (EC) Nos
1452/2001 (5), 1453/2001 (6) and 1454/2001.

Evidence shows that the quantities of grandparent and
(CN
parent female chicks provided in Annex III(11),
code ex 0105 11) are not used due to the fact that the
aid has not been sufficient to compensate the relatively
high transport costs. It is therefore necessary to increase
the aid.

For the purpose of setting the aid for supply to the
Canary Islands of the products listed in Annex III(11)
and in the interests of simplification, there should be a
permanent reference to the Regulations fixing the export
refund for similar products whenever such refunds are
granted.

Regulation (EC) No 21/2002 should be amended accord-
ingly.

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