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 on the Community market 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.

Article 21 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 800/1999
of 15 April 1999 laying down detailed rules for the
application of
the system of export refunds on agri-
cultural products (2) stipulates that no refund is granted
if the products are not of sound and fair marketable
quality on the date on which the export declaration is
accepted. In order to ensure uniform application of the

rules in force, it should be stated that, in order to qualify
for the refund, the poultrymeat listed in Article 1 of
Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75 must bear
the health
mark as laid down in Council Directive 71/118/EEC of
15 February 1971 on health problems affecting trade in
fresh poultrymeat (3).
