COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1495/2006

of 10 October 2006

fixing the export refunds on poultrymeat

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty
Community,

establishing the European

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75 of
29 October 1975 on the common organisation of the market
in poultrymeat (1), and in particular the third subparagraph of
Article 8(3) thereof,

Whereas:

Article 8(1) 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.

Given the present situation on the market
in poul-
trymeat, export refunds should therefore be fixed in
accordance with the rules and criteria provided for in
Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75.

Article 8(3), second subparagraph of Regulation (EEC)
No 2777/75 provides that the world market situation
or the specific requirements of certain markets may
make it necessary to vary the refund according to desti-
nation.

Refunds should be granted only on products that are
allowed to move freely in the Community and that
bear the identification mark as provided for in Article
5(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 853/2004 of
the
European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April
2004 laying down specific hygiene rules for food of

animal origin (2). Those products should also comply
with the requirements of Regulation (EC) No 852/2004
of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29
April 2004 on the hygiene of foodstuffs (3).

The negotiations within the framework of the Europe
Agreements between the European Community and
Romania and Bulgaria aim in particular to liberalise
trade in products covered by the common organisation
of the market concerned. For these two countries export
refunds should therefore be abolished.

The Management Committee for Poultrymeat and Eggs
has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by
its chairman,
