            COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) No 1258/2010
of 20 December 2010
         
fixing for the 2011 fishing year the guide prices and Union producer prices for certain fishery products pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 104/2000


THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 43(3) thereof,


Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Whereas:







(1)


According to Article 43(3) of the Treaty, the Council, on a proposal from the Commission, is to adopt measures on the fixing of prices.












(2)


Council Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 of 17 December 1999 on the common organisation of the markets in fishery and aquaculture products (1) requires that guide prices and Union producer prices for each fishing year be fixed in order to determine price levels for intervention on the market for certain fisheries products.












(3)


It is incumbent upon the Council to fix the guide prices for each of the products and groups of products listed in Annexes I and II to Regulation (EC) No 104/2000, and the Union producer prices for the products listed in Annex III to that Regulation.












(4)


On the basis of the data currently available on the prices for the products concerned and the criteria referred to in Article 18(2) of Regulation (EC) No 104/2000, the guide prices should be increased, maintained or reduced for the 2011 fishing year depending on the species.












(5)


It is appropriate to establish the Union producer price for one of the products listed in Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 and calculate the Union producer prices for the others by means of the conversion factors established by Commission Regulation (EC) No 802/2006 of 30 May 2006 fixing the conversion factors applicable to fish of the genera Thunnus and Euthynnus (2).












(6)


On the basis of the criteria laid down in the first and second indents of Article 18(2) and in Article 26(1) of Regulation (EC) No 104/2000, the Union producer price for the 2011 fishing year should be adjusted,





HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:



Article 1
For the fishing year from 1 January to 31 December 2011, the guide prices as provided for in Article 18(1) of Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 shall be as set out in Annex I to this Regulation.


Article 2
For the fishing year from 1 January to 31 December 2011, the Union producer prices as provided for in Article 26(1) of Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 shall be as set out in Annex II to this Regulation.


Article 3
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 2011.




This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 20 December 2010.
