 Council Regulation (EEQ No 3759/92 of 17 December 1992 on the common
 organization of the market in fishery and aquaculture products covers a new species,
 included in particular in the list of eligible products in Annex I thereto, as a result of the
review of the organization in the wake of the enlargement of the European Union.              ~
The guide price must accordingly befixedfor that product for the 1995fishingyear in
accordance with Article 9 of Regulation (EEQ No 3759/92 and to that end Regulation
(EQ No 3136/94, which fixes the prices for products already covered by the common
organization of the market before the entry into force of the review, must be amended
accordingly.
In addition, since the amended version of Regulation (EEQ No 3759/92 came into force
on 1 January 1995, from that date producer organizations qualify under the market
measures relating to the new product concerned. The proposed Regulation should
accordingly apply from 1 January 1995.
This proposal for a Council Regulation amending Regulation (EQ No 3136/94 sets out
to achieve that aim
This proposal has no direct financial impact on the Community budget (financial
statement appended).

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 of 17 December 1992 on the common organization
of the market infisheryand aquaculture products1, as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 3318/942, and
in particular Article 9 (3) thereof
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92 of 28 December 1992 on the unit of account and
the conversion rates to be applied for the purposes of the common agricultural policy3, as last amended by
Regulation (EC) No 150/95 of 30 January 19954, and in particular Article 12 and Article 13 (1) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas the aim of Article 1 (10) of Regulation (EC) No 3318/94 was in particular to introduce a new
product eligible under the intervention mechanisms of the common organization of the market; whereas the
application of those mechanisms calls for the
fixing of a guide price for the new product concerned in accordance with Article 9 (1) and (2) of
Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92;
Whereas, moreover, there no longer appears to be any justification for maintaining two guide prices for
herrings for the 1995 fishing year;
Whereas Council Regulation (EC) No 3136/94 of 15 December 19945fixesthe guide prices for the 1995
fishing year for the fishery products covered by the common organization of the market before the entry into
                 OJ No L 388, 31.12.1992, p.l.

 ---pagebreak--- force of Regulation (EC) No 3318/94; whereas it must accordingly be amended to include the guide price
for the new product and the single guide price for herrings;
Whereas the entry into force of the amendment to Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 on 1 January 1995 entitles
the producer organizations to the Community contribution for intervention on the market relating to the new
product as from that date; whereas provision should accordingly be made for this Regulation to apply from
1 January 1995;
Whereas the operative events for the conversion rates to be applied for the calculation of certain amounts
under the common organization of the market in fishery products are determined by Commission Regulation
(EC) No 3516/936; whereas, as a result, the relevant agricultural conversion rate for the period 1 to 31
January 1995 is to be multiplied by the correcting factor 1,207509; whereas the guide prices for that period
must be fixed accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

OBSERVATIONS                Since the fixing of prices is concerned, the impact on expenditure is indirect. The expenditure
                            concerned depends largely on the market trend and the quantities landed. In addition, the budget
                            estimate for the 1995 fishing year took account of the new product and any measures connected
                            with the latter will not entail additional expenditure.
