 Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community ;
 Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC ) No 865/68       of 28 June 1968 on
 the common organization of the market in products processed from fruit
                                                                   (?)

 particular Article 9(l ) thereof ;
 Having regard to the proposal from the Commission;

 Whereas , pursuant to the ^Second subparagraph of Article I6(l ) of Council
 Regulation No IOO9/67/EEC        of 18 December 1967 on the common organization
 of the toarket in sugar , as last amended by Regulation (EEC ) NO 1602/74
 provision may be made for a special levy to be charged on exports of sugar
"in the event of Community sugar supply difficulties ; >
Whereas experience gained in applying this measure has shown that its
 effectiveness may be impaired in cases where sugar is exported in the form of
 certain products processed from fruit and vegetables and containing added sugar
whereas this is particularly the case for certain products processed from fruit
and vegetables which have a relatively high added sugar content ; whereas
provision should therefore be made for a charge to be imposed on exports of
the products in question , fixed on the basis of the special levy on sugar
exports when that levy exceeds a certain amount and excessive exports are
recorded ;
