I. General remarks :                                      ,                .. .
      Tho common organization of the market in. poultrymeat , established in
   Council Regulation No 123/67/&EC , involves mainly a system of levies and.
   sluice-gate prices calculated principally on the basis of prices of feed
   grain .
      In order to establish the sjaount of the levy and the level of the
   sluice-gate price for each product , the quantities of fe&d grain required
   for the production of 1 kg of the product and the other costs of production
   and marketing should be specified .
      Council Regulation No 146/67/EEC laid down the rules to be observed in
   making these calculations and fixed the processing coefficients (quantity
   of grain) and the standard amounts ( other costs ) for whole slaughtered
   poultry and chicks .
      Developments in production and marketing techniques and changes in
   production , processing' and market costs , especially in recent months ,
   cannot be ignored .
      It is the Commission 's view that the time has come to present to the
   Council proposals for altering the factors for calculating the levy and
   the sluice-gate price . These proposals are not of a kind likely to provo^ce
   disturbance in trade . Their adoption could demonstrate the desire of
   Member States to bring the Community rules into line with the technical
   and commercial realities of agricultural production. ,

               C. Effect on the sluice-gate price and on the levy :
                       The use of the proposed factors for calculation would have an
                     effect on the amount of the sluice-gate prices and the levies as
                     at 1 August 1974 as shown in the following table .
                       Also shown is the effect which the proposal would have had on
