          Under the -terms of the Regulation No IO59/69 variable components
levied, on imports of processed agricultural products are fixed at zero
when they amount to less than 0.25 UA per 100 kg of goods .
          By raising this minimum level from 0.25 "to 0.50 f a certain amount
of administrative work will be avoided without any great loss of revenue .
          Another reason for adjusting the level upwards is that the bene­
ficial effeot of the provision at the time when the O.25 UA was originally
f\r.oA - has si nee "been eroded by changes in prioe levels .

Whereas by virtue of .Article 6(5) of Regulation ( EEC) No 1059/69
laying down the trade arrangements applicable to certain goods resulting
from the processing of agricultural products ,          as last amended by Regulation

amount thereof is less than 0.25 units of account per 100 kilogrammes of
goods ;
Whereas in consequence of the general rise in prices the inoidence of 0*25 units
of account on the value of goods has considerably,, diminished since the intro­
duction of this minimum in 1966 ;
Whereas , with «• view to simplifying the application of the said Regulation, it
is possible to fix this minimum at 0.50 units of account without prejudicing
