 ---pagebreak---                          EXPLANATORY NOTE
This draft Regulation proposal is aimed at renewing for the 1977/ 78 marketing y£ar
the standard amount which reduces the import levy applicable to unrefined olive
oil originating from Greece . The amount for the 1976/ 77 marketing year amounted
to 0.50 u.a. / 100 kg .
As a reminder , the sum in question is aimed at assuring that Greek oils have a
preferential position on the Community market in relation to those from third
countries . It is equally necessary to draw the Council 's attention of the necessity
to consult Greece, conforming to Article 3 pax . 3 of Regulation Ho . 162/66/CEE
                 of 27 October 1966 , on trade in oils and fats between the
                 Community and Greece .

THE COUNCIL OP THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community ,
Having regard to Council Regulation No 162/66/EEC of 27 October 1966 on trade
in oils and fats between the Community and Greece^ \ and in particular Article
3 ( 3 ) thereof ,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
\
Whereas , in anticipation of the harmonization of agricultural policies , trade
in olive oil between the Community and Greece should be developed , taking
account of the availability of olive oil on the Greek market and on that of
the Community and of marketing possibilities for this product ;
Whereas the standard amount must be based both on the present volume of trade between
the Community and Greece and on the future prospects of both markets ;
Whereas the standard amount must represent a sufficiently high percentage of
the market target price to ensure a preferential position for Greek oils on the
Community market compared with those from third countries ; whereas , however ,
this amount must be set at such a level that it does not prejudice the reali­
 zation of the market target price for Community production ;
Whereas the standard amount , as established for the years during which prices on
the Greek market have made it possible to export oil from Greece to the Community ,
has ensured that this preference exists without creating difficulties for the
marketing of Community production ; whereas the level of this amount should
 consequently remain unchanged for the 1977/78 marketing year;
  (Whereas Greece has been consulted
pursuant to Article 3 (3 ) of Regulation No 162/66/EEC ).
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION :
