 ---pagebreak---  COMMUNICATION FROM THE CO?CgSSION TO THE COUNCIL
 I. The proposal for a Council regulation amending Regulation No IOO9/67/EEC
     is intended , for the reasons indicated in the statement of grounds for
     the proposal , to extend the validity of the intervention system for raw
     beet sugar until 30 June 1975 *
II . The proposal for a Council regulation amending Regulation (EEC ) Bo 43l/68
     is of a strictly technical nature . This proposal follows the recent
     finding that the formula adopted for calculating the yield of raw
     cane sugar does not enable the actual yield of the sugar in question
     to "be calculated . Since this amendment may not be introduced during
     the marketing year , the Regulation is to apply from 1 July 1973 *
 These two proposals have no financial consequences for the Community budget :
 - the first , because it is a measure of a theoretical nature , constituting
    merely a guarantee and a reference for trade in the sugar in question,
    which since 1968 has never been the subject of intervention ?
 - the second , because it is of a purely technical nature .

                     amending Regulation No 1009/ 67/EEC on the common organization
                                    of the market in sugar
THE COUNCIL OP THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the . European Economic Community ,
and in particular Article 43 thereof !
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission!
Having regard to the Opinion of the European Parliament !
Whereas Council Regulation No IOO9/67/CEE of 18 December 1967 on the common
organization of the market in sugar (l ), as last amended by Regulation (EEC )
No 6O7/72 ( 2 ), provides in Article 9 ( 3) that the intervention system for
white sugar applies also , for a period specified , to raw beet sugar !
Whereas the extension of this system to raw beet sugar is justified by the
obligation on manufacturers of such sugar to pay a fixed minimum price for
beet , that price being the same as the price paid by manufacturers of white
sugar ! whereas , however , to take account of the tendency for production of such
sugar eventually to be discontinued owing to the progressive modernization of
the sugar industry, the system aforesaid was initially made applicable only for
a certain period , which was subsequently extended !
Whereas at present a substantial output of raw beet sugar continues to be produced
both in the original and in the new Member States 3 whereas a further extension of
the period of applicability of the intervention system to raw beet sugar is there­
fore necessary !

THE COUNdlJ OP THE EUR0P3AN COMMUÎTITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community }
Having regard to Council Regulation No IOO9/67/EEC (l) of 18 December 196? on
the common organization ot the market in sugar, als last amended by Regulation
(EEC ) No 6O7/72 ( 2 ), and in particular Article 3 ( 6 ) thereof }
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission!
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC ) No 43l/68 ( 3) of 9 April 1968 determining the
standard quality for raw sugar and fixing the Community frontier crossing point
for calculating c.i.f. prices for sugar , laid down inter alia the method of
calculating the yield of raw cane sugar }
Whereas experience has confirmed that the yield of raw cane sugar calculated in
accordance with the method laid down in Regulation (EEC ) No 43l/68 does not
correspond exactly to the actual yield obtained for that sugar f whereas the
method of calculation concerned should therefore be adjusted accordingly}
