 Demand in the industry for treat for processing has been assessed by the reference

 Community supplies of meat for processing have been estimated by reference to

 Aocording to information supplied to the Commission by the Member States in
-September 1978 , Community supplies of borae~produc ed fresh meat for processing
 for 1979 ca*i he estimated at 800,000 tonnes of meat on the bone . The total
of 800,000 tortnes includes an estimate of approximately 60,000 tonnes in respect

 It ia also estimated that at the end of 1978 "th© Community will hold a public
 stock of meat as a result of standing intervention purchases# The quantity of
 this meat satisfying the requirements of meat for processing can be estimated
 at    145 ,500 tonnes of meat on th@ boneo
 At the end of 1978 there will be a rjtoc'k of meat held in private storage under
 Commission Regulations (EEC) Nos 1405/78^luad 2562/78^
 which provide for the granting of private storage aid for beef.
 The quantity of this meat satisfying the requirements for processing is
 estimated at 50,000 tonnes' of meat on- -the bone .
 With effect from January 1979 "the Community will open a tariff quota for 38,500
 tonnes of boneless frozen meat , which corresponds to 50,000 tonnes of meat on
 the bone®           -

In 1979 "the quantity of meat to "be imported into the Community and originating
from Botswana , Kenya, Madagascar and Swaziland which satisfies the requirements
for processing is estimated at 11,500 tonnes of meat on the bone.
For 1979 "the total available supplies will thus be as follows :
Fresh meat :                                             800,000 tonnes

                Industrial demand for meat for processing
According to information supplied to the Commission by the Member States in
September 1978 , Community demand for meat for processing in 1979 can
estimated at 1,080,000 tonnes of meat on the bone . This figure includes
quantities required for the preparation of preserved foods as specified
in Article 14 (l)(a) of Regulation ( EEC ) No 805/68. This Latter quantity
 is estimated at 110-000 tonnes .
                                                                             • • •/•

 'Flie needs of "the processing industries , including those producing preserved
 foods referred to tin Chapter II and containing no characteristic components
 other than beef and jelly , have "been estimated at 1,080,000 tonnes of meat
 on the tone®             \
The tonnage of the supplies available from the total of home production in
1979 1 plus stocks in store at the end of 1978 suitable for processing'and
 imports under the GATT quota and ACP agreement suitable for processing has
 has been estimated at 1,020,000 tonnes of meat on the bone.'
The deficit in meat for processing in 1979 can be estimated at 60,000 tonnes
of meat on the hone .
In light of the experience gained in 1978 i"t is proposed to apportion this
tonnage , as required hy Artiole 14 ( l ) of Regulation ( EEC ) no 805/68 , so
that :
a) 30,000 tonnes of meat intended for the manufacture of preserved food
       which does not contain characteristic components other than "beef and
       jelly shall qualify for the total suspension of the levy/, and
Is) 30,000 tonnes of meat intended for the processing industry for the
       manufacture of products other than the preserved food referred to in
       (a) shall qualify for the tot,al of partial suspension of the levy.
