Article 8 of Regulation (EEC ) NO 823/ 68 provides that , where Tilsit and.
Butterkaese cheeses falling within subheading 04.04 S I b) 2 are imported
into the Community at a price not less than 130 u.a. /lOO kg, the levy is
equal to the threshold price of the pilot product in Group 11 less 130 u.a.
The minimum price of 130 u.a./lOO kg was fixed on 3 March 19 / 5 when the
threshold price for Group 11 was 173.80 u.a./lOO kg. Since then, the
Community threshold price has "been increased several times , reaching
199.75 u.a./lOO kg with effect from 1 May 1977# The levy has consequently
risen from 43.80 to 69.75 u.a./lOO kg, an increase of about 60$.
Since March 19 /5 milk prices and processing costs have risen in exporting
countries such* as Austria, Finland , Romania and Switzerland .  The price of
the said cheeses should therefore "be changed in line with conditions obtaining
on the market .
