A proposal has already been forwarded to the Council for the amendment of
Regulation ( EEC) NO Hll/77 laying down common provisions for isoglucose ,
so as to allow refunds to "be granted on the export of isoglucose contained
in certain processed agricultural products ( e.g. confectionery , soft
drinks ).
The general rules for granting export refunds for such processed products
are laid down in Regulation ( EEC) No 2682/72. In order to implement
the proposed amendment to Regulation ( EEC ) NO llll/77i certain amendments
are also necessary to Regulation ( EEC) NO 2682/72 , so as to add isoglucose
to the "basic products for which an export refund may "be granted when such
basic products are incorporated in processed agricultural products .
Such is the aim of this regulation , the financial consequences of which
should be negligible , since export refunds are at present paid on sugar ,
the product which isoglucose will replace .

             amending Regulation (EEC ) No 2682/ 72 laying down ge­
             neral rules for granting export refunds on certain
             agricultural products exported in the form of goods
             not covered "by Annex II to the Treaty , and the criteria
                     for fixing the amount of such refunds
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community ,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC ) NO 1111/77 ( L ) OF 17 May 1977
laying down common provisions for isoglucose , as last amended by Regulation
(EEC) No       hi ( 2 );
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Annex A to Council Regulation (EEC ) No 2682/72 ( 3 ), as last amended
by Regulation (EEC ) N o          (4)1 lists the basic products to which export
refunds are applicable when such products are exported in the form of certain
goods not covered by Annex II to the Treaty ;
Whereas isoglucose is not included in this list of basic products ,
Whereas Regulation (EEC ) No 1111/77 provides for the possibility of granting
a refund on exports to third countries of isoglucose used in the manufacture
of such goods ;
Whereas in order to implement this provision it is therefore necessary to
add isoglucose to the list of basic products in Annex A to Regulation (EEC )
No 2682/72 , and to make other amendments to the text of that Regulation ;
