 1 . Following the Council Decision to increase the target price and basic intervention
     prices for the 1977/ 78 marketing year by 3.5 % for colza and rape seed and by
      7.5 % for sunflower seed , the following must also be established for the same
     year :
     - the main intervention centres and the derived intervention prices applicable
        thereof ;
     - the compensatory amounts applicable to colza and rape seed harvested in Denmark
        and the United Kingdom .
2 . The intervention prices have been amended to take into account the necessity to
     facilitate the supply to the Italian market of these seeds on the one hand , and
     on the other , the changes that have occurred in transport costs . At the request
     of the French delegation , the centre at Marseille has been abolished , and a
     centre at La Pal lice has been added for both kinds of seed , and a centre at
     Strasbourg for sunflower seed .
3 . Article 52 of the Act concerning the Conditions of Accession and the Adjustments
     to the Treaties provides that the derived intervention prices applicable in
     Denmark and the United Kingdom should be gradually aligned with the levels of
     the common prices . Therefore , the difference between the common prices and the
     prices ruling in the    United Kingdom                 should be reduced by one half ,
     and accordingly the compensatory amounts applicable thereto reduced , for
     the period from 1 July to 31 December 1977 . From 1 January 1978 the accession
     compensatory amounts shall no longer be applied .
     For colza and rapeseed harvested in Denmark the compensatory amount is minimal
     and is therefore abolished from 1 July 1977 , in accordance with the provisions
     of Article 55 ( 4 ) of the abovementioned Act .
A. Financial implications
     ThiS proposal is a normal consequence of the annual price decisions . There art
     no financial implications other than those already taken into account in connec
     tion with the price proposals ( doc . C0M(77 ) 150 def . )

                       REGULATION ( EEC ) OF THE COUNCIL
on compensatory amounts for colza and rape seed
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
                                         (2)
Whereas Regulation ( EEC ) No 1463/ 76        fixed the compensatory amounts to
be deducted from the subsidy or the export refund for colza and rape seed
harvested in Denmark and the United Kingdom during the 1976/ 77 crop year
and placed under control at the oil mill or exported during that year ;
Whereas , in accordance with Article 52 of the Act of Accession , for the crop
year 1977/ 78 the derived intervention prices applicable in Denmark and the
United Kingdom are to move towards alignment with the common prices ; whereas
the compensatory amount applicable in the United Kingdom during the period
1 July to 31 December 1977 should therefore be reduced accordingly ; whereas
however , in the case of Denmark the application of the said Article results in
a minimal accession coirpensatory amount , and whereas , therefore , in accordance
with Article 55(4 ) of the Act no such amount should be fixed .

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
Whereas , in accordance with Article 22 ( 2 ) of Regulation No 136/ 66/ EEC , the main
intervention centres for colza , rape seed and sunflower seed , and the derived
intervention prices applicable thereat must be fixed for the marketing year 1977/ 78
Whereas the places with the largest markets situated in the main production areas
should be taken 'as the main intervention centres ; whereas , to ensure an appropriate
price level for Community seed in deficit areas , the most representative places for
the processing of seeds should also be used , as well as places situated outside
production areas which are representative as regards internal trade and the export
of seed ;
Whereas , in accordance with Article 24 of Regulation No 136/ 66/ EEC , derived inter­
vention prices must be fixed at a level permitting seed to move freely within the
Community , under natural conditions of price formation and in accordance with
the needs of the market ; whereas , to that end , intervention prices should be fixed
so that the differences between them correspond to the price differences to be
expected in the case of a normal harvest ;
Whereas the derived intervention prices for the 1976/ 77 marketing year were fixed
 in Denmark and the United Kingdom at a level lower than the common level ; whereas
these prices should move towards alingment with the common prices , in accordance
 with Article 52 of the Act of Accession ;
