                            EXPLANATORY MIMORANIXJM
          Among the proposals which the Commission presented to the Council
on the fixing of prices for certain agricultural products and certain
related measures (CCM(77)525 final of 8 December 1977 ) is a proposal for a
Council regulation amending Regulation ( EEC ) N O 2511 /69 laying down special
measures for improving the production and marketing of Community citruB
fruit and Regulation ( EEC ) No 1035/72 on the common organization of the
market in fruit and vegetables ; this proposal provides for the maintenance
for two marketing years of the granting of financial compensation .
The Commission must therefore propose the extension over the same period
of the suspension of the application of the agreed price for imports of
fresh citrus fruits into the Community pursuant to certain agreements
concluded with the Mediterranean countries .
          The Commission therefore proposes to the Council :
- that Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 471 /76 of 24 February 1976 » as last
amended by Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 1389/77 of 21 June 1977 t suspending
application of the condition on prices governing the importation into the
Community of fresh lemons originating in certain* Mediterranean countries
be extended until 31 May 1980.

 5.* O?RIIOD OP CALCULATION Experience regarding the application of the conventional price
                                system has shown that exporting countries attempt to keep to
                                the conventional pr^ce to avoid paying certain customs duties .
                                Extension of the suspension of this system would not , therefore ,
                                have a substantial effect on the imposition of customs duties .
