1 * Under Article 55 ( 2) of the Act concerning the Conditions of Accession
    and the Adjustments to the Treaties , the "accession" compensatory amounts
    for these products for which intervention prices are fixed in the New Member
    States are to equal the difference "between the prices fixed for the new
    Member State concerned and the common prices . As regards cereals , these
    previsions apply to common wheat and barley for which intervention prices
    are fixed in all the new Member States#
    She intervention prices having served as a basis for the calculation of
    the "accession" compensatory amounts are fixed in Regulation (EEC ) No 1151/76
    of Council of 17 May 1976 .      '     ;;
2. In respect of these cereals for whioh no intervention prioes have been
    fixed in the new Member States , the rules for the calculation and alignment
     of compensatory amounts , were , pursuant to the Act of Accession , laid down
    by Council Regulation (EEC ) No 2757/75 whereby the compensatory amounts for
    these products are to be calculated by applying coefficients to the compen­
     satory amounts that are valid for the reference cereal .    These coefficients
    were determined on the basis of prices or prices ratios in the new Member
    States ,. Accordingly , Article 2 ( 2 ) of the said Regulation pr6vides for a
    progressive adjustment of these coefxMcients in accordance with the time­
    table laid down in Artiole 52 ( 2) of the Aot (6 stages ), alignment , that
    is , With the existing ratie between Community threshold prices .    The appli­
    cation of a coefficient to the compensatory amount which is fixed for the
    reference cereal , taking into account the variations in common prioes , and
    the progressiva alignment of the coefficients with the threshold price ratie
    for the new marketing year , constitute rules which enable the fourth stage
    of alignment to be achieved,          -

 amending Regulation (ESC ) Ko 2757/75 as regards the accession compensatory
 amounts and coefficients to "be applied thereto for cereals
 THE COUNCIL OP THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
 Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
 Having regard to the Act of Accession           and in particular Article 62 ( l )
 thereof ,
 Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
 Whereas the compensatory amounts which are applicable until 31 July 1976 for
 common wheat and barley were fixed by Article 1 of Council Regulation (EEC) No
 2757/75 of 29 October 1975 laying down general rules for the system of accession
 compensatory amounts for cereals           whereas Article 55 ( 2 ) of the said Act
provides that these amounts shall correspond to the difference between the prices
fixed for the new Member State concerned and the common prices ;
 Whereas , Article 52 thereof provides that the prices
 established in the new Mesnbsr States shall be aligned with the level of the common
prioes in six stages; whereas , for the marketing year 1976/77 » this alignment
produces the prices for common wheat and barley which are the subject of Council
Regulation (EEC) Mb 1151 /76 of 17 May                 1976 determining for the 1976/77
marketing year the prioes for oereals and rice             whereas , in accordance with
Artiole '55 ( 2) of the said Act , the difference between these prices and the
common prioes constitutes the aooession compensatory amount that is valid for the
new mariceting year*                         • -

      •          J
Whereas Counoil Regulation (EEC) No 2757/75 did not fix the compensatory amounts
for certain categories of cereals , but coefficients to be applied to the compensatory
amount for the reference cereal ; whereas under Article 2 ( 2 ) thereof these
coefficients are to be progressively aligned ,                           !
