 ---pagebreak---                   EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
The French overseas departments are subject to certain provisions of the
Treaty of Rome , The first subparagraph of Article 227(2 ) of the Treaty lays down
that the provisions relating to agriculture , with the exception of those concer­
ning the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund , are applicable to
the French overseas departments .
The second subparagraph of the said paragraph however , lays down that the con­
ditions for the application of the provisions of the Treaty which are not yet
applicable in accordance with the first subparagraph are to be determined by
decisions of the Council , acting unanimously on a proposal from the Commission .
This also applies therefore to the provisions concerning the EAGGF .
In the past , the Council , on the basis of this same second subparagraph , has
provided for the financing by the EAGGF Guarantee Section of expenditure in­
curred in the overseas departments in the sugar and raw tobacco sectors .
In 1975 , the Council also adopted a Regulation providing for the financing of
a system of aid for pineapples produced in these departments .
Since the common organization of the market in cereals was established in 1967,
the Community relating thereto have been applied to the overseas departments .
As regards finance , the resulting expenditure is currently charged to the
French budget while import charges are considered as own resources entered in
the Community budget .
This system presented no major disadvantages as things stood in 1967 . Since
then , however , the situation has changed , with the development , albeit modest ,
of the milling capacity in these departments . This activity is of some impor­
tance to the economy of the departments in question . It is therefore proposed
that the provisions concerning the EAGGF Guarantee Section should apply to t "-> r
said departments also in respect of cereals .

         amending Regulation ( EEC ) N° 2727/ 75 on the common organization
             of the market in cereals
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community / and
in particular Articles1 43 and 227 thereof ,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament ,
Whereas the expenditure incurred by the Member States as a result of the obli­
gations arising out of the application of Council Regulation ( EEC ) N° 2727/ 75
of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals ( 1 ), as
last amended by Regulation ( EEC ) N° 3138/ 76 ( 2 ), is borne by the Guarantee Sec­
tion of the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund in accordance with
Articles 2 and 3 of Council Regulation ( EEC ) N° 729/ 70 of 21 April 1970 pn the
financing of the common agricultural policy ( 3 ), as last amended by Regulation
( EEC ) N° 2788/ 72 ( 3 );
Whereas , however , pursuant to Article 227(2 ) of the Treaty and in the absence of
provisions to the contrary to be adopted by the Council , this Community finan­
cing does not apply to expenditure arising from the application of Regulation
( EEC ) N° 2727/ 75 in the French overseas departments ;
Whereas, once activities develop in the cereals sector in these departments and
these activities acquire a certain importance for the local economy , it is no
longer justifiable to exclude from                Community financing the expenditure
incurred            ■fchei'e             under the Community rules applicable to the sector
concerned .
