        Arising from Council discussion on the fixing of prices for certain
agricultural products and certain related measures ( C0MC82 ) 10 final ) the
Commission was required to put forward a proposal providing for the maintenance
for the marketing year 1982/ 83 of the granting of financial compensation for
lemons . 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
lemons into the Community pursuant to certain agreements concluded with the
Mediterranean countries .

( EEC ) No 471 / 76 of 24 February 1976 , as last amended by Council Regulation ( EEC )
No 2010 / 81 , suspending application of the condition on prices governing the
importation into the Community of fresh lemons originating in certain

     Experience acquired during the application of the system of the conventional                                   .
      price showed that the exporting countries concerned try to observe the conven­
      tional price in order to avoid having to pay all the custums duties on import .
      Since 1976 the Community has refrained from applying this system in respect of
      certain Mediterranean countries . Renewal of the suspension of this system for
      a further year therefore involves no significant effect on receipts from custom
      duties. Imports of fresh lemons originating in these countries amounted to :
