COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 1209/84
of 27 April 1984
fixing for the 1984/85 marketing year the guide prices for wine
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 337/79 of 5 February 1979 on the common organization of the market in wine (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1208/84 (2), and in particular Article 2 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (3),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (4),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (5),
Whereas, when the guide prices for the various types of table wine are fixed, account should be taken both of the objectives of the common agricultural policy and of the contribution which the Community wishes to make to the harmonious development of world trade; whereas the objectives of the common agricultural policy are, in particular, to ensure a fair standard of living for the agricultural community, to ensure that supplies are available and that they reach consumers at reasonable prices;
Whereas it is therefore essential not to increase the present gap between production and demand; whereas, accordingly, the guide prices for the 1984/85 wine year should be fixed at a level slightly lower than that adopted for 1983/84;
Whereas the guide prices must be fixed for each type of table wine representative of Community production as defined in Council Regulation (EEC) No 340/79 (6),
