,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organisation of the market in pigmeat (1), and in particular Article 4(6) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2123/89 of 14 July 1989 establishing the list of representative markets for pigmeat in the Community (2) has been substantially amended several times (3). In the interests of clarity and rationality the said Regulation should be codified.
(2) Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 provides for determination of the Community market price of slaughtered pigs from prices recorded on the representative markets.
(3) In order to enable Article 4(2) of that Regulation to be applied, a list of representative markets must be drawn up. Reference must be made in fixing the prices of pig carcases to quotations obtained directly from the markets or from the slaughterhouses, as well as from quotations established in the quotation centres and of which the entirety forms a representative market for each Member State.
(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Pigmeat,
