THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 of 30 June 1992 on the common organisation of the market in cereals(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1253/1999(2), and in particular Article 13 thereof and the corresponding provisions of the other regulations on the common organisation of markets in agricultural products,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1230/1999(4), establishes, on the basis of the Combined Nomenclature, an agricultural product nomenclature for export refunds;
(2) to facilitate the electronic transmission of the data and so reduce costs, the regulations fixing the export refunds for each sector should be presented in a more uniform manner. To this end, the destinations or stable groupings of countries common to several market organisations should be codified and that codification should be inserted into Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87;
(3) in addition to the codes for the destinations or stable groupings of countries, codes for third countries are listed in the nomenclature of countries and territories for the Community's statistics for foreign trade and for trade between the Member States. Sectoral regulations may also contain codes for groupings of countries;
(4) the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of all the Management Committees concerned,
