Commission Regulation (EC) No 2527/94 of 19 October 1994 amending Regulation (EEC) No 3567/92 as regards detailed rules for the application of the individual limits, national reserves and transfer of rights in the sheepmeat and goatmeat sector

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2527/94 of 19 October 1994 amending Regulation (EEC) No 3567/92 as regards detailed rules for the application of the individual limits, national reserves and transfer of rights in the sheepmeat and goatmeat sector
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89 of 25 September 1989 on the common organization of the market in sheepmeat and goatmeat (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1886/94 (2), and in particular Article 5a (4) and 5b (4) thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3567/92 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1720/94 (4), provides for certain rules with respect to the transfer of premium rights and the distribution of rights from the reserve;
Whereas, in order to avoid inequality of treatment between producers who have received premium rights free of charge from the national reserve and other producers, provision should be made, on the one hand, for the possibility of Article 6 (1) of  Regulation (EEC) No 3567/92 not being applied to those producers who have received rights free of charge from the national reserve, in exceptional duly justified cases and, on the other hand, for a certain tolerance with regard to the current rule  according to which such producers must avail themselves of all their rights in the course of three marketing years;
Whereas, in order to ensure better mobilization of the premium rights which are available but not used by producers, the minimum thresholds for rights which may be transferred or temporarily leased should also be lowered;
Whereas experience gained as regards the administration of transfers and temporary leases of premium rights shows that, where appropriate, Member States should be allowed to set a deadline for notifying the competent authorities of such transfers and  temporary leases which is as close as possible to the date on which producers submit their premium applications; whereas it is also necessary to alter accordingly the deadline for the competent authorities to notify the producers concerned of the new  limits determined as a result of the said transfers and temporary leases;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3567/92 should be amended accordingly;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sheepmeat and Goatmeat,
