THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Communitiy,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Article 251 (1)  thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation No 569/86 of 25 February 1986 laying down general rules for the  application of the supplementary mechanism applicable to trade (STM)  (1), as last amended by  Regulation (EEC) No 3296/88  (2), and in particular Article 7 (1) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3792/85 of 20 December 1985 laying down the  arrangements applying to trade in agricultural products between Spain and Portugal  (3), as amended  by Regulation (EEC) No 3296/88, and in particular Article 13 thereof,
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 3659/90  (4) has specified the list of products submitted to  transition by stage which are subject to the STM from the beginning of the second stage;
Whereas Article 5 (2) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3792/85 of 20 December 1985 specifies that the  imports from Spain of these products are submitted to the STM according to Articles 249 and 252 of  the Act of Accession;
Whereas the indicative ceilings on imports into Portugal of certain products of the eggs and  poultrymeat sectors listed in the Annex to this Regulation are laid down on the basis of the  provisional balance sheet established in application of Article 251 of the Act of Accession and on  taking account in particular of the traditional trade volumes of imports into Portugal as well as  the necessity for a progressive opening up of the Portuguese market;
Whereas it is appropriate to foresee that Community operators can only export certain products in  the eggs
and poultrymeat sectors to Portugal under certain restrictive conditions concerning in  particular the period during which they have engaged in their commerce; whereas it is appropriate  to derogate from that rule for 1991 to benefit those operators situated in the territory of the  former German Democratic Republic in order to allow them to export those products to Portugal;
Whereas to lay down detailed rules for the application for the issue of licences it is necessary to  derogate from both Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88 of 16 November 1988 laying down common  detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences and advance fixing  certificates for agricultural products  (5), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1599/90  (6), and  Commission Regulation (EEC) No 574/86 of 28 February 1986 laying down detailed rules for the  application of the STM(7), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3296/88;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the  Management Committee for Eggs and Poultrymeat,
