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 the proposal from the Commission (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 525/77 (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2990/78 (4) introduced a special production aid system for tinned pineapple which takes into account both the geographical location and the features peculiar to the production concerned which is found only in a particular French overseas department; whereas that Regulation should be amended in the light of the experience gained with that product and the aid system introduced for certain Mediterranean products pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 516/77 (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 988/84 (6);
Whereas, in view of the geographical location and the features peculiar to this production, the minimum price payable to the producer should reflect the trend of costs in the region; whereas the processing costs taken into account for the first fixing of the aid should be determined in the light of the rate of inflation in the production area in question,
