COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 1469/77  of 30 June 1977  laying down rules for applying the levy and the refund in respect of isoglucose and amending Regulation (EEC) No 192/75
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1111/77 of 17 May 1977 laying down common provisions for isoglucose (1), and in particular Article 3 (3), the second subparagraph of Article 4 (3), and Article 4 (5) thereof,
Whereas a system of export refunds is applicable to the products specified in Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 1111/77 ; whereas, therefore, Commission Regulation (EEC) No 192/75 of 17 January 1975 laying down detailed rules for the application of export refunds in respect of agricultural products (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3186/76 (3), should be extended to cover these products;
Whereas, with a view to securing uniformity of treatment, a method for establishing the dry matter content of isoglucose in trade should be determined;
Whereas under Regulation (EEC) No 1111/77 export refunds are not granted for isoglucose in the form of processed products ; whereas isoglucose and mixtures of isoglucose with other types of sugar constitute products which are relatively new and hitherto found only in small quantities on the world market ; whereas the market in these products is likely to expand appreciably in the future ; whereas, in the first instance, without prejudice to appropriate measures to be taken at a later date, the product should be defined by reference to its content of fructose, polysaccharides and other types of sugar, so that the refund may be granted only for the true product in the natural state;
Whereas the export refund in respect of glucose and sucrose syrups is fixed every month and may be fixed in advance ; whereas the same rules should be laid down in respect of refunds for isoglucose;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Isoglucose,
