COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 1523/91  of 5 June 1991  on the adjustment of the entry price for table grapes originating in Cyprus
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3488/89 of 21 November 1989 laying down the method of decision for certain provisions laid down for agricultural products in the framework of Mediterranean agreements (1), and in particular Article 2 thereof,
Whereas, in accordance with the agreements concluded with various Mediterranean third countries, the Commission may decide to adjust the entry price of certain fruit and vegetables originating in those countries taking account of the annual reviews of  trade flows by product and country pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) No 451/89 of 20 February 1989 concerning the procedure to be applied to certain agricultural products originating in various Mediterranean third countries (2);
Whereas an examination of the outlook for export flows of table grapes originating in Cyprus in the light of the overall trend on the Community market effectively results in the entry price for those products being adjusted;
Whereas the adjustment of the entry price must relate to the amount to be deducted for customs duties from the representative prices recorded in the Community for the calculation of the entry price for table grapes referred to in Article 24 of Council  Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 of 18 May 1972 on the common organization of the market in fruit and vegetables (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3920/90 (4); whereas a reduction of one third is likely to meet the desired objective; whereas that  reduction for the period 8 June to 4 August within the limit of given quantities pursuant to the Mediterranean agreements must only apply, however, from 21 July, the date of entry into force of the reference price for table grapes;
Whereas, in order to ensure that this system is effective, the trend in imports of such products must be monitored; whereas, in this respect, quantities of table grapes imported within the 1991 tariff quota are to be the subject of statistical  monitoring under the administration of the latter pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3347/90 (5); whereas quantities imported outside that quota and up to 10 500 tonnes should be made subject to Community surveillance;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fruit and Vegetables,
