Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2194/81 of 27 July 1981 laying down the general rules for the system of production aid for dried figs and dried grapes (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2057/84 (4), and in particular Article 14 thereof,
Whereas Article 10 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 2194/81 provides for financial compensation for dried figs and dried grapes; whereas Article 9 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2425/81 of 20 August 1981 laying down detailed rules for the application of the system of aid for dried grapes and dried figs (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3334/83 (6), provides for the payment of financial compensation for the quantity of products sold;
