COMMISSION  REGULATION (EEC) No 65/82
of 13 January 1982
laying down detailed rules for carrying forward sugar to the following marketing year
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 of 30 June 1981 on the common organization of the markets in the sugar sector (1), and in particular Articles 27 (3), 32 (3) and 48 thereof,
Whereas Article 27 of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 provides that each undertaking shall be free to decide to carry forward the whole or part of its sugar production outside its A quota to the next marketing year to be treated as part of that year's production; whereas, in view of the possibility that a sugar-producing undertaking might decide to carry forward the whole of its production outside its A quota, the beet producers concerned should be closely involved in that decision by means of an inter-trade agreement, covering this point, within the meaning of Council Regulation (EEC) No 206/68 of 20 February 1968 laying down outline provisions for contracts and inter-trade agreements on the purchase of beet (2), as last amended by the Act of Accession of Greece; whereas relations between the cane sugar manufacturers and the cane producers in the French overseas departments are the concern of the joint committee of the factory concerned; whereas, therefore, the prior assent of that committee is necessary for the carry-forward of cane sugar;
Whereas the concept of carrying forward can apply only to sugar which has in fact been produced; whereas it is therefore appropriate to provide that an undertaking may take a decision to carry forward only in respect of that sugar outside its quota A whose production has been verified by the Member State concerned and to establish the rules for such verification, in particular as regards the information to be supplied for this purpose by the undertaking;
Whereas the second subparagraph of Article 27 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 provides for a charge to be levied on any sugar carried forward which is disposed of during the obligatory storage period of 12 consecutive months; whereas, in addition, the disposal of such sugar during that period justifies, as in the case of all other sugar disposed of, the levying of an additional amount equal to the storage levy referred to under (a) of the third subparagraph of Article 8 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81;
Whereas the present Regulation is intended to replace Commission Regulation (EEC) No 103/69 of 20 January 1969 laying down detailed rules for carrying forward part of one year's sugar production to the following marketing year (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 144/69 (4);
Whereas beet producers in Greece do not yet have specific trade organizations to represent them; whereas, therefore, a transitional measure should be provided for carrying forward sugar from the 1981/82 marketing year,
Whereas the Management Committee for Sugar has not delivered an opinion within the period set by its chairman,
