COMMISSION  REGULATION (EEC) No 1258/87
of 6 May 1987
derogating from Regulation (EEC) No 1729/78 laying down detailed rules of application in respect of the production refund for sugar used in the chemical industry
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), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 229/87 (2), and in particular Article 9 (6) thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1729/78 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3834/86 (4), makes the issue of the production refund certificate conditional upon certain administrative procedures; whereas, by reason in particular of the time necessary for the Member States to implement the new arrangements applicable as from 1 July 1986, those procedures have not always been completed in good time, particularly the possible approval of processors, the verification of information to be provided in the application for the refund certificate and the lodging of the security; whereas the competent Member State authorities have found themselves for this reason sometimes unable to issue the refund certificate without a period of delay; whereas the processors cannot for this reason be held responsible for non-compliance with some of the provisions of Regulation (EEC) No 1729/78; whereas a transitional period should consequently be established enabling the processors, in so far as the administrative controls can be completed in a satisfactory manner, to benefit from the refund in those cases where the basic product has been processed before the application for the certificate; whereas it is appropriate to provide for a period covering the first six months of the 1986/87 marketing year;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
