Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1735/93 of 30 June 1993 amending and correcting Regulations (EEC) No 1913/92 and (EEC) No 2255/92 laying down detailed implementing rules for the specific measures for supplying the Azores and Madeira with products from the beef and veal sector

COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 1735/93 of 30 June 1993 amending and correcting Regulations (EEC) No 1913/92 and (EEC) No 2255/92 laying down detailed implementing rules for the specific measures for supplying the Azores and Madeira with products from the beef and veal sector
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1600/92 of 15 June 1992 introducing specific measures for the Azores and Madeira concerning certain agricultural products (1), as amended by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3714/92 (2), and in particular Article 10 thereof,
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1600/92 provides for the establishment, for the beef and veal sector and for the period 1 July 1993 to 30 June 1994, of the quantities of the specific supply balances for the Azores and Madeira with beef and veal, male bovines for fattening and pure-bred breeding animals;
Whereas the quantities of products benefiting from the specific supply arrangements must be determined within the framework of periodic forecast supply balances which may be adjusted on the basis of the essential requirements of the markets and taking account of local production and traditional trade flows; whereas to ensure coverage of requirements in terms of quantity, price and quality and to ensure that the proportion of products supplied from the Community is preserved, the aid to be granted for products originating in the rest of the Community must be determined on terms equivalent, for the end user, to the advantage resulting from exemption from import duties on imports of products from third countries;
Whereas Article 5 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 1600/92 provides for the number of imported bovines for fattening to be determined degressively to take account of the development of local production; whereas, owing to the increasing local consumption of beef and veal linked to the development of tourism which has led to an increase in the supply balance quantities for the 1992/93 marketing year, a degree of degressivity should be applied during the period 1 July 1993 to 30 June 1994 which takes account of these local market needs;
Whereas, contrary to Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 1600/92, the various language versions of Article 1 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1913/92 of 10 July 1992 laying down detailed implementing rules for the specific measures for supplying the Azores and Madeira with products from the beef and veal sector (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 732/93 (4), with the exception of the French version, do not explicitly cover the case of exemption from both the customs duty and the import levy; whereas in order to rectify this situation the texts in question should be corrected and made applicable from 1 July 1992;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
