THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 of 17 December 1992 on the common organization of the market in fishery and aquaculture products (1), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 697/93 (2), and in particular Article 21 (5) thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3900/92 (3) fixes the maximum quantities of preserved products manufactured from certain species of tuna and bonito which may be imported into the Community in 1993 at 74 100 tonnes;
Whereas the Federal Republic of Germany subsequently notified the Commission of a correction to the quantities of the products concerned imported in 1991, which is the reference year for the purposes of calculating quantities which may be imported;  whereas that correction involves an increase of 1 164 tonnes;
Whereas, as a consequence, the quantities of the products concerned authorized for import in 1993 should also be adjusted proportionately, after the correction has been made by applying the rate of increase in accordance with the method laid down in
Article 21
(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 and Regulation (EEC) No 3900/92 should be amended accordingly;
Whereas the increase in the quantities available enables rights to import to be reopened for the operators referred to in Article 3 (1) (b) of Regulation (EEC) No 3900/92; whereas, however, given the small quantities available for those operators,  special rules for allocating them should be laid down by way of an exception;
Whereas the Management Committee for Fishery Products could not express an opinion as regards the measures provided for in this Regulation within the time required by its President,
