COMMISSION  REGULATION (EEC) No 1587/85
of 12 June 1985
amending for the 1985/1986 marketing year Regulation (EEC) No 750/85 applying quality class III to certain fruit
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 of 18 May 1972 on the common organization of the market in fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1332/84 (2), and in particular Article 4 (1) thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 379/71 of 19 February 1971 laying down common quality standards for citrus fruit (3) laid down a class III for the products concerned;
Whereas, pursuant to the first subparagraph of Article 4 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72, the quality class III may be applied only if the products concerned are needed to meet consumer demand; whereas, this need, which has already been recognized for a limited period for table grapes, cherries and strawberries by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 750/85 (4), also appears to exist at present for lemons of the 'verdelli' type; whereas, in view of the considerable fluctuations in production from one marketing year to another, the period of application of quality class III should be limited;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fruit and Vegetables,
