COUNCIL REGULATION  (EEC) N° 1188/90
of 7 May 1990
fixing the guide price and the intervention price for adult bovine  animals for the 1990/91 marketing year
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article  43 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) N° 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of  the market in beef and veal (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 571/89 (2), and in  particular Article 3 (3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (3),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (4),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (5),
Whereas, when the guide price for adult bovine animals is fixed, account should be taken both of  the objectives of the common agricultural policy and of the contribution which the Community wishes  to make to the harmonious development of world trade; whereas the common agricultural policy aims  inter alia at ensuring a fair standard of living for the agricultural community, at guaranteeing  the availability of supplies and at ensuring that supplies reach consumers at reasonable prices;
Whereas the guide price must be fixed in accordance with
the criteria laid down in Article 3 (2) of  Regulation (EEC)
N° 805/68;
Whereas, in accordance with Regulation (EEC) N° 805/68, the Community scale for the classification  of carcases of
adult bovine animals, established under Regulation (EEC)
N° 1208/81 (6), is  applicable for buying in; whereas it is therefore appropriate to fix the intervention price per 100  kilograms carcase weight for the categories of animal eligible for intervention by referring to a  reference quality defined in accordance with the said scale; whereas, in addition, since these are  increasingly comparable in terms of their trade value, a single intervention price should be fixed  for the said categories of animal and it should be maintained at the level laid down for the  previous marketing year,
