THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in beef and veal(1), and in particular Article 37 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 1(3) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2705/98 of 14 December 1998 on the determination of prices of adult bovine animals on representative Community markets and the survey of prices of certain other cattle in the Community(2) provides for the possibility of revising the list of representative markets and weighting coefficients in the light of how marketing and the size of the cattle population in each Member State develop. This information should therefore be updated.
(2) The planned amendments should be applied from 1 January 2001 to ensure that prices on the representative markets remain comparable over the calendar year and to allow the representative market in Spain to be changed as of 1 July 2000.
(3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
