COMMISSION  REGULATION (EC) No 1568/95 of 30 June 1995 fixing the representative prices and additional import  duties for certain products in the sugar sector
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN  COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 of 30 June 1981 on the common organization of  the market in sugar  (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1101/95  (2),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1423/95 of 23 June 1995 laying down detailed rules  for the import of products in the sugar sector other than molasses  (3), and in particular the  second subparagraph of Article 1 (2) and Article 3 (1) thereof,
Whereas Regulation (EC) No 1423/95 stipulates that the cif import price for raw sugar and white  sugar, hereinafter known as the 'representative price`, should be set in accordance with Commission  Regulation (EEC) No 784/68  (4); whereas that price should be fixed for the standard qualities  defined in Regulation (EEC) No 793/72  (5) and in Council Regulation (EEC) No 431/68  (6);
Whereas, when the representative prices are being fixed, the Commission must take account of all  available information on offers on the world market, on quotations on the exchanges which are  important for world trade in sugar, on prices recorded on important third-country markets, and on  sales concluded in international trade of which it has knowledge either directly or through the  agency of the Member States; whereas, however, pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 784/68, the  Commission must disregard information if the goods concerned are not of sound and fair marketable  quality or if the price quoted in an offer relates to a small quantity which is not representative  of the market; whereas offer prices which can be assumed not to be representative of actual market  trends must also be disregarded;
Whereas, if information on sugar of the standard quality is to be comparable, the price increases  or reductions fixed pursuant to Article 5 (1) (a) of Regulation (EEC) No 784/68 must be added to or  deducted from the offers taken into consideration in the case of white sugar; whereas, in the case  of raw sugar, the corrective factors provided for in Article 5 (1) (b) must be applied;
Whereas the representative price is modified only if the variation in the elements used to  calculate it would entail an increase or a reduction of not less than ECU 0,5 per 100 kilograms in  relation to the representative price previously fixed;
Whereas, where there is a difference between the trigger price for the product in question and the  representative price, additional import duties should be fixed under the conditions set out in  Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 1423/95;
Whereas it follows from applying these provisions that the representative prices and additional  import duties for the products in question should be as set out in the Annex hereto;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the  Management Committee for Sugar,
