COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 1250/79  of 26 June 1979  fixing countervailing charges on seeds
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71 of 26 October 1971 on the common organization of the market in seeds (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 234/79 (2), and in particular Article 6 (5) thereof,
Whereas Article 6 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71 provides that where the free-at-frontier offer price, plus customs duties, for a type of hybrid maize for sowing and coming from a non-member country, is lower than the corresponding reference price, a countervailing charge shall be levied on imports of the hybrid from that country, subject to obligations resulting from binding under GATT ; whereas the countervailing charge is equal to the difference between the reference price and the free-at-frontier price plus customs duties;
Whereas the reference prices for the 1979/80 marketing year for hybrid maize for sowing were fixed in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1249/79 (3);
Whereas the free-at-frontier offer prices for each country of provenance are determined using all available relevant information ; whereas such relevant information is defined in Article 1 (1), (2) and (3) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1665/72 (4) ; whereas Article 3 of the same Regulation provides that the free-at-frontier offer prices for each country of provenance shall be determined from the most favourable purchasing opportunities for the products in question calculated in accordance with Articles 1 and 2 of the Regulation ; whereas information on offers which have no economic effect on the market in particular because of the insignificant quantities for which they are made are to be disregarded for the purpose of calculating these prices;
Whereas pursuant to Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 1665/72, an adjustment must be made in the case of price information relating to a stage other than free-at-Community-frontier ; whereas pursuant to Article 4 (2) of that Regulation, the countervailing charge must be amended where a significant variation in the free-at-frontier offer price is recorded;
Whereas, as a result of the application of the aforementioned provisions to the information currently available to the Commission, the countervailing charge in respect of certain types of hybrid is to be fixed at the amounts indicated in the Annex to this Regulation;
Whereas, consequently, Commission Regulation (EEC) No 68/79 (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 962/79 (6), which fixed the countervailing charges for the preceding period, should be repealed;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Seeds,
The countervailing charges on seeds are fixed as shown in the Annex hereto.
Regulation (EEC) No 68/79 is hereby repealed.

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 288/82 of 5 February 1982 on common rules for imports (1), amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1243/86 (2), and in particular Article 10 (3) thereof,
Having consulted the committee set up under that Regulation,
Whereas the precarious situation of the Community titanium processing industry, with a rate of utilization of production capacity of less than 50 % in the period from 1983 to 1985, is mainly the result of the differences of access between the European markets on the one hand and the North American and Japanese markets on the other;
Whereas any solution with a view to stabilizing world trade in processed products of titanium requires improved knowledge of the technical structure of such trade, notably the specific characteristics of products released for free circulation in the Community,
(1) Imports released for free circulation in the Community of titanium semi-finished products falling within subheading ex 81.04 K II, corresponding to NIMEXE code 81.04-59, 61 and 63, and originating in third countries, shall be subject to retospective Community surveillance in accordance with the procedures set out in Articles 10 and 14 of Regulation (EEC) No 288/82 and in this Regulation.
(2) The information to be communicated by Member States as required by Article 14 of Regulation (EEC) No 288/82 shall comprise the following:
(a) detailed technical description of the product plus indication of the NIMEXE subheading and of the country of origin and the country of consignment;

Whereas provision should be made for informing the Commission of imports into Spain of the said products under the quota fixed and of the measures taken by Spain for the application of these quotas;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,
The quotas to be opened by Spain for the period 1 January to 31 December 1987 for products of the wine sector from third countries shall be 38 500 hl.
