COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 568/76  of 15 March 1976  amending Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 on the common organization of the market in beef and veal
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 the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in beef and veal (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1855/74 (3), lays down intervention arrangements including the compulsory buying-in of beef and veal meeting certain quality requirements ; whereas, in the light of recent experience, it seems appropriate to provide for the possibility of suspending the intervention measures in regions where prices are relatively high, in order to avoid production for intervention purposes;
Whereas Article 18 of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 provides for the possibility of granting of an export refund ; whereas experience has shown that the measures taken do not always give the trade the certainty as regards amounts and periods of validity of the refunds that it requires ; whereas provision should therefore be made to allow refunds to be fixed in advance,
The following paragraph shall be inserted in Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68:
"3a. However, if during the 1976/1977 marketing year the price recorded in accordance with the preceding paragraphs on the representative markets of a Member State or of a region within a Member State is equal to or more than 95 % of the guide price during a given period, the intervention measures referred to in paragraphs 1 and 3 may be partially or totally suspended in the Member State or region concerned."
Article 18 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 shall be replaced by the following:
"4. The Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission in accordance with the voting procedure laid down in Article 43 (2) of the Treaty, shall adopt general rules for the granting and advance fixing of export refunds and lay down criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds."
This Regulation shall enter into force on 15 March 1976.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3577/90 (2), and in particular Article 7 (6) thereof,
Whereas, in view of the size of cereal production, there may be intervention storage problems in certain Member States; whereas this situation may be remedied by providing for the possibility of spreading deliveries into intervention over a period  sufficiently long to enable the necessary storage capacity to be found; whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1569/77 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1841/90 (4), should therefore be amended;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
Regulation (EEC) No 1569/77 is hereby amended as follows:
1. (Relates solely to the German version).
2. The last subparagraph of Article 3 (3) is replaced by the following:
'The final delivery shall be made not later than the end of the fourth month at the latest following the month during which the offer was received, without, however, being later than 1 July in Spain, Greece, Italy and Portugal and 31 July in the other  Member States.'
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities. This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

That historical relationship has been established in Article 2(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001 of 2 August 2001 laying down detailed rules for applying the cotton aid scheme (3). Where the world market price cannot be determined in this way, it is to be based on the most recent price determined.

To that end, an average is to be calculated of offers and quotations recorded on one or more European exchanges for a product delivered cif to a port in the Community and coming from the various supplier countries considered the most representative in terms of international trade. However, there is provision for adjusting the criteria for determining the world market price for ginned cotton to reflect differences justified by the quality of the product delivered and the offers and quotations concerned. Those adjustments are specified in Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001.
(3) The application of the above criteria gives the world market price for unginned cotton determined hereinafter,
The world price for unginned cotton as referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 is hereby determined as equalling 21,557 EUR/100 kg.

laying down general rules for the system of minimum import prices for certain processed cherries
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 426/86 of 24 February 1986 on the common organization of the market in products processed from fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2247/88 (2), and in particular Article 9 (5) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1676/85 of 11 June 1985 on the value of the unit of account and the conversion rates to be applied for the purposes of the common agricultural policy (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1636/87 (4), and in particular Article 10 (2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 426/86 provides for the application of a minimum import price for each marketing year for certain processed cherries; whereas it is necessary to lay down general rules therefor;
Whereas a consequence of the present monetary situation is that the minimum price in ECU converted into national currency on the basis of the representative rate does not attain the same price level throughout the Community; whereas that could therefore lead to distortion of competition in trade; whereas that possibility could be avoided by applying a coefficient when converting the ECU into national currency;
Whereas the contervailing charge applies only where a product does not comply with the minimum import price; whereas in such cases the charge should be equal to the difference between the import price and the minimum price,
1. The minimum import price for the processed cherries listed in Part B of Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 426/86 shall be fixed before the beginning of the marketing year.
2. The minimum import price may be fixed for the products in immediate wrappings of a determined net weight.
3. The Commission may set a monetary coefficient for adjusting the minimum price in national currency in order to prevent distortions of trade between Member States.
The minimum price to be observed for imports shall be that applicable on the day of acceptance of entry for free circulation.
1. Where the import price is less than the minimum price as specified in Article 2, a countervailing charge equal to the difference between those prices shall be levied.
2. Rules on determining the import price shall be adopted by the Commission in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 22 of Regulation (EEC) No 426/86.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the eighth day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

(4) the seriousness of the deficiencies observed during an inspection visit to Bulgaria, the imports of fishery products from this country would not be authorised and, therefore, this country shall be deleted from the list;
(5) the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,
The Annex to the present Decision replaces the Annex to the Decision 97/296/EC.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
