Whereas Article 3 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71 provides that the aid shall be fixed, taking  into account, on the one hand, the need to ensure a balance between the volume of production  required in the Community and the possible outlets for that production and, on the other hand, the  prices of the products on external markets;

Whereas, in the case of products falling within CN code 2523, originating in Poland, the reference base is fixed at ECU 7 464 000; whereas that reference base was reached on 15 May 1991 by charges of imports into the Community of the products in  question originating in Poland; whereas the exchange of information organized by the Commission has demonstrated that continuance of the preference threatens to cause economic difficulties in a region of the Community; whereas, therefore, customs duties  for the products in question must be re-established with regard to Poland,
