Whereas Denmark has requested authorisation to apply these differential rates from 1 January 1998 at the earliest; whereas the Council is to review their application on the basis of a report from the Commission non later than 31 December 1999, when the authorisation granted by this Decision expires,
In accordance with Article 8(4) of Directive 92/81/EEC, Denmark is authorised until 31 December 1999 to apply differential rates of excise duty on petrol to reflect different environmental categories provided that these differential rates are in accordance with the obligations laid down in Council Directive 92/82/EEC of 19 October 1992 on the approximation of the rates of excise duties on mineral oils (2), and in particular the minimum rates of excise duty provided for in Articles 3 and 4 thereof.

Whereas:
(1) In accordance with Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, a world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined periodically from the price for ginned cotton recorded on the world market and by reference to the historical relationship between the price recorded for ginned cotton and that calculated for unginned cotton. 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.
(2) In accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, the world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined in respect of a product of specific characteristics and by reference to the most favourable offers and quotations on the world market among those considered representative of the real market trend. 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 EUR 20,486/100 kg.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 10 July 2004.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
