of 7 October 2003
fixing, for the 2002/03 marketing year, the amount to be paid by sugar manufacturers to beet sellers in respect of the difference between the maximum amount of the B levy and the amount of that levy to be charged
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector(1), as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 680/2002(2), and in particular Article 18(5) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 18(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that when the amount of the B levy is less than the maximum amount referred to in Article 15(4) of that Regulation, revised, where necessary, in accordance with paragraph 5 of that same Article, sugar manufacturers must pay beet sellers 60 % of the difference between the maximum amount of the levy in question and the amount of the levy to be charged. Article 9(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 314/2002 of 20 February 2002 laying down detailed rules for the application of the quota system in the sugar sector(3), as amended by Regulation (EC) 1140/2003(4), provides that the amount to be paid shall be fixed at the same time as the production levies and in accordance with the same procedure.
(2) For the 2002/03 marketing year, Commission Regulation (EC) No 1440/2002(5) sets the maximum amount of the B levy at 37,5 % of the intervention price for white sugar and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1762/2003(6) fixes the amount of the B levy for sugar to be charged for the said marketing year at 19,962 % of the intervention price for white sugar. This difference requires, in accordance with Article 18(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, that the amount to be paid by sugar manufacturers to beet sellers should be fixed per tonne of beet of standard quality.
(3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The amount referred to in Article 18(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 to be paid by sugar manufacturers to beet sellers in respect of the B levy shall be fixed for the 2002/03 marketing year at EUR 8,644 per tonne of beet of the standard quality.

Whereas Article 3 (6) of Regulation No 1009/67/EEC provides that a standard quality for raw sugar must be determined;
Whereas the standard quality should correspond to an average quality which is representative of raw sugars produced in the Community ; whereas the standard quality must be determined by reference to a criterion used by the trade, in this instance yield ; whereas to determine actual yield use should be made of formulae which are sufficiently accurate and which are easy to apply;
Whereas Article 13 (3) of Regulation No 1009/67/EEC provides that a Community frontier crossing point must be fixed for the purpose of calculating the c.i.f. price for white sugar, raw sugar and molasses ; whereas the crossing point chosen should make it possible to calculate a representative c.i.f. price for the Community;
1. Raw sugar of the standard quality referred to in Article 3 (6) of Regulation No 1009/67/EEC shall be sugar with a yield of 92 %.
2. The yield of raw beet sugar shall be calculated by subtracting    (a) its percentage ash content multiplied by four;
(b) its percentage invert sugar content multiplied by two;
(c) the number 1
from the degree of polarisation of that sugar.
3. The yield of raw cane sugar shall be calculated by subtracting 100 from the degree of polarisation of that sugar multiplied by two.
