COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2413/98 of 9 November 1998 on the rate of interest to be used for calculating the costs of financing intervention measures comprising buying in, storage and disposal
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1883/78 of 2 August 1978 laying down general rules for the financing of interventions by the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF), Guarantee Section (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1259/96 (2), and in particular Article 5 thereof,
Whereas Article 3 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 411/88 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1644/89 (4), lays down that the uniform interest rate used for calculating the costs of financing intervention measures is to correspond to the interest rates for the ecu for three months' and 12 months' forward rates recorded by the Statistical Office of the European Communities on the Euromarkets with a weighting of one-third and two-thirds respectively;
Whereas the Commission fixes this rate before the beginning of each EAGGF Guarantee Section accounting year on the basis of the rates recorded in the six months preceding fixing;
Whereas Article 4(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 411/88 lays down that if the rate of interest costs borne by a Member State is lower for at least six months than the uniform interest rate fixed for the Community a specific interest rate is to be fixed for that Member State; whereas the Member State notified these costs to the Commission before the end of the accounting year; whereas, where no costs are notified by a Member State, the rate to be applied is determined on the basis of the reference interest rates set out in the Annex to the said Regulation;
Whereas the interest rates for the 1999 accounting year must be set, in line with those provisions;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the EAGGF Committee,
For expenditure incurred during the 1999 EAGGF Guarantee Section accounting year:
1. the interest rate referred to in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 411/88 shall be 4,1 %;
2. the specific interest rate referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 411/88 shall be: 3,6 % for France, 3,5 % for Austria, and 3,9 % for Finland.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply with effect from 1 October 1998.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1323/96 of 26 June 1996 amending Regulation (EEC) No 1784/77 concerning the certification of hops
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1696/71 of 26 July 1971 on the common organization of the market in hops (1), and in particular Article 2 (4) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1784/77 (2) specifies the stage at which certification must be carried out and lays down the conditions under which hop products may undergo further processing;
Whereas, in the former German Democratic Republic, the treatment of hops after harvest is traditionally different from that in other parts of the Community in the sense that, on numerous farms producing hops, cleaning and initial drying of cones is carried out at the same time as milling and pressing into granules, existing equipment not permitting separation of the two stages; whereas this procedure does not, however, conform to Community legislation, which lays down that certification must take place before any processing; whereas, to enable producers to spread their new investment over a suitable period, Regulation (EEC) No 1784/77 laid down a transitional period longer than that provided for by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2239/91 of 26 July 1991 on transitional measures applicable in the hop sector after the unification of Germany (3), which expired on 31 December 1992; whereas, by 31 December 1995, the situation had not been regularized on certain farms; whereas therefore the said derogation should be extended by one year and the list of farms concerned should be amended accordingly,
Regulation (EEC) No 1784/77 is hereby amended as follows:
1. In the second subparagraph of Article 1 (3), '31 December 1995` shall be replaced by '31 December 1996`.
2. The Annex shall be replaced by the Annex set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply from 1 January 1996.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 2220/89
of 18 July 1989
amending for the eighth time Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86 laying down certain technical measures for the conservation of fishery resources
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 170/83 of 25 January 1983 establishing a Community system for the conservation and management of fishery resources (1), as amended by the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Article 11 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 170/83 states that the conservation measures necessary to achieve the aims set out in Article 1 of the same Regulation must be formulated in the light of the available scientific advice;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86 (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 4193/88 (3), lays down general rules for the fishing and landing of biological resources found in Community waters;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 4193/88 laid down a new definition for the length of beams used by beam trawlers; whereas this would have had the effect of reducing the effective length of beams which it is permitted to use in the coastal zone; whereas, in order to maintain the same effective length, it is necessary to increase the nominal permitted length,
In Article 9 (3) (c) and in the third subparagraph of Article 9 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 3094/86, 'eight' is hereby replaced in each cause by 'nine'.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply with effect from 1 July 1989.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

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 20,850 EUR/100 kg.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 August 2005.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
