Whereas:
(1) Article 11(5) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1276/2008 (2) and Annex II to that Regulation correspond respectively, according to the correlation table in Annex IX to that Regulation, to Article 3(2) and to Article 1 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 3122/94 of 20 December 1994 laying down criteria for risk analysis as regards agricultural products receiving refunds (3). In particular, point (a) of Article 11(5) of Regulation (EC) No 1276/2008 corresponds to the first indent of Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 3122/94. However, where that first indent of Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 3122/94 refers to criteria set out in the complete second paragraph of Article 1 of that Regulation, Article 11(5)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1276/2008 refers to only the criteria set out in point 1 of Annex II thereto.
(2) As the notification about risk analysis should cover all relevant risk elements, like it was already set out in Regulation (EC) No 3122/94, the limitation to point 1 of Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1276/2008 in Article 11(5)(a) of that Regulation should be accordingly corrected.

fixing the export refunds on syrups and certain other sugar products exported without further processing
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

(2) Given the present situation on the sugar market, export refunds should therefore be fixed in accordance with the rules and certain criteria provided for in Articles 32 and 33 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006.
(3) The first subparagraph of Article 33(2) of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 provides that the world market situation or the specific requirements of certain markets may make it necessary to vary the refund according to destination.
(4) Refunds should be granted only on products that are allowed to move freely in the Community and that comply with the requirements of Commission Regulation (EC) No 951/2006 of 30 June 2006 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 as regards trade with third countries in the sugar sector (2).
(5) Export refunds may be set to cover the competitive gap between Community and third country's exports. Community exports to certain close destinations and to third countries granting Community products a preferential import treatment are currently in a particular favourable competitive position. Therefore, refunds for exports to those destinations should be abolished.
(6) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
1.   Export refunds as provided for in Article 32 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 shall be granted on the products and for the amounts set out in the Annex to this Regulation subject to the conditions provided for in paragraph 2 of this Article.
