COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1216/2004

fixing the derived intervention prices for white sugar for the 2004/05 marketing year

(2) Article 2(1)(b) of that Regulation provides that derived intervention prices for white sugar are to be fixed for each deficit area each year. When those prices are fixed, account is to be taken of the regional variations in the price of sugar, which, given a normal harvest and free movement of sugar, may be expected to occur under natural conditions of price formation on the market and in view of experience gained and the costs of transporting sugar from surplus areas to deficit areas.
(3) To establish whether an area is a deficit area, projections should be made on the basis of the data returned by the Member States relating both to the current marketing year as regards consumption trends, and to the prospects for the coming marketing year as regards developments in available production. As a result, areas should be recognised as deficit areas only where the projections clearly indicate that a deficit is likely to occur.
(4) On this basis, the areas of production in Greece, Spain, Ireland and the United Kingdom, Italy, Portugal and Finland are likely to be deficit areas.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The derived intervention prices for white sugar in the deficit areas of the Community for the 2004/05 marketing year shall be:
(a) EUR 655,30 per tonne for all areas in Greece;
