COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2528/95 of 27 October 1995 amending  Regulation (EC) No 1423/95 laying down detailed implementing rules for the import of products in  the sugar sector other than molasses
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 of 30 June 1981 on the common organization of  the markets in the sugar sector  (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1101/95  (2), and in  particular Articles 14 (2) and 15 (4) thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1423/95 of 23 June 1995 laying down detailed implementing  rules for the import of products in the sugar sector other than molasses  (3) lays down in  particular the method to be used to determine the sucrose content and the dry matter content used  for the application of import duties; whereas, in order to clarify the wording of the provisions in  question, mention should be made of the products to which the method applies; whereas provision  should also be made to specify that conversion into sucrose equivalent of the duties applicable to  inulin syrups should be by application of the coefficient 1,9 used both to fix the production  levies and export refunds and to fix, before 1 July 1995, the import levies;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the  Management Committee for Sugar,
Regulation (EC) No 1423/95 is hereby amended as follows:
1.  Article 5 (2) is replaced by the following:
'2.  For the products referred to in Article 1 (1) (d) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81, the sucrose  content, including other sugars expressed as sucrose, shall be determined by the application of the  Lane and Eynon method (copper reduction method) to the solution inverted according to  Clerget-Herzfeld. The total sugar content thus determined shall be expressed as sucrose by  multiplying by 0,95.
Notwithstanding the preceding subparagraph, the sucrose content, including other sugars expressed  as sucrose, of products containing less than 85  % sucrose or other sugars expressed as sucrose,  and invert sugar expressed as sucrose shall be determined by ascertaining the dry matter content.  The dry matter content shall be determined according to the specific gravity of the solution  diluted in a proportion of 1 to 1 by weight and, for solid products, by drying. The dry matter  content shall be expressed as sucrose by multiplying by the coefficient 1.` 2.  In Article 5, the following paragraphs 3 and 4 are added:
'3.  For the products referred to in Article 1 (1) (f) and (g) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81, the  dry matter content shall be determined in accordance with the second subparagraph of paragraph 2.
4.  For the products referred to in Article 1 (1) (h) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81, conversion  into sucrose equivalent shall be by multiplying the dry matter determined in accordance with the  second subparagraph of paragraph 2 by the coefficient 1,9.`
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in  the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all  Member States.
