COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1648/1999
of 27 July 1999
derogating from Regulation (EEC) No 1589/87 on the sale by tender of butter to intervention agencies
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1587/96(2), and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 7a(1) and Article 7a(3) thereof,
(1) Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1589/87(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 124/1999(4), establishes the rules for the sale by tender of butter to intervention agencies; whereas Article 3(1) of that Regulation stipulates that tenderers may take part in the invitation to tenders only in respect of butter manufactured in the 21 days preceding the final date for the submission of tenders;
(2) Whereas, in view of the fact that a single invitation to tender takes place at the end of August, and that therefore a period of 28 days separates that invitation to tender from the final invitation to tender in July, the period of 21 days is too short to give access to intervention to all the butter manufactured in the period between the two invitations to tender; whereas therefore there should be a temporary extension to 28 days of the period during which butter may be manufactured and offered for intervention;
(3) Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
By derogation from Article 3(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1589/87 and in respect of the invitation to tender for which the time limit for the submission of tenders expires on the fourth Tuesday of August 1999, the manufacturing period referred to in the above paragraph shall be 28 days.
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.
COMMISSION  DECISION
of 21 December 1981
establishing that the apparatus described as 'Tracor gas chromatograph, model 560, with detector, model Hall 700A and hydrogen generator, model 15 EHG 2B4' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties
(82/59/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 of 10 July 1975 on the importation free of Common Customs Tariff duties of educational, scientific and cultural materials (1), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1027/79 (2),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 of 12 December 1979 laying down provisions for the implementation of Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 (3), and in particular Article 7 thereof,
Whereas, by letter dated 10 June 1981, the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany has requested the Commission to invoke the procedure provided for in Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 in order to determine whether or not the apparatus described as 'Tracor gas chromatograph, model 560, with detector, model Hall 700A and hydrogen generator, model 15 EHG 2B4', to be used for geochemical prospecting analyses on solid samples, should be considered as a scientific apparatus and, where the reply is in the affirmative, whether apparatus of equivalent scientific value is currently being manufactured in the Community;
Whereas, in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79, a group of experts composed of representatives of all the Member States met on 18 November 1981 within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine the matter;
Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question is a gas chromatograph;
Whereas it does not have the requisite objective characteristics making it specifically suited to scientific research; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for non-scientific activities; whereas its use in the case in question could not alone confer upon it the character of a scientific apparatus; whereas it therefore cannot be regarded as a scientific apparatus; whereas the duty-free admission of the apparatus in question is therefore not justified,
The apparatus described as 'Tracor gas chromatograph, model 560, with detector, model Hall 700A and hydrogen generator, model 15 EHG 2B4', which is the subject of an application by the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany of 10 June 1981, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 91/493/EEC of 22 July 1991  (1), laying down the health  conditions for the production and the placing on the market of fishery products, as last amended by  the Act of Accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden, and in particular Article 11 (5) thereof,
Whereas the list of establishments and factory ships approved by Argentina for importing fishery  products into the Community has been drawn up in Commission Decision 93/437/EEC  (2), as last  amended by Decision 94/341/EC  (3); whereas this list may be amended following the communication of  a new list by the competent authority in Argentina;
Whereas the competent authority in Argentina has communicated a new list adding nine establishments  and 47 factory ships, deleting 33 establishments and 17 factory ships, and amending the data of  seven factory ships;
Whereas it is necessary to amend the list of approved establishments and factory ships  accordingly;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision have been drawn up in accordance with the  procedure laid down by Commission Decision 90/13/EEC  (4),

COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 1831/85

amending Regulation (EEC) No 3626/82 on the implementation in the Community of the Convention on international trade in endangered species of wild fauna and flora
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 235 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (3),
Whereas the present high volume of Community imports of bulbs of certain cyclamen species may constitute a threat to the conservation status of these species in the wild;
Whereas the inclusion of such species in part 2 of Annex C to Regulation (EEC) No 3626/82 (4) allows for the application of stricter criteria for the issue of import permits than their present listing in Appendix II to Annex A to that Regulation;
Whereas Cyclamen persicum, however, has for many years been artificially propagated in the Community on a large scale as a result of which imports of wild-collected bulbs of that species no longer take place;
Whereas it is therefore not necessary to maintain the listing of Cyclamen persicum in part 1 of Annex C to Regulation (EEC) No 3626/82; whereas its transfer to part 2 of Annex C adequately safeguards the protection of the species' wild populations,
Regulation (EEC) No 3626/82 is hereby amended as follows:
1. In Appendix II to Annex A, under the heading 'Primulaceae', the text between square brackets after 'Cyclamen spp.' is replaced by:
'C 1: Cyclamen graecum (incl. C. mindleri)
Cyclamen creticum
Cyclamen balearicum
C 2: Cyclamen spp.'.
2. In part 1 of Annex C, under the heading 'Primulaceae', 'Cyclamen persicum' is deleted.
3. In part 2 of Annex C, under the heading 'Primulaceae', the entries are replaced by: 'Cyclamen spp.'.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of 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.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 2071/91  of 15 July 1991  altering, for the 1991/92, marketing year, the adjustment aid and additional aid to the sugar refining industry
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic 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 (EEC) No 464/91 (2), and in particular the seventh indent of Article 9 (6) thereof,
Whereas Article 9 (4b) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 provides that during the 1991/92 to 1992/93 marketing years adjustment aid of ECU 0,08 per 100 kilograms of sugar expressed as white sugar is to be granted as an intervention measure to the  Community's preferential raw cane sugar refining industry; whereas, as provided for in those provisions, additional aid equal to that amount is to be granted during the same period for the refining of raw cane sugar produced in the French overseas  departments and for the refining of quantities of raw beet sugar harvested in the Community and qualifying for the refining aid pursuant to the second subparagraph of Article 9 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 and in accordance with Commission  Regulation (EEC) No 737/91 (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1807/91 (4);
Whereas the fourth subparagraph of Article 9 (4b) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 provides that the adjustment aid and the additional aid referred to above may be altered in respect of a given marketing year in the light in particular of the storage levy  fixed for that year; whereas the storage levy for the 1991/92 marketing year was fixed by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1867/91 (5) at ECU 2,50 per 100 kilograms of white sugar; whereas this amount is identical to that applicable for the 1990/91  marketing year;
Whereas account should, however, be taken of the alteration in the aid in question that has already been made for the 1990/91 marketing year in order to neutralize the effect of successive storage levy reductions on the refining margin for the 1991/92  marketing year;
Whereas these provisions must apply from the beginning of the 1991/92 marketing year on 1 July 1991;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The amounts of the adjustment aid and of the additional aid provided for respectively in the second and third subparagraphs of Article 9 (4b) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 shall be fixed at ECU 1,58 per 100 kilograms of sugar expressed as  white sugar for the 1991/92 marketing year.
For the same marketing year, the amount referred to in the first subparagraph shall also be granted, as additional aid, for the refining of the quantity of raw beet sugar referred to in Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 737/91.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply with effect from 1 July 1991. This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
