COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2133/95 of 7 September 1995 amending Regulation (EEC) No  1517/77 drawing up a list of the various groups of hop varieties cultivated in the Community
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

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), as last amended by the Act of Accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden and  by Council Regulation (EC) No 3290/94 of 22 December 1994  (2) on the adjustments and transitional  arrangements required in the agriculture sector in order to implement the agreements concluded  during the Uruguay Round of multilateral tade negotiations, and in particular Article 12 (8)  thereof,

Whereas certain varieties are no longer cultivated in the Community; whereas they should  consequently be deleted from the Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 1517/77; whereas, however, the group  'Other` is incomplete and should therefore be supplemented;

Having regard to Council Regulation No 121/67/EEC (1) of 13 June 1967 on the common organisation of the market in pigmeat, and in particular Article 13 (5) thereof;
Whereas Commission Regulation No 202/67/EEC (2) of 28 June 1967 on fixing the additional amount for imports of pigmeat products from third countries lays down the procedure for determining the free-at-Community-frontier offers used for calculating the additional amount ; whereas the text of Article 1 (1) (b) and (d) of that Regulation may be interpreted to mean that an individual offer price may have to be fixed for slaughtered sows, which consequently makes an additional amount possible for that product alone;
Whereas the text of that Article must therefore be clarified whilst retaining the price increase for slaughtered sows provided for in Regulation No 202/67/EEC to make such prices comparable with those for other carcases;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the Opinion of the Management Committee for Pigmeat;
The following shall be substituted for Article 1 (1) (b) of Regulation No 202/67/EEC:  "
(b) for meat of domestic swine in carcases or half-carcases mentioned in the first sentence of Article 1 of Regulation No 134/67/EEC, as amended by Regulation No 173/67/EEC : the price determined in accordance with the provisions of Article 2, for meat of domestic swine in carcases or half-carcases with the heads, feet and flare fat, of a quality corresponding to the standard quality determined in accordance with the provisions of Article 4 (4) of Regulation No 121/67/EEC ; the prices obtained by applying Article 2 shall be increased by 17.65 % in the case of meat of slaughtered sows.
"
The provisions of Article 1 (1) (d) of Regulation No 202/67/EEC are hereby repealed.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 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.

Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1859/2003(3) fixed the quantities in respect of which applications may be submitted for export licences with advance fixing of the refund.
(2) Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1429/95 fixed the conditions in which special measures may be taken by the Commission with a view to preventing an overrun in the quantities for which export licences may be issued.
(3) In the light of information now available to the Commission, these quantities would be exceeded if all licences with advance fixing of the refund for the export of sugar-preserved cherries applied for since 20 February 2004 were issued without restriction. A reducing factor should therefore be applied to the quantities of this product applied for on 20 February 2004 and all applications for export licences with advance fixing of the refund submitted after that date during the same application period should be rejected,
Export licences with advance fixing of the refund for sugar-preserved cherries for which applications were submitted on 20 February 2004 under Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 1859/2003 shall be issued for 70,5 % of the quantities applied for.
