COMMISSION  REGULATION (EEC) No 3535/84
of 17 December 1984
repealing Regulation (EEC) No 818/80 laying down protective measures applicable to imports of cultivated mushrooms in brine
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 516/77 of 14 March 1977 on the common organization of the market in products processed from fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 988/84 (2), and in particular Article 14 (2) thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 818/80 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3348/82 (4), lays down protective measures applicable to imports of cultivated mushrooms in brine and cultivated mushrooms prepared or preserved using vinegar or acetic acid; whereas the difficulties affecting the Community market in mushrooms at the time these safeguard measures were taken, as a consequence of the growth of imports from third countries, have receded to the point where it no longer appears necessary to maintain import controls; whereas, accordingly, the Regulation in question should now be repealed,
Regulation (EEC) No 818/80 is hereby repealed.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 1985.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1122/2007
of 27 September 2007
fixing the rates of refunds applicable to certain products from the sugar sector exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex I to the Treaty
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 of 20 February 2006 on the common organisation of the market in the sugar sector (1), and in particular Article 33(2)(a) and (4) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 32(1) and (2) of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 provides that the differences between the prices in international trade for the products listed in Article 1(1)(b), (c), (d) and (g) of that Regulation and prices within the Community may be covered by an export refund where these products are exported in the form of goods listed in Annex VII to that Regulation.
(2) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005 of 30 June 2005 implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 3448/93 as regards the system of granting export refunds on certain agricultural products exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex I to the Treaty, and the criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds (2), specifies the products for which a rate of refund is to be fixed, to be applied where these products are exported in the form of goods listed in Annex VII to Regulation (EC) No 318/2006.
(3) In accordance with the first paragraph of Article 14 of Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005, the rate of the refund per 100 kilograms for each of the basic products in question is to be fixed each month.
(4) Article 32(4) of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 lays down that the export refund for a product contained in goods may not exceed the refund applicable to that product when exported without further processing.
(5) The refunds fixed under this Regulation may be fixed in advance as the market situation over the next few months cannot be established at the moment.
(6) The commitments entered into with regard to refunds which may be granted for the export of agricultural products contained in goods not covered by Annex I to the Treaty may be jeopardised by the fixing in advance of high refund rates. It is therefore necessary to take precautionary measures in such situations without, however, preventing the conclusion of long-term contracts. The fixing of a specific refund rate for the advance fixing of refunds is a measure which enables these various objectives to be met.
(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The rates of the refunds applicable to the basic products listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005 and in Article 1(1) and in point (1) of Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006, and exported in the form of goods listed in Annex VII to Regulation (EC) No 318/2006, shall be fixed as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 28 September 2007.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas for certain species those determinations include Turkey;
Whereas an examination of the rules in Turkey and the manner in which they are applied has shown that in respect of the species listed in Directive 66/401/EEC the prescribed field inspections satisfy the conditions laid down in Annex I to this Directive and the conditions governing seed harvested and controlled there afford the same assurances as regards the seed's characteristics, identity, examination, marking and control as do the conditions applicable to such seed harvested and controlled within the Community;
Whereas the existing equivalence for Turkey should therefore be extended accordingly;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry,
In the entry relating to Turkey in Part I of the Annex to Decision 95/514/EC, '66/401/EEC` is inserted after the entry relating to '66/400/EEC`.
