THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Decision 90/424/EEC of 26 June 1990 on expenditure in the veterinary field (1), and in particular Articles 3(3) and 3a(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Decision 90/424/EEC lays down the procedures governing the Community’s financial contribution towards specific veterinary measures, including emergency measures. Pursuant to Article 3a of that Decision, Member States may obtain a Community financial contribution towards the costs of certain measures to eradicate avian influenza.
(2) Article 3a(3) of Decision 90/424/EEC lays down rules on the percentage of the costs incurred by Member States that may be covered by the Community’s financial contribution.
(3) Outbreaks of avian influenza occurred in Poland in 2007. The emergence of that disease represents a serious risk to the Community’s livestock population. Poland took the measures, as referred to in Article 3a(2) of Decision 90/424/EEC, to combat those outbreaks.
(4) Poland has fully complied with its technical and administrative obligations as set out in Articles 3(3) and 3a(2) of Decision 90/424/EEC and Article 6 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 349/2005. (2).
(5) Poland submitted to the Commission information on the costs incurred on 4 February 2008 and on 13 March 2008, and continued to provide all necessary information on costs of compensation and operational expenditure.
(6) Following the amendment of Decision 90/424/EEC by Concil Decision 2006/53/EC (3), Commission Regulation (EC) No 349/2005 no longer covers avian influenza. It is therefore necessary to expressly provide in the present Decision that the granting of a Community financial contribution to Poland is subject to compliance with certain rules laid down in that Regulation.
(7) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
Financial contribution from the Community to Poland

fixing the export refunds on olive oil
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC of 22 September 1966 on the establishment of a common organisation of the market in oils and fats (1), and in particular Article 3(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 3 of Regulation No 136/66/EEC provides that, where prices within the Community are higher than world market prices, the difference between these prices may be covered by a refund when olive oil is exported to third countries.
(2) The detailed rules for fixing and granting export refunds on olive oil are contained in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 616/72 (2).
(3) Article 3(3) of Regulation No 136/66/EEC provides that the refund must be the same for the whole Community.
(4) In accordance with Article 3(4) of Regulation No 136/66/EEC, the refund for olive oil must be fixed in the light of the existing situation and outlook in relation to olive oil prices and availability on the Community market and olive oil prices on the world market. However, where the world market situation is such that the most favourable olive oil prices cannot be determined, account may be taken of the price of the main competing vegetable oils on the world market and the difference recorded between that price and the price of olive oil during a representative period. The amount of the refund may not exceed the difference between the price of olive oil in the Community and that on the world market, adjusted, where appropriate, to take account of export costs for the products on the world market.
(5) In accordance with Article 3(3) third indent, point (b) of Regulation No 136/66/EEC, it may be decided that the refund shall be fixed by tender. The tendering procedure should cover the amount of the refund and may be limited to certain countries of destination, quantities, qualities and presentations.
(6) The second indent of Article 3(3) of Regulation No 136/66/EEC provides that the refund on olive oil may be varied according to destination where the world market situation or the specific requirements of certain markets make this necessary.
(7) The refund must be fixed at least once every month. It may, if necessary, be altered in the intervening period.
(8) It follows from applying these detailed rules to the present situation on the market in olive oil and in particular to olive oil prices within the Community and on the markets of third countries that the refund should be as set out in the Annex hereto.
(9) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Oils and Fats,
The export refunds on the products listed in Article 1(2)(c) of Regulation No 136/66/EEC shall be as set out in the Annex hereto.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 26 June 2004.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3783/87 of 3 December 1987 concerning the administration of the generalized tariff preferences for 1988 in respect of textile products originating in developing countries (1), and in particular Article 4 thereof,
Whereas Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 3783/87 provides that preferential tariff treatment shall be accorded, for each category of products subjected in Annexes I and II of Council Regulation No 3782/87 (2) to individual ceilings, within the limits of the quantities specified in column 7 of its Annexes I or II, in respect of certain or each of the countries or territories of origin referred to in column 5 of the same Annexes; whereas Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 3783/87 provides that the levying of customs duties may be re-established at any time in respect of imports of the products in question once the relevant individual ceilings have been reached at Community level;
Whereas, in respect of textile fabrics coated, products of category No 99 (order number 40.0990) the relevant ceiling amounts to 17 tonnes;
Whereas on 9 February 1988 imports of the products in question into the Community originating in South Korea, a country covered by preferential tariff arrangements, reached and were charged against that ceiling;
Whereas it is appropriate to re-introduce the levying of customs duties for the products in question with regard to South Korea,
As from 21 February 1988 the levying of customs duties, suspended in pursuance of Regulation (EEC) No 3782/87, shall be re-established in respect of the following products, imported into the Community and originating in South Korea:
1.2.3.4 //  //  //  //  // Order number   // Category (Unit)  // CN code   // Description  //  //  //  //  // (1)   // (2)  // (3)   // (4)  //  //  //  //  // 40.0990   // 99 (tonnes)  // 5901 10 00 5901 90 00  // Textile fabrics coated with gum or amylaceous substances, of a kind used for the outer covers of books and the like; tracing cloth, prepared painting canvas, buckram and similar stiffened textile fabrics of a kind used for hat foundations   //    //   //   //

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2155/98 of 7 October 1998 derogating from Regulation (EC) No 1223/94 laying down special detailed rules for the application of the system of advance-fixing certificates for certain agricultural products exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex II to the Treaty as regards the period of validity of the advance-fixing certificates for milk products
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3448/93 of 6 December 1993 laying down the trade arrangements applicable to certain goods resulting from the processing of agricultural products (1), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1097/98 (2), and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 8(3) thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1223/94 of 30 May 1994 laying down special detailed rules for the application of the system of advance-fixing certificates for certain agricultural products exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex II to the Treaty (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1479/98 (4), stipulates that the advance-fixing certificates for milk and milk products shall be valid until the end of the fourth month following that of issue;
Whereas the situation on the world market in milk products is unusual, and it is hard to predict what price trends will be, particularly over the entire current period of validity of the certificates;
Whereas the level of expenditure on agricultural products exported in the form of non-Annex II goods may subsequently reduce the prospects for exporting these products, in accordance with the international agreements concluded by the Community; whereas, consequently, steps must be taken to avoid aggravating these consequences by excessive recourse to advance fixing of the refund rates; whereas, under these conditions, the period of validity of these advance-fixing certificates should be limited, temporarily, to until the end of the third month following that of issue;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for horizontal questions concerning trade in processed agricultural products not listed in Annex II,
By way of derogation from Article 4(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1223/94, the advance-fixing certificates for products covered by the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products shall be valid until the end of the third month following that of issue.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply to applications for certificates lodged from 1 October 1998.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
REGULATION (EEC) No 2863/75 OF THE COMMISSION  of 3 November 1975  amending Regulation (EEC) No 1105/68 on detailed rules for granting aid for skimmed milk for use as feed
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community;
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 (1) of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 740/75 (2), and in particular Article 10 (3) thereof;
Whereas the second subparagraph of Article 10 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 804/68, in the version at present in force, provides that buttermilk for use as feed shall be regarded as skimmed milk for the purposes of granting aid;
Whereas, since that provision came into force, it has become apparent that the present provisions of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1105/68 (3) of 27 July 1968 on detailed rules for granting aid for skimmed milk for use as feed, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2114/75 (4), do not take into account the case of dairies which use the skimmed milk and/or buttermilk which they produce for feeding their own animals ; whereas those provisions should therefore be supplemented by certain special rules;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the Opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
The following Article 5a shall be inserted in Regulation (EEC) No 1105/68:
"Article 5a
1. Where a dairy uses solely for feeding its own animals the skimmed milk which it produces, this shall be regarded as a case coming within Article 2 (1) (b) of Regulation (EEC) No 986/68.
2. Such a dairy may receive aid:      (a) only for those quantities of skimmed milk which the dairy has declared in writing to the competent agency as being used for feeding its own animals, and
(b) only if it keeps the monthly record referred to in Article 5.
3. However, if, in the case described in paragraph 1, only buttermilk is used, the dairy shall receive, for each kilogramme of butter produced and sold, the aid payable for 2.2 kilogrammes of skimmed milk. The monthly record referred to in Article 5 (1) shall also contain details of the quantities of butter produced and sold, supported in particular by delivery vouchers and invoices."
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
Where a dairy concerned so requests, it shall apply with effect from 1 April 1975.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
