COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1499/97 of 29 July 1997 amending for the second time Regulation (EC) No 913/97 adopting exceptional support measures for the pigmeat market in Spain
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in pigmeat (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 3290/94 (2), and in particular Article 20 thereof,
Whereas, because of the outbreak of classical swine fever in certain production regions in Spain, exceptional measures to support the pigmeat market were adopted for that Member State in Commission Regulation (EC) No 913/97 (3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1301/97 (4);
Whereas, because of continuing veterinary and trade restrictions adopted by the Spanish authorities and their extension to new areas, the number of pigs for fattening which may be delivered to the competent authorities should be increased, thus allowing the continuation of the exceptional measures in the coming weeks;
Whereas the aid granted for the delivery of piglets should be adjusted to the current market situation, taking account of the fall in prices;
Whereas the rapid and efficient application of the exceptional market support measures is one of the best ways of combating the spread of classical swine fever; whereas the application of one of the provisions of this Regulation from 16 July 1997 is therefore justified;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Pigmeat,
Regulation (EC) No 913/97 is hereby amended as follows:
1. in Article 4 (4), 'ECU 69`, 'ECU 60` and 'ECU 50` are replaced by 'ECU 60`, 'ECU 52` and 'ECU 43` respectively;
2. Annex I is replaced by Annex I hereto;
3. Annex II is replaced by Annex II hereto.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

establishing the standard import values for determining the entry price of certain fruit and vegetables
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 3223/94 of 21 December 1994 on detailed rules for the application of the import arrangements for fruit and vegetables (1), and in particular Article 4(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 3223/94 lays down, pursuant to the outcome of the Uruguay Round multilateral trade negotiations, the criteria whereby the Commission fixes the standard values for imports from third countries, in respect of the products and periods stipulated in the Annex thereto.
(2) In compliance with the above criteria, the standard import values must be fixed at the levels set out in the Annex to this Regulation,
The standard import values referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 3223/94 shall be fixed as indicated in the Annex hereto.

13.8.2009 EN Official Journal of the European Union L 209/3
COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 740/2009
of 12 August 2009
amending Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006 as regards export refunds for milk and milk products
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1), and in particular Articles 170 and 171, in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 5 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006 of 17 August 2006 laying down special detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 as regards export licences and export refunds for milk and milk products (2) fixes a minimum free-at-frontier price for cheeses in order to benefit from an export refund.
(2) This price is fixed at a level to ensure that the cheese for which an export refund is claimed is a quality cheese as opposed to a degraded cheese, cheese waste or cheese rind so that the refund arrangements can achieve their full economic impact. The unfavourable market circumstances since the autumn of 2008 have resulted in a continuous and sharp decrease of the cheese prices on the internal market to such an extent that the current minimum free-at-frontier price is no more reflecting the threshold in respect of its objective. The cheese market and the prices are likely to stay weak and volatile for a long period, which makes the fixing of an appropriate threshold price extremely difficult. The abolition of the minimum price criterion will reduce significantly the administrative burden for traders and competent authorities. The market evolution for cheeses as well as the exports with refunds should be properly monitored in order to reveal any abuse of the minimum price requirement abolition.
(3) Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,
Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006 is deleted.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply to export licence applications lodged from the date of entry into force of this Regulation.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas it is desirable that import authorizations should be issued in accordance with the requirements on origin specified in Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 3588/82;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Textile Committee - Yugoslavia set up by Regulation (EEC) No 3588/82,

1. The authorities of the Federal Republic of Germany shall authorize imports, not exceeding the supplementary quotas referred to in Article 1, only in respect of such contracts signed in Berlin during the Berlin Trade Fair as are recognized by those authorities as being eligible, provided that products covered by such approved contracts are placed on board for exportation to the Federal Republic of Germany in Yugoslavia after 15 October 1986.
2. The period of validity of import authorizations or equivalent documents issued in accordance with paragraph 1 shall not extend beyond 31 December 1987.
