Having regard to Commission Directive 86/109/EEC of 27 February 1986, limiting the marketing of seed of certain species of fodder plants and oil and fibre plants to seed which has been officially certified as 'basic seed' or 'certified seed' (3), as  last amended by Directive 91/376/EEC (4), and in particular Article 2a thereof,
Having regard to the request submitted by the Federal Republic of Germany,
Whereas in Germany the production of seed of bitter white lupin satisfying the requirements of Directive 66/401/EEC has been insufficient in 1991 and therefore is not adequate to meet that country's needs;
Whereas it is not possible to cover this demand satisfactorily with such seed from other Member States or from third countries satisfying all the requirements laid down in Directive 66/401/EEC;
Whereas the Federal Republic of Germany should therefore be authorized to permit for a period expiring on 31 October 1992 the marketing of seed of the abovementioned species which does not satisfy the requirements laid down in the said Directive;
Whereas, moreover, other Member States, which are able to supply the Federal Republic of Germany with such seed not satisfying the requirements of the said Directive should be authorized to permit the marketing of such seed provided it is intended for  the Federal Republic of Germany;
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,
The Federal Republic of Germany is authorized to permit, for a period expiring on 31 October 1992, the marketing in its territory of a maximum of 400 tonnes of commercial seed of bitter white lupin (Lupinus albus L.). The official label shall  state: 'Intended exclusively for Germany'.
The other Member States are hereby authorized to permit, subject to the conditions laid down in Article 1, the marketing in their territory of a total amount of 400 tonnes of commercial seed of bitter white lupin (Lupinus albus L.) provided  that it is intended exclusively for the Federal Republic of Germany. The official label shall state: 'Intended exclusively for Germany'.
Member States shall notify the Commission before 31 December 1992 of the quantities of seed marketed in their territory pursuant to this Decision. The Commission shall inform the other Member States thereof.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 61/2007
of 25 January 2007
fixing the export refunds on 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 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (1), and in particular Article 31(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 31(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 provides that the difference between prices on the world market for the products listed in Article 1 of that Regulation and prices for those products on the Community market may be covered by an export refund.
(2) Given the present situation on the market in milk and milk products, export refunds should therefore be fixed in accordance with the rules and certain criteria provided for in Article 31 of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999.
(3) The second subparagraph of Article 31(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 provides that the world market situation or the specific requirements of certain markets may make it necessary to vary the refund according to destination.
(4) In accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding between the European Community and the Dominican Republic on import protection for milk powder in the Dominican Republic (2) approved by Council Decision 98/486/EC (3), a certain amount of Community milk products exported to the Dominican Republic can benefit from reduced customs duties. For this reason, export refunds granted to products exported under this scheme should be reduced by a certain percentage.
(5) Export refunds may be set to cover the competitive gap between Community and third country's exports. Community exports to certain close destinations and to third countries granting Community products a preferential import treatment are currently in a particular favourable competitive position. Therefore, refunds for exports to those destinations should be abolished.
(6) The Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,
Export refunds as provided for in Article 31 of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 shall be granted on the products and for the amounts set out in the Annex to this Regulation subject to the conditions provided for in Article 3(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006 (4).

Whereas on 11 October 1991, Italy requested Commission authorization to initiate already in 1991 the action on its territory to be financed by resources chargeable to the 1992 budget and indicated the quantities of produce that it wished to distribute;  whereas it is desirable to initiate the scheme now in Italy by making an allocation to that country; whereas this allocation shall not exceed 50 % of the resources allocated by Commission decision to Italy in respect of the plan for 1992;
Whereas in order to facilitate the implementation of this scheme it is necessary to specify the rate of exchange to be employed in converting the ecu into the national currency and to do so at a rate which reflects economic reality,

Whereas, in order to ensure compliance with the provisions relating to the quantitative limitations  on catches of stocks subject to quotas, it is necessary for the Commission to fix the date by which  catches made by vessels flying the flag of a Member State are deemed to have exhausted the quota  allocated;
Whereas, according to the information communicated to the Commission, catches of cod in the waters  of ICES division III  a Kattegat by vessels flying the flag of Sweden or registered in Sweden have  reached the quota allocated for 1995; whereas Sweden has prohibited fishing for this stock as from  11 September 1995; whereas it is therefore necessary to abide by that date,

COUNCIL  DECISION
of 7 June 1990
on the alignment of Portuguese prices for certain fruit and vegetables on the common prices
(90/265/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Article 234 (2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Article 265 (1) (b) of the abovementioned Act provides for the determination of the rules according to which the Portuguese Republic must align the Portuguese prices which are lower than the common prices to bring them closer to the common prices at the beginning of the 1990/91 marketing year; whereas, in accordance with the abovementioned provisions, that alignment relates to the level of Portuguese prices, expressed in ecus, at 31 December 1989;
Whereas Portugal had not yet fixed the institutional prices at 31 December 1989; whereas, however, because of the combined effect of Article 265 (1) of the Act of Accession and the trends in common prices, the gap between the common prices and Portuguese prices as recorded in the records of the 1985 negotiation proceedings may be considered as the maximum gap currently possible; whereas it is justifiable, in the absence of other data, to base the detailed rules relating to Portuguese prices for 1990/91 on this gap;
Whereas it is appropriate to provide for a level of alignment which, in conjunction with the provisions applicable during the second stage, will allow a harmonious and gradual alignment of Portuguese prices on the common prices,
1. For the 1990/91 marketing year, the Portuguese Republic shall fix at a level at least equal to the price provided for in paragraph 2 the basic price and the buying-in price in ecus of the following products:
- apples,
- pears,
- apricots,
- table grapes,
- lemons,
- oranges,
- tomatoes,
- aubergines,
- cauliflowers.
2. The minimum prices applicable in Portugal during the 1990/91 marketing year shall be obtained:
- by calculating as a percentage the gap between the common prices for the said marketing year and the Protuguese prices as recorded in the records of the 1985 negotiation proceedings,
- by reducing that gap by one-sixth.
This Decision is addressed to the Portuguese Republic.

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The unit amounts referred to in Article 5 (1) (b) of Regulation (EEC) No 1443/82 in respect of the 1989/90 marketing year are hereby fixed as follows:
