Whereas:
(1) Article 16 of Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 provides for the presentation of an inventory of wine production potential.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 122/97 of 23 January 1997 amending Regulation (EEC) No 3567/92 as regards detailed rules for the use and transfer of rights in the sheepmeat and goatmeat sector
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89 of 25 September 1989 on the common organization of the market in sheepmeat and goatmeat (1), as last amended by Council Regulation (EC) No 1589/96 (2), and in particular Article 5a (4) thereof,
Whereas the rules covering transfer of premium rights, as laid down in Article 7 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3567/92 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1847/95 (4), mean that the competent authority cannot recognize a change in the number of rights of a producer, through a transfer, where a producer notifies that authority after the date on which he made a premium application; whereas, in the event of such a late notification of transfer, both the producer intending to receive the rights and the producer transferring out the rights, are subject to the foreseen penalties which, in this case, may be considered disproportionately severe for the error committed;
Whereas, to provide more equitable conditions for such transfers but without prejudice to the need for proper control of premium applications, it is necessary to allow the competent authorities more flexibility in the implementation of the transfer rules; whereas Member States should therefore be allowed to permit notification of transfers until the last day of the premium application period, that is, before controls take place;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3567/92 should be amended accordingly;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sheepmeat and Goatmeat,
Article 7 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3567/92 is replaced by the following:
'2. Transfers of premium rights and temporary leasing of such rights shall be effective only after they have been notified to the competent authorities of the Member State by the producer transferring and/or leasing the rights and by the producer receiving the rights.
Such notification shall be made within a deadline set by the Member State and not later than the date on which the premium application period ends in that Member State except in those cases where the transfer of rights takes effect through an inheritance. In that case, the producer who receives the rights must be in a position to furnish appropriate legal documents to prove that he or she is the beneficiary of the deceased producer.`
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply to premium rights relating to 1997 and subsequent marketing years.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas, as provided for in Article 15, where the increase of preferential imports of these products, originating in one or more beneficiary countries, causes, or threatens to cause, economic difficulties in the Community or in a region of the Community, the levying of customs duties may be re-established once the Commission has had an appropriate exchange of information with the Member States; whereas for this purpose the reference base to be considered shall be, as a general rule, equal to 5 % of the total importations into the Community, originating from third countries in 1986;
Whereas, in the case of silicides, falling within CN code 2850 00 70, the reference base is fixed at ECU 306 000; whereas, on 1 September 1988, imports of these products into the Community originating in Brazil, reached the reference base in question after being charged there-against; whereas the exchange of information organized by the Commission has demonstrated that continuance of the preference thereatens to cause economic difficulties in a region of the Community; whereas, therefore, customs duties in respect of the products in question must be re-established against Brazil,
As from 18 December 1988, the levying of customs duties, suspended pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3635/87, shall be re-established on imports into the Community of the following products originating in Brazil:
1.2 //  //  // CN code   // Description  //  //  // 2850 00 70   // Silicides   //    //

That historical relationship has been established in Article 2(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001 of 2 August 2001 laying down detailed rules for applying the cotton aid scheme (3). Where the world market price cannot be determined in this way, it is to be based on the most recent price determined.

To that end, an average is to be calculated of offers and quotations recorded on one or more European exchanges for a product delivered cif to a port in the Community and coming from the various supplier countries considered the most representative in terms of international trade. However, there is provision for adjusting the criteria for determining the world market price for ginned cotton to reflect differences justified by the quality of the product delivered and the offers and quotations concerned. Those adjustments are specified in Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001.
(3) The application of the above criteria gives the world market price for unginned cotton determined hereinafter,
The world price for unginned cotton as referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 is hereby determined as equalling EUR 22,224/100 kg.
