Commission Regulation (EC) No 116/2003
of 22 January 2003
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), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1513/2001(2), 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(3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2962/77(4).
(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 Management Committee for Oils and Fats has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,
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 23 January 2003.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas the sudden cessation of payment of that premium at the end of April can cause serious disturbances on the markets of the Member States concerned; whereas payment of the premium should consequently be staggered to avoid the said adverse effects;  whereas, therefore, the period of application should be extended and the level of the premium reduced step by step,
Article 4c (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 is hereby replaced by the following:
'However, in the stead of the unit amount referred to in the previous subparagraph, in Member States which fulfil the conditions set out in paragraph 1 and in which the percentage of slaughtered castrated male bovine animals compared with the total  number of slaughtered male bovine animals is greater than 10 %, this premium shall be granted in accordance with the following conditions:
- ECU 60 per animal slaughtered during the first 15 weeks of the following year,
- ECU 45 per animal slaughtered during the 16th and 17th weeks of the following year,
- ECU 30 per animal slaughtered during the 18th to the 21st week of the following year,
and
- ECU 15 per animal slaughtered during the 22nd and 23rd weeks of the following year.
In order to establish that the 10 % rate has been exceeded, account shall be taken of animals slaughtered during the second year preceding that in which the animal receiving the premium was slaughtered.'
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply from 1 January 1995.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) The European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) was established to provide additional support for workers made redundant as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns due to globalisation and to assist them with their reintegration into the labour market.
(2) The scope of the EGF was broadened for applications submitted from 1 May 2009 to include support for workers made redundant as a direct result of the global financial and economic crisis.
(3) The Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 allows the mobilisation of the EGF within the annual ceiling of EUR 500 million.
(4) Ireland submitted an application on 9 June 2010 to mobilise the EGF in respect of redundancies in 230 enterprises operating in the NACE Revision 2 Division 71 (‘Architectural and engineering activities; technical testing and analysis’) in the NUTS II regions of Border, Midlands and Western (IE01) and Southern and Eastern (IE02) in Ireland, and supplemented it by additional information up to 17 June 2011.

The Commission, therefore, proposes to mobilise an amount of EUR 1 387 819.
