derogating from Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC and Council Regulation (EEC) No 2261/84 as regards the fixing of the olive yields and oil yields in Cyprus, Malta and Slovenia
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to the Treaty of Accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia, and in particular the first paragraph of Article 41 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 18 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2261/84 of 17 July 1984 laying down general rules on the granting of aid for the production of olive oil and of aid to olive oil producer organisations (1) provides that the olive yields and oil yields referred to in Article 5(7) of Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC of 22 September 1966 on the establishment of a common organisation of the market in oils and fats (2) are to be fixed by homogeneous production zone on the basis of the figures supplied by producer Member States.
(2) The statistical results for Cyprus, Malta and Slovenia, in view of their modest production levels, are obtained on the basis of a single regional area and a small sample that does not permit an accurate national figure to be obtained. The resultant data would thus be inconsistent and unusable for the purposes of controls.
(3) In order to relieve Cyprus, Malta and Slovenia of the heavy administrative burden in applying the method for estimating yields solely for the 2004/05 marketing year, which in any case would produce an inadequate result, a derogation should be made from Article 5(7) of Regulation No 136/66/EEC and Article 18 of Regulation (EEC) No 2261/84 and no olive yields or oil yields should be fixed for those Member States for that marketing year.
(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Oils and Fats,
For the 2004/05 marketing year, Article 5(7) of Regulation No 136/66/EEC and Article 18 of Regulation (EEC) No 2261/84 shall not apply to Cyprus, Malta and Slovenia.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

of 1 March 2002
fixing the minimum selling prices for butter and the maximum aid for cream, butter and concentrated butter for the 92nd individual invitation to tender under the standing invitation to tender provided for in Regulation (EC) No 2571/97
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), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1670/2000(2), and in particular Article 10 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) The intervention agencies are, pursuant to Commission Regulation (EC) No 2571/97 of 15 December 1997 on the sale of butter at reduced prices and the granting of aid for cream, butter and concentrated butter for use in the manufacture of pastry products, ice-cream and other foodstuffs(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 635/2000(4), to sell by invitation to tender certain quantities of butter that they hold and to grant aid for cream, butter and concentrated butter. Article 18 of that Regulation stipulates that in the light of the tenders received in response to each individual invitation to tender a minimum selling price shall be fixed for butter and maximum aid shall be fixed for cream, butter and concentrated butter. It is further stipulated that the price or aid may vary according to the intended use of the butter, its fat content and the incorporation procedure, and that a decision may also be taken to make no award in response to the tenders submitted. The amount(s) of the processing securities must be fixed accordingly.
(2) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
The minimum selling prices and the maximum aid and processing securities applying for the 92nd individual invitation to tender, under the standing invitation to tender provided for in Regulation (EC) No 2571/97, shall be fixed as indicated in the Annex hereto.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 718/91  of 21 March 1991  amending Regulation (EEC) No 3/84 introducing arrangements for movement within the Community of goods sent from one Member State for temporary use in one or more other Member States
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 100a thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
In cooperation with the European Parliament (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (3),
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3/84 (4), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1292/89 (5), became applicable on 1 July 1985 for an initial experimental period of three years;
Whereas application of the arrangements governing the movement of goods within the Community was extended by Regulation (EEC) No 1292/89; whereas the amendments made to those arrangements by that Regulation ensured alignment between the Seventeenth  Council Directive 85/362/EEC of 16 July 1985 on the harmonization of the laws of the Member States relating to turnover taxes - Exemption from value added tax on the temporary importation of goods other than means of transport (6) and Regulation (EEC)  No 3/84;
Whereas, in its present form, Regulation (EEC) No 3/84 does not allow works of art not accompanied by their authors or agents, or carpets that constitute commerical samples, to benefit from the arrangements; whereas this is not only a retrograde step  compared with the situation prior to 1 July 1989 but it also fails to ensure parallelism with Directive 85/362/EEC; whereas it is essential to stipulate that the said Regulation is applicable in both cases;
Whereas Article 8a of the Treaty provides for the progressive establishment over a period expiring on 31 December 1992 of the internal market comprising an area without internal frontiers in which, in particular, the free movement of goods is ensured;
Whereas the effect of implementing that provision will be to make the arrangements governing the temporary movement of goods within the Community redundant;
Whereas amendment of Regulation (EEC) No 3/84 is in the interests of Community nationals; whereas it should therefore become applicable as quickly as possible,
Regulation (EEC) No 3/84 is hereby amended as follows:
1. In Article 1 (1a):
- subparagraph (b) replaced by the following:
'(b) made-up articles of fur, precious stones, carpets excluding commercial samples put up as such, and articles of jewellery;'
- subparagraph (e) deleted.
2. The second paragraph of Article 16 replaced by the following:
'This Regulation repealed as from the date of application of Regulation (EEC) No 2726/90 (*).
(*) OJ No L 262, 26. 9. 1990, p. 1.'
3. In Article 16, the following paragraph added:
'The Commission shall, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 15, adopt the necessary transitional provisions.'
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities. This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
