Whereas Article 3 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1188/81 states that the quantity of cereals on which the refund shall be granted shall be that placed under control weighted by a coefficient, fixed annually for each Member State concerned, expressing the ratio for the spirituous beverage in question between the total quantity exported and the total quantity marketed; whereas, further to information provided by Ireland concerning the period 1 January to 31 December 1984, the coefficients for the period 1 August 1985 to 31 July 1986 should now be fixed;

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas:
(1) Directive 2002/53/EC allows for the Council to determine whether the official examinations of varieties carried out in a third country afford the same assurances as those carried out in the Member States.
(2) The rules on the official examination of varieties carried out in Croatia in respect of wheat, barley and maize provide that the acceptance of varieties as regards their distinctness, stability and uniformity is based on the results of official examinations, particularly growing trials, covering a sufficient number of characteristics for the variety to be described.
(3) An examination of those rules and the manner in which they are applied in Croatia in respect of the three aforementioned species has shown that they afford the same assurances as those carried out by the Member States, provided that further conditions are satisfied.
(4) This Decision does not prevent Community findings on equivalence from being revoked if the conditions on which they are based are not, or cease to be, satisfied.
(5) Given that the Annexes may require frequent modification of their technical provisions, they should be amended in accordance with the procedure set out in Article 4 of Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission (2),
The official examinations as regards distinctness, stability and uniformity of the varieties of the species listed in Annex I carried out in Croatia by the Authority specified in Annex I shall be considered to afford the same assurances as those carried out by the Member States, if they satisfy the conditions set out in Annex II.
Amendments to the Annexes shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 3(2).
1.   The Commission shall be assisted by the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry, hereinafter referred to as ‘the Committee’, set up by Article 1 of Council Decision 66/399/EEC (3).
