THE   COMMISSION   OF   THE   EUROPEAN   COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Articles 83  (1)  and 84  (3) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No  569/86 of 25  February 1986 laying down general  rules for applying the supplementary trade mechanism applicable to trade  (1), and in particular  Article 7  (1) thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No  574/86  (2), laid down detailed rules for applying the  supplementary trade mechanism to all the agricultural sectors; whereas specific provisions should  be laid down for milk and milk products;
Whereas provision should be made, on the basis of the forward estimate for the products in  question referred to in Article 83  (1) of the Act of Accession, for the fixing of indicative  ceilings for imports into Spain from the Community of Ten; whereas in view of the possibilities of  an increase in consumption of milk products in Spain, the ceilings applicable to the products in  question should be fixed at levels higher than the 'guide` quantities;
Whereas for practical reasons the ceilings should be fixed for the calendar year rather than the  marketing year;
Whereas the 'guide` quantities should be broken down by month to ensure regular supplies to the  Spanish market; whereas the 'guide` quantity should also be broken down for milk and cream, other  than in small packages, in the light of the potential outlets for those products on the Spanish  market;
Whereas as regards cheese falling within heading No  04.04 of the Common Customs Tariff the  'guide` quantity should also be broken down by category to take account of consumer habits in  Spain;
Whereas the quantities that may be the subject of the STM licences, the period of validity of such  licences and the amount of the securities for each group of products should be fixed in such a way  as to ensure the smooth operation of the system;
Whereas the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products failed to deliver an opinion within  the period specified by its chairman,
1. The indicative ceilings referred to in the second subparagraph  of Article 83  (1) of the Act of Accession shall be as shown in the Annex for the period 1  March  to 31  December 1986.
2. For the purposes of fixing and applying the indicative ceilings, the marketing year shall  correspond to the calendar year.
1. For the period 1  March to 31  December 1986 the 'guide` quantities referred to  in Article  84 of the Act of Accession shall be broken down as follows:
(a) as regards milk and cream falling within heading No  04.01 of the Common Customs Tariff other  than in immediate packings of a net capacity of 2,5  kg or less:
- March 1986: 25  000 tonnes,
