Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1582/86 of 23 May 1986 on particular intervention measures for cereals (3) lays down the general rules applicable to such measures;
Whereas the intervention period for maize ends on 30 April in Spain; whereas that time limit, in view in particular of the Agreement with the United States on imports of maize and grain sorghum into Spain at a reduced levy, is likely to encourage operators to offer substantial quantities of maize for intervention at the end of April, although certain market outlets may still be found after that date; whereas this situation may be remedied by opening a possibility for that cereal, production of which is limited to certain regions of the Community, to be bought in in May 1990;
Whereas the conditions for buying in cereals are laid down in Council Regulation (EEC) No 1581/86 of 23 May 1986 laying down general rules for intervention on the market in cereals (4), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 195/89 (5), Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1569/87 of 11 July 1977 fixing the procedure and conditions for the taking over of cereals by intervention agencies (6), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1022/90 (7), and Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1570/77 of 11 June 1977 on price increases and reductions applicable to intervention in cereals (8), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2258/87 (9);
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
1. In accordance with Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 1582/86, the Spanish intervention agency shall buy in quantities of maize offered to it between the date of entry into force of this Regulation and 31 May 1990.
2. The price to be paid shall be the buying-in price referred to in Article 7 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75, as fixed for the 1989/90 marketing year, plus seven monthly increases.
3. The quantities offered must be delivered by 30 June 1990 at the latest.

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

(2) Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 2375/2002 fixes a quantity of 38000 tonnes for subquota II for the period 1 January to 31 December 2003.
(3) The quantities applied for on 29 September 2003, in accordance with Article 5(1) of Regulation (EC) No 2375/2002, exceed the quantities available. The extent to which licences may be issued should therefore be determined and a reduction coefficient laid down to be applied to the quantities applied for,
Each application for an import licence for subquota II for common wheat of a quality other than high quality lodged and forwarded to the Commission on 29 September 2003 in accordance with Article 5(1) and (2) of Regulation (EC) No 2375/2002 shall be accepted at a rate of 50,0115 % of the quantity applied for.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 2959/93 of 27 October 1993 amending Regulation (EEC) No 3769/92 implementing and amending Council Regulation (EEC) No 3677/90 laying down measures to be taken to discourage the diversion of certain substances to the  illicit manufacture of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3677/90 of 13 December 1990 laying down measures to be taken to discourage the diversion of certain substances to the illicit manufacture of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances (1), as amended by  Commission Regulation (EEC) No 900/92 (2), and in particular Article 10 (3) thereof,
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3769/92 (3) implementing and amending Council Regulation (EEC) No 3677/90, hereinafter referred to as 'the basic Regulation',
Whereas certain substances used for the illicit manufacture of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances listed in categories 2 and 3 are subject to targeted controls and are subject to an export authorization requirement when they are exported to  countries classed as sensitive;
Whereas the lists of sensitive destinations for the substances in question are contained in Annexes II and III to Regulation (EEC) No 3769/92;
Whereas the identification of sensitive destinations has to take place on the basis that a country is concerned, either by the illicit manufacture of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances or by other relevant factors such as geographical proximity  to a country in which such drugs or substances are produced;
Whereas in identifying sensitive destinations, the Commission, acting in agreement with the Member States' delegations, has preferred to establish contacts with each individual country concerned;
Whereas such approach was adopted in respect of a number of countries with a view to including them in the list of sensitive destinations and an initial list of countries was drawn up and annexed to Regulation (EEC) No 3769/92;
Whereas new concrete results having been reached through these contacts since the adoption of Regulation (EEC) No 3769/92, the list must be updated to include these new countries and, for reasons of transparency, the Annexes II and III to this  Regulation need to be replaced;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Drugs Precursors Committee,
Annexes II and III to Regulation (EEC) No 3769/92 are replaced by the Annex hereto.
This Regulation enters into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2378/1999
of 9 November 1999
amending Regulation (EC) No 1282/1999 providing for the granting of compensation to producers' organisations in respect of tuna delivered to the processing industry from 1 October to 31 December 1998
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 of 17 December 1992 on the common organisation of the market in fishery and aquaculture products(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 3318/94(2), and in particular Article 18(6) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Under Commission Regulation (EC) No 1282/1999(3), the allowance provided for in Article 18 of Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 was granted from 1 October to 31 December 1998 to certain producers' organisations in respect of albacore and skipjack tuna. The term "patudo" in the Spanish language version of that Regulation published in the Official Journal of the European Communities is wrong and must be replaced by "atĂşn blanco". Since this mistake was not immediately obvious to the economic operators concerned, the Regulation in question should be corrected.
(2) Furthermore, pursuant to Article 6 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 142/98 of 21 January 1998 laying down detailed rules for granting the compensatory allowances for tuna intended for the processing industry(4), applications for payment of the allowance must be submitted by the producers' organisations concerned to the competent authorities not later than 45 days after the entry into force of the Regulation concerned, i.e. 6 August 1999. However, owing to the inconspicuous mistake in the Spanish language version of Regulation (EC) No 1282/1999, some operators may not have submitted applications for payment of the allowance. The full period of 45 days from the entry into force of this Regulation should accordingly be allowed to run in cases where the producers' organisations concerned have not yet submitted applications for payment of the allowance.
(3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fishery Products,
Concerns the Spanish language version only.
In cases where the producers' organisations concerned have not yet submitted applications for payment of the allowance, the period of 45 days provided for in Article 6(1) of Regulation (EC) No 142/98 shall only commence running from the entry into force of this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following 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.

Whereas establishments in third countries cannot be authorized to export fresh meat unless they satisfy the general and special conditions laid down in Directive 72/462/EEC;
Whereas Canada has forwarded, in accordance with Article 4 (3) of Directive 72/462/EEC, a list of establishments authorized to export to the Community;
Whereas the list of establishments in Canada approved for the import of fresh meat into the Community was drawn up originally in Commission Decision 87/258/EEC (3);
Whereas, however, to avoid interrupting existing patterns of trade abruptly, a list of establishments from which the Member States could continue to import fresh meat until 31 December 1987 was forwarded by the Commission to the Member States;
Whereas those establishments were to be subject to Community inspection before that date to ensure that the necessary adaptations having regard to Community regulations had been carried out and that, consequently, those establishments could appear on the list of Canadian establishments approved for the import of fresh meat into the Community;
Whereas it is physically impossible to complete inspection of Canadian establishments before 31 December 1987;
Whereas, in order to affect trade as little as possible, those transitional arrangements should be extended until 31 March 1988;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,
In Article 2 of Decision 87/258/EEC, '31 December 1987' is replaced by '31 March 1988'.
