Whereas Albania has seen its economic situation decline to the point where this country is facing problems similar to those of countries which in the past have benefited from generalized preferences;
Whereas Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania have regained their independence and have also seen their economic situation decline to the point where these three countries are facing problems similar to those of countries which in the past have benefited from  generalized preferences;
Whereas Albania, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania should therefore benefit, on a transitional basis, from the system of generalized preferences in order to increase their exports with a view to stimulating their economic development, to promote their  industrialization and to accelerate their growth rate;
Whereas the benefit of tariff preferences has been suspended on a temporary basis with respect to the Republic of Korea on account of the discriminatory treatment applied in that country to the Community in the sphere of intellectual property; whereas,  that discriminatory treatment having been terminated, there are no grounds for maintaining the suspension,
The following shall be added to Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 3587/91 (2):
'Annex III part A, of Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90, Annex V, part A, of Regulation (EEC) No 3832/90, Annex III, part A, of Regulation (EEC) No 3833/90, shall be supplemented by the mention of the following countries:
053 Estonia
054 Latvia
055 Lithuania
070 Albania.'
The text of footnote (c) to Annex II to Regulation (EEC) No 3833/90 shall be replaced by the following:
'(c) Preferences are not to be granted in respect of products marked with two asterisks originating in Estonia, Greenland, Latvia, Lithuania or Poland.'
Paragraph 3 of Article 1 of Regulations (EEC) No 3381/90, (EEC) No 3832/90 and (EEC) No 3833/90 shall be deleted.
The following shall be added to Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 3588/91 (3):

Whereas Council Regulation (EC) No 406/97 of 20 December 1996 laying down for 1997 certain conservation and management measures for fishery resources in the Regulatory Area as defined in the Convention on Future Multilateral Cooperation in the North West Atlantic Fisheries (3), provides for Greenland halibut quotas for 1997;
Whereas, in order to ensure compliance with the provisions relating to the quantitative limitations on catches of stocks subject to quotas, it is necessary for the Commission to fix the date by which catches made by vessels flying the flag of a Member State are deemed to have exhausted the quota allocated;

Commission Regulation (EC) No 1911/2001
of 28 September 2001
fixing the production refund on white sugar used in the chemical industry
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector(1), and in particular Article 7(5) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Pursuant to Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, production refunds may be granted on the products listed in Article 1(1)(a) and (f) of that Regulation, on syrups listed in Article 1(1)(d) thereof and on chemically pure fructose covered by CN code 1702 50 00 as an intermediate product, that are in one of the situations referred to in Article 23(2) of the Treaty and are used in the manufacture of certain products of the chemical industry.
(2) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1265/2001 of 27 June 2001 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 as regards granting the production refund on certain sugar products used in the chemical industry(2) lays down the rules for determining the production refunds and specifies the chemical products the basic products used in the manufacture of which attract a production refund. Articles 5, 6 and 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1265/2001 provide that the production refund applying to raw sugar, sucrose syrups and unprocessed isoglucose is to be derived from the refund fixed for white sugar in accordance with a method of calculation specific to each basic product.
(3) Article 9 of Regulation (EC) No 1265/2001 provides that the production refund on white sugar is to be fixed at monthly intervals commencing on the first day of each month. It may be adjusted in the intervening period where there is a significant change in the prices for sugar on the Community and/or world markets. The application of those provisions results in the production refund fixed in Article 1 of this Regulation for the period shown.
(4) As a result of the amendment to the definition of white sugar and raw sugar in Article 1(2)(a) and (b) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, flavoured or coloured sugars or sugars containing any other added substances are no longer deemed to meet those definitions and should thus be regarded as "other sugar". However, in accordance with Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 1265/2001, they attract the production refund as basic products. A method should accordingly be laid down for calculating the production refund on these products by reference to their sucrose content.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The production refund on white sugar referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1265/2001 shall be equal to EUR 36,067/100 kg net.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 October 2001.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
