Whereas Article 1 (1) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 770/68 (3) of 18 June 1968 on the advance fixing of levies on sugar provides that the levy applicable to imports of molasses shall be fixed in advance if importation is necessary to ensure supplies to specified areas of the Community;
Whereas it can be assumed from the present supply situation for molasses that production from the 1969 crop will fall short of foreseeable consumption in certain large areas in the north of the Community ; whereas a decision must therefore be taken to apply advance fixing to levies on molasses until such time as the supply situation changes;

Advance fixing of the import levies shall apply to the products listed in Article 1 (1) (c) of Regulation No 1009/67/EEC.
