Whereas the abovementioned Regulation on the further education of persons engaged in agriculture is in conformity with Title II of the Directive and provides inter alia for basic and advanced training courses which satisfy the requirements imposed in respect of complete courses designed to enable persons engaged in agriculture generally to improve their occupational skills or to acquire new ones;
Whereas the EAGGF Committee has been consulted on the financial aspects;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Agricultural Structure,
The Regulation on the further education of persons engaged in agriculture forwarded by the Government of the Netherlands satisfies the conditions for financial contribution by the Community to common measures within the meaning of Article 8 of Directive 72/161/EEC.

Where it is noted, after the end of a marketing year, that the amount paid on account pursuant to the first subparagraph of Article 5 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 1837/80 is higher than the amount of the premium payable per ewe under the said marketing year, an amount corresponding to this difference shall be deducted from the amount of the premium payable per ewe to be paid, under the following marketing year, to producers of the less-favoured agricultural regions concerned.
Regulation (EEC) No 2643/80 is hereby repealed.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the market in the sugar sector (1), and in particular Article 27(5)(a) and (15) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 27(1) and (2) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that the differences between the prices in international trade for the products listed in Article 1(1)(a), (c), (d), (f), (g) and (h) of that Regulation and prices within the Community may be covered by an export refund where these products are exported in the form of goods listed in Annex V to that Regulation.
(2) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005 of 30 June 2005 implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 3448/93 as regards the system of granting export refunds on certain agricultural products exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex I to the Treaty, and the criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds, and the criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds (2), specifies the products for which a rate of refund is to be fixed, to be applied where these products are exported in the form of goods listed in Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001.

The fixing of a specific refund rate for the advance fixing of refunds is a measure which enables these various objectives to be met.
(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The rates of the refunds applicable to the basic products listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005 and in Article 1(1) and (2) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, and exported in the form of goods listed in Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, shall be fixed as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 23 December 2005.
