COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1206/82

of 18 May 1982

fixing a guarantee threshold for tomato concentrate and whole peeled tomatoes

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 516/77 of 14 March 1977 on the common organization of the market in products processed from fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1118/81 (2), and in particular Article 3a (5) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas Article 3a of Regulation (EEC) No 516/77 introduced a system of production aid for certain products processed from fruit and vegetables; whereas, in the event of the situation provided for in paragraph 5 of the said Article arising, it is possible to limit the grant of production aid to a quantity determined on the basis of average Community production in the the most recent years for which reliable data are available;

Whereas there is a risk that this situation may arise for tomato concentrate and whole peeled tomatoes; whereas, at this stage, a guarantee threshold should be fixed to cover the said products; whereas provision should be made for taking appropriate measures should the said threshold be exceeded;

Whereas, for the products in question, production characteristics are such that the threshold in question should be expressed in terms of fresh products employed,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

1. With effect from the 1982/83 marketing year, a production threshold shall be fixed for each marketing year:

- to a quantity of tomato concentrate falling within subheading ex 20.02 C of the Common Customs Tariff corresponding to 2 987 850 tonnes of fresh tomatoes,

- to a quantity of whole peeled tomatoes falling within subheading ex 20.02 C of the Common Customs Tariff corresponding to 1 307 150 tonnes of fresh tomatoes.

2. If the thresholds referred to in paragraph 1 are exceeded, the Council, on a proposal from the Commission, shall take the appropriate measures.

Article 2

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

It shall apply with effect from 1 July 1982.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 18 May 1982.
