of 19 November 1982

amending Regulation (EEC) No 2328/82 fixing for the period 1982/83 a coefficient applicable to cereals exported in the form of certain spirituous beverages

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1451/82 (2), and in particular Article 16 (6) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1188/81 of 28 April 1981 laying down general rules for granting refunds adjusted in the case of cereals exported in the form of certain spirituous beverages and the criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds and amending Regulation (EEC) No 3035/80 concerning certain products not covered by Annex II to the Treaty (3), and in particular Article 12 thereof,

Whereas by Regulation (EEC) No 2328/82 (4) the Commission fixed the coefficient applicable to cereals exported in the form of malt whisky for the period 1 August 1982 to 31 July 1983;

Whereas there was an error in the determination by the United Kingdom authorities of the quantities of malt whisky exported; whereas that error led to an error in the determination, by the Commission, of the coefficient; whereas the coefficient should be redetermined on the basis of the corrected figures; whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2328/82 should therefore be amended;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
