COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 670/83

of 23 March 1983

on transitional measures concerning the application of certain monetary compensatory amounts in the trade of certain Member States

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 974/71 of 12 May 1971 on certain measures of conjunctural policy to be taken in agriculture following the temporary widening of the margins of fluctuation for the currencies of certain Member States (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3439/82 (2), and in particular Article 6 thereof,

Whereas new central rates have been fixed for the currencies of certain Member States;

Whereas the new rates lead to a substantial change in the monetary compensatory amounts applicable in some Member States; whereas this change could give rise to speculation in certain particularly sensitive sectors, resulting in deflections of trade;

Whereas, in order to avoid such deflections, it should be laid down that in the case of products liable to such speculation the compensatory amounts applicable on 23 March 1983 are to continue to apply beyond that date;

Whereas in the light of experience gained with regard to the processing of butter, for this particular product, the concept of obtaining this product within the meaning of this Regulation should be specified;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of all the relevant management committees,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
