COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 2814/84

of 4 October 1984

amending Regulation (EEC) No 2042/75 as regards the amount of the security for import licences for basic cereals in respect of which the levy is fixed in advance

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 1018/84 (2), and in particular Article 12 (2) thereof,

Whereas Article 12 (1) (b) of Regulation (EEC) No 2042/75 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2783/84 (4), determines the amount of the security for licences for products as specified in Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 and Article 1 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1418/76 (5); whereas the said Article 12 (1) (b) fixes at 3,63 ECU per tonne the amount of security in the case of import licences for products in respect of which the import levy is fixed in advance, with the exception of import licences for barley, oats, maize and sorghum, for which the amount of the security is fixed at 7,25 ECU per tonne; whereas these amounts are currently too small for imports of basic cereals taking into account fluctuations in prices on the world market, monetary movements and the period of validity of the import licences;

Whereas the securities for import licences for basic cereals in respect of which the levy is fixed in advance should therefore be increased temporarily until 31 July 1985;

Whereas, for reasons of consistency, the levels of security expressed in units of account in Article 12 of Regulation (EEC) No 2042/75 should be revised by applying the conversion coefficient fixed in Article 2 (2) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 706/79 (6);

Whereas the Management Committee for Cereals has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Article 12 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2042/75 is hereby replaced by the following:

'1. The amount of the security for licences for the products listed in Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 and Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 1418/76 shall be as follows:

(a) 0,60 ECU per tonne for import and export licences in respect of which the import levy, export refund or export levy is not fixed in advance;

(b) 3,63 ECU per tonne for import licences for products in respect of which the import levy is fixed in advance, with the exception of import licences for products falling within heading Nos 10.03, 10.04 and 10.07 and subheading 10.05 B of the Common Customs Tariff, for which the amount of the security shall be 7,25 ECU per tonne;
