COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3673/84

of 21 December 1984

extending the Community surveillance of imports of certain carnations and cut roses originating in various countries

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 288/82 of 5 February 1982 on common rules for imports (1), and in particular Article 10 (3) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1765/82 of 30 June 1982 on common rules for imports from State-trading countries (2), and in particular Article 10 (3) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/82 of 30 June 1982 on common rules for imports from the People's Republic of China (3), and in particular Article 10 (4) thereof,

After consultation within the Committee provided for in Article 5 of the said Council Regulations,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3353/75 of 23 December 1975 (4), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3612/83 (5), introduced until 31 December 1984 Community surveillance of imports of certain live plants and floricultural products originating in various countries;

Whereas, in so far as carnations and asparagus foliage are concerned, the reasons which were the basis for Regulation (EEC) No 3353/75 are essentially still valid and consequently the surveillance regime should be extended to these products; whereas this surveillance is in line with certain measures proposed by the Commission to include, with regard to carnations and cut roses, in the common organization of markets for certain floricultural products which were dealt with in Regulation (EEC) No 234/68 (6),

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
