COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 186/85

of 24 January 1985

amending Regulation (EEC) No 1303/83 laying down special detailed rules for the application of the system of import licences and advance fixing certificates for products processed from fruit and vegetables

THE COMMISSION 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 988/84 (2), and in particular Article 9 (3) and 10 (3) thereof,

Whereas, under Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1303/83 (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1701/84 (4), import licences are required for mushrooms in brine falling within Common Customs Tariff subheading 07.03 E and for mushrooms in vinegar falling within Common Customs Tariff subheading 20.01 C, it being understood that when protective measures are applied against imports of the cultivated product they remain subject to the system of import licensing during the period of application of such measures;

Whereas the protective measures previously introduced have been discontinued; whereas so that the trend of imports can be closely followed, import licence arrangements should be introduced whereby four separate types of import licence are issued, namely for cultivated mushrooms in brine, mushrooms in brine other than cultivated mushrooms, cultivated mushrooms in vinegar and mushrooms in vinegar other than cultivated mushrooms;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Products Processed from Fruit and Vegetables,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
