of 30 March 1989

establishing the list of products subject to the supplementary trade mechanism in the fresh fruit and vegetables sector

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Article 81 (3) thereof,

Whereas Article 81 (2) of the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal makes products covered by Council Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 of 18 May 1972 on the common organization of the market in fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2238/88 (2), subject to the supplementary trade mechanism from 1 January 1990 as regards trade between Spain and the Community as constituted at 31 December 1985; whereas, however, Article 81 (3) (b) of the Act permits certain products to the withdrawn from the list in particular nine months at the latest before the expiry of the fourth year following accession; whereas, for the sake of clarity a list of products which are currently sensitive in imports from Spain into the Community as constituted at 31 December 1985 and which must remain subject to the abovementioned mechanism should be drawn up; whereas, however, maintaining the application of the mechanism in question does not appear justified in the case of imports into Spain from the rest of the Community market;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the ad hoc committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
