COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1741/92 of 30 June 1992 fixing the specific aid applicable in Portugal for cereals during the 1992/93 marketing year

THE COUNCIL 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,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3653/90 of 11 December 1990 introducing transitional measures governing the common organization of the market in cereals and rice in Portugal (1), and in particular Article 3 (3) thereof,

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3653/90 introduces a degressive system of aid to offset producers' losses of income as a result of the alignment of the Portuguese prices on the Community prices from the beginning of the second stage of accession; whereas, pursuant to Article 3 of that Regulation, the first adjustment to that aid should be made for the 1992/93 marketing year;

Whereas the alignment of the intervention price of common wheat in Portugal on the level of Community prices leads to a consequent increase in aid for that cereal,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

- common wheat: ECU 106,21/tonne,

- grain sorghum: ECU 50,03/tonne.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

It shall apply from the 1992/93 marketing year.

Done at Luxembourg, 30 June 1992.

For the Council

The President
