COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1744/92 of 30 June 1992 amending Regulation (EEC) No 1008/86 laying down detailed rules for production refunds applicable to potato starch

THE COUNCIL 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), and in particular Article 11a (2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (2),

Whereas, in view of the special situation in the potato-starch sector, Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 makes provision for taking whatever measures may be necessary in that sector;

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1008/86 (3), provides for the payment of a premium to potato-starch producers for the 1990/91 and 1991/92 marketing year;

Whereas the specific constraints, in particular of a structural nature, affecting the potato-starch industry justify the maintenance for the 1992/93 marketing year of a corrective provision in favour of that industry, providing for the payment of a suitable special premium;

Whereas the grant of that premium to the potato-starch industry must be subject to the payment of the minimum price to the potato producers,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 1008/86 is hereby replaced by the following:

'Article 2

For the 1992/93 marketing year, the Member States shall pay producers of potato starch a premium of ECU 18,67 per tonne of potato starch produced.

The premium shall be granted on condition that the potato-starch manufacturer has paid the potato producer the minimum price laid down in Article 1.'

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 1 July 1992.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Luxembourg, 30 June 1992.
