COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3892/92

of 23 December 1992

fixing, for the 1993 fishing year, the withdrawal and selling prices for fishery products listed in Annex I (A), (D) and (E) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 of 17 December 1992 on the common organization of the market in fishery and aquaculture products (1), and in particular Article 11 (3) and Article 13 thereof,

Whereas Article 11 (1) and Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 provide that the Community withdrawal and selling prices for each of the products listed respectively, in Annex I (A), (D) and in Annex I (E) are to be fixed by applying the conversion factor for the product category concerned to an amount equal to at least 70 % but not more than 90 % of the relevant guide price;

Whereas changes in production and marketing structures in the Community make it necessary to alter the basis for calculating the withdrawal and the sale prices in the Community as compared with those of the preceding fishing year;

Whereas Article 11 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 provides that the withdrawal price may be multiplied by conversion factors in landing areas which are very distant from main centres of consumption in the Community;

Whereas, with regard to sardines of the species Sardina pilchardus, special conditions have been adopted in the Act of Accession in order to ensure a progressive alignment of prices of sardines from the Atlantic on price levels of sardines from the Mediterranean; whereas the production structure and access to the market of Atlantic sardines are different to those for Mediterranean sardines and meet the special needs of the processing industry; whereas, with a view to the smooth application of the alignment of prices which does not artificially disturb market supply conditions, it is necessary to fix a special adaptation coefficient for size 3 of this product in the landing areas concerned in Spain and Portugal;

Whereas the guide prices for the 1993 fishing year were fixed for all the products in question by Council Regulation (EEC) No 3724/92 (2);

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fishery Products,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The percentages of the guide price which are used as a basis for calculating the Community withdrawal and selling prices shall be as shown in Annex I for the products concerned.

Article 2

The conversion factors which are used for calculating the Community withdrawal and selling prices for the products listed, respectively, in Annex I (A), (D) and in Annex I (E) of the Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92, shall be as shown in Annex II.

Article 3

The Community withdrawal and selling prices applicable for the 1993 fishing year and the products to which they refer, shall be as shown in Annex III.

Article 4

The withdrawal prices applicable for the 1993 fishing year in the landing areas which are very distant from the main centres of consumption in the Community and the products to which those prices relate, shall be as shown in Annex IV.

Article 5

This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 1993.

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