COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 888/93 of 15 April 1993 amending Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1760/83 on special detailed rules for the application of the system of advance-fixing certificates for certain agricultural products exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex II to the Treaty

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2071/92 (2), and in particular Article 17 (4) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 of 30 June 1992 on the common organization of the market in cereals (3), and in particular Article 26 (3) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3035/80 of 11 November 1980 laying down general rules for granting export refunds on certain agricultural products exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex II to the Treaty and the criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds (4), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3381/90 (5), and in particular Article 7 thereof,

Whereas Article 4 (1), second indent, of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1760/83 (6), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3326/92 (7), lays down maximum durations of validity for advance-fixing certificates for products covered by the common organization of the market in milk and milk products until the end of the sixth month following that of issue; whereas the skimmed-milk market situation makes it necessary to introduce surveillance of the applications for advance-fixing certificates for milk powder exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex II to the Treaty;

Whereas the new agricultural prices introduced by Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 will apply to cereals at the beginning of the 1993/94 marketing year; whereas some of these prices are much lower than those laid down for the 1992/93 marketing year; whereas it is therefore necessary to introduce surveillance of the advance-fixing certificates;

Whereas the measures laid down in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinions of all the Management Committees concerned,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
