COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1487/95 of 28 June 1995 establishing the supply balance for the Canary Islands for products from the pigmeat sector and fixing the aid for products coming from the Community

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1601/92 of 15 June 1992 introducing specific measures for the Canary Islands concerning certain agricultural products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 3290/94 (2), and in particular Articles 3 (4) and 4 (4) thereof,

Whereas in application of Articles 2, 3 and 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 1601/92, it is necessary to determine for the pigmeat sector and for the 1995/96 marketing year, on the one hand, the quantities of meat and processed products of the forecast supply balance with benefit from an exemption from the duty on imports from third countries or from an aid for deliveries originating from the rest of the Community, and on the other hand, the quantities of pure-bred breeding animals originating in the Community which benefit from an aid with a view to developing the potential for production in the archipelago of the Canaries;

Whereas it is appropriate to fix the amount of the aids referred to above for the supply to the archipelago, on the one hand, in meat and, on the other hand, of breeding animals originating in the rest of the Community; whereas these aids must be fixed taking into account in particular the costs of supply from the world market, conditions due to the geographical situation of the archipelago and the basis of the current prices on export to third countries for the animals or products concerned;

Whereas the common detailed rules for the implementation of the supply arrangements for the Canary Islands are adopted in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2790/94 (3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 2883/94 (4);

Whereas, in the interests of clarity, Commission Regulation (EC) No 752/95 of 3 April 1995 fixing the aid for the supply of products from the pigmeat sector to the Canary Islands under the arrangements provided for in Articles 2 to 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 1601/92 (5) should be repealed;

Whereas in application of Regulation (EEC) No 1601/92, the supply arrangements will apply from 1 July; whereas, therefore, this Regulation should apply immediately;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
