COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 2800/95 of 29 November 1995 amending Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 establishing a support system for producers of certain arable crops

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Articles 42 and 43 thereof,

Having regard to the Act of Accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),

Having regard to the Opinion of the European Parliament (2),

Whereas Article 3 (6) of Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 (3) provides for a specific measure in the event that a Member State chooses to establish production regions which do not correspond to the base areas, in order to ensure that the yields resulting from the plan applied in 1993 are complied with; whereas, in the case of the new Member States, which were not subject to this measure in 1993, it is necessary to ensure that the yields resulting from the plan applied in the first year of accession are complied with;

Whereas, within the framework of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), the European Community has concluded agreements with certain third countries on certain oilseeds; whereas those agreements were approved in Council Decisions 93/355/EEC (4) and 94/87/EC (5); whereas those agreements have been applied within the framework of Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92;

Whereas the aforementioned agreements provide that, in the event of an enlargement of the Community, the area used to calculate the oilseeds maximum guaranteed area is to be increased by an area not greater than the average area harvested in each new Member State in the three years immediately preceding accession;

Whereas it is necessary to allocate to the new Member States national reference areas for oilseeds;

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 introduces a support scheme for producers of certain arable crops; whereas certain legislative provisions of the scheme applicable prior to that Regulation have therefore redundant; whereas, in order to clarify and simplify Community legislation, those provisions should be repealed,
