Commission Regulation (EC) No 1103/2000of 25 May 2000providing for the granting of compensation to producers' organisations in respect of tuna delivered to the processing industry from 1 July to 30 September 1999 THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 of 17 December 1992 on the common organisation of the market in fishery and aquaculture productsOJ L 388, 31.12.1992, p. 1., as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 3318/94OJ L 350, 31.12.1994, p. 15., and in particular Article 18(6) thereof,Whereas:(1)The compensatory allowance provided for in Article 18 of Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 is to be granted under certain conditions to Community tuna producers' organisations in respect of quantities of tuna delivered to the processing industry during the calendar quarter for which prices have been recorded, where both the average quarterly selling price recorded on the Community market and the free-at-frontier price plus any applicable countervailing charge are lower than 91 % of the Community producer price for the product concerned.(2)An examination of the situation on the Community market has shown that in the period 1 July to 30 September 1999 both the average quarterly selling price and the free-at-frontier price as referred to in Article 18 of Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 for yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) weighing more than 10 kg each, yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) not weighing more than 10 kg each and skipjack or stripe-bellied bonito (Euthynnus (Katsuwonus) pelamis) were lower than 91 % of the Community producer price in force laid down in Council Regulation (EC) No 2763/98 of 17 December 1998 fixing, for the 1999 fishing year, the Community producer price for tuna intended for the industrial manufacture of products falling within CN code 1604OJ L 346, 22.12.1998, p. 5..(3)The amount of the allowance provided for in Article 18(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 may not in any case exceed either the difference between the triggering threshold and the average selling price of the product in question on the Community market or a flat-rate amount equivalent to 12 % of that threshold.(4)The quantities on which compensation as provided for in Article 18(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 is payable may under no circumstances exceed the limits laid down in paragraph 3 of that Article for the quarter concerned.(5)The quantities of yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) not weighing more than 10 kg each and skipjack or stripe-bellied bonito (Euthynnus (Katsuwonus) pelamis) sold and delivered to the processing industry established in the customs territory of the Community were higher during the quarter concerned than the quantities sold and delivered during the same quarter of the three previous fishing years. Since those quantities exceed the limit set in Article 18(3) of Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92, the total quantities of those products on which compensation is payable should therefore be limited.(6)In accordance with the ceilings laid down in Article 18(4) of Regulation (EEC) No 3759/92 for the purpose of calculating the allowance to be granted to each producers' organisation, the quantities on which the allowance is payable should be allocated among the producers' organisations concerned in proportion to the quantities produced by them in the same quarter of the 1996, 1997 and 1998 fishing years.(7)A decision should therefore be taken to grant the allowance on the products in question for the period 1 July to 30 September 1999.(8)The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fishery Products,HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
