Whereas the upper limits for buying-in prices should be fixed at a level corresponding to the intervention price fixed by Council Regulation (EEC) No 1197/82 (2) for the 1982/83 marketing year, by application of the coefficients fixed in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2226/78 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2771/82 (4);

Whereas the upper and lower limits for the buying-in prices must be fixed in such a way as to allow intervention agencies to take account of the differences in value of meat resulting from the age, weight, conformation and finish of the animals concerned;

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3172/82 of 19 May 1982 fixing the intervention buying-in prices for hindquarters of beef applicable from 6 December 1982 (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 510/83 (6), should be repealed;
