COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 198/90
of 22 January 1990
amending Regulation (EEC) No 475/86 laying down general rules for the system for controlling the prices and the quantities of certain products in the oils and fats sector released for consumption in Spain
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Article 89 (1) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
Whereas Article 94 of the Act of Accession provides for a system for controlling the prices and the quantities of certain products in the oils and fats sector released for consumption in Spain;
Whereas the quantity of Spanish imports of animal oils and fats which are not subject to the control arrangements has increased to such an extent as to threaten the overall balance of the sector and the pursuit of the objectives set for the standstill period; whereas competition should be re-established between the various vegetable and animal oils and fats;
Whereas Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 475/86 (1), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1930/88 (2), provides for drawing up a forecast supply balance for the Spanish market, whereas Article 14 of that Regulation provides for compensatory aid to be granted for rape and sunflower seed used for the production of oil intended for export, up to a quantity not exceeding the positive balance, if any, arising when the forecast supply balance is drawn up; whereas the margarine industry and the mayonnaise industry should be permitted to obtain sunflower oil at the world market price, also up to a quantity not exceeding any positive balance arising when the forecast supply balance is drawn up;
Whereas provision should be made for extending the list of food industries which may obtain sunflower oil at the world market price, provided that such extension does not disturb the use of other vegetable oils, notably olive oil;
Whereas the wording of Regulation (EEC) No 475/86 should be adapted to the combined nomenclature,
