COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 687/90
of 21 March 1990
providing for the grant of compensation to producers' organizations in respect of tuna delivered to the canning industry during the period 13 November to 31 December 1988
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3796/81 of 29 December 1981 on the common organization of the market in fishery products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2886/89 (2), and in particular Article 17 a (10) thereof,
Whereas the provisions of Regulation (EEC) No 3796/81 governing the compensation were amended with effect from 13 November 1988 by Council Regulation (EEC) No 3468/88 (3); whereas that date divides into two periods the last calendar quarter of 1988;
Whereas the compensation is granted, under certain conditions, to Community tuna producer's organizations in respect of quantities of tuna delivered to the canning industry, during period for which prices were recorded, where the average quarterly price recorded on the Community market and the free-at-frontier price are both lower than 93 % of the Community producer price;
Whereas under these arrangements the situation on the Community market should be examined in order to determine the maximum amount of the compensation, in accordance with the first and second indents of Article 17 a (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 3796/81, for the period 13 November to 31 December 1988; whereas this examination has shown that for some species and presentations of the product in question, during the period concerned, both the average quarterly market price and the free-at-frontier price referred to in Article 17 a of Regulation (EEC) No 3796/81 were lower than 93 % of the Community producer price in force as determined by Council Regulation (EEC) No 3765/87 of 14 December 1987 fixing the Community producer price for tuna intended for the canning industry for the 1988 fishing year (4);
Whereas the quantities eligible for compensation, within the meaning of Article 17 a (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3796/81, may not under any circumstances exceed, for the quarter concerned, the limite laid down in paragraph 4 of that Article;
Whereas in the case of albacore weighing more than 10 kilograms none of those limits is exceeded and consequently there is no need to determine the maximum quantities in respect of which the allowance may be granted;
Whereas in the case of albacore weighing not more than 10 kilograms, on the other hand, the quantities sold and delivered during the period concerned within the meaning of Article 17 a (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3796/81 were greater than those sold and delivered during the same period of the preceding three fishing years as referred to in the second indent of paragraph 4 of that Article; whereas they should therefore be limited to the average of the quantities sold and delivered during the same period of the fishing years 1985, 1986 and 1987 and the quantities granted to each producers' organization should be determined in accordance with Article 17 a (6) of Regulation (EEC) No 3796/81;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fishery Products,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article1¶
