COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1418/97 of 22 July 1997 fixing the guide price for wine for the 1997/98 wine year

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 of 16 March 1987 on the common organization of the market in wine (1), and in particular Article 27 (5) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (2),

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (3),

Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (4),

Whereas, when the guide prices for the various types of table wine are fixed, account should be taken of the objectives of the common agricultural policy; whereas the objectives of the common agricultural policy are, in particular, to ensure a fair standard of living for the agricultural community, to assure the availability of supplies and to ensure that supplies reach consumers at reasonable prices;

Whereas, if these objectives are to be achieved, it is of prime importance that the gap between production and demand should not be opened further; whereas, to that end, the guide prices for the 1997/98 wine year should be set at the same levels as the previous year;

Whereas the guide prices, as defined in Annex III to Regulation (EEC) No 822/87, must be fixed for each type of table wine representative of Community production,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

For the 1997/98 wine year, the guide prices for table wine shall be as follows:

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
