THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 715/90 of 5 March 1990 on the arrangements applicable to agricultural products and certain goods resulting from the processing of agricultural products originating in the ACP States or in the overseas countries and territories (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2484/94 (2), and in particular Article 4 (3) thereof,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 578/94 (3) makes provision for the breakdown of imports for 1994 under the abovementioned Regulation;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
