REGULATION (EEC) No 565/68 OF THE COMMISSION of 24 April 1968 on the non-fixing of and additional amounts for slaughtered fowls, ducks and geese imported from Poland THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community; Having regard to Council Regulation No 123/67/EEC 1 of 13 June 1967 on the common organisation of the market in poultrymeat; Having regard to Commission Regulation No 163/67/EEC 2 of 26 June 1967 on fixing the additional amount for imports of poultry-farming products from third countries, and in particular Article 4 thereof; Whereas, where the free-at-frontier offer price for a product falls below the sluice-gate price, the levy on that product must be increased by an additional amount equal to the difference between the sluice-gate price and that offer price; Whereas the levy is not, however, increased by this additional amount as regards third countries which are prepared and in a position to guarantee that the price for imports into the Community of products originating in and coming from their territory will not be lower than the sluice-gate price and that any deflection of trade will be avoided; Whereas, by letter dated 24 April 1968, the Government of the Polish People's Republic stated that it was prepared to give such guarantee for exports to the Community of slaughtered fowls, ducks and geese : whereas it will ensure that such exports are made only by the State foreign trade agency Animex ; whereas it will ensure also that deliveries of the above-mentioned products are not made at free-at-Community-frontier prices lower than the sluice-gate prices valid on the day of customs clearance ; whereas, to that end it will see to it in particular that the State foreign trade agency Animex does not take any action which might indirectly bring about prices lower than the sluice-gate prices, such as taking over marketing or transport costs, granting reductions, resorting to linked transactions or any other action having similar effect; Whereas the Government of the Polish People's Republic has, furthermore, stated that it is prepared to communicate regularly to the Commission, through the State foreign trade agency Animex, details of exports of slaughtered fowls, ducks and geese to the Community and to enable the Commission to exercise continuous supervision of the effectiveness of the measures it has taken; Whereas questions affecting observance of the guarantee given have been discussed in detail with representatives of the Polish People's Republic ; whereas, following these discussions it may be assumed that the Polish People's Republic is in a position to abide by its guarantee ; whereas, consequently, there is no need to levy an additional amount on imports of the above-mentioned products originating in and coming from the Polish People's Republic; Whereas the Management Committee for Poultrymeat and Eggs has not delivered an Opinion within the time limit set by its Chairman; HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: Article 1 The levies fixed in accordance with Article 4 of Regulation No 123/67/EEC shall not be increased by an additional amount in respect of imports of the following products falling within sub-heading No ex 02.02 of the Common Customs Tariff originating in and coming from the Polish People's Republic: 1OJ No 117, 19.6.1967, p. 2301/67. 2OJ No 129, 28.6.1967, p. 2577/67.
