of 15 November 2000

amending Regulation (EC) No 1685/95 on arrangements for issuing export licences for wine sector products

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine(1), as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1622/2000(2), and in particular Articles 63 and 64 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 2425/2000 of 31 October 2000 amending Sector 15 of Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 establishing an agricultural product nomenclature for export refunds(3) adapts the nomenclature in question to the new situation in the wine sector since the entry into force of Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999. The main effect of this adaptation is the abolition of a number of codes for product descriptions. As a result of this it is also necessary to adapt Annexes I and Ia to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1685/95(4), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2739/1999(5), which groups the codes in product categories and groups.

(2) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
