COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3236/87

of 29 October 1987

amending Regulation (EEC) No 3472/85 on the buying in and storage of olive oil by intervention agencies

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC of 22 September 1966 on the establishment of a common organization of the market in oils and fats (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1915/87 (2), and in particular Article 12 (4) thereof,

Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1915/87 of 2 July 1987 amends the descriptions of olive oil and olivepomace oil with effect from 1 November 1987; whereas the amended descriptions should be used;

Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1916/87 (3) which, in particular, fixes for 1987/88, the intervention prices for olive oil in Spain and Portugal, results in an intervention price in Spain still markedly different from the common price; whereas, in these circumstances, the special reduction provided for in Regulation (EEC) No 3472/85 (4), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3635/86 (5), should, subject to adjustment in the light of the new ratio of intervention prices, continue to apply in the case of Spain;

Whereas in the interests of clarity the Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 3472/85 should be replaced;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 3742/85 is replaced by the Annex to this Regulation.
