COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3358/84
of 30 November 1984
fixing the export refunds on syrups and certain other sugar products exported in
the natural state
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No
1785/81 of 30 June 1981 on the common organization
of the markets in the sugar sector ('), as last amended
by Regulation (EEC) No 606/82 (2), and in particular
Article 19 (4) thereof,
Having regard to the opinion of the Monetary
Committee,
Whereas Article 19 of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81
provides that the difference between quotations or
prices on the world market for the products listed in
Article 1 ( 1 ) (d) of that Regulation and prices for those
products within the Community may be covered by an
export refund ;
Whereas Article 8 of Council Regulation (EEC) No
766/68 of 18 June 1968 laying down general rules for
granting export refunds on sugar (3), as last amended
by Regulation (EEC) No 1489/76 (4), provides that the
export refund on 100 kilograms of the products listed
in Article 1 ( 1 ) (d) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 is
equal to the basic amount multiplied by the sucrose
content, including, where appropriate , other sugars
expressed as sucrose ; whereas the sucrose content of
the product in question is determined in accordance
with Article 13 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No
394/70 of 2 March 1970 on detailed rules for granting
export refunds on sugar (^, as last amended by Regula
tion (EEC) No 1467/77 (6) ;
Whereas Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 766/68
provides that the basic amount of the refund on
sorbose exported in the natural state must be equal to
the basic amount of the refund less one-hundredth of
the production refund applicable , pursuant to Council
Regulation (EEC) No 1400/78 of 20 June 1978 laying
down general rules for the production refund on sugar
used in the chemical industry Q, to the products listed
in the Annex to the last mentioned Regulation ;
Whereas the basic amount of the refund on the other
products listed in Article 1 ( 1 ) (d) of Regulation (EEC)
No 1785/81 exported in the natural state must be
equal to one-hundredth of an amount which takes
account, on the one hand, of the difference between
the intervention price for white sugar for the Commu
nity areas without deficit for the month for which the
basic amount is fixed and quotations or prices for
white sugar on the world market and, on the other, of
the need to establish a balance between the use of
Community basic products in the manufacture of
processed goods for export to third countries and the
use of third country products brought in under inward
processing arrangements ;
Whereas the application of the basic amount may be
limited to some of the products listed in Article 1 ( 1 )
(d) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 ;
Whereas Article 19 of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81
makes provision for setting refunds for export in the
natural state of products referred to in Article 1 ( 1 ) ( f)
and (g) of that Regulation ; whereas the refund must be
fixed per 100 kilograms of dry matter, taking account
of the export refund for products within subheading
17.02 B II a) of the Common Customs Tariff and for
products referred to in Article 1 ( 1 ) (d) of Regulation
(EEC) No 1785/81 and of the economic aspects of the
intended exports ; whereas the refund is to be granted
only for products complying with the conditions in
Article 3 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No
1469/77 of 30 June 1977 laying down rules for
applying the levy and the refund in respect of isoglu
cose and amending Regulation (EEC) No 192/75 (8) ;
Whereas, if the refund system is to operate normally,
refunds should be calculated on the following basis :
— in the case of currencies which are maintained in
relation to each other at any given moment within
a band of 2,25 % , a rate of exchange based on
their central rate, multiplied by the coefficient
provided for in Article 2b (2) of Regulation (EEC)
