THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community;

Having regard to Council Regulation No 122/67/EEC (1) of 13 June 1967 on the common organization of the market in eggs, as last amended by the Act (2) concerning the conditions of Accession and the Adjustments to the Treaties, hereinafter called the "Act", and in particular Article 15 thereof;

Having regard to Council Regulation No 123/67/EEC (3) of 13 June 1967 on the common organization of the market in poultrymeat, as last amended by the Act, and in particular Article 15 thereof;

Having regard to Council Regulation No 170/67/EEC (4) of 27 June 1967 on the common system of trade for ovalbumin and lactalbumin and repealing Regulation No 48/67/EEC, as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1081/71 (5), and in particular Article 9 thereof;

Whereas Article 15 of Regulation No 122/67/EEC and of Regulation No 123/67/EEC and Article 9 of Regulation No 170/67/EEC provides that the Member States and the Commission shall communicate to each other the information necessary for implementing those Regulations ; whereas, as market conditions have changed as a result of the accession of Denmark, Ireland and the United Kingdom to the European Communities, it appears advisable to define more closely than hitherto the obligations of the Member States with regard to communications, in order to ensure smooth implementation of the market organizations;

Whereas, according to Article 8 of Regulation No 122/67/EEC and of Regulation No 123/67/EEC and to Article 5 (3) of Regulation No 170/67/EEC, where the free-at-frontier offer price falls below the sluice-gate price, additional amounts are to be fixed ; whereas Article 5 of Regulation No 163/67/EEC (6) on fixing the additional amount for imports of poultryfarming products from third countries, as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2224/70 (7), obliges Member States to communicate all information required for the assessment of price trends on Community and third-country markets ; whereas it has proved necessary to define in precise terms the details relating to such communications;

Whereas, according to Article 9 of Regulation No 122/67/EEC and of Regulation No 123/67/EEC, to the extent necessary to allow Community exporters a share in world trade, the difference between world market prices and prices within the Community may be covered by an export refund ; whereas Council Regulation No 175/67/EEC (8) of 27 June 1967 laying down general rules for granting export refunds on eggs and criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2683/72 (9), and Council Regulation No 176/67/EEC (10) of 27 June 1967 laying down general rules for granting export refunds on poultrymeat and criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds, as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2689/72 (11), provide for the assessment of price differences between the Community and world markets;

Whereas, in order to attain this objective, there should be regular communications by Member States of, on the one hand, market prices in the Community and, on the other hand, the quantities and prices of products exported and offers made from otherexporting countries on those third-country markets; (1)OJ No 117, 19.6.1967, p. 2293/67.

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1373/70 (1) of 10 July 1970 on common detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences and advance-fixing certificates for agricultural products subject to a single price system, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 571/73 (2), laid down common detailed rules for various sectors of agricultural products;

Whereas these were supplemented by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2637/70 (3) of 23 December 1970 on special detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences and advancefixing certificates for agricultural products, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 571/73, which replaced Commission Regulation (EEC) No 570/70 (4) of 26 March 1970 laying down detailed rules for the advance-fixing of export refunds on eggs, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2637/70, in all respects except that of the obligation of the Member States to send communications ; whereas it is consequently appropriate to reframe the provisions relating to the obligation of communication;
