COMMISSCOMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3432/85

of 5 December 1985

on the statistical threshold in the external trade statistics of the Community and statistics of trade between Member States

THETHE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1736/75 of 24 June 1975 on the external trade statistics of the Community and statistics of trade between Member States (1), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2845/77 (2), and in particular Articles 24 and 41 thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1445/72 of 24 April 1972 on the nomenclature of goods for external trade statistics of the Community and statistics of trade between Member States (NIMEXE) (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3065/75 (4), and in particular Article 5 (2) and (3) thereof,

Whereas, since the adoption of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3581/81 of 14 December 1981 on the statistical threshold in the external trade statistics of the Community and statistics of trade between Member States (5), prices have developed in such a way that it is necessary to raise the statistical threshold in order to enable the Member States to discontinue the statistical recording of consignments of minor importance if they wish to make use of this option for reasons of economy;

Whereas the statistical threshold fixed in ECU should be converted into national currencies; whereas the rate of conversion for each currency in relation to the ECU varies from day to day; whereas to determine the value of statistical threshold the application of a fixed rate of conversion is required; whereas this latter rate may be based on the average exchange rates during the period July 1984 to June 1985;

Whereas in the interest of simplification the amounts so obtained should be rounded off;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on External Trade Statistics,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

The statistical threshold, within the meaning of Article 24 of Regulation (EEC) No 1736/75, expressed in value, is fixed at 800 ECU.

Article 2

The statistical threshold, fixed by Article 1, expressed in national currencies, shall not exceed:

1.2.3 // for the Belgium-Luxembourg Economic Union: // Bfrs/Lfrs // 36 000 // for Denmark: // Dkr // 6 500 // for France: // FF // 5 500 // for Germany: // DM // 1 800 // for Greece: // Dr // 75 000 // for Ireland: // £Irl // 575 // for Italy: // Lit // 1 100 000 // for the Netherlands: // Fl // 2 000 // for Portugal: // Esc // 100 000 // for Spain: // Pta // 100 000 // for the United Kingdom: // £ // 475

Article 3

This Regulation shall apply for the first time to the statistics relating to the data for 1986.
