THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Whereas Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 on the common organization of the market in fruit and vegetables (2), provides that the conformity of fruit and vegetables with the quality standards laid down is to be checked by sampling; whereas

Article 9

of that Regulation extends this provision to imported products;

Whereas experience has shown that a number of third countries' own inspection authorities can carry out these product conformity checks under satisfactory conditions; whereas, as a result, and for the sake of sound administration and commercial management, provision should be made for the authorization of such authorities to carry out conformity checks as if they had been carried out in a place of shipment in the Community;

Whereas, to this end, Article 10 of Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 should be supplemented,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
