Whereas Regulations (EEC) No 2771/75 (5), and (EEC) No 2777/75 (6), have not provided up to the present for a system of import licences; whereas in view of the increasing number of international agreements concerning inter alia trade in eggs and poultrymeat such a system involving the provision of security as a guarantee that importation will be effected should be introduced in these sectors too in order that a check may be kept on the volume of imports;

Whereas Article 9 of Regulation (EEC) No 2771/75 provides for refunds on exports to third countries of eggs and egg products also in the form of further processed products listed in the Annex thereto; whereas in order to facilitate future amendments to this list, it should be adopted in accordance with Article 17 of the said Regulation;

Whereas prepared goose or duck livers falling within CN code 1602 20 10 are covered by Regulation (EEC) No 827/68 (7); whereas these preparations should be brought under Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75 in order to be able to lay down common marketing standards for these products necessary for ensuring harmonized information of consumers and fair competition; whereas the Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 827/68 should be adapted accordingly,
