Commission Regulation (EEC) No 4155/87

of 22 December 1987

amending certain Regulations on the application of the common organization of the market in eggs as a consequence of the introduction of the combined nomenclature

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tarifff1, as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3985/87f2, and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 15 (1) thereof,

Whereas, in accordance with the second subparagraph of Article 15 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87, adaptations of a technical nature of Community acts referring to the tariff or statistical nomenclature are to be carried out by the Commission;

Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 2771/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in eggsf3 was amended by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 4000/87f4, which adapted in accordance with the combined nomenclature the descriptions of the goods and the tariff headings appearing therein;

Whereas numerous other Regulations in the eggs sector must be adapted technically to take account of the use of the new combined nomenclature based on the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System which is intended to replace the Convention of 15 December 1950 on Nomenclature for the Classification of Goods in Customs Tariffs;

Whereas, owing to the number and the content of the texts calling for such adaptations, all the Regulations to be adapted should be grouped within a single amending Regulation;

Whereas, at the time of this adaptation of Commission Regulation 164/67/EECf5, certain factors in the calculation of the sluice-gate prices which still appear in units of account in the said Regulation should be expressed in ECU using the coefficient 1,208953 referred to in Article 13 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1676/85f6, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1636/87f7,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
