Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 232/2013
of 15 March 2013

(2)
The withdrawal prices may be multiplied by adjustment factors in landing areas which are very distant from the main centres of consumption in the Union. The guide prices for the 2013 fishing year were fixed for all the products concerned by Council Regulation (EU) No 1242/2012.
(3)
In order not to hinder the operation of the intervention system in the year 2013, this Regulation should apply retroactively from 1 January 2013.

## 2 

The Union withdrawal and selling prices applicable for the 2013 fishing year and the products to which they relate are set out in Annex II.

## 3 

The withdrawal prices applicable for the 2013 fishing year in landing areas which are very distant from the main centres of consumption in the Union, the adjustment factors used for calculating those prices and the products to which those prices relate are set out in Annex III.

## 4 

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 January 2013.
