of 2 May 2001
amending Regulation (EEC) No 2257/92 laying down detailed rules for implementing the specific arrangements for supplying Madeira with certain vegetable oils and establishing the provisional supply balance
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1600/92 of 15 June 1992 concerning specific measures for the Azores and Madeira relating to certain agricultural products(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2826/2000(2), and in particular Article 10 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Pursuant to Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 1600/92, Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2257/92(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1343/2000(4), establishes the forecast supply balance for certain vegetable oils for Madeira for the 2000/01 marketing year.
(2) For the 2000/01 marketing year the forecast balance for the supply to Madeira of vegetable oils (other than olive oil) is assessed at 1500 tonnes. The information supplied by the Portuguese authorities indicates that this quantity will be insufficient to cover the requirements of Madeira's processing industry. It should therefore be increased to 1900 tonnes. The Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 2257/92 should therefore be amended.
(3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Oils and Fats,

It shall apply from 1 July 2000.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
