THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 of 16 March 1987 on the common organization of the market in wine (1), and in particular Article 27 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (3),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (4),
Whereas, when the guide prices for the various types of table wine are fixed, account should be taken of the objectives of the common agricultural policy; whereas the objectives of the common agricultural policy are, in particular, to ensure a fair standard of living for the agricultural community and to assure the availability of supplies and to ensure that supplies reach consumers at reasonable prices;
Whereas if these objectives are to be achieved, it is absolutely essential that the gap between production and demand should not be opened further; whereas to that end, the guide prices for the 1992/93 wine year should be set at the same levels as the previous year;
Whereas pursuant to Article 70 of the Act of Accession, the Spanish prices should be aligned on the common prices as from that marketing year;
Whereas the guide prices must be fixed for each type of table wine representative of Community production as defined in Annex III to Regulation (EEC) No 822/87,
