No L 167/2 27. 6. 85 Official Journal of the European Communities COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1738/85 of 24 June 1985 revising the maximum amount for the production levy on B sugar and the minimum price for B beet for the 1985/86 marketing year THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 of 30 June 1981 on the common organization of the markets in the sugar sector (*), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1482/85 (), and in particular Articles 5 (5) and 28 (5) thereof, Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, Whereas Article 28 (3) and (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 provides that the losses resulting from the obligation to export surpluses of Community sugar are to be covered by production levies on the production of A and B sugar and of A and B isoglucose, within certain limits ; Whereas, when the total sum of the levies provided for does not fully cover the overall loss arising from these obligations, paragraph 5 of that Article requires that an adjustment be made in the maximum amount fixed for the B levy for the marketing year immediately following the marketing year in which the balance of uncovered losses was recorded ; Whereas the sum of the levies to be raised for the 1984/85 marketing year is less than the sum resulting from the multiplication of the exportable surplus by the average loss; whereas it is therefore necessary, according to the information available, to increase, for the 1985/86 marketing year, the maximum amount of the B levy to 37,5 % of the intervention price for white sugar and also to adjust accordingly the minimum price for B beet fixed for that marketing year by Regulation (EEC) No 1484/85 (%), HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION : Article 1 1.  For the 1985/1986 marketing year, the maximum amount referred to in the first indent of the second subparagraph of Article 28 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 shall be increased to 37,5 % of the interven- tion price for white sugar. 2. For the 1985/86 marketing year, the minimum price for B beet referred to in the second subparagraph of Article 5 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 shall be equal to 60,5 % of the basic price for beet.
