# COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 6/2005

of 4 January 2005

correcting Regulations (EC) No 46/2003 and (EC) No 47/2003 as regards mixes of different types of fresh fruit and vegetables in the same sales package

## Preamble

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 of 28 October 1996 on the common organisation of the market in fruit and vegetables [^1] , and in particular Article 2(2) thereof,

Whereas:

**(1)** Commission Regulation (EC) No 48/2003 of 10 January 2003 laying down the rules applicable to mixes of different types of fresh fruit and vegetables in the same sales package [^2] applies to sales packages of a net weight of three kilograms or less.

**(2)** There is a mistake in Commission Regulation (EC) No 46/2003 of 10 January 2003 amending the marketing standards for fresh fruit and vegetables as regards mixes of different types of fresh fruit and vegetables in the same sales package [^3] and in Commission Regulation (EC) No 47/2003 of 10 January 2003 amending Annex I to Council Regulation (EC) No 2200/96, which provide that different types of products covered by the marketing standards for fresh fruit and vegetables may be combined in sales packages of a net weight of less than three kilograms.

**(3)** Regulations (EC) No 46/2003 and (EC) No 47/2003 must therefore be corrected to allow sales packages covered by this provision to be of a net weight of three kilograms or less.

**(4)** The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fresh Fruit and Vegetables,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
