THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (1), and in particular Article 31(14) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | As from 17 June 2005, Commission Regulation (EC) No 909/2005 of 16 June 2005 fixing the export refunds for milk and milk products (2) no longer provides for export refunds on supplies as referred to in Articles 36 and 44 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 800/1999 of 15 April 1999 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of export refunds on agricultural products (3). |

| (2) | In accordance with Article 37 of Regulation (EC) No 800/1999, Member States may authorise exporters to follow a procedure whereby the last day of the month is used to determine the rate of refund applicable to supplies as referred to in Articles 36 and 44 of that Regulation loaded each month.
