The intervention agency, the storer and a successful tenderer shall, at the request of the latter and by common agreement, either before or at the time of removal from storage as the tenderer chooses, take reference samples for counter-analysis at the rate of at least one sample for every 500 tonnes and shall analyse the samples. The intervention agency may be represented by a proxy, provided this is not the storer.

Reference samples for counter-analysis shall be taken and analysed within seven working days of the date of the successful tenderer’s request or within three working days if the samples are taken on removal from storage.

In the event of a dispute, the analysis results shall be forwarded electronically to the Commission.

—

half a percentage point as regards the impurities referred to in point B.5 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 824/2000, the percentages admissible for noxious grains and ergot remaining unchanged, however.

2.   If the final result of the analyses carried out on the samples indicates a quality higher than the minimum characteristics laid down for intervention but below the quality described in the notice of invitation to tender and the difference exceeds the limits set out in paragraph 1(b), the successful tenderer may:

In the case of (b) above, the successful tenderer shall be discharged of all obligations relating to the lot in question and the security shall be released provided the Commission and the intervention agency are immediately notified using the form in Annex II.

3.   Where the final result of sample analyses indicates a quality below the minimum characteristics laid down for intervention, the successful tenderer may not remove the lot in question. The successful tenderer shall be discharged of all obligations relating to the lot in question and the security shall be released provided the Commission and the intervention agency are immediately notified using the form in Annex II.

Article 8

Should the cases mentioned in point (b) of the first subparagraph of Article 7(2) and in Article 7(3) arise, the successful tenderer may ask the intervention agency to supply an alternative lot of barley of the requisite quality, at no extra cost. In that case, the security shall not be released. The lot must be replaced within three days of the date of the successful tenderer’s request. The successful tenderer shall immediately inform the Commission thereof using the form in Annex II.

If, following successive replacements, the successful tenderer has not received a replacement lot of the quality laid down within one month of the date of the first request for a replacement, the successful tenderer shall be discharged of all obligations and the security shall be released, provided the Commission and the intervention agency have been immediately informed using the form in Annex II.

Article 9

1.   If the barley is removed before the results of the analyses provided for in Article 6 are known, all risks shall be borne by the successful tenderer from the time the lot is removed, without prejudice to any means of redress the tenderer might have against the storer.

2.   The costs of taking the samples and conducting the analyses provided for in Article 6, with the exception of those referred to in Article 7(3), shall be borne by the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF) for up to one analysis per 500 tonnes, with the exception of the cost of inter-bin transfers. The costs of inter-bin transfers and any additional analyses requested by a successful tenderer shall be borne by that tenderer.

Article 10

Notwithstanding Article 12 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3002/92, the documents relating to the sale of barley under this Regulation, and in particular the export licence, the removal order referred to in Article 3(1)(b) of Regulation (EEC) No 3002/92, the export declaration and, where applicable, the T5 copy shall carry one of the entries set out in Annex III.

Article 11

1.   The security lodged under Article 13(4) of Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93 shall be released once the export licences have been issued to the successful tenderers.

2.   Notwithstanding Article 17(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93, the obligation to export shall be covered by a security equal to the difference between the intervention price applying on the day of the award and the price awarded, but not less than EUR 25 per tonne. Half of the security shall be lodged when the licence is issued and the balance shall be lodged before the cereals are removed.

Article 12

The Czech intervention agency shall communicate to the Commission tenders submitted within two hours of the expiry of the deadline for the submission of tenders laid down in Article 5(1). If no tenders are submitted, the Czech Republic shall communicate this to the Commission within the same time-limits. If the Czech Republic does not send a communication to the Commission within the given deadline, the Commission shall consider that no tender has been submitted in the Member State concerned.

The communications referred to in the first subparagraph shall be sent electronically, in accordance with the model in Annex IV. The tenderers shall not be identified.

Article 13

1.   In accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 25(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 the Commission shall fix the minimum selling price, or decide to take no action in respect of the tenders received, in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93.

2.   If the fixing of a minimum price, in accordance with paragraph 1, would lead to an overrun on the maximum quantity available to a Member State, an award coefficient may be fixed at the same time for the quantities offered at the minimum price in order to comply with the maximum quantity available to that Member State.

Article 14

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
