amending Regulation (EEC) No 1322/83 on the transfer of 550 000 tonnes of common wheat of bread-making quality by French and German intervention agencies
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1018/84 (2), and in particular Article 8 (3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1322/83 (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2153/84 (4), provided in particular for the transfer to Italy of 450 000 tonnes of common wheat of bread-making quality held by the French intervention agency for disposal by the Italian intervention agency in animal feedingstuffs before 1 August 1984; whereas, since the said quantity could not be disposed of in its entirety before the said date, the deadline for the disposal of the remaining quantity of 32 420 tonnes, held in storage in Sicily, was extended to 31 October 1984; whereas it was stipulated that as from 1 November 1984 quantities not disposed of would be put up for sale again in accordance with Regulation (EEC) No 1836/82 (5);
Whereas the new deadline has proved inadequate; whereas recourse to Regulation (EEC) No 1836/82 appears inappropriate; whereas therefore, for the sake of efficient management, provision should be made for the disposal of the remaining quantity of 21 680 tonnes before 1 August 1985; whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1322/83 should be amended accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The first subparagraph of Article 1 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 1322/83 is hereby amended as follows:
1. the second sentence is replaced by the following:
'They shall ensure that it is disposed of in animal feed before 1 August 1985.';

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

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 537/2007
of 15 May 2007
concerning the authorisation of the fermentation product of Aspergillus oryzae (NRRL 458) (Amaferm) as a feed additive
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 September 2003 on additives for use in animal nutrition (1), and in particular Article 9(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the authorisation of additives for use in animal nutrition and for the grounds and procedures for granting such authorisation.
(2)
In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application was submitted for the authorisation of the preparation set out in the Annex to this Regulation. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.
(3)
The application concerns authorisation of the fermentation product of Aspergillus oryzae NRRL 458 (Amaferm), as a feed additive for dairy cows, to be classified in the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’.
(4)
The European Food Safety Authority (the Authority) concluded in its opinion of 8 March 2006 that the fermentation product of Aspergillus oryzae NRRL 458 (Amaferm) does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment (2). It further concluded that that fermentation product does not present any other risk which would, in accordance with Article 5(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, exclude authorisation. Amaferm has shown to produce positive effects on milk yield of dairy cows. The opinion of the Authority recommends appropriate measures for user safety. It does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post market monitoring. This opinion also verifies the report on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Community Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.
(5)
The assessment of that preparation shows that the conditions for authorisation, provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of that preparation should be authorised, as specified in the Annex to this Regulation.
(6)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’ and to the functional group ‘digestibility enhancers’, is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following 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.

In that case a contract is awarded to any tenderer whose bid is equal to or lower than the maximum refund.
(3)
The application of the abovementioned criteria to the current market situation for the cereal in question results in the maximum export refund being fixed.
