Whereas, because of the non-commercial nature of the Community and national food aid measures provided for under international agreements or other supplementary programmes, as well as other Community free supply measures, exports made for this purpose are excluded from the field of application of the export tax applicable to commercial exports in cases of disturbance on the cereals market; whereas an appropriate provision should therefore be introduced into Regulation (EC) No 1501/95;
