The refund applicable in the case of malts must be calculated with amount taken of the quantity of cereals required to manufacture the products in question. The said quantities are laid down in Regulation (EC) No 1501/95.

The world market situation or the specific requirements of certain markets may make it necessary to vary the refund for certain products according to destination.
(5)

(6)
It follows from applying these rules to the present situation on markets in cereals, and in particular to quotations or prices for these products within the Community and on the world market, that the refunds should be as set out in the Annex hereto.

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,

COMMISSION DECISION of 22 April 1994 on the regionalization plan submitted by Portugal under Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 (Only the Portuguese text is authentic) (94/286/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 of 30 June 1992 establishing a support system for producers of certain arable crops (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 232/94 (2), and in particular Article 16 thereof,
Whereas, on 30 September 1992, Portugal submitted a regionalization plan to the Commission in accordance with Article 3 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92; whereas, pursuant to Commission Decision 93/121/EEC of 23 December 1992 on the regionalization plan submitted by Portugal under Council Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92 (3), Portugal revised the plan; whereas a new plan was submitted to the Commission on 21 March 1994;
Whereas an examination of the revised plan shows that Portugal has retained the criteria previously used for regions in the southern part of the country resulting in the allocation, in accordance with a pre-established national classification of soils, of a specific yield to each holding on the basis of the areas it comprises and for which a compensatory payment has been applied for; whereas as a consequence the plan does not result in the establishment of distinctive homogenous production zones in the regions in question; whereas it does not, therefore, meet the criteria laid down in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92;
Whereas, however, in view of the work completed for the 1994 harvest, its applications for the 1994/95 marketing year should be permitted;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Joint Management Committee for Cereals, Oils and Fats and Dried Fodder,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
1. For the 1994/95 marketing year, Portugal may apply, in regions in the southern part of the country and by way of a transitional measure, the regionalization plan notified to the Commission on 21 March 1994 based on the same criteria for the classification of land as used for the establishment of the regionalization plan for the 1993/94 marketing year.
2. For the 1995/96 marketing year, the Portuguese Republic shall submit before 31 July 1994 a plan revising the methods referred to in paragraph 1 in accordance with Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 1765/92.
Article 2
The Community shall not be liable financially should expenditure exceed that arising from the application of this Decision.
Article 3
This Decision is addressed to the Portuguese Republic.

of 12 December 2006
adjusting the weightings applicable from 1 February, 1 March, 1 April, 1 May and 1 June 2006 to the remuneration of officials, temporary staff and contract staff of the European Communities serving in third countries
(2006/922/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to the Staff Regulations of officials of the European Communities and the conditions of employment of other servants of the Communities laid down by Regulation (EEC, Euratom, ECSC) No 259/68 (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2104/2005 (2), and in particular the second paragraph of Article 13 of Annex X thereto,
Whereas:
(1)
Pursuant to the first paragraph of Article 13 of Annex X to the Staff Regulations, the weightings to be applied from 1 July 2005 to the remuneration of officials, temporary staff and contract staff of the European Communities serving in third countries payable in the currency of their country of employment were laid down by Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 351/2006 (3).
(2)
Some of these weightings need to be adjusted in accordance with the second paragraph of Article 13 of Annex X to the Staff Regulations, with effect from 1 February, 1 March, 1 April, 1 May and 1 June 2006, since the statistics available to the Commission show that in certain third countries the variation in the cost of living measured on the basis of the weighting and the corresponding exchange rate has exceeded 5 % since weightings were last laid down or adjusted,

Commission Regulation (EC) No 1509/2002
of 22 August 2002
fixing the export refunds on cereal-based compound feedingstuffs
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 of 30 June 1992 on the common organization of the market in cereals(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1666/2000(2), and in particular Article 13(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 provides that the difference between quotations or prices on the world market for the products listed in Article 1 of that Regulation and prices for those products within the Community may be covered by an export refund.
(2) Regulation (EC) No 1517/95 of 29 June 1995 laying down detailed rules for the application of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 as regards the arrangements for the export and import of compound feedingstuffs based on cereals and amending Regulation (EC) No 1162/95 laying down special detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences for cereals and rice(3) in Article 2 lays down general rules for fixing the amount of such refunds.
(3) That calculation must also take account of the cereal products content. In the interest of simplification, the refund should be paid in respect of two categories of "cereal products", namely for maize, the most commonly used cereal in exported compound feeds and maize products, and for "other cereals", these being eligible cereal products excluding maize and maize products. A refund should be granted in respect of the quantity of cereal products present in the compound feedingstuff.
(4) Furthermore, the amount of the refund must also take into account the possibilities and conditions for the sale of those products on the world market, the need to avoid disturbances on the Community market and the economic aspect of the export.
(5) However, in fixing the rate of refund it would seem advisable to base it at this time on the difference in the cost of raw inputs widely used in compound feedingstuffs as the Community and world markets, allowing more accurate account to be taken of the commercial conditions under which such products are exported.
(6) The refund must be fixed once a month; whereas it may be altered in the intervening period.
(7) The Management Committee for Cereals has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The export refunds on the compound feedingstuffs covered by Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 and subject to Regulation (EC) No 1517/95 are hereby fixed as shown in the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on 23 August 2002.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
