THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European EconomicCommunity,
Having regard to CouncilRegul ation (EEC) No 1766/92 of 30 June
1992 on the common organization of the market in cereals (
1), and in
particular Article 7 thereof,
Having regard to CouncilRegul ation (EEC) No 1418/76 of 21 June
1976 on the common organization of the market in rice (2), as last
amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1544/93 (3), and in particular Article
9 thereof,
Whereas, in view of the specialsituation of the market in starch, and
particularly the need to keep prices competitive in relation to starchproduced in third countries and imported as goods in respect of which
the import arrangements do not provide sufficient protection for
Community producers, Regulations (EEC) No 1766/92 and (EEC) No1418/76 provide for the grant of a production refund to enable the userindustries concerned to have access to starch and certain derivatives at alower price than that which would result from applying the rules of the
common organization of the market in the products in question;
Whereas, pursuant to Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 and
Article 9 of Regulation (EEC) No 1418/76, it is necessary to adopt
detailed rules for the grant of production refunds, including rules forcontrol and payment, so that he same rules are applied in all MemberStates;
Whereas the abovementioned Regulations provide for a list to be drawn
up of of products the manufacture of which uses starch giving rise toentitlement to the refund; whereas such a list must be capable of
amendment on the basis of fixed criteria;
Whereas, to ensure that controlmeasures are effective, provision shoul d
be made for beneficiaries of the refund to be approved in advance by theMember States in whose territory the abovementioned products aremanufactured;
Whereas it is necessary to define how the production refund is to be
calculated how often it is to be fixed; whereas the most satisfactorycalculation method is at present based on the difference between the
intervention price for cereals and the price used to calculate the import
levy; whereas, for reasons of stability, the production refund should as ageneralrul e be fixed every month; whereas, as a means of checking thatthe production refund is of the correct value, the prices of maize andwheat should be monitored on the world and Community markets;
Whereas production refunds are to be paid for the use of starch and
certain derived products in the manufacture of certain goods; whereas
detailed information is required to facilitate the appropriate control and
payment of the production refunds to applicants; whereas the competentauthority in the Member State concerned should be empowered torequire applicants to supply any information and allow any checks orinspections necessary to effect such controls;
Whereas the manufacturer of the product may not necessarily use basic
starch; whereas it is therefore necessary to draw up a list of certain1993R1722 — EN — 22.01.1999 — 005.001 — 2

products derived from starch the use of which will give the manufacturer
the right to receive the refund;
Whereas the origin of the raw materials of the starch used in the
manufacture of products eligible for production refunds must bespecified;
Whereas the specialcharacteristics of esterified or etherified starch
could lead to certain speculative processing operations designed toreceive the production refund more than once; whereas, so as to preventsuch speculation, measures are needed to ensure that esterified oretherified starch is not reprocessed into a raw materialthe use of whichgives the right to apply for a refund;
Whereas the production refund should not be paid until processing has
taken place; whereas, once processing has taken place, payment shouldbe made within five months following verification by the competentauthority that the starch has been processed; whereas, however, it should
be possible for the manufacturer to receive an advance before
completion of the controls;
Whereas the agricultural conversion rate for the refund applicable in
nationalcurrency shoul d be specified, without prejudice to the
possibility of advance fixing in accordance with Articles 13 to 17 of
Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1068/93 (
1);
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2220/85 of 22 July 1985
laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system ofsecurities for agricultural products (
2), as last amended by Regulation
(EEC) No 3745/89 (3), applies to the arrangements provided for in this
Regulation; whereas, therefore, the primary requirements of theobligations incumbent on manufacturers and guaranteed by the lodgingof a security should be defined;
Whereas this Regulation incoporates, whilst adapting them, the
provisions of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2169/86 (
4), as last
amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1398/91 (5), whereas that Regulation
should therefore be repealed;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance
with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

3. At the time of the decision to grant a refund, other factors shall be
taken into account, in particular:
— the progress made in the technology of starch manufacture and
utilization,
— the degree to which starch is incorporated in the finalproduct and/or
the relative value of starch in the final product and/or the importance
of the product as an outlet for starch, in the light of competition withother products.
4. The grant of a refund for a product may not cause distortion in the
conditions of competition with other products which are not eligible for
such refunds.
5. Should it be established that distortion has occurred following the
grant of a refund, that refund shall:
— be abolished, or
— adjusted, in so far as is necessary to eliminate the distortion in the
conditions of competition.
6. Starches imported into the Community under an import scheme
which gives rise to a reduction in import duty may not benefit from aproduction refund.
7. The decisions provided for in this Article shall be adopted by the

Article 3
1. In cases where a refund is granted, it shall be fixed once a month.

2. The refund per tonne of starch of maize, wheat, barley, oats,
potatoes, rice or broken rice is calculated in particular on the basis of thedifference between:
(i) the maize market price in the Community, valid during the five days
preceeding the day of fixing, taking into account the price levelsnoted for the wheat; and
(ii) the average of the representative cif import Rotterdam prices used
for the determination of the import duties of the maize, noted during
the five days preceding the day of the beginning of application,
multiplied by a coefficient of 1,60.3. The refund payable shall be that calculated in accordance with
paragraph 2 and multiplied by the coefficient indicated to Annex II
which corresponds to the CN code of the starch actually used for the
manufacture of the approved products.
4. The decisions provided for in this article shall be adopted by the
Commission in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 23 ofRegulation (EEC) No 1766/92.1993R1722 — EN — 22.01.1999 — 005.001 — 4

(1) The coefficient shown applies to starch with a dry matter content of at least 87 % in the case of maize, rice, wheat,
barley and oats starches, and of at least 80 % in the case of potato starch.
The production refund payable on basic starch of a lower dry matter content than that shown is to be adjusted
using the following formula:
1. Maize, rice, wheat, barley and oat starch:
Actualpercentage of dry matter
87/C2Production refund
2. Potato starch:
Actualpercentage of dry matter
80/C2Production refund
The dry matter content of starch is determined by the method laid down in Annex II to Commission Regulation
(EEC) No 1908/84 (OJ L 178, 5. 7. 1984, p. 22). Where the production refund is paid on starch covered by CNcode 1108, the starch content in the dry matter must be at least 97 %. The method set out in Annex III to thisRegulation is to be used to determine the degree of purity of starch.
(
2) The production refund is payable on products covered by CN codes with a dry matter content of at least 78 %. The
production refund payable on products covered by these CN codes with a dry matter content of less than 78 % is tobe adjusted using the following formula:

78/C2Production refund
(3) The production refund is payable on D-glucitol (sorbitol) in aqueous solution with a dry matter content of at least

ANNEX III
The degree of purity of the starch in dry matter is determined with the aid of the
modified polarimetric Ewers method, published in Annex I to the third
Commission Directive 72/199/EEC (1) setting out the Community methods of
analysis for the official control of animal feed.1993R1722 — EN — 22.01.1999 — 005.001 — 15
