COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 1722/93
of 30 June 1993
laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regula-
tions(EEC)No1766/82and(EEC)No1418/76concerningproduc-
tion refunds in the cereals and rice sectors respectively
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European EconomicCommunity,
Having regard to Council Regulation (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 Council Regulation (EEC) No 1418/76of 21 June
1976on 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 special situation 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 whichthe import arrangements do not provide sufficient protection forCommunity producers, Regulations (EEC) No 1766/92 and (EEC) No1418/76provide 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 thecommon 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 adoptdetailed 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 ofamendment on the basis of fixed criteria;
Whereas, to ensure that control measures are effective, provision should
be made for beneficiaries of the refund to be approved in advance bythe Member 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 theintervention price for cereals and the price used to calculate the importlevy; whereas, for reasons of stability, the production refund should as ageneral rule 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; whereasdetailed information is required to facilitate the appropriate control andpayment 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 certainproducts derived from starch the use of which will give the manufac-turer 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 be speci-fied;
Whereas the special characteristics 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 or etheri-fied starch is not reprocessed into a raw material the use of which givesthe 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, itshould be possible for the manufacturer to receive an advance beforecompletion of the controls;
Whereas the agricultural conversion rate for the refund applicable in
national currency should be specified, without prejudice to the poss-ibility of advance fixing in accordance with Articles 13 to 17 ofCommission 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 the obliga-tions incumbent on manufacturers and guaranteed by the lodging of asecurity should be defined;
Whereas this Regulation incoporates, whilst adapting them, the provi-
sions 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:
Article 1
1. A production refund (hereinafter called ‘refund') may be granted
to natural or legal persons using starch extracted from wheat, maize,rice, broken rice or potatoes, or certain derived products, in the manu-facture of the goods listed in Annex I.

account of the level of competition with third countries, and the degreeof protection against such competition afforded by the mechanisms ofthe common agricultural policy, the Commission Customs Tariff orotherwise.
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,

where necessary, be corrected by the accession compensatory amountgapplicable for the type of starch in question.

(1) The coefficient shown applies to starch with a dry matter content at a least 87 % in the case of maize, rice and
wheat starches, and at least 80 % in the case of potato starch.
The production refund payable for basic starch of a lower dry matter content than that shown is to be adjusted
using the following formula:
1. Maize, rice of wheat starch:
Actual % dry matter
87× Production refund
▼C1
2. Potato starch:
Actual % dry matter
80× Production refund
▼B
The dry matter content of starch is determined by the method laid down in Annex II to Commission Regulation
(EEC) No 1908/84 (OJ No L 178, 5. 7.1984, p. 22). Where the production refund is paid for starch falling withCN code 1108, the purity of starch in the dry matter must be at least 97 %.
When determining the degree of purity of starch, the method to be used in that set out in Annex III to this
Regulation.

2) The production refund is payable for products falling within CN codes with a dry matter content of at least 78 %.
The production refund payable for products falling within these CN codes with a dry matter content lower than 78% is to be adjusted using the following formula:
Actual % dry matter
78× Production refund
(3)►C1The production ◄refund is payable for D-glucitol (sorbitol) in aqueous solution with a dry matter content
of at least 70 %. Where the dry matter content is lower than 70 %, the production refund is to be adjusted usingthe following formula:
Actual % dry matter
70× Production refund
(4) Directly produced from maize, wheat, rice or potatoes, with the exclusion of all use of by-products obtained at the
time of the manufacture of other agricultural products or merchandise.
(5) The production refund is payable for the actual starch or dextrin dry matter content.

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 Commis-sion Directive 72/199/EEC (
1) setting out the Community methods of analysis
for the official control of animal feed.
