WHEREAS DETAILED RULES FOR GRANTING PRIVATE STORAGE AID FOR PIGMEAT MUST BE ADOPTED IN ADDITION TO THE GENERAL RULES LAID DOWN BY COUNCIL REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 2763/75 ( 5 );

WHEREAS , IF IT IS TO ACHIEVE ITS PURPOSE , SUCH AID SHOULD BE GRANTED ONLY TO NATURAL OR LEGAL PERSONS ESTABLISHED IN THE COMMUNITY WHOSE PAST ACTIVITIES AND EXPERIENCE IN THE SECTOR ARE SUCH AS TO GUARANTEE THAT STORAGE WILL BE EFFECTED IN A SATISFACTORY MANNER AND WHO HAVE ADEQUATE COLD STORAGE CAPACITY WITHIN THE COMMUNITY ; WHEREAS , FOR THE SAME REASON , AID SHOULD BE GRANTED ONLY FOR THE STORAGE OF PRODUCTS WHICH HAVE BEEN OBTAINED FROM RECENT SLAUGHTERINGS AND WHICH ARE STORED IN A FROZEN STATE OR AS PRESERVED OR OTHER PROCESSED PRODUCTS ;

WHEREAS , TO MAKE THE AID MORE EFFECTIVE , IT SHOULD BE STIPULATED THAT CONTRACTS MUST RELATE TO NOT LESS THAN A CERTAIN QUANTITY , VARIED IF NECESSARY ACCORDING TO PRODUCT ;

WHEREAS ARTICLE 4 ( 1 ) OF REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 2763/75 PROVIDES THAT THE AMOUNT OF AID FOR PRIVATE STORAGE MAY BE DETERMINED BY MEANS OF A TENDERING PROCEDURE ; WHEREAS ARTICLES 4 AND 5 OF THE SAME REGULATION CONTAIN RULES TO BE OBSERVED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS PROCEDURE ; WHEREAS , HOWEVER , MORE DETAILED RULES ARE NECESSARY FOR THAT PURPOSE ;

WHEREAS , TO ENSURE EQUAL TREATMENT FOR ALL INTERESTED PARTIES IN THE COMMUNITY , NOTICES OF INVITATION TO TENDER SHOULD BE PUBLISHED IN THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ;

WHEREAS CERTAIN RULES REGARDING THE SCRUTINY OF TENDERS AND THEIR TRANSMISSION TO THE COMMISSION BY THE MEMBER STATES SHOULD BE LAID DOWN ;

WHEREAS THE PURPOSE OF ADOPTING THE TENDERING PROCEDURE IS TO DETERMINE THE AMOUNT OF THE AID ; WHEREAS , IN THE SELECTION OF TENDERS , PREFERENCE SHOULD BE GIVEN TO THOSE WHICH ARE MOST ADVANTAGEOUS FOR THE COMMUNITY ; WHEREAS , TO THAT END , A MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF AID MAY BE SET FOR WHICH TENDERS WOULD BE ACCEPTED ; WHEREAS , IF NO TENDER IS ACCEPTABLE , NONE NEED BE ACCEPTED ;

WHEREAS , SO THAT THE COMMISSION MAY HAVE AN OVERALL VIEW OF THE EFFECT OF PRIVATE STORAGE AID , THE MEMBER STATES SHOULD SUPPLY IT WITH THE NECESSARY INFORMATION ;

WHEREAS THE PRESENT REGULATION INCORPORATES THE PROVISIONS OF COMMISSION REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 1889/76 OF 29 JULY 1976 LAYING DOWN DETAILED RULES FOR GRANTING PRIVATE STORAGE AID FOR PIGMEAT ( 1 ); WHEREAS THAT REGULATION SHOULD THEREFORE BE REPEALED ;
