COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 308/92 of 7 February 1992 amending Regulation (EEC) No 3680/91 on the sale for delivery in Madeira and the Azores of cereals held by different intervention agencies, and amending Regulation (EEC) No 3681/91 fixing the minimum selling prices for the purposes of the standing invitation to tender issued by Regulation (EEC) No 3680/91

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3577/90 (2), and in particular Article 7 (6) thereof,

Whereas Article 2 (2) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3680/91 of 17 December 1991 on the sale for delivery in the Azores and Madeira of cereals held by the intervention agencies (3), explicity states that each of the islands in the archipelago in which there are either milling facilities or feedingstuffs factories should by supplied; whereas the experience acquired shows that supply of feedwheat to these islands should equally be foreseen; whereas this supply is foreseen by a tender to sale cereals held by different intrvention agencies;

Whereas the minimum selling prices for the purposes of the standing invitation to tender issued by Regulation (EEC) No 3680/91 have been fixed in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3681/91 (4), without distinguishing between the different intervention agencies; whereas the 'Accession' compensatory amounts for common wheat were fixed, for the 1991/92 marketing year, by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1826/91 (5); whereas these accession compensatory amounts should be taken into account at the fixing of the minimum selling prices for the Portuguese intervention agency in order to avoid any discrimination between the different intervention agencies concerned; whereas different selling prices should, therefore, be fixed for the Portuguese intervention agency and, consequently, the Annex of Regulation (EEC) No 3681/91 should also be amended taking effect as from 1 February 1992;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in acordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
