COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 567/98
of 12 March 1998
fixing the export refunds on products processed from cereals and rice
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 themarket in cereals (
1), as last amended by Commission
Regulation (EC) No 923/96 (2), and in particular Article
13 (3) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 of
22 December 1995 on the common organization of themarket in rice (
3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No
192/98 (4), and in particular Article 13 (3) thereof,
Whereas Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 and
Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 provide thatthe difference between quotations or prices on the worldmarket for the products listed in Article 1 of those Regu-lations and prices for those products within theCommunity may be covered by an export refund;
Whereas Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 3072/95
provides that when refunds are being fixed account mustbe taken of the existing situation and the future trendwith regard to prices and availabilities of cereals, rice andbroken rice on the Community market on the one handand prices for cereals, rice, broken rice and cereal prod-ucts on the world market on the other; whereas the sameArticles provide that it is also important to ensure equilib-rium and the natural development of prices and trade onthe markets in cereals and rice and, furthermore, to takeinto account the economic aspect of the proposedexports, and the need to avoid disturbances on theCommunity market;
Whereas Article 4 of Commission Regulation (EC) No
1518/95 (
5), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 2993/
95 (6), on the import and export system for products
processed from cereals and from rice defines the specificcriteria to be taken into account when the refund on theseproducts is being calculated;Whereas the refund to be granted in respect of certain
processed products should be graduated on the basis ofthe ash, crude fibre, tegument, protein, fat and starchcontent of the individual product concerned, this contentbeing a particularly good indicator of the quantity of basicproduct actually incorporated in the processed product;
Whereas there is no need at present to fix an export
refund for manioc, other tropical roots and tubers orflours obtained therefrom, given the economic aspect ofpotential exports and in particular the nature and originof these products; whereas, for certain products processedfrom cereals, the insignificance of Community participa-tion in world trade makes it unnecessary to fix an exportrefund at the present time;
Whereas the world market situation or the specific
requirements of certain markets may make it necessary tovary the refund for certain products according to destina-tion;
Whereas the refund must be fixed once a month; whereas
it may be altered in the intervening period;
Whereas certain processed maize products may undergo a
heat treatment following which a refund might be grantedthat does not correspond to the quality of the product;whereas it should therefore be specified that on theseproducts, containing pregelatinized starch, no exportrefund is to be granted;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are
in accordance with the opinion of the ManagementCommittee for Cereals,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The export refunds on the products listed in Article 1 (1)
(d) of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 and in Article 1 (1)(c) of Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 and subject to Regula-tion (EC) No 1518/95 are hereby fixed as shown in theAnnex to this Regulation.(1) OJ L 181, 1. 7. 1992, p. 21.
