(88/500/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3730/87 of 10 December 1987 laying down the general rules for the supply of food from intervention stocks to designated organizations for distribution to the most deprived persons in the Community (1),

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3744/87 of 14 December 1987 laying down the detailed rules for the supply of food from intervention stocks to designated organizations for distribution to the most deprived persons in the Community (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 952/88 (3), and in particular Articles 4 and 10 thereof,

Whereas in order to implement the scheme for the supply of such food to the most deprived section of the population, to be financed from resources available in the 1988 budget year, the Commission took a number of decisions allocating resources to the Member States; whereas the resources so allocated fall short of the total available under the 1988 budget; whereas for some Member States the allocation exceeds the amount the relevant authorities now consider to be necessary but in certain other Member States the allocation falls short of needs;

Whereas in order to optimize the impact of the scheme the Commission considers it necessary to revise some of the decisions taken for the allocation of resources to be charged to the 1988 budget;

Whereas in accordance with the provisions of Article 1 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 3744/87 the Commission has sought the advice of major organizations familiar with the problems of the most deprived persons in the Community when drawing up this Decision,
