Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1420/87 of 21 May 1987 laying down implementing rules for Regulation (EEC) No 3972/86 on food-aid policy and food-aid management (3) lays down the list of countries and organizations eligible for food-aid operations and specifies the general criteria on the transport of food aid beyond the fob stage;

Whereas, following the taking of a number of decisions on the allocation of food aid, the Commission has allocated to certain countries and beneficiary organizations 372 tonnes of white sugar;

Whereas it is necessary to make these supplies in accordance with the rules laid down by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2200/87 of 8 July 1987 laying down general rules for the mobilization in the Community of products to be supplied as Community food aid (4); whereas it is necessary to specify the time limits and conditions of supply and the procedure to be followed to determine the resultant costs;

Whereas given the situation on the sugar market and the special nature of the sector, the supplies should be taken from C-sugar produced outside the production quotas, as defined in Council Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 of 30 June 1981 on the common organization of the market in the sugar sector (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2306/88 (6); whereas under that Regulation refunds and monetary compensatory amounts may not be granted on export levies and monetary compensatory amounts may not be charged on exports of C-sugar,
