COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1600/2000
of 20 July 2000
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 the market incereals (
1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1253/
1999 (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 the market inrice (
3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2072/98 (4), and
in particular Article 13(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 and Article
13 of Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 provide that thedifference between quotations or prices on the worldmarket for the products listed in Article 1 of thoseRegulations and prices for those products within theCommunity may be covered by an export refund.
(2) Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 provides thatwhen refunds are being fixed account must be taken ofthe existing situation and the future trend with regard toprices and availabilities of cereals, rice and broken riceon the Community market on the one hand and pricesfor cereals, rice, broken rice and cereal products on theworld market on the other. The same Articles providethat it is also important to ensure equilibrium and thenatural development of prices and trade on the marketsin cereals and rice and, furthermore, to take into accountthe economic aspect of the proposed exports, and theneed to avoid disturbances on the Community market.
(3) 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 processedfrom cereals and from rice defines the specific criteria tobe taken into account when the refund on these prod-ucts is being calculated.(4) The refund to be granted in respect of certain processedproducts should be graduated on the basis of the ash,crude fibre, tegument, protein, fat and starch content ofthe individual product concerned, this content being aparticularly good indicator of the quantity of basicproduct actually incorporated in the processed product.
(5) There is no need at present to fix an export refund formanioc, other tropical roots and tubers or floursobtained therefrom, given the economic aspect of poten-tial exports and in particular the nature and origin ofthese products. For certain products processed fromcereals, the insignificance of Community participation inworld trade makes it unnecessary to fix an export refundat the present time.
(6) The world market situation or the specific requirementsof certain markets may make it necessary to vary therefund for certain products according to destination.
(7) The refund must be fixed once a month; whereas it maybe altered in the intervening period.
(8) Certain processed maize products may undergo a heattreatment 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.
(9) The measures provided for in this Regulation are inaccordance with the opinion of the ManagementCommittee for Cereals,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
