(88/C 139/25) 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European 
Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament, 
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social 
Committee, 
Whereas, to take account of the sharp increase in 
Community production, the requirements to be met by 
operators qualifying for the aid provided for in Article 2 of 
Council Regulation (EEC) No 1491/85 (*), as last amended 
by Regulation (EEC) No 4002/87 (2), should be made 
stricter, 
(!) OJ No L 151, 10. 6. 1985, p. 15. 
(2) OJ No L 377, 31. 12. 1987, p. 45. Article 1 
Article 2(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 1491/85 is hereby 
replaced by the following: 
'2. Aid shall be granted to any processor of soya beans 
who has concluded with individual or associated soya 
bean producers a contract providing for payment to the 
producer of a price at least equal to the minimum price 
referred to in paragraph 3. However, in Member States 
where the marketing of soya beans is subject to national 
laws ensuring adequate organization and controls, the 
aid may be granted to a first purchaser who is not the 
processor. 
Where the first purchaser is the processor of the beans, 
the aid shall be granted once proof of processing has 
been provided. 
In other cases, the aid shall be granted to first 
purchasers: 
— meeting certain conditions to be determined, 
— approved by the Member State,

Article 2 
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European 
Economic Community, 
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1491/85 of 
23 May 1985 laying down special measures for soya 
beans (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No ..., and 
in particular Article 2(6) thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Whereas Community production of soya beans has risen 
sharply in recent years; whereas the system for verifying 
entitlement to the aid and the amount of the aid to be 
granted in the case of advance fixing should be adjusted to 
this new situation; 
Whereas, so as to adjust the amount of the aid better to the 
market situation, in the case of advance fixing of the aid, 
that amount should be corrected depending on the changes 
in the guide price and the price trends on the world market; 
Whereas, where an abnormal situation threatens to cause 
disturbance of the market, the possibility of fixing the 
amount of the aid in advance should be suspended; 
whereas it must be possible to decide on that suspension 
and implement it urgently; 
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 2194/85 (2), as last 
amended by Regulation (EEC) No ..., must be adapted 
accordingly, 
(!) OJ No L 151, 10. 6. 1985, p. 15.

be laid down,

ing certain conditions,

2. Where a Member State has national laws governing

provide sufficient guarantees as regards the checking of 
entitlement to the aid, the Member State may grant the 
aid to first purchasers who are not processors, provided 
that they are approved beforehand, that they meet the 
conditions laid down for processors, and that they 
submit to the agency designated by the Member State in Proposal for a Council Regulation (EEC) amending Regulation (EEC) No 2194/85 adopting
