Regulation (EEC) No . . ./. ., and in particular Article 8 
(2) thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Whereas Article 8 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75

assessment of the development of the market in the 
various cereals in relation to the intervention price 
applicable, with a view to avoiding disturbances; 
whereas, therefore, the particular measures adopted may 
relate only to those cereals with physical and technical 
characteristics complying at least with the minimum 
requirements fixed for buying-in by the intervention 
agencies under Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 
2727/75; whereas the particular measures must, in 
respect of implementation, be adapted to the various 
situations arising; 
Whereas the sale of cereals held by intervention agencies 
as a result of particular intervention measures must avoid 
discrimination between Community buyers and the prices 
must not be such as to cause market disturbances; 
whereas the tendering procedure enables the above 
objectives to be attained; whereas, however, if this 
procedure is not followed or if cereals which have been 
the subject of particular intervention measures are not 
held by the intervention agencies, the adoption, where 
the market situation so requires, of special conditions for 
putting the cereals back on the market or for disposing 
of them by other means should be authorized; 
Whereas the provisions of this Regulation replace those 
of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1146/76 of 17 May 
1976 on particular and special intervention measures for 
cereals (x); whereas the abovementioned Regulation 
should, therefore, be repealed, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
Article 1

Article 2 
The particular intervention measures may take the form 
of buying-in of cereals having at least the qualitative and 
technical characteristics required for intervention.

the market; 
(b) or with a view to exporting them at prices to be 
determined case-by-case according to market 
developments and requirements. 
2. If particular intervention measures take a form 
other than that referred to in paragraph 1, special 
conditions may be laid down for putting the cereals back
