COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1740/98

of 5 August 1998

amending Regulation (EC) No 1323/98 increasing to 349 875 tonnes the quantity
of common wheat of breadmaking quality held by the German intervention
agency for which a standing invitation to tender for export has been opened

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 organisation of the
market in cereals (1), as last amended by Commission
Regulation (EC) No 923/96 (2), and in particular Article 5
thereof,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93 (3),
as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2193/96 (4), lays
down the procedures and conditions for the disposal of
cereals held by the intervention agencies;

Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1323/98 (5),
opened a standing invitation to tender for the export of
249 996 tonnes of common wheat of breadmaking quality
held by the German intervention agency; whereas,
Germany informed the Commission of the intention of
its intervention agency to increase by 99 879 tonnes the
quantity for which a standing invitation to tender for
export has been opened; whereas the total quantity of
common wheat of breadmaking quality held by the
German intervention agency for which a standing invita-
tion to tender for export has been opened should be
increased to 349 875 tonnes;

Whereas this increase in the quantity put out to tender
makes it necessary to alter the list of regions and quant-

ities in store; whereas Annex I to Regulation (EC) No
1323/98 must therefore be amended;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are
in accordance with the opinion of
the Management
Committee for Cereals,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Regulation (EC) No 1323/98 is hereby amended as
follows:

Communities.
