COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1764/2000

of 10 August 2000

fixing the export refunds on cereal-based compound feedingstuffs

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 in
cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1666/
2000 (2), and in particular Article 13(3) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

(2)

(3)

Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 provides
that the difference between quotations or prices on the
world market for the products listed in Article 1 of that
Regulation and prices for those products within the
Community may be covered by an export refund.

Regulation (EC) No 1517/95 of 29 June 1995 laying
down detailed rules for the application of Regulation
(EEC) No 1766/92 as regards the arrangements for the
export and import of compound feedingstuffs based on
cereals and amending Regulation (EC) No 1162/95
laying down special detailed rules for the application of
the system of import and export licences for cereals and
rice (3) in Article 2 lays down general rules for fixing the
amount of such refunds.

That calculation must also take account of the cereal
products content. In the interest of simplification, the
refund should be paid in respect of two categories of
‘cereal products’, namely for maize, the most commonly
in exported compound feeds and maize
used cereal
products, and for ‘other cereals’, these being eligible
cereal products excluding maize and maize products. A

(7)

refund should be granted in respect of the quantity of
cereal products present in the compound feedingstuff.

Furthermore, the amount of the refund must also take
into account the possibilities and conditions for the sale
of those products on the world market, the need to
avoid disturbances on the Community market and the
economic aspect of the export.

However,
in fixing the rate of refund it would seem
advisable to base it at this time on the difference in the
cost of raw inputs widely used in compound feeding-
stuffs as the Community and world markets, allowing
more accurate account to be taken of the commercial
conditions under which such products are exported.

The refund must be fixed once a month; whereas it may
be altered in the intervening period.

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

The export refunds on the compound feedingstuffs covered by
Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 and subject to Regulation (EC)
No 1517/95 are hereby fixed as shown in the Annex to this
Regulation.

This Regulation shall enter into force on 11 August 2000.

Article 2

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 10 August 2000.
