COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1708/2002

of 26 September 2002

fixing the export refunds on cereals and on wheat or rye flour, groats and meal

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 Regulation (EC) No 1666/
2000 (2), and in particular Article 13(2) 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 Regula-
tion and prices for those products in the Community
may be covered by an export refund.

The refunds must be fixed taking into account the factors
referred to in Article 1 of Commission Regulation (EC)
No 1501/95 of 29 June 1995 laying down certain
detailed rules under Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/
92 on the granting of export refunds on cereals and the
measures to be taken in the event of disturbance on the
market for cereals (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC)
No 1163/2002 (4), as amended by Regulation (EC) No
1324/2002 (5).

As far as wheat and rye flour, groats and meal are
concerned, when the refund on these products is being
calculated, account must be taken of the quantities of
cereals required for their manufacture. These quantities
were fixed in Regulation (EC) No 1501/95.

(4)

(5)

(6)

(7)

The world market situation or the specific requirements
of certain markets may make it necessary to vary the
refund for certain products according to destination.

The refund must be fixed once a month. It may be
altered in the intervening period.

It follows from applying the detailed rules set out above
to the present situation on the market in cereals, and in
particular to quotations or prices for these products
within the Community and on the world market, that
the refunds should be as set out in the Annex hereto.

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 products listed in Article 1(a), (b)
and (c) of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92, excluding malt,
exported in the natural state, shall be as set out in the Annex
hereto.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on 27 September 2002.

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

Done at Brussels, 26 September 2002.
