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 5 thereof,

(4)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in
the Management

Whereas:

Article 1

(1)

(2)

(3)

Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93 (3), as last
amended by Regulation (EC) No 1630/2000 (4),
lays
down the procedure and conditions for the sale of
cereals held by intervention agencies.

Commission Regulation (EC) No 1081/2002 (5) opened a
standing invitation to tender for the export of 300 000
tonnes of barley held by the French intervention agency.
France informed the Commission of the intention of its
intervention agency to increase by 278 820 tonnes the
quantity for which a standing invitation to tender for
export has been opened. The total quantity of barley
held by the French intervention agency for which a
standing invitation to tender for export has been opened
should be increased to 578 820 tonnes.

This increase in the quantity put out to tender makes it
necessary to alter the list of regions and quantities in
store. Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1081/2002 must
therefore be amended.

Regulation (EC) No 1081/2002 is hereby amended as follows:

1. Article 2 is replaced by the following:

‘Article 2

The invitation to tender shall cover a maximum of
1.
578 820 tonnes of barley to be exported to all third coun-
tries with the exception of the United States of America,
Canada and Mexico.

The regions in which the 578 820 tonnes of barley

2.
are stored are stated in Annex I to this Regulation.’

2. Annex I is replaced by the Annex hereto.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publica-
tion in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

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

Done at Brussels, 21 January 2003.
