Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 of 30

down the procedure and conditions for the disposal of
cereals held by intervention agencies.

intervention agency to increase by 17 488 tonnes the
quantity put out to tender for export. In view of the
market situation, the request made by Finland should be

This increase in quantity put out to tender makes it
