Article 13(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 and

provide that the difference between quotations of prices
on the world market for the products listed in Article 1
of each of those Regulations and the prices within the
Community may be covered by an export refund.

Commission Regulation (EC) No 1520/2000 of 13 July
