COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1898/2005

of 9 November 2005

laying down detailed rules for implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 as regards
measures for the disposal of cream, butter and concentrated butter on the Community market

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

and (EC) No 2571/97 should therefore be repealed and
replaced by a new Regulation.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Com-
munity,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of
17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in
milk and milk products (1), and in particular Articles 10, 15
and 40 thereof,

Whereas:

(2)

In the light of the experience gained in recent years,
further changes should be made to Commission Regu-
lation (EC) No 2571/97 of 15 December 1997 on the
sale of butter at reduced prices and the granting of aid
for cream, butter and concentrated butter for use in the
manufacture of pastry products,
ice-cream and other
foodstuffs (2) in order to simplify the aid scheme.

In the interests of harmonisation, that Regulation should
also cover the other schemes for the disposal of the
same products, provided for in Commission Regulation
(EEC) No 2191/81 of 31 July 1981 on the granting of
aid for the purchase of butter by non-profit-making
institutions and organisations (3), Commission Regulation
(EEC) No 429/90 of 20 February 1990 on the granting
by invitation to tender of an aid for concentrated butter
intended for direct consumption in the Community (4)
and Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1609/88 of 9 June
1988 setting the latest time of entry into storage for
butter sold under Regulations (EEC) No 3143/85 and
(EC) No 2571/97 (5).

The intervention arrangements provided for in Commis-
sion Regulation (EEC) No 3143/85 of 11 November
1985 on the sale at reduced prices of intervention butter
intended for direct consumption in the form of concen-
trated butter (6)
and Commission Regulation (EEC)
No 3378/91 of 20 November 1991 laying down
detailed rules for the sale of butter from intervention
stocks
for export and amending Regulation (EEC)
No 569/88 (7) have not been applied for some years and
the current market situation does not warrant keeping
them.

(5)

Regulations (EEC) No 3143/85 and (EEC) No 3378/91
should therefore be repealed.

(6)

There are surpluses on the Community butter market.
Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 provides
that when surpluses of milk products build up, or are
likely to occur, the Commission may decide that aid is
to be granted to enable cream, butter and concentrated
butter to be obtained at reduced prices by purchasers for
the purposes provided for.

There are also substantial stocks on the Community
butter market, formed as a result of intervention opera-
tions carried out under Article 6(1) and (2) of Regulation
(EC) No 1255/1999. It is not possible to dispose of all
these stocks in the normal way during the milk year.
Special measures referred to in the second subparagraph
of Article 6(4) of that Regulation should therefore be
taken to facilitate disposal of the butter.

cream must meet
laid down in
Article 6(3) and (6) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999.

the requirements

In order to ensure that only products offering a high
standard of health protection are subsidised, butter,
concentrated butter and cream eligible for aid should
meet the requirements of Council Directive 92/46/EEC
of 16 June 1992 laying down the health rules for the
production and placing on the market of raw milk, heat-
treated milk and milk-based products (1). In particular,
they should be prepared in an approved establishment
and comply with the health marking requirements speci-
fied in Section A of Chapter IV of Annex C to that
Directive.

In order to allow the Commission the flexibility it needs

flat-rate

The size of the reduction in the price, or the amount of
aid when it is paid before the butter has reached its final
destination, warrants the introduction of a system of
securities, whether
tendering securities or
processing securities fixed according to the price or aid
amount, intended to ensure that the successful tenderers
actually fulfil their obligations. However, certain deroga-
tions should be made from Commission Regulation
(EEC) No 2220/85 of 22 July 1985 laying down
common detailed rules for the application of the system
of securities for agricultural products (2) to take account
of the specific features of the disposal measures.

To ensure that the disposal measures are applied in a
uniform fashion and that the supervision procedures are
effective, the subsidised products, whether or not tracers
have been added, either without further processing or
processed into concentrated butter, should be incorpo-
rated into final products within set deadlines. For the aid
and the processing security, a penalty in butter equiva-
lent should be calculated for cases where the subsidised
products are not used and incorporated into final
products by the deadline set. However, if for duly justi-
fied commercial reasons the basic products containing
tracers cannot be used by the purchaser, the successful
tenderer should be allowed, under certain conditions, to
rework those products.

In view of the current market situation and the reduc-

during recent years, the tendering security should be
reduced.

that

Sold butter should,
in principle, be under supervision
from the time it leaves storage until it is incorporated
into final products as defined. A distinction should be
made between the supervision measures designed to
ensure
subsidised products are not used for
purposes other than their intended use according to
whether or not the butter contains tracers and according
to the quantities used and the size of the establishments
using the products. Adequate supervision measures
should also be adopted for milkfat, butter and cream
intended for the manufacture of concentrated butter,
including checks to ensure that those products do not
contain fats other than butterfat.

(22) Disposal measures may include the grant of aid for
concentrated butter intended for direct consumption. To
ensure that such aid is fixed at the level which is strictly
necessary and to supervise the quantities concerned
effectively, a standing invitation to tender procedure
should be used, which will also ensure equal access for
interested operators. Moreover, aid should be granted
only for butter offering a high standard of health protec-
tion.

Steps should be taken to ensure differentiation at all
stages of marketing between concentrated butter

butter. To that end, provisions
concerning the composition and description of concen-

trated butter. In order to ensure compliance with the
aims of this Regulation, a time limit should be fixed for
processing the butter and the cream into concentrated
butter and for packing.

(24) A system of checks should be applied to ensure that
concentrated butter intended for direct consumption is
not used for other purposes and having regard to the
the operation, particularly in
specific
connection with the manufacture of concentrated butter,
the parties concerned should be required to keep stock
records. However, such checks should end at the stage
immediately preceding taking-over by the retail sector.

So that butter can be purchased at a reduced price, in
particular by non-profit-making institutions and organi-
sations, detailed rules should be laid down for the grant
of aid for butter purchased by such bodies. However, aid
should be granted only for butter meeting certain quality
criteria and offering a high standard of health protec-
tion.

For supervision reasons, the aid should be limited to
butter purchased in the Member State of the beneficiary
from an approved supplier in that Member State. To
facilitate supervision, the marking to be shown on packs
of butter qualifying for aid should be specified.

TION OF INTERVENTION BUTTER, BUTTER, CONCENTRATED
BUTTER AND CREAM

Article 6

1.
The intervention butter, butter or concentrated butter
shall be incorporated, exclusively and notwithstanding any
intermediate products as referred to in Article 10, into final
products in one of the following ways:

(a) after adding the tracers referred to in Article 8(1):

(i) after processing the intervention butter into concen-

trated butter, in accordance with Article 7;

or

(ii) without further processing;

(b) by using, at the establishment where incorporation into the
final products is effected, a minimum of five tonnes per
month or 45 tonnes per 12-month period of butter-equiva-
lent or the same quantities in intermediate products:

(i) after processing the intervention butter into concen-

trated butter, in accordance with Article 7;

or

(ii) without further processing.

Article 7

Where the intervention butter is to be processed into concen-
trated butter, fractionated or not, all the butter awarded to the
tenderer shall be processed into concentrated butter meeting
the requirements set out in Annex III and shall produce at least
100 kilograms of concentrated butter per 122,5 kilograms of
intervention butter used.

Article 8

1. Where the incorporation procedure used is that provided
for in Article 6(1)(a), the following shall be added, to the exclu-
sion of any other products, in such a way that they are evenly
distributed, according to the minimum quantities prescribed:

(a) if the intervention butter, butter or concentrated butter is
to be incorporated into products corresponding to formula
A in Annex I (hereinafter called formula A), the tracers
listed in Annex IV;

(b) if the intervention butter, butter or concentrated butter is
to be incorporated into products corresponding to formula
B in Annex I (hereinafter called formula B), the tracers
listed in Annex V;

(c) in the case of cream, the tracers listed in Annex VI.

In the case of concentrated butter, the tracers referred to in
points (a) and (b) of the first subparagraph shall be added
during or immediately after manufacture, in the same establish-
ment.

2. Where, for example because of uneven distribution or the
incorporation of insufficient quantities, the content of each of
the tracers referred to in Annexes IV and V and in point 1 of
Annex VI is found to be more than 5 % but less than 30 %
below the minimum quantities prescribed, then 1,5 % of the
processing security referred to in Article 28 shall be forfeited
or the aid shall be reduced by 1,5 % for each percentage point
below the prescribed minimum quantities. If the content of
each of those tracers is found to be equal or more than 30 %
below the minimum quantities prescribed, then, in the case of
the processing security referred to in
intervention butter,
Article 28 shall be forfeited and,
in the case of products
referred to in Article 5(1), the aid shall not be paid.

The cream shall be incorporated, directly and exclusively into
final products referred to in Annex I, formula B, in one of the
ways referred to in the first subparagraph of this paragraph.

2.
Further processing of final products shall be permitted
only if the products obtained fall within one of the CN codes
referred to in Annex I.

The first subparagraph shall not apply in the case of organo-
leptic tracers if the products referred to in points I(a) and II(a)
of Annex IV, points I(a) and II(a) of Annex V and point 1(a) of
Annex VI are added in such quantities that their flavour, colour
or aroma can be perceived up to the stage of incorporation
into final products or, where applicable,
into intermediate
products as referred to in Article 10.

the concentrated butter may be repackaged in sealed packages
as provided for in this Article at an establishment approved for
that purpose in accordance with Article 13.

Approval shall be granted on the basis of an application speci-
fying in particular the composition and butterfat content of the
products manufactured and showing that incorporation into
such intermediate products is justified for the manufacture of
the final products.

supervision and in compliance with this Regulation,
in the
same establishment approved for adding tracers, provided there
is no change from the intended use or the incorporation proce-
