amending Regulation (EC) No 796/2006, as regards the list of Member States where buying-in of
butter by tendering is open for the period expiring on 31 August 2006

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty

establishing the European

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),

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 796/2006 of
29 May 2006 suspending the buying-in of butter at 90 % of the
intervention price and opening the buying-in by tendering for
the period expiring on 31 August 2006 (2), and in particular

(2)

Regulation (EC) No 796/2006 has opened the buying-in
of butter by tendering for the period expiring on 31
August 2006 in accordance with the third subparagraph
of Article 6(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999.

On the basis of most recent communications by Estonia,
the Commission has observed that
the butter market
prices have been equal or above 92 % of the intervention
price for two consecutive weeks. Intervention buying-in
by tendering should therefore be suspended in this

Member State. This Member State should therefore be
removed from the list set out in Regulation (EC) No
796/2006.

(3)

Regulation (EC) No 796/2006 should therefore be
amended accordingly,

replaced by the following:

‘1.
Buying-in of butter by tendering, as provided for in

2006 in the following Member States, under the conditions
in Section 3a of Regulation (EC) No

On 20 July 2006, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to
Article 4 (and following a referral pursuant to Article 4(5)) of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by
which Thule AB (‘Thule’, Sweden, controlled by Candover, UK) acquires within the meaning of Article
3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation control of CHAAS Holdings BV (‘CHAAS’, Netherlands), Advanced Acces-
sory Systems, LLC (‘Advanced Accessory Systems’, USA) and the assets of Valley Industries, Inc (‘Valley’,
USA), by way of purchase of shares and assets.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

— for Thule: load carrying system for passenger cars, trailers for passenger cars, traction equipment for
passenger cars and for heavy vehicles and accessories for recreational vehicles, i.e. mobile homes and
caravans

— for Candover: investment fund;

— for CHAAS: shareholder of Brink, tow bars, and wiring kits;
