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

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

On the basis of most recent communications by Latvia
and the Czech Republic, the Commission has observed
that the butter market prices have been below 92 % of
the intervention price for two consecutive weeks. Inter-
vention buying-in by tendering should therefore be

opened in these Member States. These Member States
should therefore be added to the list set out in Regu-

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

1255/1999, is hereby open from 19 to 31 August 2006 in
the following Member States, under the conditions provided
for in Section 3a of Regulation (EC) No 2771/1999: Czech

In accordance with Article 30 of Directive 2002/83/EC (1) concerning life assurance, the amount laid down
in euro in Article 29(2) was reviewed in 2005 in order to take account of changes in the European index
of consumer prices comprising all Member States as published by Eurostat. As a result of the review, the
amount laid down in euro is increased from EUR 3 000 000 to EUR 3 200 000. The Commission Services

In accordance with Article 17a of Directive 73/239/EEC (2) on the coordination of the laws, regulations
and administrative provisions relating to the taking-up and pursuit of the business of direct insurance
other than life assurance, as amended by Directive 2002/13/EC (3), the amounts laid down in euro in
Article 16(a) (3) and (4) and Article 17(2) were reviewed in 2005 in order to take account of changes in
the European index of consumer prices comprising all Member States as published by Eurostat. As a result
of the review, the amount laid down in euro in Article 16(a)(3) is increased from EUR 50 000 000 to
EUR 53 100 000. The amount laid down in euro in Article 16(a)(4) is increased from EUR 35 000 000 to
EUR 37 200 000. The amounts laid down in euro in Article 17(2) are increased from EUR 2 000 000 to
EUR 2 200 000 and from EUR 3 000 000 to EUR 3 200 000 respectively. The Commission Services
