COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 37/2007

of 17 January 2007

amending Regulation (EC) No 990/2006 opening standing invitations to tender for the export of
cereals held by the intervention agencies of the Member States

Having regard to the Treaty
Community,

establishing the European

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 of
29 September 2003 on the common organisation of the market
in cereals (1), and in particular Article 6 thereof,

Whereas:

(2)

Article 10(2) of Regulation (EC) No 990/2006 (2)
requires the obligation to export to be covered by a
security equal to the difference between the intervention
price applying on the day of the award and the price
awarded, but not less than EUR 25 per tonne.

The comparative situation of the prices of rye on the
export market and internal market might make it finan-
those operators who successfully
cially attractive for
tender for the lots of rye for export to sell
it instead
on the internal market, even if by so doing they lose
the security.
In order to avoid this situation and to
ensure that the tendering process covered by Regulation
(EC) No 990/2006 works effectively, the security for rye
should be increased.

(4)

Regulation (EC) No 990/2006 should be amended
accordingly.

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in
accordance with the opinion of
the Management
Committee for Cereals,
