                  modifying the intervention arrangements for butter
                               and for skimmed-milk powder
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community ,
Having regard to Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 804 / 68 of 27 June 1968 on the
common organization of the market in milk and milk products ( 1 ), as last
amended by Regulation ( EEC ) No 231 / 87 ( 2 ), and in particular the second
subparagraph of Article 7a(l ) thereof ,
Whereas Article 6(1 ) of Regulation ( EEC ) No 804 / 68 introduced a permanent
arrangement for the buying-in of butter meeting certain standards ;       whereas
Article 7(1 ) of that Regulation introduced an arrangement for the buying-in of
skimmed-milk powder meeting certain standards during the period 1 March to
31 August ;
Whereas Article 7a of the said Regulation empowers the Commission to modify ,
on the basis of criteria to be adopted by the Council , the arrangements for
the buying-in of butter and of skimmed-milk powder ;
Whereas it is evident from the volume of batter stocks that the intervention
arrangements have ceased to fulfil their normal function ; whereas the level
of stocks beyond which corrective action can be taken should be determined ;
Whereas the purpose of intervention is to withdraw from the market those
quantities that are genuinely surplus ; whereas , when the average Community
market price exceeds a certain percentage of the intervention price , it should
be possible for buying-in to be suspended in Member States under certain
conditions ; whereas it should be possible when suspension occurs for other
action to be taken to maintain market stability ,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION :
( 1 ) OJ No L 148 , 28.6.1968 , p. 13 .
( 2 ) OJ No L 25 , 28.1.1987 , p. 3 .
 ---pagebreak---                                         Article 1
1.  When stocks of butter bought in by the intervention agencies pursuant to
    Article 6(1 ) of Regulation ( EEC ) No 804 / 68 exceed 200 000 tonnes in total
    ( a ) the conditions set out in Article 1 of Regulation ( EEC ) No 985 / 68 may
          be made more stringent ;
    ( b ) the buying-in price may be varied with the seasonal trend of
          production .
2.  When stocks of butter bought in pursuant to Article 6(1 ) of Regulation
    ( EEC ) No 804 / 68 by the intervention agencies exceed 300 000 tonnes in
    total and when the Community average of the market prices for butter
    recorded on the reference markets to be established exceeds 90 % of the
    intervention price , buying-in of butter by the intervention agencies may
    be suspended in the Member States where the market prices exceed 90 % of
    the intervention price .
    In that case :
    ( a ) butter may be bought in by the intervention agency under a standing
          invitation to tender on the basis of specifications to be determined ;
    ( b ) other action may be taken to maintain market stability .
                                        Article 2
1.  When stocks of skimmed-milk powder bought in pursuant to Article 6(1 ) of
    Regulation ( EEC ) No 804 / 68 by the intervention agencies exceed 300 000
    tonnes in total and when the Community average of the market prices for
    skimmed-milk powder recorded on the reference markets to be established
    exceeds 90 % of the intervention price , buying-in of skimmed-milk powder
    by the intervention agencies may be suspended in the Member States where
    the market prices exceed 90 % of the intervention price .
    In that case :
    ( a ) skimmed-milk powder may be bought in by the intervention agency under
          a standing invitation to tender on the basis of specifications to be
          determined ;
    ( b ) other action may be taken to maintain market stability .
                                        Article 3
The measures provided for in Articles 1 and 2 shall be restricted to the
period of application of the additional levy arrangements set out in
Article 5c of Regulation ( EEC ) No 804 / 68 .

   OBSERVATIONS : This measure should limit purchases into intervention of butter and
      skimmed milk powder and could, as a result , lead to lower expenditure for the
      EAGGF for public storage . It is not possible to calculate this lower expenditure
      similarly, it is difficult to calculate the cost of the possible measures which
      could be introduced to maintain market stability .
