                             EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
1 . In "the course of "the application of the rules adopted "by the Council on
     permanent intervention on the market in beef and veal , certain technical
     difficulties have been noted , in particualr in Germany , Denmark and Ireland ,
     due to the fact that the freezing and storage capacity of the intervention
     centres is insufficient to deal with the amounts of meat offered for inter­
    vention .
2. It was thus necessary to amend Commission Regulation (EEC ) No 1896/73 to
    authorize intervention agencies in Member States to limit buying–in to
    quantities they can freeze and Btore , while ensuring that equality of access
    to intervention on the part of sellers is affected as little as possible by
     such limitations^.
3 . In addition , provision should be made for the taking over by    the EAGGP of
    the additional expenditure incurred in transporting products     offered for
    intervention to intervention centres more distant than those     chosen by the
    seller or designated by the intervention agency as being one     of the nearest
    centres .
    Similar provisions are already in force for other agricultural markets , for
    example milk and milk products .
    Financial effects of the proposed measures
    These can be estimated at about 500 000 units of account per annum .
    It should be stressed that to make this expenditure eligible under the
    Guarantee Section of the EAGGP , a provision will have to be added to
    Article 3(l ) of Council Regulation (EEC ) No 2305/70 of 10 November 1970
    on the financing of intervention expenses on the internal market in beef
    and veal (OJ No L 249 » 17 November 1970 » P * l )*
    A proposal to this end will be submitted veiy shortly .
