                                 EXPLANATORY MEMORAHDUM
In view of the Councils decision "to inorease the basic targets* and intervention
prices by 11$ for colza and rapeseed and 1 2$ for sunflower seed forJl 975/76
market' year , the following should also be fixed for the same year :

    1 . The princi$g intervention centres and the -ml ntiod intervention prices they
         should apply ;
    2 . The compensatory amounts applicable to colza and rapeseed harvested in Denmark
         and the U.K. :
    3 . The monthly increases in the target and intervention prices for colza and
         rapeseed and sunflower seed .                                               '
1 . ) As regards the intervention centres for colza and rapeseed , the regional divisions
        were modified for the 1974/75 year , with the object-'–          ojicy. -
        of abolishing the supplementary aid for colza seed processed in Italy .
      " In 1 974 » the colza seed market in Itlfty was disrupted by health problems ,
        with the result that a definitive assessment of the operation of the new
        system of regional divisions cannot yet be made .    It should , however , be noted
       that/ production was marketed without difficulty d&spite the fact that it rose

   since there was little change in transport costs in relation to the 1974/ 75
                                                    •                    t
  year , it has been proposed that the existing regional divisions should be retained
   for 1975/76 whilst raising the intervention prices derived from the amount^
  by which the basic intervention price has been increased .
   In view of the 12% rise in the basic intervention price for sunflower seed ,
       cCe Mv/ecf
  the rrmil ti    intervention prices for the aforementioned seeds should be
   increased by the same amount .

  to the treaties provides that the -reaultiwg intervention prices applicable in
  Denmark and the United Kingdom must progressively be aliened with the level of
  the common prices . Consequently , therefore , a move towards ali^ment corresponding

                                                                               PK
     to g, quarter of th § diffirehQa between th© oemmort pjfiefce and "the prices
     current in the two Member States concerned should be carried out , thus
     decreasing the applicable compenatory amounts .
3 .) Article ?5 of Regulation No I36/ 66/ EEC provides that the number and amount
     of the monthly increases in the target and intervention prices for oilseeds
     shall be fixed each year by the Council .
     Since the various costs of which account is taken in calculating the
     monthly increases and the value of the stored products have increased since
     the 1974/75 marketing year , it has been proposed that for 1975/76 , "the
     amounts of the monthly increases should be raised by 0.07 u.a./lOO kg
     colza seed and 0.08 u.a./lOO kg for sunflower seed , whilst the number of
     increases should continue to be seven in respect of colza seed and five
     in respect of sunflower seed .
Financial cocts
The costs of the measures set , under points 2 and 3 should     amount , in 1975/76
to approximately 3 000 000 u.a ..

VJhereas , in aocordanoe with Artiole 22 ( 2) of Regulation No 136/66/EEXJ the
main intervention centres for colza , rape and sunflower seeds , and the derived
intervention prices applicable thereto must be fixed for the 1975/1976 marke­
ting year ;
Whereas the places with the largest markets situated in the main production
areas should be taken as the main intervention centres ; whereas , to ensure an
appropriate price level for Community seeds in deficit areas , the most represen­
tative plaoes for the processing of seeds should also be used , as well as places
situated outside production areas whioh are representative as regards internal
trade and the export of seeds ;
Whereas , in aocordanoe with Artiole 24 of Regulation No 136/66/EEXJ , derived
intervention prioes must be fixed at a level permitting seed to move freely
within the Community , under natural conditions of prioe conditions of price for­
mation and in aooordanoe with the needs of the market ; whereas , to that end ,
intervention prioes should be fixed so that thfe differences between them corres­
pond to the price differences to be expeoted in the case of a normal harvest ;

Whereas , in accordance with Article 25 of Regulation No 136/66/EEC , the amount
by which the target and intervention prices for colza , rape seed and sunflower
seeds are increased monthly from the beginning of the third montjj of the marke­

months during wiiich such increases are to be applied should be determined ;
whereas such amount must be the same for both prices ;
Whereas such increases must be the same for each month and be fixed by referenoe
to average storage and interest charges recorded in the Community ; whereas ave­
rage storage charges should be determined on the basis of the cost of storing
the seed in suitable places and of the handling charges necessary to keep the
seed in gpod condition ; vhereas interest charges may be calculated, on the basis
of the rate considered as normal for the production areas ;
