  LAYING DOWN THE GENERAL RULES FOR THE SUPPLY OF FOOD FROM INTERVENTION STOCKS
              TO DESIGNATED ORGANISATIONS FOR DISTRIBUTION TO THE
                      MOST DEPRIVED PERSONS IN THE COMMUNITY
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community , and
in particluar Article 43 thereof ,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament ( 1 )
Whereas in the wake of the exceptionally cold winter of 1986 / 87 the Community
applied , during several months in 1987 , measures involving the supply of
various foods to charitable organisations for distribution to the most
deprived persons in the Community ;
Whereas reports from the Member States and from various of the charitable
organisations involved in the measures applied for several months in 1987 show
that they were of considerable value to the beneficiaries ,
Whereas the Community has through its intervention stocks of various
agricultural products the potential means to make a significant contribution
towards the well-being of its most deprived persons ; whereas it is in the
Community interest and in line with the objectives of the Common Agricultural
Policy , to exploit this potential on a durable basis by introducing
appropriate measures , whereas experience gained from the application of the
measures applied for several months in 1987 should help shape any subsequent
action of a similar nature , whereas it is appropriate to consolidate in one
text the legal basis for the implementation of such measures ,
