      COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1267/2007
   of 26 October 2007
   on special conditions for the granting of private storage aid for pigmeat
   THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
   Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organisation of the market in pigmeat (1), and in particular Article 4(6) and Article 5(4) thereof,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               Intervention measures may be taken in respect of pigmeat if, on the representative markets of the Community, the average price for pig carcases is less than 103 % of the basic price and is likely to remain below that level.
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               Market prices have fallen below that level and, given seasonal and cyclical trends, this situation could persist.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               Intervention measures must be taken. These can be limited to the granting of private storage aid in accordance with Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3444/90 of 27 November 1990 laying down detailed rules for granting private storage aid for pigmeat (2).
            
         
               (4)
            
            
               Under Article 3 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2763/75 of 29 October 1975 laying down general rules for granting private storage aid for pigmeat (3), the Commission may decide to reduce or extend the storage period. As well as the amounts of aid for specific periods of storage, the amounts to be added or deducted in the event the Commission adopts such a decision should be fixed.
            
         
               (5)
            
            
               In order to facilitate administrative and control work relating to the conclusion of contracts, minimum quantities should be fixed.
            
         
               (6)
            
            
               The security should be fixed at a level that will ensure storers fulfil their contractual obligations.
            
         
               (7)
