COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 570/88 of 16 February 1988 on the sale of butter at reduced prices and the granting of aid for butter and concentrated butter for use in the manufacture of pastry products, ice-cream and other foodstuffs THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,  Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 17 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3904/87 (2), and in particular Articles 6 (7), 12 (3) and 28 thereof,  Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 985/68 of 15 July 1968 laying down general rules for intervention on the market in butter and cream (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 222/88 (4), and in particular Article 7a thereof,  Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1677/85 of 11 June 1985 on monetary compensatory amounts in agriculture (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1889/87 (6), and in particular Article 12 thereof,  Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 262/79 (7), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 222/88 provides for the sale at reduced prices of butter from stock intended for the manufacture of pastry products, ice-cream and other foodstuffs; whereas  Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1932/81 (8), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 222/88, provides, with the same aims in view, for the grant of an aid to market butter and concentrated butter; whereas both Regulations have often been amended and, to  widen scope for access to them, they require a number of adjustments; whereas if the legislation is to be clear and effective, these Regulations must be repealed and replaced by a single instrument;  Whereas the butter market in the Community is encumbered by heavy stocks bought in pursuant to Article 6 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 804/68; whereas all the butter (9) OJ No L 148, 28. 6. 1968, p. 13.  (10) OJ No L 370, 30. 12. 1987, p. 1.  (11) OJ No L 169, 18. 7. 1968, p. 1.  (12) OJ No L 28, 1. 2. 1988, p. 1.  (13) OJ No L 164, 24. 6. 1985, p. 6.  (14) OJ No L 182, 3. 7. 1987, p. 1.

(16) OJ No L 191, 14. 7. 1981, p. 6.  corresponding to these stocks cannot be disposed of in the normal way; whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1723/81 (17), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 863/84 (18), lays down general rules on measures intended to maintain the level of use of market  butter by certain classes of consumer and undertakings; whereas, in both cases, the sale of butter from stock at reduced prices or the introduction of aids reducing market butter prices to a level comparable with that charged for butter from stock, in  favour of certain Community processing firms with a view to the manufacture of pastry products, ice-cream or other foodstuffs, should help to promote the disposal and use of butter;  Whereas, in order to ensure equal access to the butter for all purchasers and the fixing of the aid at a level strictly necessary, and to supervise effectively the quantities concerned, the standing invitation for tender procedure should be used;  Whereas the butter, whether sold at reduced prices or qualifying for the aid, may be used for different purposes under an initial choice of formula available to the operators; whereas the fat content may be equal to or less than 82 %, and whereas it may  be used according to a number of processing methods relating to any concentration and addition of tracers; whereas, accordingly, the possibility of fixing different minimum prices or maximum aid amounts should be allowed, according to the options  chosen;  Whereas the purchase of the butter or grant of the aid should be made subject to compliance with certain requirements designed to ensure that the butter is not diverted from its intended use; whereas, apart from the verification provisions laid down  under Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1687/76 of 30 June 1976 laying down common detailed rules for verifying the use and/or destination of products from intervention (19), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 165/88 (20), other provisions should be  laid down to take account of the specific character of the disposal programme; whereas it is, in particular, in line with the purpose of the Regulation to require the successful tenderer to carry out the concentration and tracing operations, and to  authorize the ¹(21) OJ No L 172, 30. 6. 1981, p. 14.  (22) OJ No L 90, 1. 4. 1984, p. 23.  (23) OJ No L 190, 14. 7. 1976, p. 1.  (24) OJ No L 18, 22. 1. 1988, p. 40.  sale by contract either of the product thus obtained or directly of the butter if it has not been concentrated and tracers have not been added;  Whereas the butter sold must normally be verified on removal from stock until incorporation in the final products specified; whereas, to reconcile verification requirements with the actual circumstances in which undertakings operate, verification  measures should be differentiated depending on whether tracers have been added to the butter or not, depending on the quantities used and depending on the size of user establishments; whereas the provisions thus adopted apply to subsidized butter as  well if tracers have been added to it;  Whereas the size of the price reduction or the aid amount where such aid is paid before the butter has reached its final destination justifies the introduction of a security system, either in respect of tendering, set on a flat-rate basis, or in respect  of processing, related to the level of the prices or the amount of the aids, the purpose being to ensure that the obligations incumbent upon successful tenderers are in fact complied with; whereas a number of derogations should nevertheless be made to  the provisions of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2220/85 of 22 July 1985 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of securities for agricultural products (25), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1181/87 (26), to allow for the  specific nature of the programme;  Whereas the incorporation into final products of butter sold or subsidized, whether with tracers or not, unprocessed or after processing into concentrated butter, must be carried out within the time limits set in order to ensure uniform application of  the programme and effective control;  Whereas, as regards the monetary compensatory amounts fixed pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 1677/85, the value of the butter used should be taken into account; whereas, for this purpose, application of a coefficient to the amounts paid or charged  pursuant to the Commission Regulation fixing the monetary compensatory amounts should be provided for;  Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,  (27) OJ No L 205, 3. 8. 1985, p. 5.  (28) OJ No L 113, 30. 4. 1987, p. 31.

Tenders relating to the sale of butter shall state:  (a)  the name and address of the tenderer;  (b)  the quantity to which the tender relates, specifying the fat content of the butter where the intervention agency concerned has offered for sale butter of a fat content of less than 82 %;  (c)  the intented use (formula A/C or formula B or formula D) and the incorporation procedure chosen, having regard to the relevant provisions of Article 3;  EWG:L055UMBE2A.96 FF: 0UEN;   SETUP: 01;   Hoehe: 1969 mm;   395 Zeilen;   17879 Zeichen;  Bediener: MARK   Pr.: C;  Kunde:  1. 3. 88 Official Journal of the European Communities (d)  the price offered per 100 kg of butter having the fat content required, exclusive of internal taxes, ex coldstore, expressed in the currency of the Member State on whose territory the butter is stored;  (e)  where appropriate, the Member State on whose territory the butter is to be incorporated into the final products or the butter is to be processed into concentrated butter or tracers are to be added to the butter, or intermediate products are to be  manufactured.  (f)  and, where appropriate, the coldstore in which the butter is held and if desired an alternative store.  Tenders relating to two or more stores, irrespective of any alternative store, shall be considered to comprise as many tenders as there are coldstores mentioned.  3.  Tenders for the grant of aid shall state:  (a)  the name and address of the tenderer;  (b)  the quantity of butter or concentrated butter in respect of which aid is requested and, in the case of butter, the fat content;  (c)  the intended use (formula A/C or formula B or formula D) and the incorporation procedure chosen, having regard to the relevant provisions of Article 3;  (d)  the proposed amount of the aid per 100 kg of butter or concentrated butter, disregarding any tracers, expressed in the currency of the Member State in which the tender is submitted;  4.  A tender shall not be valid unless:  (a)  it relates to a single product only (awarded butter, butter or concentrated butter), having a uniform fat content (82 % or more, or less than 82 %) in the case of butter, is intended for the same use (formula A/C or formula B or formula D) and is  subject to the same incorporation procedure;  (b)  it relates to at least 5 tonnes of butter or 4 tonnes of concentrated butter; however, if the quantity available in a store is less, the available quantity shall constitute the minimum quantity for tender;  (c)  it is accompanied by the undertaking referred to in the opening words of Article 3 and, where appropriate, the undertaking referred to in Article 3 (b);  (d)  without prejudice to Article 18 (4), the tenderer includes a declaration to the effect that he agrees to forgo any claim as to the quality and characteristics of any butter awarded to him;  (e)  proof is furnished that before expiry of the period set for the submission of tenders, the tenderer has lodged the tendering security referred to in Article 17 (1) in respect of the relevant individual invitation to tender.  The undertakings and declarations referred to in (c) and (d) forwarded initially to the intervention agency shall be tacitly renewed in respect of subsequent tenders until this arrangement is expressly terminated by the tenderer or the intervention agency, on condition that:  - the original tender states that the tenderer wishes to avail himself of this provision,  - subsequent tenders make reference to this provision (second subparagraph of Article 16 (4) and to the date of the original tender.  5.  No tender may be withdrawn after the closing date as specified in Article 14 (2) for the specific invitation to tender concerned.  Article 17 1.  For the purposes of this Regulation, maintenance of the tender after the closing date for the submission of tenders and, where appropriate,  - for awarded butter, the lodging of the processing security referred to in Article 18 (2) and the payment of the price within the period set in Article 20 (2),  - for the products referred to in the second paragraph of Article 1 and, where Article 3 (a) applies, the lodging of the processing security referred to in Article 18 (2) shall constitute primary requirements compliance with which shall be sanctioned by the lodging of a tendering security of 60 ECU per tonne.  2.  Tendering securities shall be lodged in the Member State in which the tender is submitted.  However, if the tender states, in accordance with Article 16 (2) (e), that incorporation into the final products or, where appropriate, the manufacture of the concentrated butter or the addition to the butter of tracers, or the manufacture of  intermediate products will be effected in a Member State other than the Member State in which the tender has been lodged, the security may be lodged with the competent authority designated by such other Member State, which shall issue to the tenderer  the proof referred to in Article 16 (4) (e). In such cases, the intervention agency concerned shall inform the competent authority of the other Member State of the circumstances entailing release or forfeiture of the security.  Article 18 1.  In the light of the tenders received in response to each individual invitation to tender and in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 30 of Regulation (EEC) No 804/68, a minimum selling price shall be fixed for the butter and  a maximum amount of aid shall be fixed for the butter or concentrated butter. The price or amount thus fixed may be differentiated according to:  - the intended (formula A/C or formula B or formula D),  - the fat content of the butter,  - the incorporation procedure to be followed in accordance with Article 3.  A decision may be taken to make no award in respect of an invitation to tender.  2.  At the same time as the minimum selling price(s) or amount(s) of aid are fixed and under the same procedure, the amount(s) of the processing security shall be fixed per 100 kilograms by reference either to the difference between the intervention  price and the minimum prices or to the amounts of aid. The purpose of the processing security shall be to ensure fulfilment of the primary requirements concerning:  (a)  either, for awarded butter:  - the processing of the butter into concentrated butter in accordance with Article 5 and the addition, where appropriate, of tracers, or the addition of tracers to the butter,  and - the incorporation of the butter or the concentrated butter to which tracers have or have not been added into the final products,  (b)  or, as regards the products referred to in the second paragraph of Article 1 and where Article 3 (a) is applied, incorporation into the final products.  3.  The proof required for the purposes of the release of the processing security referred to in paragraph 2 must be produced within 12 months of expiry of the period laid down in the third indent of Article 11.  Where the periods set in Article 11 are not complied with, by less than a total of 60 days, the processing security shall be forfeited at the rate of 4 ECU per tonne per day. At the end of such period, the provisions of Article 23 of Regulation (EEC) No  2220/85 shall apply to the remaining amount.  4.  Where the primary requirements referred to in paragraph 2 (a) are not respected within the periods laid down in Article 11 because the butter awarded is found to be unsuitable for consumption, the processing securites shall nevertheless be released once appropriate action has been taken under the supervision of the authorities of the Member State concerned, with the agreement of the Commission.  Article 19 1.  Tenders shall be rejected if the price offered is lower than the minimum price or if the amount of the aid proposed exceeds the maximum amount of the aid, having due regard to the intended use, the fat content of the butter in question  and the incorporation procedure.  2.  Without prejudice to the provisions of paragraph 1, the successful tenderer shall be the tenderer offering the highest price or proposing the lowest aid amount.  3.  Under the sale procedure, if the quantity available in the store in question is not exhausted, contracts for the remaining quantity shall be awarded to the other tenderers according to the prices offered, starting with the highest price. Where the  remaining quantity is less than or equal to 1 tonne, that quantity shall be offered to the successful tenderers under the same conditions as the quantities already awarded to them.  Where acceptance of a tender would lead to a contract being awarded for more butter than is available at the coldstore in question, a contract shall be awarded to the tenderer concerned only in the respect of the quantity available. However,  notwithstanding the provisions of Article 16 (2) (f), the intervention agency shall designate other stores from which the quantity specified in the tender is to be made up.  Where acceptance of two or more tenders for a same coldstore offering the same prices for the same intended uses of the butter, the same fat content and the same method of incorporation would lead to contracts being awarded in excess of the quantity  available, the award shall be made by allocation of the quantity available proportionately to the quantities tendered for. However, should such an allocation lead to the award of quantities of less than 5 tonnes, the award shall be made by drawing  lots.  4.  Rights and obligations arising in connection with the invitation to tender shall not be transferable.  TITLE III Execution of the tendering procedure CHAPTER 1 Sales Article 20 1.  Each tenderer shall immediately be notified by the intervention agency of the result of his participation in an individual invitation to tender.  2.  The successful tenderer shall, before the removal of the butter and within the period specified in Article 21 (2), pay the intervention agency an amount corresponding to his tender for the quantity which he intends to remove from store.  3.  Except in cases of force majeure,  if the succesful tenderer has not made the payment within the specified period the tendering security referred to in Article 17 (1) shall be forfeited and the sale shall be cancelled in respect of the remaining  quantities.  Article 21 1.  When the amount referred to in Article 20 (2) has been paid and the securites referred to in Article 18 (2) have been lodged the intervention agency shall issue a removal warrant indicating:  (a)  the quantity in respect of which the conditions referred to above have been satisfied and the tender, identified by a serial number, to which it relates;  (b)  the coldstore where it is stored;  (c)  the final date for removal of the butter;  (d)  the closing date for the incorporation in the final products;  (e)  the incorporation procedure chosen, having regard to the provisions of Article 3, and the intended use (formula A/C, formula B or formula D).  2.  The successful tenderer shall remove the butter awarded to him within 45 days of the closing date for submission of tenders. Removal may be effected by instalments.  If the payment referred to in Article 20 (2) has been made without removal of the butter having been effected within the period referred to above, the successful tenderer shall bear the cost and risk of storing the butter with effect from the day  following that referred to in paragraph 1 (c).  3.  The butter shall be handed over by the intervention agency in packages bearing, in clearly visible and legible characters, an indication of the regulation and of the intended use (formula A/C or formula B or formula D) and of the incorporation  procedure chosen by reference to the relevant provisions of Article 3.  The butter shall remain in its original packaging until the start of the incorporation operations in accordance with Article 3.  4.  The intervention agency shall, for imperative and duly substantiated commercial reasons, authorize, under its supervision and, in compliance with the provisions of this Regulation, a change in the intended use or method of incorporating the butter,  where Article 3 (b) is applied or, prior to the addition of tracers, where Article 3 (a) is applied.  CHAPTER 2 Granting of aid Article 22 1.  Each tenderer shall immediately be notified by the intervention agency of the result of his participation in an individual invitation to tender.  2.  The successful tenderer shall be notified of the following in particular:  (a)  the amount of the aid awarded in respect of the quantity of butter or concentrated butter concerned and the tender, identified by a serial number to which it relates;  (b)  where appropriate, the amount of the processing security;  (c)  the closing date for incorporation in the final products;  (d)  the incorporation procedure chosen, having regard to the provisions of Article 3, and the intended use (formula A/C, formula B or formula D) without prejudice to the application, under this chapter, of the provisions of Article 21 (4).  3.  The aid shall not be paid to the successful tenderer unless, within 12 months of the expiry of the period specified in the third indent of Article 11, proof has been provided:  (a)  in respect of butter:  - that it has satisfied the conditions laid down in Article 1 (a),  and - that is has been incorporated into the final products within the period specified in the third indent of Article 11, or, where Article 3 (a) is applied, that the processing security referred to in Article 18 (2) has been lodged;  (b)  in respect of concentrated butter:  - that it has been manufactured in accordance with the specifications laid down in Annex IV within the period specified in the first indent of Article 11,  and - that it has been incorporated into final products within the period specified in the third indent of Article 11 or, where Article 3 (a) is applied, that the processing security referred to in Article 18 (2) has been lodged.  4.  The aid shall be paid within 60 days of the proof referred to in paragraph 3 having been presented to the intervention agency and in proportion to the quantities in respect of which such proof has been provided.  However, applications for the payment of the aid may be submitted only once a month in respect of a given tendering procedure.  Where the periods specified in the first or third indents of Article 11 are exceeded by less than a total of 60 days, as regards the products referred to in Article 3 (b), the aid shall be reduced by 4 ECU per tonne per day. At the end of this period,  the remaining amount of the aid shall be reduced by 15 %, and thereafter by 2 % for each extra day.  Where a subordinate obligation within the meaning of Article 20 of Regulation (EEC) No 2220/85 is not respected and in the absence of any specific penalty provided for under this Regulation, the aid shall be reduced by 15 %.  In cases of force majeure or where an administrative inquiry concerning entitlement to the aid has been initiated, payment shall not be made until entitlement to the aid has been acknowledged.  TITLE IV Control Measures Article 23 In order to ensure compliance with this Regulation, Member States shall adopt the following control measures, the cost of which they shall bear:  1.  During the manufacture of the concentrated butter, whether or not tracers are added, or during the addition of tracers to the butter, the competent agency shall ensure on-the-spot checks on the basis of the establishment's manufacturing programme as  referred to in Article 10 (2) (d) in such a way that each tender, as described in Article 16, is checked at least once.  Such checks shall entail the drawing of samples and shall relate in particular to the conditions of manufacture and to the quantity and composition of the product obtained by reference to the butter or cream used.  The checks shall be supplemented from time to time, on the basis of the quantities processed, by detailed scrutiny and by sampling of the records referred to in Article 10 (2) (c), where appropriate, of the accounts referred to in Article 12 (1) (b) and by verification of compliance with the conditions determining approval of the establishment.  2.  Checks on the incorporation of concentrated butter or butter in intermediate products must provide at least for the following:  (a)  Inspection of the establishments concerned shall take place on the spot as a function of the manufacturing programme, as referred to in Article 10 (2) (d), and shall be unannounced, as a function of the quantities used, but at least once a month.  It shall relate in particular to the conditions in which the intermediate products are manufactured and compliance with the requirements regarding butterfat content as declared in accordance with Article 9 (a), by means of:  - scrutiny of the records provided for in Article 10 (2) (c) in order to check the composition as declared of the manufactured products,  - the taking of samples and the examination of the fats used, in order to check the composition as indicated in the abovementioned records,  - checks on the inward and outward movement of products.  (b)  The inspection referred to in (a) shall be supplemented by checks as to whether the conditions for the approval of the undertaking have been respected, as appropriate the accounts referred to in Article 12 (1), and by detailed inspection of the aforesaid records carried out:  - by sampling, where Article 3 (a) is applied,  - for each batch, where Article 3 (b) is applied.  3.  Checks on the use of the concentrated butter or of the butter or of the intermediate product in the final products must include at least the following:  (a)  inspection of the establishments concerned shall take place on the spot, in order to check that the use to which the product is to be put as set out in the tender is being complied with, on the basis either of the records referred to in Article 10  (2) (c) or of the accounts referred to in Article 12 (1) (b):  - for each manufacturing batch, where Article 3 (b) is applied,  - by means of a sample, on the basis of the quantities used, where Article 3 (a) is applied, but at least once a month if 5 tonnes or more of butter or its equivalent are incorporated in the establishment per month. Such establishments shall forward  their manufacturing programme in accordance with Article 10 (2) (d).  (b)  where Article 3 (b) is applied, the checks referred to in (a) shall be carried out at least once a month and shall be supplemented periodically by checking compliance with:  - Article 1, second paragraph, if necessary, with, where appropriate, the taking of samples,  - the conditions for the approval of the establishment,  - the undertaking given under the abovementioned Article 3 (b). This provision is no longer applicable to an establishment which has not respected its undertaking.  4.  Where Article 3 (b) is applied, ´manufacturing batch' shall mean a quantity of products manufactured from butter or concentrated butter to which tracers have not been added, identified in relation to all or part of a tender as described in Article  16.  Where Article 3 (a) is applied, the check referred to in point 2 (a) and in the second indent of point 3 (a) shall be carried out by identifying the quantities used in relation to the tenders as described in Article 16.  5.  However, where Article 3 (a) is applied, the check referred to in point 3 shall be deemed to have been carried out if the successful tenderer or, where appropriate, the vendor submits a declaration by the final user, applicable to all sales, in  which the latter:  - confirms his undertaking, as set out in the sales contract, in accordance with the third indent of Article 12 (1) (c), to proceed to incorporation in the final products,  - states that he is aware of the penalties he may incur if he should be found, during any checks which the public authorities may perform, not to have fulfilled the obligations he has entered into.  Without prejudice to the said penalties which are or shall be laid down by the Member State concerned, a sum equal to the amount of the processing security referred to in Article 18 (2) relating to the quantities concerned shall be paid to the  intervention agency.  The Member States shall notify the Commission, before 1 March each year in respect of the previous year, of cases where this indent is applied.  This point shall apply only if the final user undertakes in writing to purchase over an annual period only a maximum quantity of 6 tonnes of butter or 5 tonnes of concentrated butter or the same quantity in intermediate products. It shall no longer  apply to a final user who has not complied with his undertaking.  Article 24 The products referred to in the second paragraph of Article 1 shall also be subject to the control referred to in Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 1687/76 from the beginning of the operations referred to in Article 6 and until incorporation  in the final products. The special entries to be made in box 44 of the Single Administrative Document or the most appropriate boxes of the document justifying the Community character of the products or in boxes 104, 106 and 107 of the control copy T 5  shall be those indicated in part II of the Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 1687/76, at point 25, under A,  (b) or (c).  TITLE V General provisions Article 25 For the purposes of this Regulation but except as regards Articles 9, 10 and 23, the Belgo-Luxembourg Economic Union shall be regarded as a single Member State.  Article 26 Commission Regulations (EEC) No 1687/76 and (EEC) No 2220/85 shall apply, except where otherwise specifically provided in this Regulation. The penalty for not respecting a subordinate obligation provided for in this Regulation shall be  exclusive of the penalties provided for by Regulation (EEC) No 2220/85.
