REGULATION (EEC) No 651/71 OF THE COMMISSION  of 29 March 1971  on certain detailed rules for the application of export refunds on oil seeds  THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community;  Having regard to Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC 1 of 22 September 1966 on the common organisation of the market in oils and fats, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2554/70, 2 and in particular Article 28 (3) thereof;  Having regard to Council Regulation 162/66/EEC 3 of 27 October 1966 on trade in oils and fats between the Community and Greece, and in particular Article 8 thereof;  Having regard to Council Regulation No 142/67/EEC 4 of 21 June 1967 on export refunds on colza, rape and sunflower seeds, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2556/70, 5 and in particular Articles 5 (3) and (6) thereof;  Whereas some of the provisions of Commission Regulation No 284/67/EEC 6 of 11 June 1967 on certain detailed rules for the application of export refunds on oil seeds, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1486/69, 7 and of Commission Regulation No 901/67/EEC 8 of 24 November 1967 on the system of advance fixing of refunds on certain exports of oil seeds, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1801/68, 9 have been taken over into Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2637/70 10 of 23 December 1970 on special detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences and advance fixing certificates for agricultural products ; whereas other provisions of Regulations Nos 284/67/EEC and 901/67/EEC must be adapted to the situation produced by Regulation (EEC) No 2637/70 ; whereas those two Regulations should therefore be replaced by the provisions which follow;  Whereas, to avoid distortions between the export refund system and the subsidy system provided for in Article 27 of Regulation No 136/66/EEC, the amount of refund should be calculated on the basis of the weight of seed containing the same percentages of moisture and impurities as standard quality seed;  Whereas, to ensure uniform application of the refund system in all Member States, the methods for determining impurities and moisture, together with the techniques used, should be uniform throughout the Community;  Whereas the denaturing for export of seeds harvested within the Community is of no economic interest to traders ; whereas it may therefore be assumed that seeds for export which have been denatured or which show signs of having been denatured have, in whole or in part, been imported ; whereas, to prevent fraudulent practices, these seeds must therefore be excluded from the export refund system;  Whereas, to take particular terms of purchase in certain third countries into account, Article 11 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2637/70 provides for the period of validity of licences to be extended in respect of exports to those countries ; whereas to ensure that the products in respect of which this extension is granted are in fact those which are exported to those countries, payment of the refund should be subject to proof being furnished that the product has reached its destination;  Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the Opinion of the Management Committee for Oils and Fats;  1OJ No 172, 30.9.1966, p. 3025/66. 2OJ No L 275, 19.12.1970, p. 5. 3OJ No 197, 29.10.1966, p. 3393/66. 4OJ No 125, 30.6.1967, p. 2461/67. 5OJ No L 275, 19.12.1970, p. 8. 6OJ No 151, 13.7.1967, p. 6. 7OJ No L 186, 30.7.1969, p. 7. 8OJ No L 287, 25.11.1967, p. 12. 9OJ No L 275, 13.11.1968, p. 6. 10OJ No L 283, 29.12.1970, p. 15.   HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:    Article 1 The amount of the export refund shall be calculated on the basis of the weight of exported seeds determined in accordance with the formula set out in the Annex so as to take account of differences between the percentages of moisture and impurities found to exist and those used to define the standard quality for which the target price is fixed.   Article 2 The methods used for drawing samples, for reducing contract samples to samples for analysis and for determining impurities and moisture shall be uniform throughout the Community.   Article 3 The refund shall not be granted in respect of the seeds defined in Article 1 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 190/68 1 of 16 January 1968 on the denaturing process for colza and rape seed.   Article 4 Where Article 11 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2637/70 is applied, the refund shall be paid subject to the condition laid down in Article 5 (1) of Regulation No 142/67/EEC and upon proof that the product has reached the destination for which the licence was issued.   Article 5 Regulations Nos 284/67/EFC and 901/67/EEC are hereby repealed.   Article 6 This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
