 In pursuance of Article 5 ( 5 ) of Regulation No 120/67/feEC the "threshold,
 prices for flours of wheat , meslin and rye and wheat groats and meals
must "be fixed in accordance with the rules and in respect of the stan­
 dard qualities laid down in Article 6 , 7 » 8 and 9 of Council Regulation
 (EEC ) No 1397/69 * The Regulation as it now stands lays down inter alia
a milling margin of 13.75 units of account per metric ton of basic cereal
and lump sums of 65 .-– and 60 .–- units of account per metric ton for the
"by–products , graded or not graded of common wheat and rye respectively.
The milling margin has not been changed since 1967 an no longer reflects
the increase in costs .
The market prices of the by-products , fixed by Regulation (EEC ) No 1397/69
for the calculation of threshold prices for common wheat and rye flours
at 65 .-- and 60 .– units of account per ton respectively and based on an
average for the 1968/69 marketing year , have increased considerably since
that time .
Studies made with experts from the Member States indicate that these two
elements of the calculation must be adjusted to more realistic levels .
It is therefore proposed to fix the milling margin at 25 .– units of
account per metric ton and the value of by-products at 85®– and 80.–
units of account per metric ton for the by-products of common wheat
flour and rye flour respectively.
This draft Regulation implements the up–dating which has become absolutely
necessary.
