 1*     Articles 14 and 15 of Regulation (EEC ) No 1418/76       provide that the
        Council shall fix each year , before 1 May , acting in accordance with
        the voting procedure laid down in Article 43 ( 2 ) of the Treaty
        – the threshold price for husked round grain rice
        – the threshold price for broken rice .
2.      In accordance with Article 14, paragraph 2 of Regulation (EEC ) No 1418/76
        the threshold price for husked round grain rice shall be fixed in such a       ■>
        way that the selling price of the imported product corresponds to the
        target price of the same product . To achieve this , account has been taken ,
        in the present draft Regulation , of the transport costs by barge of 1 500 ton
        of rice from Rotterdam to Duisburg , of the unloading costs at Rotterdam and
        of importing margins which have been deducted from the target price .
3*      So that imports of broken rice do not restrict the normal flow of pro­
        duction over the Community market as a whole , a threshold price for
        broken rice is proposed at a level situated between the limits fixed
        in Artiole 15 ( l ) of Regulation (EEC ) No 1418/76 .

                                of
determining for the 1977/78 marketing year the threshold prices for husked rice
                                       and broken rice
THE COUNCIL OP THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community ,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC ) No 1418/76 of 21 June 1976 on the
 common organization of the market in rice           as last amended by Regulation
 (EEC) No       /77^and in particular Articles 14 ( 4) and 15 ( 3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
Whereas Article 14 ( 2) of Regulation (EEC ) No 1418/76 provides that the
threshold price for husked rice must be fixed in such a way that the selling
price of imported husked rice on the Duisburg market corresponds to the target
price ; whereas this object is attained by deducting from the target price        the items
referred to in paragraph 2(a ) thereof ;
Whereas Article 15 ( l )- of Regulation (EEC ) No I4I8/76 provides that the threshold
price for broken rice must be fixed between a lower and an upper limit calculated
 in relation to the threshold price for maize ;
whereas , so that imports of broken rice do not restrict the normal flow of
production over the Community market as a whole , the threshold price for broken
rice should be fixed between these limits ,
