For the marketing year 1973/ 1974 "the Council of Ministers has provided for
an increase of 0,20 u,a,/lC0 kg of tLe basic intervention price for colza
and rape seed , as well as for sunflower seed .
The development of transport costs in the Community does not -Justify ad
adjustment of the regionalisation currently in force# Furthermore the Council
decision to maintain for one marketing year the additional subsidy for colza
processed in Italy likewise leads to the retention of the current regionali-
sation .
In tie circumstances , it is proposed to increase the derived intervention
prices "by the same account as that laid down for the basic intervention price
However , the level of the intervention prices fdr colza in one region in the
Community posed some problems as regards sale during the marketing year 1972/
1973 .
M the danger exists that these problems may arise to a much more seriojxs
degree during the marketing year 1973/1 974 * is appears to be necessary to
maintain the derived intervention prices applicable in the said region at
their current level .
Finally , the derived intervention prices applicable in the United Kingdom and
Denmark have been calculated in accordance with Article 52 of the Act concer­
ning the Conditions of Accession and the Adjustments to the Treaties .

derived intervention prices applicable thereto must be fixed for the' 1973/74
marketing year ;
Whereas the places with the largest markets . situated in the main production
are as should be taken as the main intervention centres ; whereas , to ensure -
an appropriate price level for Community seeds in deficit areas , th      most re-r
presentative places for the processing of seeds should also be used , as well
as places situated outside production areas which are representative as
regards internal trade and the export of seeds ;
Whereas , in accordance with Article 24 of Regulation No 136/66/EEC, derived
intervention prices must be fixed at a level permitting seed to move freely
within the Community, under natural conditions of price formation and in
accordance with the needs of the market ; whereas to that end , intervention
prices should be fixed so that the differences between them correspond to the
price differences to be expected in the case of a normal harvest ; whereas the
application of these criteria necessitate certain alterations to the derived        j
intervention prices ;
