l#.With Regulation ( EEC ) NO 569/ 76 , THE Counoil laid down as from the 1976/77
    marketing year , speoial measures for linseed whether from seed flax or from
    fibre flax. These measures mainly consist of the granting of a subsidy equal to
    the difference between the guide price fixed for linseed and the world market
    price#
2 * In view of the characteristics of this type of flax it i s laid down that in the
    oase of fibre flax the subsidy shall effectively be paid to the person selling
    the seed at the world market prioe i.e. the purchaser of the straw.
    However , the producer should also benefit from the advantages of the subsidy
    system# This is possible if the contracting parties take into acoourft. the guids
    price fixed for linseed at the time of the sale of the flax straw#
3# To achieve this , the Commission purposes to supplement the outline provisions for
    contraots for the sale of flax straw with the oompulsory mention that the prioe
    deterained takes into account the guide price fixed for linseed .
