                   PROPOSAL FOR A COUNCIL REGULATION ( EEC )
               FIXING A CARRY-OVER PAYMENT FOR COMMON WHEAT ,
                      RYE AND MAIZE REMAINING IN STOCK AT
                     THE END OF THE 1979 / 80 MARKETING YEAR

C0M(80 ) 161 final
 ---pagebreak---                        EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
This proposal relates to the fixing , in aocordance with the proportions of
Artiole 9 of Regulation (EEC ) No 2727/75 * of a carry-over payment for
certain oereals in stook on the market at the end of the 1979/80 marketing
year .
The granting of the carry-over payment is proposed for common wheat , rye
used in the milling industry , and for maize in stock in the surplus zones
of the Community .
This measure is intended to forestall an inflow of cereals into interven­
tion before the end of the marketing year , following the likely reper­
cussions of the international political situation on "both the world market
and the Community market .     '
                                                                            #■
 ---pagebreak---                                      Proposal for a
                        COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC )
  fixing a carry–over payment for oommon wheat , rye and maize remaining in
  stock at the end of the 1979/80 marketing year
  THE COUNCIL OP THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community ,
  Having regard to Counoil Regulation (EEC ) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on
  the common organization of the market in cereals           as last amended by
  Regulation (EEC ) No      /      ^     and in particular Artide 9 ( l ) and ( 5 )
  thereof ,
  Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
  Whereas one of the purposes of the carry–over payment provided for in Artiole
  9 (l ) of Regulation (EEC ) No 2727/75 is "to prevent a massive inflow to inter­
  vention of cereals , much cf vhich could be directly disposed of on the maj>-
  ket before the new harvest , at the moment when the monthly intervention
  price increases endj whereas the market situation for common wheat through­
  out the Community and that for rye used for human consumption in certain
^ regions of the Community cure such that a carry–over payment should be gran­
  ted for these cerealsj
  Whereas there is a likelihood in certain regions of quantities of maize
  being offered for intervention although a deficit exists in the Community
  as a whole | whereas a carry-over payment should therefore also be given for
  this cereal | whereas , since the marketing of a crop normally extends beyond
  the end of the marketing year , the granting of a carry-over payment helps
  to prevent the large quantities normally in stock at the end of the marke­
  ting year going to intervention during its last few months}'
 Whereas the amount of the carry-over payment should be fixed by taking the
  difference between the target prices , in national currency , valid on 31 July
 and 1 August I98O5 whereas , where the calculation gives a negative amount ,
 the payment should be counted as niii

                                                                           7.

Whereas the carry-over payment cannot "be given for cereals harvested xn the
Community during 1980, as their cost has not been increased by any storage
element ; whereas , in view of the connection between the intervention and the
oarry–over payment systems , carry-over payments should be given only for
oereals which are of sound , genuine and merchantable quality , within the
meaning of the provisions adopted in implementation of Article J ( 5 ) of ,
Regulation (EEC ) No 2727/75 } whereas , however , in respect of rye held by
the milling industry , milling for human consumption is accepted as proof
of sufficient quality,,'
HA.S ADOPTED THIS REGULATION I
                                    Article 1
1 . A carry–over payment shall be granted for common wheat and rye used for
    human consumption , harves'ted in the Community and in store there at the
    end of the 1979/80 marketing year .
2 . A carry–over payment shall also be granted for maize harvested in the
    Community and in store in surplus production areas of the Community at
    the end of the 1979/80 marketing year 0
3 . The carry-over payment granted shall be equal to the difference between
    the target price , in national ourrency , valid in the last month of the
    1979/80 marketing year and that valid , in national currency , in the first
    month of the 1980/81 marketing year. Where the calculation gives a negar-
    tive amount the payment shal'l be counted as nil .
                                    Article 2
The carry–over payments referred to in Artiole 1 ( l ) and ( 2 ) shall not be
made for cereals from the 1980 harvest or for cereals which do not meet
the quality conditions required for intervention during the 1979/80 marke­
 ting year .
 In respect of rye held by the milling industry at the end of the marketing
year , milling for human consumption is accepted as proof of sufficient
 quality.
                                                                            V.
