                       EXPLANAT ORY MEMORANDUM
      From 1 February 1973 colza and rape seed harvested in the
Member States of the enlarged Community will circulate freely between
the original and the new Member States .
      The fact that the intervention prices in Denmark and the
United Kingdom were fixed at a level considerably lower than that of
the prices applicable in the other Member States leads to the
possibility that seed harvested in those countries , having low
intervention prices , may be offered for intervention in Member States
where the price in question is higher .
      To prevent this from happening it should be provided that
colza and rape seed harvested in the United Kingdom and in Denmark
shall be offered for intervention only in the country of origin#

THE COUNCIL OF THE KJROFEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community}
Having regard to Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC (l ) of 22 September 1966 on
the establishment of a common organization of the market in oils and fats , as
last amended by Regulation (EEC ) No 1547/72 (2), aid. in particular Article 36

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission;
Whereas the intervention prices operative in Denmark and the United Kingdom
from 1 February 1973 ? fixed by Regulation (EEC ) No 2496/72 (3 ) ? are lower than
those applicable in the other Member States ; whereas it could thus happen that
seed harvested in Denmark and the United Kingdom would be offered for interven­
tion in Member States where the said prices are higher; whereas this could lead
to disorganized market conditions ; whereas intervention should therefore be
restrictedf in Denmark and the United Kingdom f to colza and rape seed harvested
in each of those countries , as long as the intervention prices applicable in
those two Member States remain lower than those applicable in the other Member
States ;
