   of 22 July 2009
   amending Regulation (EC) No 623/2009 fixing the import duties in the cereals sector applicable from 16 July 2009
   THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
   Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1),
   Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1249/96 of 28 June 1996 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 in respect of import duties in the cereals sector (2), and in particular Article 2(1) thereof,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               The import duties in the cereals sector applicable from 16 July 2009 were fixed by Commission Regulation (EC) No 623/2009 (3).
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               As the average of the import duties calculated differs by more than EUR 5/tonne from that fixed, a corresponding adjustment must be made to the import duties fixed by Regulation (EC) No 623/2009.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               Regulation (EC) No 623/2009 should therefore be amended accordingly,
