COMMISSION  REGULATION (EEC) No 455/87
of 13 February 1987
amending Regulation (EEC) No 2409/86 on the sale of intervention butter intended for incorporation in compound feedingstuffs
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 985/68 of 15 July 1968 laying down general rules for intervention on the market in butter and cream (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3790/85 (2), and in particular Article 7 (a) thereof,
Whereas it is specified at (b) of Article 26 (2) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2409/86 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3987/86 (4), that the butter shall be sold ex store at a price equal to the minimum selling price fixed plus 2 ECU per 100 kg; whereas experience has shown that this additional amount is too high a proportion of the selling price; whereas in order to promote sales at a fixed price it should be reduced;
Whereas Article 24 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2409/86 fixes a period running from the closing date for a submission of tenders during which the butter is to be removed; whereas the length of this period as given in the latest amendment to Regulation (EEC) No 2409/86 does not correspond to that referred to the Management Committee for its opinion; whereas the Regulation should therefore be amended accordingly;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
