of 17 July 2007
amending Regulation (EC) No 712/2007 as regards the quantities covered by the standing invitation to tender for the resale on the Community market of cereals held by the intervention agencies of the Member States
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 of 29 September 2003 on the common organisation of the market in cereals (1), and in particular Article 6 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 712/2007 (2) opens standing invitations to tender for the resale on the Community market of cereals held by the intervention agencies of the Member States.
(2) In view of the situation on the Community market for maize, common wheat and barley and of the changes in demand for cereals in various regions in recent weeks, new quantities of cereals held in intervention should be made available in some Member States. The intervention agencies in the Member States concerned should therefore be authorised to increase the quantities put out to tender by 500 000 tonnes of maize in Hungary, 29 244 tonnes of common wheat in Hungary and 13 218 tonnes of barley in France.
(3) Under the last invitations to tender for the 2006/07 marketing year, in June 2007, the resale of rye on the internal market under the standing invitation to tender opened by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1483/2006 (3) increased sharply with a resultant fall in the intervention stocks of rye available for resale on the internal market during the 2007/08 marketing year. In view of this situation, the quantity of rye originally made available for the standing invitation to tender opened by Regulation (EC) No 712/2007 should be reduced by 11 578 tonnes.
(4) Regulation (EC) No 712/2007 should be amended accordingly.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
