COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 1009/86
of 25 March 1986
establishing general rules applying to production refunds in the cereals and rice sector
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1006/86 (2), and in particular Articles 11 (4) and 11a (4) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1418/76 of 21 June 1976 on the common organization of the market in rice (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1007/86 (4), and in particular Articles 9 (2) and 9a (3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas on account of the special situation on the market in starches and, in particular, the need to ensure that prices are competitive with those of starches produced in third countries and imported in the form of products covered by import arrangements which provide insufficient protection for Community products, Regulations (EEC) No 2727/75 and (EEC) No 1418/76 provide for the granting of a production refund to enable the user industries to obtain starch and certain derived products at a price lower than would result from the application of the rules of the common organization of the markets in the products in question;
Whereas the abovementioned Regulations provide for a list to be established of products for the manufacture of which the use of starch affords entitlement to the refund; whereas that list should be open to amendment, taking into account certain given criteria;
Whereas in order to make the supervision measures more effective, it should be laid down that beneficiaries of the refund must have received prior approval from the Member State in whose territory the products mentioned above are manufactured;
Whereas in order to bring about the transition to the new arrangements for production refunds the amounts of the refunds provided for in Regulation (EEC) No 2742/75 (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3794/85 (6), should be amended for the transitional period of the 1986/87 and 1988/89 marketing years;
Whereas in fixing the production refunds for starches, account must be taken of the difference in prices, on the world and Community market, between the basic cereal products most commonly used for the manufacture of starch,
