COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2271/95 of  27 September 1995 on the sale of certain products of the beef and veal sector held by intervention  agencies to certain welfare institutions and bodies, and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 2848/89
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of  the market in beef and veal  (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 424/95  (2), and in  particular Article 7 (3) thereof,
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 98/69  (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 3290/94  (4),  lays down the general rules for the disposal of frozen beef bought in by the intervention agencies;  whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2173/79  (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1759/93   (6), lays down the detailed rules for that disposal;
Whereas the level of intervention stocks makes special sales possible to certain welfare  institutions and bodies with a view of incorporating the meat in the provisioning of the persons  for whom the institutions and bodies are responsible; whereas such sales are not likely to  interfere with the normal disposal of meat on the market;
Whereas the beef should be sold at prices fixed in advance in accordance with Regulation (EEC) No  2173/79; whereas, however, special appropriate provisions should be adopted, in particular in  respect of detailed rules of control and minimum quantities adopted to the requirements of the  purchasers;
Whereas in order to ensure that the products reach the intended destination a supplementary  security should be lodged where use is made of an agent or intermediary;
Whereas a direct distribution of the meat in the form of prepared meals is equally an appropriate  way to ensure that the products reach the intended destination; whereas, however, under certain  conditions the distribution of the beef may be made in an unprepared state at cost price;
Whereas products held by intervention agencies and sold for a specific end-use are subject to  Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3002/92  (7), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1938/93  (8);
Whereas the provisions of this Regulation replace and supplement those laid down in Commission  Regulation (EEC) No 2848/89  (9), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 274/95  (10); whereas the  Regulation (EEC) No 2848/89 should therefore be repealed;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the  Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
