COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 195/89
of 23 January 1989
amending Regulation (EEC) No 1581/86 laying down general rules for intervention on the market in cereals as regards the conditions under which products may be sold for supply as Community food aid
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of the Council of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1097/88(2), and in particular Article 7 (4) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1581/86 (3) provides that cereals held by intervention agencies must be sold by tender; whereas there should be a derogation from that selling procedure in the case of Community food aid supplied pursuant to international food aid conventions or other complementary programmes;
Whereas, for the purposes of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3972/86 of 22 December 1986 on food-aid policy and food-aid management (4), the products to be supplied by the successful tenderer are always purchased by the latter; whereas, where products held by intervention agencies are being mobilized, the most suitable procedure for bringing about satisfactory competition between all Community traders in order to calculate the overall supply costs would be to sell the products concerned at prices and in accordance with detailed rules of application which are determined in advance and which are designed to avoid disruption on the Community market and distortion of the conditions of competition; whereas the use of that procedure should be specified in the case of Community food aid supplied pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 1581/86,
