REGULATION (EEC) No 225/72 OF THE COUNCIL  of 31 January 1972  supplementing Regulation (EEC) No 206/68 laying down outline provisions for contracts and inter-trade agreements on the purchase of beet
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community;
Having regard to Council Regulation No 1009/67/EEC 1 of 18 December 1967 on the common organization of the market in sugar, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2727/71 2 and in particular Article 6 thereof;
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission;
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 206/68 3 of 20 February 1968 laying down outline provisions for contracts and inter-trade agreements on the purchase of beet lays down provisions regarding the price for beet to be paid to beet sellers by the sugar manufacturers;
Whereas an increase in the intervention price for sugar from one marketing year to the next may lead to an increase in the value of stocks held at the time of transition between those two marketing years, unless for those stocks the increase has been made subject to a levy ; whereas it is reasonable to give the beet seller the benefit of the increase in the intervention price for sugar resulting from the increase in the price for beet and to supplement Regulation (EEC) No 206/68 accordingly;
