Whereas for offers and prices which do not comply with the conditions laid down above, the necessary adjustments should be made, and in particular those referred to in Article 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 2049/82;
Whereas the world market price may be amended during the intervening period if the factors taken into consideration at the time of its fixing undergo a significant change;
Whereas the world market price has considerably decreased during recent weeks;
