Commission Regulation (EC) No 2098/2001
of 25 October 2001
fixing the export refunds on cereal-based compound feedingstuffs
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 of 30 June 1992 on the common organization of the market in cereals(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1666/2000(2), and in particular Article 13(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 provides that the difference between quotations or prices on the world market for the products listed in Article 1 of that Regulation and prices for those products within the Community may be covered by an export refund.
(2) Regulation (EC) No 1517/95 of 29 June 1995 laying down detailed rules for the application of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 as regards the arrangements for the export and import of compound feedingstuffs based on cereals and amending Regulation (EC) No 1162/95 laying down special detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences for cereals and rice(3) in Article 2 lays down general rules for fixing the amount of such refunds.
(3) That calculation must also take account of the cereal products content. In the interest of simplification, the refund should be paid in respect of two categories of "cereal products", namely for maize, the most commonly used cereal in exported compound feeds and maize products, and for "other cereals", these being eligible cereal products excluding maize and maize products. A refund should be granted in respect of the quantity of cereal products present in the compound feedingstuff.
(4) Furthermore, the amount of the refund must also take into account the possibilities and conditions for the sale of those products on the world market, the need to avoid disturbances on the Community market and the economic aspect of the export.
(5) However, in fixing the rate of refund it would seem advisable to base it at this time on the difference in the cost of raw inputs widely used in compound feedingstuffs as the Community and world markets, allowing more accurate account to be taken of the commercial conditions under which such products are exported.
(6) The refund must be fixed once a month; whereas it may be altered in the intervening period.
(7) The Management Committee for Cereals has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,
The export refunds on the compound feedingstuffs covered by Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 and subject to Regulation (EC) No 1517/95 are hereby fixed as shown in the Annex to this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 26 October 2001.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
COMMISSION DECISION  of 11 February 1992  amending the Seventh Council Decision 85/355/EEC on the equivalence of field inspections carried out in third countries on seed-producing crops and the Seventh Council Decision 85/356/EEC on the  equivalence of seed produced in third countries  (92/135/EEC)

Whereas, in Decision 85/355/EEC, the Council determined that field inspections carried out in certain third countries on seed-producing crops of certain species satisfy the conditions laid down in the Community directives;
Whereas, in Decision 85/356/EEC, the Council determined that seed of certain species produced in certain third countries is equivalent to corresponding seed produced in the Community;
Whereas for certain species these determinations include the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic;
Whereas an examination of the rules of the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic and of the manner in which they are applied has shown that, in respect of white mustard, the prescribed field inspections satisfy the conditions laid down in Annex I to  Directive 69/208/EEC and the conditions governing seed harvested and controlled there afford the same assurances, as regards the seed's characteristics, identity, examination, marking and control as do the conditions applicable to such seed harvested  and controlled within the Community;
Whereas the existing equivalence for the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic should therefore be extended accordingly;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry,
The table in Part I (2) of the Annex to Decision 85/355/EEC is hereby amended by inserting in Column 3 of the section relating to the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic the species 'Sinapis alba' after the species 'Brassica napus ssp.  oleifera'.
