Commission Regulation (EC) No 1365/2002

Whereas:
(1) Part 1 of Annex I to Commission Regulation (EC) No 21/2002 of 28 December 2001 establishing the supply balances and Community aid for the outermost regions under Council Regulations (EC) No 1452/2001, (EC) 1453/2001 and (EC) No 1454/2001(2), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1291/2002(3), lays down the forecast supply balances and fixes the Community aid for cereals and cereal products for the French overseas departments in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1452/2001.
(2) In the case of common wheat, the forecast supply balance provides for an annual quantity of 40000 tonnes for Guadeloupe and 2000 tonnes for Martinique. The current level of implementation of the specific supply arrangement indicates that the quantities set for Martinique are below the requirements of this region.
