COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1757/2004

of 11 October 2004

opening an invitation to tender for the refund on barley exports to certain third countries

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1784/2003 of 29 September 2003 on the common organisation of the market in cereals (1), and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 13(3) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Given the present market situation for cereals an invitation to tender for the export refund on barley should be opened in accordance with Article 4 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1501/95 of 29 June 1995 laying down certain detailed rules for application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 covering the granting of export refunds on cereals and the measures to be taken in the event of disturbance in the cereals sector (2).

(2)

The tendering procedure rules to be followed when export refunds are set are contained in Regulation (EC) No 1501/95. Among these is a requirement to submit an export licence application and lodge a security. The rate of that security should be set.

(3)

A specific period of validity must be set for the licences issued under this invitation. The validity should be appropriate to world market requirements for the 2004/2005 marketing year.

(4)

So that all parties are treated equally, all licences issued should have the same period of validity.

(5)

Satisfactory operation of export tendering procedures requires that a minimum quantity be set and also a time limit and form of transmission for the lodging of tenders with the competent authority.

(6)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
