of 23 January 2009

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1),

Whereas:
|
(1) |
Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 687/2008 lays down rules for awarding the quantities of maize eligible for intervention for the 2008/09 marketing year. Quantities are awarded in two stages, referred to as ‘period 1’ and ‘period 2’. |

(2) |
The total quantity of maize offered for intervention in period 1, which ran from 1 August to 31 December 2008, did not exceed the limit laid down in point (a) of the second subparagraph of Article 11(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007. The quantity of maize that may be offered for intervention in period 2 of the 2008/09 marketing year should therefore be published. |

That day is the first day for the submission of offers in all Member States, and the period in question ends no later than 30 April in Greece, Spain, Italy and Portugal, 30 June in Sweden and 31 May in the other Member States. This Regulation should therefore enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union, |
