COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 712/2007
of 22 June 2007
opening standing invitations to tender for the resale on the Community market of cereals held by the intervention agencies of the Member States
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 of 29 September 2003 on the common organisation of the market in cereals (1), and in particular Article 6 and the second paragraph of Article 24 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Under Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93 of 28 July 1993 laying down the procedures and conditions for the sale of cereals held by intervention agencies (2), cereals held by intervention agencies are to be sold by tendering procedure at prices preventing market disturbance. |
(2) |
The Member States have intervention stocks of maize, common wheat, barley and rye. To meet market needs, these stocks of cereals should be made available on the Community market. To this end, standing invitations to tender should be opened for the resale on the Community market of cereals held by the intervention agencies of the Member States. Each sale should be considered to constitute a separate invitation to tender. |
(3) |
Derogations should be made from the terms laid down by Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93 as regards the level of the security required. This security should be set at a sufficiently high level. |
(4) |
To take account of the situation on the Community market, provision should be made for the Commission to manage this invitation to tender. In addition, provision must be made for an award coefficient for tenders offering the minimum selling price. |
(5) |
With a view to the sound management of the system, provision should be made for the electronic transmission of the information required by the Commission. It is important for the notification by the intervention agencies to the Commission to maintain the anonymity of the tenderers. |
(6) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The intervention agencies of the Member States listed in Annex I shall open standing invitations to tender for the sale on the Community market of cereals held by them. The maximum quantities of the different cereals covered by these invitations to tender are shown in Annex I.
Article 2
The sales referred to in Article 1 shall be carried out under the terms laid down by Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93. However, notwithstanding the second subparagraph of Article 13(4) of that Regulation, the tender security shall be set at EUR 10 per tonne.
Article 3
1. The deadline for the submission of tenders for the first partial invitation to tender shall be 13.00 (Brussels time) on 4 July 2007.
The closing dates for the submission of tenders for subsequent partial invitations to tender shall be each Wednesday at 13.00 (Brussels time), with the exception of 1 August 2007, 15 August 2007, 22 August 2007, 5 September 2007, 19 September 2007, 3 October 2007, 17 October 2007, 31 October 2007, 14 November 2007, 28 November 2007, 12 December 2007, 26 December 2007, 2 January 2008, 16 January 2008, 23 January 2008, 6 February 2008, 20 February 2008, 5 March 2008, 19 March 2008, 2 April 2008, 16 April 2008, 30 April 2008, 14 May 2008, 21 May 2008, 4 June 2008 and 18 June 2008, i.e. weeks when no invitation to tender shall be made.
The closing date for the submission of tenders for the last partial invitation to tender shall be 13.00 (Brussels time) on 25 June 2008.
2. Tenders must be lodged with the intervention agencies concerned at the addresses shown in Annex I.
Article 4
Within four hours of the expiry of the deadline for the submission of tenders laid down in Article 3(1), the intervention agencies concerned shall notify the Commission of tenders received. If no tenders are received, the Member State shall notify the Commission within the same time limits. If the Member State does not send a communication to the Commission within the given deadline, the Commission shall consider that no tender has been submitted in the Member State concerned.
The communications referred to in the first subparagraph shall be sent electronically, in accordance with the model in Annex II. A separate form for each type of cereal shall be sent to the Commission for each invitation to tender. The tenderers shall not be identified.
Article 5
1. Under the procedure laid down in Article 25(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003, the Commission shall set the minimum selling price for each cereal or decide not to award any quantities.
2. If the fixing of a minimum price, in accordance with paragraph 1, would lead to an overrun on the maximum quantity available to a Member State, an award coefficient may be fixed at the same time for the quantities offered at the minimum price in order to comply with the maximum quantity available to that Member State.
Article 6
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 22 June 2007.
