    COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2033/2004

    of 26 November 2004

    opening a tendering procedure for the refund on consignment of husked long-grain B rice to Réunion

    THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

    Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

    Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003 of 29 September 2003 on the common organisation of the market in rice (1), and in particular Article 5(3) thereof,

    Whereas:

    (1)

    Examination of the supply balance in Réunion indicates that rice is in short supply. In view of the rice available on the Community market, Réunion should be able to be supplied with rice from the Community market by granting a subsidy for consignments of rice intended for consumption there. Because of Réunion's particular circumstances, it is appropriate to limit the quantities to be sent and thus fix the amount of the subsidy by tendering procedure.

    (2)

    It should be stated that Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2692/89 of 6 September 1989 laying down detailed rules for exports of rice to Réunion (2) applies to this tendering procedure.

    (3)

    Under Article 14 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2808/98 of 22 December 1998 laying down detailed rules for the application of the agrimonetary system for the euro in agriculture (3), amounts quoted in tenders submitted in response to invitations to tender organised under an instrument forming part of the common agricultural policy must be expressed in euro.

    (4)

    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

    1.   A tendering procedure is hereby opened to fix the amount of the subsidy for the consignment to Réunion of husked long-grain B rice falling within CN code 1006 20 98, referred to in Article 5(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003.

    2.   The tendering procedure shall be open until 23 June 2005. During that period regular invitations to tender shall be issued and the date for submission of tenders shall be set down in the notice of invitation to tender.

    3.   The tendering procedure shall take place in accordance with Regulation (EEC) No 2692/89 and this Regulation.
