COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1898/2005
of 9 November 2005
laying down detailed rules for implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 as regards measures for the disposal of cream, butter and concentrated butter on the Community market
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (1), and in particular Articles 10, 15 and 40 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
In the light of the experience gained in recent years, further changes should be made to Commission Regulation (EC) No 2571/97 of 15 December 1997 on the sale of butter at reduced prices and the granting of aid for cream, butter and concentrated butter for use in the manufacture of pastry products, ice-cream and other foodstuffs (2) in order to simplify the aid scheme. |
(2) |
In the interests of harmonisation, that Regulation should also cover the other schemes for the disposal of the same products, provided for in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2191/81 of 31 July 1981 on the granting of aid for the purchase of butter by non-profit-making institutions and organisations (3), Commission Regulation (EEC) No 429/90 of 20 February 1990 on the granting by invitation to tender of an aid for concentrated butter intended for direct consumption in the Community (4) and Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1609/88 of 9 June 1988 setting the latest time of entry into storage for butter sold under Regulations (EEC) No 3143/85 and (EC) No 2571/97 (5). |
(3) |
In the interests of clarity and rationality, Regulations (EEC) No 2191/81, (EEC) No 1609/88, (EEC) No 429/90 and (EC) No 2571/97 should therefore be repealed and replaced by a new Regulation. |
(4) |
The intervention arrangements provided for in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3143/85 of 11 November 1985 on the sale at reduced prices of intervention butter intended for direct consumption in the form of concentrated butter (6) and Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3378/91 of 20 November 1991 laying down detailed rules for the sale of butter from intervention stocks for export and amending Regulation (EEC) No 569/88 (7) have not been applied for some years and the current market situation does not warrant keeping them. |
(5) |
Regulations (EEC) No 3143/85 and (EEC) No 3378/91 should therefore be repealed. |
(6) |
There are surpluses on the Community butter market. Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 provides that when surpluses of milk products build up, or are likely to occur, the Commission may decide that aid is to be granted to enable cream, butter and concentrated butter to be obtained at reduced prices by purchasers for the purposes provided for. |
(7) |
There are also substantial stocks on the Community butter market, formed as a result of intervention operations carried out under Article 6(1) and (2) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999. It is not possible to dispose of all these stocks in the normal way during the milk year. Special measures referred to in the second subparagraph of Article 6(4) of that Regulation should therefore be taken to facilitate disposal of the butter. |
(8) |
Butter sold after intervention operations must have been taken into storage before a date to be determined. That date should be set in the light of the market situation, butter stock trends and available quantities. |
(9) |
For the purposes of defining what kinds of butter and cream are eligible for aid for the manufacture of pastry products, ice-cream and other foodstuffs, it should be specified that in order to qualify for the aid, butter and cream must meet the requirements laid down in Article 6(3) and (6) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999. |
(10) |
In order to ensure that only products offering a high standard of health protection are subsidised, butter, concentrated butter and cream eligible for aid should meet the requirements of Council Directive 92/46/EEC of 16 June 1992 laying down the health rules for the production and placing on the market of raw milk, heat-treated milk and milk-based products (8). In particular, they should be prepared in an approved establishment and comply with the health marking requirements specified in Section A of Chapter IV of Annex C to that Directive. |
(11) |
It should be specified that, with the exception of products falling within CN code ex 0405 10 30, products falling within CN codes 0401 to 0406 and certain mixtures may not be treated as intermediate products. |
(12) |
In the case of concentrated butter, in the interests of clarity, it should be confirmed that the production method which has been in use for many years may include fractionation, to take account of technological developments in the production and use of the raw material. It should also be accepted that concentrated butter may be obtained, in an approved establishment, from cream, butter or milkfat falling within CN code ex 0405 90 10 produced within a limited maximum period before its use in the manufacture of concentrated butter. In this case, the milkfat should be put up, packaged and transported in accordance with certain requirements. |
(13) |
In order to monitor the destination of subsidised products, rules should be laid down on the use and detection of tracers in such products and on the minimum content of tracers. In addition, certain tracers which are added in large quantities should be excluded. |
(14) |
In order to facilitate verification of compliance with the time limit for incorporation of products under this scheme into final products, the number of the tendering procedure should be indicated on the packaging. |
(15) |
The establishments at which the different manufacturing, processing and incorporation operations covered by this scheme are carried out, including the manufacture of milkfat, should be approved. In order to obtain approval, establishments should meet a number of conditions and give various undertakings. Where certain conditions or undertakings are not met, approval should be withdrawn or suspended for a period reflecting the seriousness of the breach. |
(16) |
In order to ensure that all purchasers have equal access to the butter and that the aid is set at the level which is strictly necessary, and in order to supervise the quantities concerned effectively, the standing invitation to tender procedure should be used. |
(17) |
In order to allow the Commission the flexibility it needs to manage the disposal measures properly, it should be allowed to decide that no award shall be made under a tendering procedure. |
(18) |
The size of the reduction in the price, or the amount of aid when it is paid before the butter has reached its final destination, warrants the introduction of a system of securities, whether flat-rate tendering securities or processing securities fixed according to the price or aid amount, intended to ensure that the successful tenderers actually fulfil their obligations. However, certain derogations should be made from Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2220/85 of 22 July 1985 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of securities for agricultural products (9) to take account of the specific features of the disposal measures. |
(19) |
To ensure that the disposal measures are applied in a uniform fashion and that the supervision procedures are effective, the subsidised products, whether or not tracers have been added, either without further processing or processed into concentrated butter, should be incorporated into final products within set deadlines. For the aid and the processing security, a penalty in butter equivalent should be calculated for cases where the subsidised products are not used and incorporated into final products by the deadline set. However, if for duly justified commercial reasons the basic products containing tracers cannot be used by the purchaser, the successful tenderer should be allowed, under certain conditions, to rework those products. |
(20) |
In view of the current market situation and the reductions in the amount of aid fixed by tendering procedure during recent years, the tendering security should be reduced. |
(21) |
Sold butter should, in principle, be under supervision from the time it leaves storage until it is incorporated into final products as defined. A distinction should be made between the supervision measures designed to ensure that subsidised products are not used for purposes other than their intended use according to whether or not the butter contains tracers and according to the quantities used and the size of the establishments using the products. Adequate supervision measures should also be adopted for milkfat, butter and cream intended for the manufacture of concentrated butter, including checks to ensure that those products do not contain fats other than butterfat. |
(22) |
Disposal measures may include the grant of aid for concentrated butter intended for direct consumption. To ensure that such aid is fixed at the level which is strictly necessary and to supervise the quantities concerned effectively, a standing invitation to tender procedure should be used, which will also ensure equal access for interested operators. Moreover, aid should be granted only for butter offering a high standard of health protection. |
(23) |
Steps should be taken to ensure differentiation at all stages of marketing between concentrated butter intended for direct consumption and other types of butter. To that end, provisions should be adopted concerning the composition and description of concentrated butter. In order to ensure compliance with the aims of this Regulation, a time limit should be fixed for processing the butter and the cream into concentrated butter and for packing. |
(24) |
A system of checks should be applied to ensure that concentrated butter intended for direct consumption is not used for other purposes and having regard to the specific character of the operation, particularly in connection with the manufacture of concentrated butter, the parties concerned should be required to keep stock records. However, such checks should end at the stage immediately preceding taking-over by the retail sector. |
(25) |
So that butter can be purchased at a reduced price, in particular by non-profit-making institutions and organisations, detailed rules should be laid down for the grant of aid for butter purchased by such bodies. However, aid should be granted only for butter meeting certain quality criteria and offering a high standard of health protection. |
(26) |
For supervision reasons, the aid should be limited to butter purchased in the Member State of the beneficiary from an approved supplier in that Member State. To facilitate supervision, the marking to be shown on packs of butter qualifying for aid should be specified. |
(27) |
The Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

SECTION 3
REQUIREMENTS RELATING TO THE USE AND INCORPORATION OF INTERVENTION BUTTER, BUTTER, CONCENTRATED BUTTER AND CREAM
Article 6
1. The intervention butter, butter or concentrated butter shall be incorporated, exclusively and notwithstanding any intermediate products as referred to in Article 10, into final products in one of the following ways:
(a) |
after adding the tracers referred to in Article 8(1):
|
(b) |
by using, at the establishment where incorporation into the final products is effected, a minimum of five tonnes per month or 45 tonnes per 12-month period of butter-equivalent or the same quantities in intermediate products:
|
The cream shall be incorporated, directly and exclusively into final products referred to in Annex I, formula B, in one of the ways referred to in the first subparagraph of this paragraph.
2. Further processing of final products shall be permitted only if the products obtained fall within one of the CN codes referred to in Annex I.
Article 7
Where the intervention butter is to be processed into concentrated butter, fractionated or not, all the butter awarded to the tenderer shall be processed into concentrated butter meeting the requirements set out in Annex III and shall produce at least 100 kilograms of concentrated butter per 122,5 kilograms of intervention butter used.
Article 8
1. Where the incorporation procedure used is that provided for in Article 6(1)(a), the following shall be added, to the exclusion of any other products, in such a way that they are evenly distributed, according to the minimum quantities prescribed:
(a) |
if the intervention butter, butter or concentrated butter is to be incorporated into products corresponding to formula A in Annex I (hereinafter called formula A), the tracers listed in Annex IV; |
(b) |
if the intervention butter, butter or concentrated butter is to be incorporated into products corresponding to formula B in Annex I (hereinafter called formula B), the tracers listed in Annex V; |
(c) |
in the case of cream, the tracers listed in Annex VI. |
In the case of concentrated butter, the tracers referred to in points (a) and (b) of the first subparagraph shall be added during or immediately after manufacture, in the same establishment.
2. Where, for example because of uneven distribution or the incorporation of insufficient quantities, the content of each of the tracers referred to in Annexes IV and V and in point 1 of Annex VI is found to be more than 5 % but less than 30 % below the minimum quantities prescribed, then 1,5 % of the processing security referred to in Article 28 shall be forfeited or the aid shall be reduced by 1,5 % for each percentage point below the prescribed minimum quantities. If the content of each of those tracers is found to be equal or more than 30 % below the minimum quantities prescribed, then, in the case of intervention butter, the processing security referred to in Article 28 shall be forfeited and, in the case of products referred to in Article 5(1), the aid shall not be paid.
The first subparagraph shall not apply in the case of organoleptic tracers if the products referred to in points I(a) and II(a) of Annex IV, points I(a) and II(a) of Annex V and point 1(a) of Annex VI are added in such quantities that their flavour, colour or aroma can be perceived up to the stage of incorporation into final products or, where applicable, into intermediate products as referred to in Article 10.
For the granting of aid, where the content of the tracer triglyceride of enanthic acid referred to in points I(b) and II(b) of Annex IV and point 1(b) of Annex VI exceeds the quantities prescribed by more than 20 %, no aid shall be paid for the total quantity of this tracer. The content and quantity of the tracer shall be calculated on the basis of the arithmetic mean of the values found in the samples taken.
3. The competent body designated by the Member State shall ensure that the requirements as to composition and characteristics, in particular the degree of purity, of the products listed in Annexes IV, V and VI, have been complied with in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 213/2001 (12).
Article 9
1. Where the butter is manufactured in one establishment and then the tracers are added or the butter, with or without the addition of tracers, is incorporated at an intermediate stage into products other than final products in a different establishment, the butter shall be packaged prior to such operations in accordance with Article 5(1)(a). Where all these operations are carried out in the same establishment, prior packaging of the butter shall not be required.
2. If the manufacture of concentrated butter as referred to in Article 5(1)(b), with or without the addition of tracers, or the processing of intervention butter into concentrated butter in accordance with Article 7, or the addition of tracers to butter or cream, as the case may be, takes place in an establishment other than that where it is incorporated into final products or, where applicable, into intermediate products as referred to in Article 10, then the concentrated butter, intervention butter, butter or cream shall be put up in sealed packages, weighing not less than 10 kilograms net for concentrated butter or butter, without prejudice to any subpackaging, and not less than 25 kilograms net for cream.
Concentrated butter and cream may also be transported in tankers or containers. Before incorporation into final products, the concentrated butter may be repackaged in sealed packages as provided for in this Article at an establishment approved for that purpose in accordance with Article 13.
3. Packages referred to in paragraph 2 shall bear in clearly visible and legible characters a reference to this Regulation and the intended use (formula A or formula B), and a reference to the number of the tendering procedure (a code may be used), to be indicated on the original packaging, so that the competent body can verify compliance with the deadline for incorporation, and:
(a) |
for concentrated butter, one or more of the entries listed in Annex VII(1)(a), with the words ‘to which tracers have been added’ if the concentrated butter contains tracers; |
(b) |
for intervention butter and butter to which tracers have been added, one or more of the entries listed in Annex VII(1)(b); |
(c) |
for cream to which tracers have been added, one or more of the entries listed in Annex VII(1)(c). |
4. Milkfat produced beforehand in an establishment approved in accordance with Article 13 and intended for use in the manufacture of concentrated butter as referred to in point (b) of the first subparagraph of Article 5(1) shall be put up in sealed packaging weighing not less than 10 kilograms net bearing, in clearly visible and legible letters:
(a) |
a reference to the number of the establishment and the date of production, so that the competent body can verify compliance with the six-month time limit referred to in Article 5(2) and the requirements set out in Annex III; |
(b) |
one or more of the entries listed in Annex VII(1)(d). |
Provided that its origin can be identified, milkfat may also be stored and transported in tankers or containers.
Article 10
1. Intervention butter, butter and concentrated butter, with or without added tracers, may be incorporated at an intermediate stage into products other than final products and in an establishment other than that of final processing.
In such cases, the processing establishment and the intermediate products must be approved in accordance with Article 13.
Approval shall be granted on the basis of an application specifying in particular the composition and butterfat content of the products manufactured and showing that incorporation into such intermediate products is justified for the manufacture of the final products.
2. Where the intermediate products obtained are held by a resale establishment, that establishment shall undertake, under the terms of the contract of sale for those products:
(a) |
to keep accounts showing, for each delivery, the name(s) and address(es) of the establishment(s) of final processing or, failing this, the first consignees in the Member State and, where applicable, the first consignees in other Member States, together with the corresponding quantities sold; |
(b) |
to ensure that the conditions of Articles 11 and 39 are met. |
3. Without prejudice to any subpackaging, intermediate products shall be put up in sealed packages weighing not less than 10 kilograms net or shall be transported in tankers or containers. However, products of low density such as foamed products may be put up in sealed packaging weighing not less than five kilograms net without prejudice to any subpackaging.
Packages shall bear, in addition to the intended use (formula A or formula B) and, where applicable, the words ‘to which tracers have been added’, one or more of the entries listed in Annex VII(2) and, in the case of products referred to in Article 4(1)(b)(ii), reference to the number of the tendering procedure (a code may be used) so that the competent body can verify compliance with the deadline for incorporation.
Article 11
The products referred to in Article 5 and the intervention butter sold in accordance with Section 6 shall be processed and incorporated into final products in the Community within a period of four months following the month of the closing date for the submission of tenders in response to the individual invitation to tender, fixed in Article 16(3).

If no offers have been submitted, Member States communicate this to the Commission within the same time limit. However, for sales of butter from intervention this communication is only required if butter is available for sale in the Member State concerned.
Article 17
The intervention agency shall specify in the individual notice of invitation to tender provided for in Article 16(2), for the intervention butter stocks it holds:
(a) |
the location of the cold stores where the butter intended for sale is held; |
(b) |
the quantity of intervention butter for sale in each store. |
Article 18

The minimum selling price may vary according to the location of the quantities of butter offered for sale.
Where the intervention butter is purchased, or aid is applied for with a view to the manufacture of intermediate products referred to in Article 4(1)(b)(ii), the minimum selling price paid for the intervention butter and the maximum amount of aid granted for those intermediate products shall correspond respectively to the minimum selling price and the maximum amount of aid fixed as referred to in Article 26 for butter with a fat content of 82 % or more to which tracers have been added.
2. A decision may be taken in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 42(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 that no award shall be made in respect of an invitation to tender.
Article 26
1. Tenders shall be rejected if the price offered for the intervention butter is lower than the minimum price or if the amount of aid proposed exceeds the maximum amount of aid fixed, due regard being had to the intended use, the fat content of the butter or concentrated butter in question and the incorporation procedure.
2. Without prejudice to paragraph 1, successful tenderers shall be those offering the highest price.
The competent intervention agency shall sell intervention butter on the basis of the date on which it entered storage, starting with the oldest butter among the total available quantity or among the available quantity of sweet or other butter, and, where applicable, in the cold store(s) named by the operator.
3. If the quantity available in the store in question is not exhausted, contracts for the remaining quantity shall be awarded to the other tenderers according to the prices offered, starting with the highest price. Where the remaining quantity is one tonne or less, that quantity shall be offered to the successful tenderers on the same terms as quantities already awarded to them.
Where acceptance of a tender would lead to a contract being awarded for more butter than is available at the cold store in question, a contract shall be awarded to the tenderer concerned only for the quantity available. The intervention agency may designate other cold stores from which the quantity specified in the tender is to be made up. However, the tenderer may refuse such designation if the tender indicates a cold store in accordance with Article 22(2)(f).
Where, in respect of a single cold store, acceptance of two or more tenders offering the same prices for the same intended uses for the butter and the same method of incorporation would lead to contracts being awarded in excess of the quantity available, awards shall be made by dividing the quantity available in proportion to the quantities tendered for.

4. Rights and obligations arising in connection with the invitation to tender shall not be transferable.
Article 27
1. The tenderer shall lodge a tendering security for the relevant individual tendering procedure before expiry of the period set for the submission of tenders.
2. The tendering security shall be lodged in the Member State in which the tender is submitted.

In such cases, the intervention agency concerned shall inform the competent authority of the other Member State of the circumstances entailing release or forfeiture of the security.
3. The tendering security shall be EUR 100 per tonne.
4. The tendering security shall be released immediately if the tender is not accepted.
5. The primary requirements within the meaning of Article 20(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2220/85, compliance with which shall be ensured by the lodging of the tendering security, shall be maintenance of the tender after the closing date for the submission of tenders and, as the case may be:
(a) |
for intervention butter, the lodging of a processing security as referred to in Article 28 of this Regulation and payment of the amount referred to in Article 31(2); |
(b) |
for the products referred to in Article 5 of this Regulation:
|
Article 28
1. At the same time as the minimum selling price(s) or maximum amount(s) of aid is/are fixed and under the procedure referred to in Article 42(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999, the amount(s) of the processing security shall be fixed per 100 kilograms by reference either to the difference between the intervention price of butter and the minimum prices fixed or to the amounts of aid.
2. The purpose of the processing security shall be to ensure performance of the primary requirements within the meaning of Article 20(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2220/85 concerning either:
(a) |
in the case of intervention butter:
|
(b) |
in the case of the products referred to in Article 5 of this Regulation and where the incorporation procedure used is that provided for in Article 6(1)(a), incorporation into final products. |
The processing security shall be lodged in the Member State where the tender is submitted, in the case of aid, and in the Member State in which processing is to be commenced or carried out in the case of intervention butter.
3. The proof required for the purposes of releasing the processing security shall be produced for the competent agency designated by the Member State within 12 months of the expiry of the period laid down in Article 11.
4. Except in cases of force majeure, where the time limit for incorporation into final products fixed in Article 11 is exceeded by less than 60 days, EUR 6 per tonne of butter equivalent shall be forfeited from the processing security each day.
At the end of that 59-day period, the remaining amount shall be reduced by 15 % and hereafter by 2 % for each additional day.
5. Where the primary requirements referred to in paragraph 2(a) of this Article are not complied with within the time limits laid down in Article 11 because the intervention butter is found to be unfit for consumption, any processing securities shall nevertheless be released, with the agreement of the Commission, once appropriate action has been taken under the supervision of the authorities of the Member State concerned.
Article 29
1. For imperative and duly substantiated commercial reasons, a change in the intended use or incorporation method for the entire quantity of the tender referred to in Article 20 shall be authorised by the intervention agency, under its supervision and in compliance with this Regulation.
Where the incorporation procedure used is that provided for in Article 6(1)(a), such authorisation must be obtained before tracers are added.
Where the minimum selling price or the maximum level of aid referred to in Article 25(1), as the case may be, are identical for formula A and formula B, at the tenderer's request a change in the intended use between the two formulas for the entire quantity of the tender referred to in Article 20 may be authorised by the competent authority, under its supervision and in compliance with this Regulation.
2. If, for duly substantiated commercial reasons, the primary requirements referred to in Article 28(2)(a)(ii) or (b) are not complied with for products to be incorporated using the procedure provided for in Article 6(1)(a), the competent agency may authorise the tenderer, at the latter's request within the period laid down in Article 11, to rework those products under its supervision and in compliance with this Regulation, in the same establishment approved for adding tracers, provided there is no change from the intended use or the incorporation procedure mentioned in the tender.
In such cases, 15 % of the processing security referred to in Article 28 shall be forfeited or the aid shall be reduced by 15 %.
Article 30
In the event of failure to comply with a subordinate requirement, 15 % of the processing security referred to in Article 28 shall be forfeited or the aid shall be reduced by 15 %.
