COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 431/90

of 20 February 1990

on the sale by the procedure laid down in Regulation (EEC) No 2539/84 of beef held by certain intervention agencies and intended for importation into the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, amending Regulation (EEC) No 569/88 and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 2993/89

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in beef and veal (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 571/89 (2), and in particular Article 7 (3) thereof,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2539/84 of 5 September 1984 laying down detailed rules for certain sales of frozen beef held by the intervention agencies (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1809/87 (4), has provided for the possibility of applying a two-stage procedure when selling beef from intervention stocks;

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2824/85 of 9 October 1985 laying down detailed rules for the sale of frozen boned beef from intervention stocks for export, either in the same state or after cutting and/or repacking (5) has provided for repackaging under certain conditions;

Whereas certain intervention agencies hold large stocks of intervention meat; whereas an extension of the period of storage for the meat bought in should be avoided on account of the ensuing high costs; whereas in view of the special supply needs of the russian population, part of that meat should be put up for sale in accordance with Regulations (EEC) No 2539/84 and (EEC) No 2824/85 in order to be imported into the Soviet Union;

Whereas, in view of certain special features of the sale and in particular for the purposes of control, a minimum quantity should be set per offer or purchase application;

Whereas quarters from intervention stocks may in certain cases have been handled a number of times; whereas, in order to help with the presentation and marketing of such meat, its repackaging should be authorized, subject to the observance of precise conditions;

Whereas it is necessary to lay down a time limit for export of the said meat; whereas this time limit should be fixed by taking into account Article 5 (b) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2377/80 of 4 September 1980 on special detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences in the beef and veal sector (6), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 252/90 (7);

Whereas in order to ensure that beef sold is exported to the intended destination the lodging of security, as specified in of Article 5 (a) of Regulation (EEC) No 2539/84, should be required;

Whereas it is appropriate to specify that, in view of the prices which have been fixed in the context of this sale in order to permit the disposal of certain cuts, exports of such cuts should not be eligible for the refunds periodically fixed in the beef and veal sector;

Whereas products held by intervention agencies and intended for export are subject to the provisions of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 569/88 (8), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 243/90 (9); whereas the Annex to the said Regulation setting out the entries to be made should be expanded;

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 243/90 should be repealed;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
