THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European 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 (EC) No 3611/93 (2), and in particular Article 7 (3) thereof,

Whereas certain intervention agencies hold substantial stocks of beef bought into intervention; whereas an extension of the storage period for that beef should be avoided on account of the ensuing high costs;

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1912/92 of 10 July 1992 laying down detailed implementing rules for the specific measures for supplying the Canary Islands with products from the beef and veal sector (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 577/94 (4), lays down the forecast supply balance for frozen meat of bovine animals for the period 1 July 1993 to 30 June 1994; whereas, in the light of traditional trade patterns, it is appropriate to release intervention beef for the purpose of supplying the Canary Islands during that period;

Whereas Article 4 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1695/92 of 30 June 1992 laying down common detailed rules for implementation of the specific arrangements for the supply of certain agricultural products to the Canary Islands (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2596/93 (6), provides for the use of aid certificates delivered by the competent Spanish authorities for supplies from the Community; whereas the potential purchaser should be obliged to submit an aid certificate to the intervention agency at the same time as the application to purchase from intervention; whereas, in order to improve the operation of the abovementioned arrangements, certain derogations from Regulation (EEC) No 1912/92 should be provided for, in particular, with regard to the payment of aid and the security for aid certificates; whereas the support arrangements for the supply of the Canary Islands from intervention stocks provided for in Article 3 (2) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1601/92 (7), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1974/93 (8), should be simplified by including the aid in the sale prices set in this Regulation;

Whereas for the purpose of purchase and control procedures, it is appropriate to apply certain provisions of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2173/79 of 4 October 1979 on detailed rules of application for the disposal of beef bought in by intervention agencies and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 216/69 (9), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1759/93 (10), and Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3002/92 of 16 October 1992 laying down common detailed rules for verifying the use and/or destination of products from intervention (11), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1938/93 (12);

Whereas it is necessary to provide for the lodging of a security to guarantee that the beef arrives at the intended destination;

Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 384/94 (13) 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,
