COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 2844/84

of 9 October 1984

amending Regulation (EEC) No 2042/75 with regard to the amount of the security for export licences for common wheat in respect of which the refund is fixed in advance

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1018/84 (2), and in particular Article 12 (2) thereof,

Whereas under Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2042/75 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2814/84 (4), the amount of the security for export licences in respect of which the export refund is fixed in advance is 12,09 ECU per tonne;

Whereas that amount is inadequate, in the light of the fluctuations in the price of common wheat on the world market, changes in the value of currencies and the period of validity of export licences; whereas the said security should, for export licences, be raised to 24 ECU;

Whereas 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
