amending Regulation (EEC) No 584/75 laying down detailed rules for the application of the system of tendering for export refunds on rice

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1431/76 of 21 June 1976 laying down general rules for granting export refunds for rice and criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds (1), and in particular Article 4 (2) thereof,

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
