Commission Regulation (EC) No 1482/2006of 6 October 2006opening standing invitations to tender for the resale on the Community market of common wheat and rye held by the intervention agencies of the Member States for processing into flour in the Community THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 of 29 September 2003 on the common organisation of the market in cerealsOJ L 270, 21.10.2003, p. 78. Regulation as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1154/2005 (OJ L 187, 19.7.2005, p. 11)., and in particular Article 6 and the second paragraph of Article 24 thereof, Whereas: (1)Under Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93 of 28 July 1993 laying down the procedure and conditions for the sale of cereals held by intervention agenciesOJ L 191, 31.7.1993, p. 76. Regulation as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 749/2005 (OJ L 126, 19.5.2005, p. 10)., cereals held by intervention agencies are to be sold by tendering procedure at a selling price which is not below the price recorded on the market at the place of storage or, failing that, on the nearest market, account being taken of transport costs, for an equivalent quality and for a representative quantity preventing market disturbance. (2)The Member States have intervention stocks of common wheat and rye. (3)Due to adverse weather conditions at the time of the 2006 harvest, the quantity of breadmaking cereals is insufficient to meet the internal demand of some Member States. Sales on the Community market may therefore be organised by tendering procedure with a view to processing common wheat and rye into flour. Each sale should be considered to be a separate invitation to tender. (4)To take account of the situation on the Community market, provision should be made for the Commission to manage this invitation to tender. In addition, provision must be made for an award coefficient for tenders offering the minimum selling price. (5)To enable checks on the particular destination of the stocks covered by these tendering procedures, provision should be made for specific monitoring of the delivery of the common wheat and rye and its processing into flour. To permit this monitoring, application of the procedures laid down by 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 interventionOJ L 301, 17.10.1992, p. 17. Regulation as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 770/96 (OJ L 104, 27.4.1996, p. 13). should be made compulsory. (6)To guarantee proper performance, tenderers should be required to lodge a security which, in view of the nature of the operations concerned, should be fixed by derogation from Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93, in particular as regards its level, which must be sufficient to guarantee the proper use of the products, and the conditions for its release, which must include proof of processing of the products into flour. (7)With a view to the sound management of the system, provision should be made for the electronic transmission of the information required by the Commission. It is important for the notification by the intervention agencies to the Commission to maintain the anonymity of the tenderers. (8)The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals, HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
