COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3487/83
of 8 December 1983
fixing the export refunds on cereals and on wheat or rye flour, groats and meal
these quantities were fixed in Regulation No 162/
67/EEC (4), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No
1607/71 0 ;
Whereas the world market situation or the specific
requirements of certain markets may make it necessary
to vary the refund for certain products according to
destination ;
Whereas the refund must be fixed once a month ;
whereas it may be altered in the intervening period ;
Whereas, if the refund system is to operate normally,
refunds should be calculated on the following basis :
— in the case of currencies which are maintained in
relation to each other at any given moment within
a band of 2,25 % , a rate of exchange based on
their central rate,
— for other currencies, an exchange rate based on the
arithmetic mean of the spot market rates of each of
these currencies recorded for a given period in
relation to the Community currencies referred to
in the previous indent ;
Whereas it follows from applying the detailed rules set
out above to the present situation on the market in
cereals , and in particular to quotations or prices for
these products within the Community and on the
world market, that the refunds should be as set out in
the Annex hereto ;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation
are in accordance with the opinion of the Management
Committee for Cereals,
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 organi
zation of the market in cereals ('), as last amended by
Regulation (EEC) No 1 451 /82 (2), and in particular the
fourth subparagraph of Article 16 (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Monetary
Committee,
Whereas Article 16 of Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75
provides that the difference between quotations or
prices on the world market for the products listed in
Article 1 of that Regulation and prices for those
products in the Community may be covered by an
export refund ;
Whereas Article 2 of Council Regulation (EEC) No
2746/75 of 29 October 1975 laying down general rules
for granting export refunds on cereals and criteria for
fixing the amount of such refunds (3), provides that
when refunds are being fixed, account must be taken
of the existing situation and the future trend with
regard to prices and availabilities of cereals on the
Community market on the one hand, and prices for
cereals and cereal products on the world market on
the other ; whereas the same Article provides that it is
also important to ensure equilibrium and the natural
development of prices and trade on cereal markets
and, furthermore, to take into account the economic
aspect of the proposed exports and the need to avoid
disturbances on the Community market ;
Whereas Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 2746/75
defines the specific criteria to be taken into account
when the refund on cereals is being calculated ;
Whereas these specific criteria are defined, as far as
wheat and rye flour, groats and meal are concerned, in
Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 2746/75 ; whereas
furthermore , when the refund on these products is
being calculated, account must be taken of the quanti
ties of cereals required for their manufacture ; whereas
