Commission Regulation (EC) No 2011/2001

of 12 October 2001

on a tendering procedure for the subsidy on consignments of husked long grain rice to Réunion

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 of 22 December 1995 on the common organisation of the market in rice(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1667/2000(2), and in particular Article 10(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2692/89(3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1453/1999(4), lays down detailed rules for exports of rice to Réunion.

(2) Examination of the supply situation on the island of Réunion shows a shortage of rice. In view of the availability of rice on the Community market, Réunion should be allowed to obtain supplies on that market. Because of the special situation of Réunion, it is appropriate to limit the quantities to be delivered and, therefore, to fix the amount of the subsidy by tendering procedure.

(3) Pursuant to Article 14 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2808/98 of 22 December 1998 laying down detailed rules for the application of the agrimonetary system for the euro in agriculture(5), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2452/2000(6), amounts quoted in tenders submitted in response to invitations to tender organised under an instrument forming part of the common agricultural policy must be expressed in euro. Article 5(1) of that Regulation provides that in such cases the operative event for the agricultural exchange rate is the final day for the submission of tenders. Paragraphs 3 and 4 of that Article specify the operative events applicable to advances and securities.

(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
