1. The Portuguese intervention agency, hereinafter called the INGA, shall, under the conditions laid down in Regulation (EEC) No 1836/82, issue a standing invitation to tender for the resale of 60 000 tonnes of barley held by the Spanish intervention agency, hereinafter called the Senpa, with a view to disposal to drought-stricken stockfarmers in the Portuguese regions of Alentejo, Beira interior e Tras-os-Montes, the eastern half of Entre Douro e Minho, Beira Litoral and Ribatejo Oeste and the northern half of the Algarve.
2. Without prejudice to the provisions of Regulation (EEC) No 1836/82, the following special rules shall apply to this invitation to tender:
- the cereals shall be disposed of by invitation to tender at the silos of the storehouses in the border regions of the provinces of Badajoz or Salamanca,
- only stockfarmers in the Portuguese regions listed in paragraph 1 or their authorized agents may submit tenders,
- tenders shall refer to the actual quantity of the consignment for which the tender is being made and submitted to the INGA, which shall forward them to the Senpa,
- the security referred to in the second indent of Article 13 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 1836/82 shall not apply,
- the tender selected must be at least 95 % of the intervention price referred to in Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75, applicable on the closing date for submission of tenders; however, for tenders submitted from 1 June, the intervention price to be taken into account shall be that for May,
- a security equal to the intervention price must be lodged with INGA by the successful tenderer to guarantee payment for the awarded cereals; the security shall be released on payment; Article 17 (1) and the second indent of Article 17 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 1836/82 shall apply mutatis mutandis,
- the closing date for submission of tenders shall be 18 June 1993,
- INGA shall guarantee to Senpa payment for the cereals awarded and removed. Payment shall be made not later than the tenth day following the deadline for payment laid down in Article 2.
Notwithstanding the first paragraph of Article 16 of Regulation (EEC) No 1836/82, payment for the awarded cereals shall be made by the successful tenderer to the Portuguese intervention agency not later than the end of the sixth month following the month in which the contract was awarded. The latter must pay the Spanish intervention agency the equivalent of all the amounts received in pesetas, on the basis of the exchange rate calculated using the relationship between the value of the ecu in both of the currencies concerned, as published in the Official Journal of the European Communities on the day following the invitation to tender.
The quantities of barley awarded shall be made available to successful tenderers by Senpa without delay. Senpa shall be responsible for the transport of the cereals from the place of storage to the place of disposal. This shall be approved in accordance with Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 3492/90. The European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF) shall reimburse transport costs to Senpa up to ECU 20 per tonne plus, where necessary, the costs of additional entries and removals. The INGA shall reimburse Senpa for any additional transport costs exceeding the abovementioned limit, on presentation of transport invoices.
1. The Portuguese authorities shall take the necessary steps to guarantee the performance of the operation and inform the Commission of them.
2. Senpa shall show the operation in the accounts provided for by Regulation (EEC) No 3492/90.
3. Successful tenderers must be prepared to undergo all the checks which INGA may wish to carry out in order to assure itself that the tenderer is actually a stockfarmer or an authorized representative.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
