19.1.2006 Official Journal of the European Union L 14/5 COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 80/2006 of 18 January 2006 opening a standing invitation to tender for the resale on the Community market of rye held by the German intervention agency 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 cereals (1), and in particular Article 6 thereof, Whereas: (1)  Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93 of 28 July 1993 laying down the procedure and conditions for the sale of cereals held by intervention agencies (?) provides in particular that cereals held by intervention agencies are to be sold by tendering procedure at prices preventing market disturbance. (2)  However, as rye no longer benefits from intervention measures since the 2004/05 marketing year, there is no further need when reselling rye stocks either to provide for a particular destination requirement in order to prevent the risk of their being presented a second time for intervention or, should no intervention price be applicable on the day in question, to require a selling price linked to the intervention price in accordance with Article 5(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93. (3) Germany has intervention stocks of rye, which should be used up. 4 In view of the strong demand on the internal market and the situation on that market, the stocks of rye held by the German intervention agency should be made available to the market.

(5)  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. (6)  In view of the significant financial interests at stake, the amount of the security required from the tenderers should be set at a sufficiently high level, with a consequent derogation from Article 13(4) of Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93. (7) It is also important for the German intervention agency’s notification to the Commission to maintain the anonymity of the tenderers. (8)  With a view to modernising management, the infor- mation required by the Commission should be sent by electronic mail.
