Proposal for a regulation
Recital 16
(16) This Regulation should provide for the possibility of disposal of products bought in public intervention. Such measures should be taken in a way that avoids market disturbances and that, ensures equal access to goods and equal treatment of purchasers and enables produce to be made available for the scheme for food distribution to the most deprived in the Union.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 17
(17) In order to ensure market transparency, the power to adopt certain acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty should be delegated to the Commission in respect of laying down the conditions under which it may decide to grant private storage aid in order to achieve the aim of balancing the market and stabilising the market prices, and taking into account the market situation. The rabbit meat sector does not have the option of establishing private storage aid. Given that its problems are similar to those experienced by the sectors that are already covered by this scheme, this option should be expanded in order to adjust supply in the rabbit meat sector.

Member States shall define the criteria for setting the amounts of the payment referred to in point c) which may vary depending on the final intended product of the vineyards and the remaining lifetime of the rights being transferred. 2. Where planting rights granted from a reserve are used, Member States shall ensure that: a) the location, the varieties and the cultivation techniques used guarantee that the subsequent production is adapted to market demand; b) the yields concerned are typical of the average in the region, in particular where planting rights originating in non- irrigated areas are used in irrigated areas. 3. Planting rights granted from a reserve which are not used before the end of the second wine year after the one in which they were granted shall be forfeited and re-allocated to the reserve. 4. Planting rights in a reserve which are not disbursed before the end of the fifth wine year following their allocation to the reserve shall be extinguished. 5.

Article 113 a (new)
Article 113a Contractual Relations 1. If a Member State decides that deliveries of a product by a farmer to a processor must be covered by a written contract between the parties, the contract shall fulfil the conditions laid down in paragraph 2. In the case described in the first paragraph, the Member State concerned shall also decide that if the delivery of the product is made through one or more collectors, each stage of the delivery must be covered by that contract between the parties. To this end, a 'collector' means an undertaking which transports a product from a farmer or another collector to a processor or another collector, provided that the ownership of the product is transferred in each case. 2. The contract shall: a) be concluded in advance of the delivery; b) be made in writing; and c) include, in particular, the following elements: i) the price payable for the delivery, which shall: – be static and be set out in the contract, and/or – vary only according to factors which are set out in the contract, in particular the development of the market situation based on market indicators, the volume delivered and the quality or composition of the product delivered; ii) the volume which may and/or shall be delivered and the timing of deliveries, and (iii) the duration of the contract, which may include an indefinite duration with termination clauses. 3. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 1, a contract shall not be required where the product is delivered by a farmer to a processor where the processor is a cooperative of which the farmer is a member if its statutes contain provisions having similar effects as those set out in points (a), (b) and (c) of paragraph 2. 4. All elements of contracts for the delivery of a product concluded by farmers, collectors or processors, including those elements referred to in paragraph 2(c), shall be freely negotiated between the parties. 5. In order to guarantee a uniform application of this Article, the Commission may, by means of implementing acts, adopt necessary measures. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 162(2).

Article 113b Contractual negotiations 1. Contracts for the delivery of a product by a farmer to a processor or a collector within the meaning of the second subparagraph of Article 100(a)(1) may be negotiated by a producer organisation which is recognised under Article 106, on behalf of its farmer members for part or all of their joint production. 2. The negotiation by the producer organisation may take place: a) whether or not there is a transfer of ownership of the product by the farmers to the producer organisation; b) whether or not the price negotiated is the same as regards the joint production of some or all of the farmer members; c) provided that the total volume of the product covered by such negotiations by a particular producer organisation does not exceed: i) 3.5 % of total Union production, and ii) 33 % of the total national production of any particular Member State covered by such negotiations by that producer organisation, and (iii) 33 % of the total combined national production of all the Member States covered by such negotiations by that producer organisation, d) provided that the farmers concerned are not members of any other producer organisation which also negotiates such contracts on their behalf; e) provided that the producer organisation notifies the competent authorities of the Member State or Member States in which it operates. 3. For the purposes of this Article, references to producer organisations shall also cover associations of such producer organisations. Taking into account the need to ensure that these associations are appropriately monitored, the Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 160 concerning the conditions for recognition of such associations. 4. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 2(c)(ii) and (iii), even where the threshold of 33 % is not exceeded, the competition authority referred to in the second paragraph may decide in an individual case that the negotiation by the producer organisation may not take place if it considers that this is necessary in order to prevent competition being excluded or in order to avoid serious prejudice to SME processors of the product in question in its territory. The decision referred to in the first subparagraph of this paragraph shall be taken by the Commission, by way of an implementing act, adopted in accordance with the advisory procedure referred to in Article 14 of Regulation (EC) No 1/2003 for negotiations covering the production of more than one Member State. In other cases it shall be taken by the national competition authority of the Member State the production of which is covered by the negotiations. The decisions referred to in the first and second subparagraphs of this paragraph shall not apply earlier than the date of their notification to the undertakings concerned. 5. For the purposes of this Article: a) a 'national competition authority' shall be the authority referred to in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1/2003; b) a 'SME' shall mean a micro, small or medium-sized enterprise within the meaning of Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC.
