Whereas it has recently been detected that certain cereal products falling within CN code 1104 in Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and the Common Customs Tariff (3), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1641/94 (4), for example clipped oats and lightly heat-treated cereals, cannot be properly classified by the competent authorities; whereas to remedy that situation the subdivisions of CN code 1104 should be amended accordingly;

Whereas in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 of 17 December 1987, establishing an agricultural product nomenclature for export refunds (5), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1622/94 (6), the classification of maize (corn) flour falling within product codes 1102 20 10 100, 1102 20 10 300 and 1102 20 90 100 is made on the basis of fat content, referred to dry matter; whereas for the corresponding CN codes for these products namely ex 1102 20 10 and ex 1102 20 90 the classification of maize (corn) flour is made on the basis of fat content by weight; whereas for the sake of consistency these product codes in Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 should be amended to be in agreement with the Combined Nomenclature;

Whereas footnote 3, requiring a minimum content of starch in a cereal-based compound feeding stuff to be eligible for a refund, foreseen for CN code ex 2309 10 was accidentally omitted for CN code ex 2309 90; whereas this footnote should be included; whereas in footnote 2, the reference to starch coming from cereal products is potentially confusing to the competent authorities and should therefore be deleted;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,

The part of Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 relating to CN code 1104 shall be replaced by the Annex to this Regulation.

The cereals content in products under subheadings 1904 10 10 and 1904 10 90 of the Combined Nomenclature is considered to be equal to the weight of this final products.

No refund is paid for cereals where the origin of the starch cannot be clearly established by analysis.'
