To this end, the system of sale of skimmed-milk powder from intervention stocks at a fixed price should be replaced by a system of sale by invitation to tender which allows the selling price to be fixed in accordance with market conditions.\n(4)\nExperience has shown that the Member States must notify the Commission more rapidly if it is to be in a position to follow the evolution in the quantities of skimmed-milk powder offered for public intervention and, where appropriate, to suspend intervention buying-in once the quantities offered reach the level fixed by Article 7(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999.\n(5)\nRegulation (EC) No 214/2001 should therefore be amended.\n(6)\nThe measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
