In order to avoid this situation and to ensure that the tendering process covered by Regulation (EC) No 990/2006 works effectively, the security for rye should be increased.\n(3)\nRegulation (EC) No 990/2006 should be amended accordingly.\n(4)\nThe measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
