It is appropriate to complete or to adapt these provisions.

**(3)** It is appropriate that, in addition to the amounts of aid granted for a specific storage period, amounts to be added or reduced in the event of that period being extended or curtailed should also be fixed.

**(4)** Foreseeable market conditions make it necessary to provide for flexible storage periods of between three and seven months.

**(5)** It is appropriate in order to ensure genuine tenders, to determine the minimum quantity which may be stored. It is appropriate to determine the minimum quantity to be destocked.

**(6)** A security should be established to guarantee compliance with the obligations linked to private storage.

**(7)** The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sheep and Goats,
