REGULATION (EEC) No 1285/70 OF THE COUNCIL of 29 June 1970 laying down a special measure for the disposal of skimmed milk powder bought in by intervention agencies

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community;

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 (1) of 27 June 1968 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2622/69 (2), and in particular Article 7 (4) thereof;

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission;

Whereas the second subparagraph of Article 7 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 provides that special measures may be taken for the disposal of skimmed milk powder bought in by intervention agencies;

Whereas skimmed milk powder production has exceeded market outlets for human consumption and for calf feed ; whereas exports to third countries are possible only to a limited extent and with high refunds ; whereas, consequently, skimmed milk powder which has been the subject of intervention measures should be allowed to be used as feed for swine and poultry;

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Skimmed milk powder bought in by intervention agencies pursuant to Article 7 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 which cannot be marketed on normal terms during a milk year may be sold at a reduced price if it is intended as feed for swine and poultry.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Luxembourg, 29 June 1970.
