COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 658/82

of 22 March 1982

amending Regulation (EEC) No 685/69 on detailed rules of application for intervention on the market in butter and cream

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by the Act of Accession of Greece, and in particular Article 6 (7) thereof,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 685/69 (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1602/81 (3), lays down in Articles 6 (2) and 24 (1) the factors concerning storage costs, particularly fixed costs and cold storage costs; whereas the latter amounts should be adjusted to take account of their movement;

Whereas the first paragraph of Article 29 of Regulation (EEC) No 685/69 provides that under certain conditions the amount of the aid may be adjusted in the light of the change in the buying-in price for butter, so as to offset a profit or loss arising from the change in question; whereas, for the same reasons, provision should be made for butter which is manufactured prior to the date on which the change in the buying-in price takes effect and which is the subject of a storage contract concluded on or after that date;

Whereas for the reasons given above it is appropriate to amend Regulation (EEC) No 685/69;

Whereas the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
