THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1079/77 of 17 May 1977 on a co-responsibility levy and on measures for expanding the markets in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1209/83 (2), and in particular Article 4 thereof,

Whereas Articles 1 (3) and 5 (2) and (3) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 592/83 of 14 March 1983 continuing the measures referred to in Regulation (EEC) No 507/82 in respect of measures to promote sales outside the Community of milk products of Community origin (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2863/83 (4), lay down the time limits for implementing the measures concerned, for drawing up the list of proposals selected for financing and for concluding contracts in respect of the proposals which have been selected; whereas those time limits cannot be complied with and should therefore be deferred;
