of 16 July 1984

amending Regulation (EEC) No 2194/81 laying down the general rules for the system of production aid for dried figs and dried grapes

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 516/77 of 14 March 1977 on the common organization of the market in products processed from fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 988/84 (2), and in particular the second paragraph of Article 3d,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas, following the accession of Greece, Article 3a (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 516/77 introduced a system of production aid for dried figs and dried grapes;

Whereas the general rules for this system were laid down by Regulation (EEC) No 2194/81 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3009/83 (4);

Whereas it is necessary for dried grapes and dried figs to be kept in storage for longer than the subsequent marketing year;

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2194/81 applies during the 1981/82, 1982/83 and 1983/84 marketing years; whereas, since the Council has adopted a new aid scheme to apply from the 1984/85 marketing year, provision should be made for the said Regulation to apply to products harvested during these three marketing years,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

2. The second paragraph of Article 15 is replaced by the following:

'It shall apply to products harvested druing the 1981/82, 1982/83 and 1983/84 marketing years.'
