of 28 April 1987

amending Regulation (EEC) No 1341/86 as regards the date of transfer of butter to the Italian intervention agency

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 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 231/87 (2), and in particular Article 12 (2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas Article 1 (2) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1341/86 of 6 May 1986 on the transfer to the Italian intervention agency of butter held by the intervention agencies of other Member States (3) provides for the transfer of 20 000 tonnes of butter to the Italian intervention agency before 1 April 1987; whereas, because of the difficulties which have arisen during the adoption of the methods of application of the transfer, the Italian intervention agency is unable to take over the butter within the period specified; whereas the date for transfer should therefore be postponed,
