derogating from Regulation (EEC) No 1432/88 laying down detailed rules for applying the co-responsibility levy in the cereals sector

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2860/89 (2), and in particular Article 4b (5) thereof,

Whereas, pursuant to the second subparagraph of Article 3 (2) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1432/88 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2712/89 (4), Member States may provide that, after the definitive additional levy has been fixed, reimbursement of the provisional amounts collected in excess be made directly by the operators who have received the said levy; whereas, under the said provision, such reimbursement must take place within one month after the definitive levy has been fixed;

Whereas, in certain Member States, recourse to this option requires the institution of legislative procedures which cannot be completed in time for the operators in question to make the reimbursement within the time limit laid down;

Whereas, in order to facilitate the application in those Member States of the reimbursement system in question, which is advantageous to producers, provision should be made to extend the abovementioned time limit for the present marketing year;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
