THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),

Whereas, pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1117/78 of 22 May 1978 on the common organization of the market in dried fodder (2), a guide price must be set for certain dried fodder products; whereas this price must be set for a standard quality;

Whereas it has proved necessary to reconsider all the problems relating to the fixing of prices for the 1993/94 marketing year, which will involve delay in the fixing of these prices; whereas it is therefore necessary to fix the guide price for dried fodder products provisionally for the period 1 to 31 May 1993,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
