COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 3411/93 of 13 December 1993 amending Regulation (EEC) No 1725/79 on the rules for granting aid to skimmed milk processed into compound feedingstuffs and skimmed-milk powder intended for feed for calves

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European 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 2071/92 (2), and in particular Article 10 (3) thereof,

Whereas, pursuant to Article 4 (1) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1725/79 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 495/93 (4), the granting of aid for skimmed-milk powder processed into compound feedingstuffs is conditional upon the requirement that the latter contain not less than 50 kg of powder per 100 kg of the finished product;

Whereas paragraph 1a of that Article lays down, however, that the said minimum quantity shall be fixed at 35 kilograms for the period 1 February to 31 December 1993; whereas the trend on the market in skimmed-milk powder justifies maintaining this derogation until 31 March 1994;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

In Article 4 (1a) of Regulation (EEC) No 1725/79, the words 'between 1 February and 31 December 1993' are replaced by 'between 1 February 1993 and 31 March 1994'.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 13 December 1993.

For the Commission
