THE COURT OF JUSTICE OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES.

Having regard to Article 81 (2) of the Rules of Procedure,

Whereas Annex II to the Rules of Procedure, as adopted on 19 June 1991, must therefore be amended,

DECIDES:

The third indent of Article 1 of Annex II to the Rules of Procedure shall be replaced by the following:

'- for the European territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, for the Kingdom of Spain, for Ireland, for the Hellenic Republic, for the Italian Republic, for the Republic of Austria, for the Portuguese Republic (with the exception of the Azores and Madeira), for the Republic of Finland, for the Kingdom of Sweden and for the United Kingdom: 10 days.`

Article 2

This Decision shall be published in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

It shall enter into force on the date of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

Done at Luxembourg on 11 March 1997.
