    THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

    Having regard to the Treaty of Accession of Bulgaria and Romania,

    Having regard to the Act of Accession of Bulgaria and Romania, and in particular the first paragraph of Article 41 thereof,

    Transitional measures should be adopted to allow producers and processors in Bulgaria and Romania to benefit from the provisions of Council Regulation (EC) No 2201/96 of 28 October 1996 on the common organisation of the markets in processed fruit and vegetable products (1).

    (2)

    Under Commission Regulation (EC) No 1535/2003 of 29 August 2003 laying down detailed rules for applying Council Regulation (EC) No 2201/96 as regards the aid scheme for products processed from fruit and vegetables (2), contracts for tomatoes must be signed, by 15 February, by processors approved by the competent authorities and producer organisations granted recognition or preliminary recognition.

Otherwise, and particularly in the case of tomatoes, the parties concerned would be unable to benefit from the aid scheme provided for in Regulation (EC) No 2201/96 during the marketing year in progress.
