Whereas the level of the co-responsibility levy applicable during the 1980/81 milk year is fixed at 2 % of the target price for milk valid for that milk year;

Whereas it is necessary, therefore, to replace the figures appearing in the first subparagraph of Article 2 (1) and in Article 5 (2) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1822/77 of 5 August 1977 laying down detailed rules for the collection of the co-responsibility levy introduced in respect of milk and milk products (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1362/79 (4);

Whereas, in accordance with Article 1 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 1079/77, a reduced rate of the levy shall henceforth be collected from producers in certain areas within an annual limit of 60 000 kilograms per producer; whereas the amounts of the abovementioned reduced levy and the detailed rules governing the collection thereof must be specified,

Whereas, in accordance with the second subparagraph of Article 3 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 1079/77, Member States are obliged to take all measures necessary for establishing the geographical location of the holdings covered by the reduced rate of the levy; whereas a special provision should therefore be introduced enabing such measures to be implemented;
