amending Regulation (EC) No 923/2005 on the transfer and sale on the Portuguese market of 80 000 tonnes of common wheat, 80 000 tonnes of maize and 40 000 tonnes of barley held by the Hungarian intervention agency

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 of 29 September 2003 on the common organisation of the market in cereals (1), and in particular Article 6 thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
On account of weather conditions in Portugal during the 2004/05 marketing year which led to severe drought, the Commission adopted Regulation (EC) No 923/2005 (2) authorising the transfer and sale on the Portuguese market of certain quantities of cereals held by the Hungarian intervention agency.
(2)
Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 923/2005 provides that the transport of the products to Portugal and their disposal for use as animal feed must take place before 31 December 2005.
(3)
Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 923/2005 reserves the sale of cereals exclusively for cattle, sheep and goat farmers’ associations or cooperatives and processing plants that have concluded cooperation contracts with those associations or cooperatives.
(4)
Because of administrative delays in arranging the transport contract, the Portuguese authorities have requested the extension of the deadline for the transfer, sale on the Portuguese market and disposal of the products to 30 April 2006. They have also requested that sales may be extended to all the sectors concerned by the drought which affected the Portuguese agricultural economy.
(5)
In view of the situation on the Portuguese market, and in particular of the prolonged effects of the drought on the Portuguese agricultural economy and on the conditions for the supply of cereals to economic operators on satisfactory terms, a favourable response should be given to the request from the Portuguese authorities by authorising the supply of cereals to all the economic operators concerned.
(6)
Regulation (EC) No 923/2005 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(7)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,

Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

It should therefore be extended temporarily.
(3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,

Article 1
By derogation from Article 10(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1445/95, licences for which applications are lodged during the periods specified below shall be issued on the corresponding dates provided that no specific action as indicated in paragraph 2 of that Article has been taken prior to those dates:

COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 2988/90
of 16 October 1990
amending Regulation (EEC) No 1350/72 as regards the definition of areas under hops
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1696/71 of 26 July 1971 on the common organization of the market in hops (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2780/90 (2), and in particular Article 13 (4) thereof,
Whereas Article 1 (3) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1350/72 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2590/85 (4), defines at a Community level the concept of 'area planted' to ensure uniform calculation of the areas qualifying for production aid; whereas experience has shown that this definition no longer complies with the requirements of expedient hop cultivation;
Whereas, due to the growing necessity for prudent pesticide application growers should be able to spray the outer rows of a hop garden from outside in order to avoid other cultures being affected; whereas, it would therefore be appropriate to allow for an additional gauge at each side of the hop garden; whereas cultivation would become easier if the areas at either end of the rows required for operating machinery were extended from five metres to eight metres in length since the machinery used today has become longer and needs more space to be turned;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Hops,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Article 1 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 1350/72 is hereby amended as follows:
1. Point (a) is replaced by the following:
'(a) Without prejudice to the provision of (b) the area bounded by the line of the outer anchorage strings of the hop poles; in the case where this line carries hop plants, then at either side of the area an additional working gauge is added, whose width is corresponding with the average width of a working gauge inside the planted area; the additional working gauge must not form part of a highway;'
2. In point (b), 'more than five metres in length' is replaced by 'more than eight metres in length.'
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply from the 1991 harvest.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 16 October 1990.
