COMMISSION DECISION
of 8 November 1989
authorizing the Kingdom of Spain to permit temporarily the marketing of durum wheat seed not satisfying the requirements of Council Directive 66/402/EEC

Having regard to the request submitted by the Kingdom of Spain,
Whereas in Spain the production of seed of durum wheat satisfying the requirements of Directive 660/402/EEC has been insufficient in 1989 and therefore is not adequate to meet that country's needs;
Whereas it is not possible to cover this demand satisfactorily with seed from other Member States, or from third countries, satisfying all the requirements laid down in the said Directive;
Whereas the Kingdom of Spain should therefore be authorized to permit for a period expiring on 31 March 1990, the marketing of seed of the abovementioned species subject to less stringent requirements;
Whereas, moreover, other Member States, which are able to supply Spain with such seed not satisfying the requirements of the Directive should be authorized to permit the marketing of such seed provided it is intended for Spain;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
