THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1442/88 of 24 May 1988 on the granting, for the 1988/89 to 1995/96 wine years, of permanent abandonment premiums in respect of wine-growing areas (1) as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1327/90 (2), and in particular Article 12 (1) thereof,
Whereas, pursuant to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2729/88 of 31 August 1988 laying down detailed rules for the application of Regulation (EEC) No 1442/88 on the granting, for the 1988/89 to 1995/96 wine years, of permanent abandonment premiums in respect of wine-growing areas (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 678/89 (4), Greece lodged a request with supporting documents for exclusion from the scope of the measures provided for in Regulation (EEC) No 1442/88 from the 1990/91 wine year;
