COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 1768/82

of 1 July 1982

amending Regulation (EEC) No 2729/81 with regard to import licences for milk and milk products and amending Regulation (EEC) No 210/69

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by (EEC) No 1183/82 (2), and in particular Articles 13 (3), 14 (7) and 28 thereof,

Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 2915/79 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1463/82 (4), amended the Common Customs Tariff annexed to Regulation (EEC) No 950/68 (5); whereas, as a result of this change, import licences for certain cheeses from certain non-member countries no longer show the information required for monitoring the quantities imported which qualify for a special levy; whereas it must consequently be made compulsory to show on applications for import licences for these cheeses and on the licences themselves the information required to enable the flow of imports to be monitored by amending Regulation (EEC) No 2729/81 (6), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 45/82 (7);

Whereas provision should also be made for the Commission to be provided with details of import licences; whereas an addition should therefore be made to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 210/69 (8), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 772/82 (9);

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
