(2) The granting of private storage aid for pigmeat should therefore be ended and a closing date for the submission of applications should be set.

(3) In order to avoid speculation the Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication and the closing date should be the day following the entry into force.

(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,
