derogating from Regulation (EEC) No 1726/70 on the procedure for granting the premium for leaf tobacco as regards the dates for the conclusion and registration of cultivation contracts

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 727/70 of 21 April 1970 on the common organization of the market in raw tobacco (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1461/82 (2), and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 3 (3) thereof,

Whereas such contracts must specify the particulars relating to the norm prices fixed for the crop in question and the level of the corresponding premium;

By way of derogation from the first subparagraph of Article 2b (3) and the first indent of Article 2b (6) (a) of Regulation (EEC) No 1726/70, the deadlines set for the conclusion of cultivation contracts as well as for the registration of these contracts and the cultivation declarations shall, in the case of contracts and declarations taking effect in 1983, be deferred to 30 June 1983 and 31 July 1983 respectively.
