Whereas it is therefore necessary to amend Regulation (EC) No 1488/96 to determine such a procedure;

Whereas the Treaty has not provided, for the adoption of this Regulation, powers other than those of Article 235,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Article 16 of Regulation (EC) No 1488/96 shall be replaced by the following:

'Article 16

When an essential element for the continuation of support measures to a Mediterranean partner is missing, the Council may, acting by a qualified majority on a proposal from the Commission, decide upon appropriate measures.`

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
