COUNCIL DIRECTIVE of 1 August 1974 amending, for the first time, Council Directive No 73/241/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to cocoa and chocolate products intended for human consumption (74/411/EEC)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 100 thereof;

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission;

Whereas the first sentence of the first paragraph of Article 15 of Council Directive No 73/241/EEC (1) of 24 July 1973 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to cocoa and chocolate products intended for human consumption, provides that Member States shall, if necessary, within a period of one year following notification amend their laws in accordance with the provision of that Directive;

Whereas it appears that the present wording of certain provisions of the Directive concerned may give rise to conflicting interpretation and that they should therefore be worded more accurately;

Whereas the Commission has stated that it is about to submit a proposal to clarify the Directive but that it will not be possible to take action before the expiry of the abovementioned period;

Whereas Member States should therefore be enabled, by the extension of that period, to take account, when giving effect to the Directive in their national laws, of any changes which may have been made;

Whereas, however, there is no need to alter the period of two years laid down in the second sentence of the first paragraph of Article 15 of the said Directive,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

Article 1

The first paragraph of Article 15 of Directive No 73/241/EEC shall be replaced by the following text with effect from 1 August 1974: "By 1 January 1975 Member States shall, if necessary, amend their laws in accordance with the provisions of this Directive and shall forthwith inform the Commission thereof. The laws thus amended shall apply to products offered for sale in the Member States two years after the notification of this Directive."

Article 2

This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

Done at Brussels, 1 August 1974.

COUNCIL DIRECTIVE of 26 March 1980 amending Directive 72/159/EEC on the modernization of farms (80/370/EEC)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),

Whereas under Article 14 (2) (a) of Council Directive 72/159/EEC of 17 April 1972 on the modernization of farms (2), as last amended by Directive 78/1017/EEC (3), Member States may, during a period of five years from the time when the said Directive takes effect, grant temporary aid to farmers who are not capable of attaining the level of earned income laid down under Article 4 of that Directive and who are not yet eligible for the annuities provided for in Article 2 (1) of Council Directive 72/160/EEC of 17 April 1972 concerning measures to encourage the cessation of farming and the reallocation of utilized agricultural area for the purposes of structural improvement (4);

Whereas such period expired on 17 April 1977;

Whereas, pending the re-examination of Directive 72/159/EEC provided for in Article 16 thereof, the period of application of Article 14 (2) (a) to the measures in force in the Member States at the end of this five-year period was extended until 31 December 1979;

Whereas, since such re-examination is still in progress and a decision on the agricultural structure policy proposals submitted by the Commission to the Council on 20 March 1979 providing inter alia for the amendment and prolongation of Article 14 (2) (a) of Directive 72/159/EEC has not yet been taken, it would seem advisable to authorize the Member States to continue, until such re-examination has been completed or until 31 December 1980, whichever is the earlier, to apply those measures in force at the end of the five-year period that fall within the scope of Article 14 (2) (a) of the Directive,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

Article 1

The period laid down in Article 14 (2) (a) of Directive 72/159/EEC shall be extended, as regards the measures provided for under that Article in force in the Member States on 15 March 1977, until the re-examination provided for in Article 16 of this Directive has been completed or until 31 December 1980, whichever is the earlier.

Article 2

This Directive shall take effect from 1 January 1980.

Article 3

This Directive is addressed to the Member States.
