Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Having regard to the opinion of the European

Whereas Articles 90 (1) and 257 (1) of the Act of 
Accession provide for a period during which transitional 
measures may be taken to facilitate the passage from the 
arrangements existing in Spain and in Portugal on 
accession to the arrangements resulting from the 
application of the common organization of the markets 
as defined in the Act, and in particular to deal with 
appreciable difficulties in the implementation of the new 
arrangements on the date laid down; whereas the date of 
expiry of that period, fixed at 31 December 1987 in the 
Act of Accession, was extended by Council Regulation (EEC) No 4007/87 of 22 December 1987 ('), to 31

Portugal;

particular Article 43 thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament, 
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee, 
Whereas, on account of the growing imbalance in the Community between supply and demand 
for cereals, a number of measures have been introduced to improve the situation; whereas the 
said measures should be reinforced by the introduction of arrangements designed to encourage 
the use of cereals for animal feed; whereas, however, to enable these arrangements to be 
reviewed in the light of experience gained, application should be limited initially to the 
1989/90 marketing year; 
Whereas for the purpose of introducing the abovementioned arrangements, an addition should 
be made to Article lib of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 on the common organ­
ization of the market in cereals ('), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2221/88 (2),

animal feed above a quantitative threshold to be determined.
