COMMISSION 
Proposal for a Council Regulation amending Regulation No 136/66/EEC on the 
establishment of a common organization of the market in oils and fats 
(Submitted by the Commission to the Council on 10 March 1982) 
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 Par­
liament, 
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and 
Social Committee, 
Whereas the marketing of Community production of 
olive oil is meeting with difficulties in view of the 
relationship emerging on the market between the 
price of olive oil and that of competing types of oil; 
whereas these difficulties are likely to worsen in 
future in an enlarged Community; 
"Whereas, in order to resolve these difficulties, it 
should be stated that the representative market price 
for olive oil should be fixed in such a way as to 
ensure a price relationship which is more favourable 
to olive oil; whereas it is therefore appropriate to 
amend Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC ('), as 
last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2989/81 (2), 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
Article 1 
Article 7 of Regulation No 136/66/EEC is hereby 
replaced by the following: Article 7 
The representative market price shall be fixed at a 
level permitting normal marketing of olive oil 
produced. 
This price shall be fixed at a level such that, 
taking into account 
— the expected price trend during the marketing 
year for the most representative competing 
vegetable oil in the main areas of 
consumption, and 
— the impact on olive oil prices of the monthly 
increases referred to in Article 10, 
the ratio between the representative market price 
and that of the competing vegetable oil at the 
wholesale stage does not exceed 2:1.' 
Article 2 
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third 
day following its publication in the Official Journal of 
the European Communities. 
It shall apply from 1 November following the date of 
accession of Spain to the Community. 
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and 
directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION 
Proposal for a Council Directive on the conditions under which non-resident carriers may 
operate certain national transport services within a Member State 
(Submitted by the Commission to the Council on 16 December 1982) 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN 
COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the 
European Economic Community, and in particular 
Article 75 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, pursuant to Article 75 (1) (b) of the Treaty 
the adoption of a common transport policy involves 
laying down the conditions under which non-resident 
carriers may operate transport services within a 
Member State; 
Whereas, within the general framework of the 
transport economy, it is important to make rational 
use of vehicles; 
Whereas, a reduction in the large number of unladen 
journeys in road haulage operations between Member 
States is essential in order to improve the productivity 
of the undertakings concerned; 
Whereas unladen journeys mainly occur on the return 
trip of vehicles to their country of registration or to 
the country where the international transport began, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE: 
Article 1 
Member States shall take the necessary measures to 
ensure that carriers of goods by road for hire or 
reward established in other Member States may carry 
goods between two points situated on their territory, 
hereinafter referred to as 'national carriage', in 
accordance with the conditions laid down by this 
Directive. Article 2 
The conditions for national carriage shall be as 
follows: 
— it shall follow the carriage of goods between two 
Member States which is performed by virtue of an 
authorization or without an authorization where 
the transport is liberalized; 
— it shall be carried out in the course of a return 
journey to the Member State in which the vehicle 
is registered or where the original carriage began; 
— not more than two national carriage operations 
may be performed in the course of the return 
journey; 
— the carrier shall comply with the relevant 
provisions in force in the Member State 
concerned, in particular any provisions relating to 
the formation of transport rates. 
Article 3 
A carrier may not perform a national carriage 
operation by virtue of this Directive which he would 
not be authorized to perform in the Member State 
where he is established, but shall not be subject to any 
quantitative or qualitative restrictions in force in the 
Member State where the national carriage operation 
is performed. 
Article 4 
Member States may require documentary proof that 
the national carriage operation follows carriage 
between two Member States. 
Article 5 
Member States shall, after consulting the 
Commission, take the measures necessary to comply 
with this Directive not later than 31 May 1984.

certain Member States which are separated by the 
territory of one or more third countries or by an area 
of sea, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE: 
Article 1

Whereas experience has shown that the additional 
quantities of butter consumed as a result of the sub­
sidy have been fairly small and that the cost of dis­
posal has therefore been very high; whereas it is 
expected that the intervention price for butter will 
fall (appreciably) as from the beginning of the 
1984/85 milk year, and that this will have an effect 
on the price to the consumer; whereas further imple­
mentation of the measure provided for in Regu­
lation (EEC) No 1269/79 therefore no longer 
appears to be justified (on economic grounds),

Whereas, for the purposes of facilitating the adop­
tion of a common air transport policy, Member 
States should in the meantime avoid taking mea­
sures which would lead to further divergence of 
national policies and which in their direct or indi­
rect effects would make the situation of airlines of 
other Member States less favourable, Article 2 
Member States shall take measures to ensure that-
arrangements at airports, including the system or 
systems for the allocation of slots, are not less 
favourable in their direct or indirect effects on air 
carriers of other Member States than on their own 
air carriers.

(84/C 179/10) 
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, 
Having regard to the opinion of the European 
Parliament, 
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and 
Social Committee, 
Whereas Second Council Directive 82/399/EEC of 
10 June 1982 on summer time arrangements (*) 
introduced a common date and time for the 
beginning of summer time in the Community for 
1983, 1984 and 1985; 
Whereas with regard to the end of summer time, the 
abovementioned Directive lays down for those years 
different dates for Member States that do not belong 
to the zero time zone and for the two Member States 
that do belong to the zero time zone; 
Whereas almost all the European non-member 
countries have adopted the same dates as the Member 
States which do not belong to the zero time zone, as 
indicated in the Directive, as regards both the 
beginning and the end of summer time; 
Whereas Article 5 of Directive 82/399/EEC states 
that the Council, acting on a proposal from the 
Commission, shall adopt by 1 January 1985 the 
arrangements to apply from 1986 onwards; 
Whereas the continuation of arrangements in force is 
considered to be desirable and appropriate, in 
particular in the interests of facilitating transport and 
telecommunications between Member States and 
reducing the costs thereof; 
Whereas, with a view to complete harmonization, 
common dates and times should be fixed for the 
beginning and the end of summer time applicable for 
all Member States; Whereas it is appropriate to re-examine this measure 
from time to time and therefore for this purpose it 
would be as well to lay down a period of application 
for the Directive for the years 1986, 1987 and 1988; 
Whereas, for geographical reasons, common summer 
time arrangements should not apply to the French 
overseas departments, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

'summer time' means the period of the year during 
which the time is advanced by 60 minutes in relation 
to the time for the rest of the year. 
Article 2 
Member States shall take the measures necessary to 
ensure that in each Member State summer time begins 
at 1 a.m. Greenwich Mean Time: 
— in 1986: on 23 March, 
— in 1987: on 29 March, 
— in 1988: on 27 March. 
Article 3 
Member States shall take the measures necessary to 
ensure that summer time ends at 1 a.m. Greenwich
