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 Regulation (EEC) No 1079/77 0), as last 
amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2234/88 (2),

points in respect of producers whose deliveries during 
the fourth period of application of the additional levy 
arrangements referred to in Article 5c of Regulation 
(EEC) No 804/68 did not exceed 60 000 kilograms. 
Any producer who commenced or recommenced 
deliveries after the beginning of the fourth 12-month 
period before a date specified each year by the 
Member State concerned and whose deliveries as 
recorded or, where appropriate, estimated, for the 
first year of production, do not exceed 60 000 
kilograms shall also qualify for the 0,5 point 
reduction.' 
Article 2 
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its 
publication in the Official Journal of the European 
Communities. 
It shall apply with effect from 1 July 1988.
