amending Regulation (EEC) No 2245/88 introducing a guarantee threshold system for peaches 
in syrup 
(89/C 82/51) 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European 
Economic Community, 
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and 
Portugal, 
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 426/86 of 
24 February 1986 on the common organization of the 
market in products processed from fruit and vegetables (1), 
as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No ... (2), and in 
particular Article 2(3) thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 426/86 introduced a system 
of production aid for certain processed fruit and vegetable 
products; whereas if a major imbalance between produc­
tion and market outlets as mentioned in the said 
Article 2(3) arises appropriate measures may be taken; 
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 991/84 (3), as last 
amended by Regulation (EEC) No 485/86 (4), has already 
restricted the granting of the production aid where 
Williams pears preserved in syrup are concerned; whereas 
a Community guarantee threshold arrangement for pears 
in syrup of the varieties Williams and Rocha should be 
introduced of the same type as introduced for peaches in 
syrup by Council Regulation (EEC) No 2245/88 (5); 
whereas the threshold is to be determined on the basis of 
the quantities of Williams pears for which the production 
aid is granted and of the production volume for the Rocha 
variety in Portugal; whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2245/88 
should in consequence be supplemented and Regulation 
(EEC) No 991/84 repealed,

For the Council 
Proposal for a 
COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No ... 
of... 
amending Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 on the common organization of the market in wine 
(89/C 82/52) 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
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, 
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social 
Committee, 
Whereas the reduction in wine production anticipated from 
the structural measures covering areas planted to wine 
grapes should not be prevented from being realized on 
account of replanting under rights arising from the 
grubbing of areas planted to vines that fall into another 
category as far as normal utilization of the grapes produced 
is concerned; whereas it is necessary to stipulate therefore 
that areas grubbed may be replanted only with vines of the 
same category; 
Whereas in order to prevent the enrichment of wine 
suitable for yielding table wine in order to produce table 
wine, which at present is the only wine that may be distilled 
under the provisions on compulsory distillation, the 
possibility of delivering such wine for distillation, which 
already exists where preventive distillation is concerned, 
should be extended to compulsory distillation, Article 1 
Council Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 (*) is amended as 
follows: 
1. The following subparagraph is added to Article 7(3). 
'When a replanting right is exercised only those vine 
varieties may be used that in the classification of vine 
varieties are ranked in the same category, as far as 
normal utilization of the grapes obtained is concerned, 
as the vines in the area grubbing of which has given rise 
to the planting right.' 
2. The first subparagraph of Article 39(1) shall read: 
'If, in respect of a given wine year, the market in table 
wine and wine suitable for yielding table wine is in a 
state of serious imbalance compulsory distillation of 
table wine and of wine suitable for yielding table wine 
shall be decided on.' 
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 September 1989.
