of the remaining expenditure on the establishment of a register of olive cultivation 
(88/C 139/18) 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

21 January 1975 on the establishment of a register of olive 
cultivation in the Member States producing olive oil (!), as

particular Article 3(4) thereof, be available are not sufficient to cover the cost of 
establishing the register of olive cultivation in the 
abovementioned Member States and in Spain and Por­
tugal; whereas the period during which deductions from 
the aid are to be made should accordingly be extended; 
whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1416/82 should therefore be 
amended and the percentage of the deduction on the aid 
should be adjusted to the level considered suitable for Spain 
and Portugal to take account of the costs of establishing the 
register in those Member States, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 154/75 provides that part of 
the production aid granted to olive-growers is to be 
allocated for a certain period to finance the work needed to 
establish the register of olive cultivation; Article 1 
Whereas, should the amount resulting from those deduc­
tions not cover the expenditure referred to above, Article 
3(4) of the abovementioned Regulation provides for the 
possibility of making further deductions to cover the 
remaining expenditure; whereas Council Regulation (EEC) 
No 1416/82 (3) provides to that end for a deduction to be 
made in France, Italy and Greece for a period up to the 
1989/1990 marketing year inclusive; whereas it is already 
clear that the sums resulting from the deductions which will

olishes the monthly increases for olive oil; whereas Articles
