However, in the case of concentrated butter as referred to in Article 5 (1) and (2), Member States may permit processing into intermediate products in an establishment other than that in which final processing into products referred to in Article 4 is carried out, subject to the following conditions:  (A) In the same Member State:  Where intermediate processing takes place in the same Member State as final processing, the following shall apply:  (a) the establishment in which intermediate processing is carried out and the establishment or establishments in which final processing is carried out must be approved, on their joint application, by the competent authority of the Member State concerned.  Without prejudice to additional requirements laid down by the Member State concerned for the purpose of exercising an effective check on the end-use of the concentrated butter, an establishment may be approved as an establishment for intermediate processing or as an establishment for final processing only if it undertakes to keep permanent stock records setting out:  - in the case of establishments carrying out intermediate processing, the quantities of concentrated butter employed and the quantities, nature and butterfat content of the intermediate product obtained, together with the name and address of the establishment in which final processing is to be carried out;  - in the case of establishments carrying out final processing, the quantities, nature and butterfat content of the intermediate product employed or final processing, the quantities and butterfat content of the products referred to in Article 4 obtained by such processing and the name and address of the establishment supplying the intermediate product;  (b) the joint application for approval and the approval itself issued to each of the establishments concerned shall specify in particular:  - the names and addresses of those establishments;  - the intermediate product which will be used subsequently by the establishment or establishments carrying out final processing.  The competent authority shall withdraw approval where it detects a serious breach of the provisions of this Regulation and/or additional national provisions;  (c) the competent authority shall subject the establishments approved in accordance with (a) and (b) to the inspection procedure laid down in Article 21. Such inspection shall involve frequent, thorough and unannounced checks on the commercial documents and specific stock records referred to at (a), both of the establishment of intermediate processing and of the establishments of final processing;  (d) however, in the case of establishments of final processing using monthly a quantity not exceeding 200 kg of concentrated butter in the form of intermediate products:  - approval as referred to at (a) and (b) shall not be required;  - the first subparagraph of Article 22 (3) shall apply;  (e) as regards transport of the intermediate product, the provisions of Article 6 shall apply, the words "concentrated butter" on the packaging being replaced by "intermediate product".  (B) In another Member State:  Where intermediate processing takes place in a Member State other than that in which final processing is carried out, the following additional conditions shall apply:  (f) the intermediate product shall contain no fat other than butterfat and, where appropriate, cocoa butterfat;  (g) concentrated butter shall be processed into an intermediate product referred to in Annex III and such processing shall take place in the Member State in which the concentrated butter was manufactured;  (h) the intermediate product shall be processed into finished products by a single establishment of final processing approved by the competent authority of the Member State where the final processing takes place;  (i) the requirement specified at (a) and (b) that a joint application be submitted for approval shall be replaced by a requirement that the establishment of intermediate processing submit an application for approval to the competent authority of the Member State concerned. The application shall be accompanied by a certificate issued by the competent authority of the Member State where the final processing takes place, stating that the establishment of final processing has been approved in that Member State;  (j) the provision laid down at (d) shall not apply;  (k) the tenderer shall indicate in the tender referred to in Article 14 the Member State and the establishment in which the intermediate product is to be processed into a finished product referred to in Article 4; (l) the competent authority of the Member State in which the tender is submitted shall transmit without delay to the competent authority of the Member State in which final processing is to take place the details referred to at (k);  (m) the Member State shall notify the Commission of the competent authorities responsible for the approval of processing undertakings.  3. Further processing of the products specified in Article 4 shall be permitted only if the products obtained fall within one of the tariff headings referred to in that Article and if no product falling within any other heading is produced at an intermediate stage of such processing.  4. For the purposes of this Article, the Belgo-Luxembourg Economic Union shall be considered as a single Member State.'  4. Annex I to this Regulation is added as Annex III to Regulation (EEC) No 262/79.  Article 2  Annex II to Regulation (EEC) No 1932/81 is hereby replaced by Annex II to this Regulation.  Article 3  In Section II of the Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 1687/86, point 13 (A) (b) is hereby replaced by the text in Annex III to this Regulation.
