COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1614/98

of 24 July 1998

introducing transitional measures relating to the aid scheme for hemp for the
1998/99 marketing year

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1308/70
of 29 June 1970 on the common organisation of the
market in fibre flax and hemp (1), as last amended by the
Act of Accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden and by
Regulation (EC) No 3290/94 (2), and in particular Article
12 thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 619/71 of
22 March 1971 laying down general rules for granting aid
for flax and hemp (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC)
No 1420/98 (4), and in particular Article 6a thereof,

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 619/71 stipulates that, as
conditions for the grant of aid for hemp, a contract must
be concluded between the grower and primary processor
except in certain specific cases, there must be an under-
taking to process and the primary processors must be
approved;

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 619/71 stipulates that
transitional measures can be adopted if strictly necessary
to facilitate the implementation of the provisions intro-
duced by Regulation (EC) No 1420/98; whereas in view of
the time needed to implement the said provisions and to

enable operators to adapt to the new system, it will not be
possible to apply the conditions referred to in the first
and second subparagraphs of Article 3(1) of Regulation
(EEC) No 619/71 in the 1998/99 marketing year; whereas,
as a result, the one condition that the aid be paid only to
the grower should be imposed as a transitional measure
for that marketing year;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are
in accordance with the opinion of
the Management
Committee for Flax and Hemp,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The first and second subparagraphs of Article 3(1) of
Regulation (EEC) No 619/71 shall not apply to the aid
scheme for hemp in the 1998/99 marketing year.
However, the aid shall be granted only to the grower.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day
following its publication in the Official Journal of the
European Communities.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member
States.
