Opinion of the Economic and Social Committee on the 'Proposal for a Council Regulation (EC) amending Regulation (EEC) No 1442/88 on the granting, for the 1988/1989 to 1998/1999 wine years, of permanent abandonment premiums in respect of winegrowing areas'

Opinion of the Economic and Social Committee on the ‘Proposal for a Council Regulation (EC)
amending Regulation (EEC) No 1442/88 on the granting, for the 1988/1989 to 1998/1999 wine
years, of permanent abandonment premiums in respect of winegrowing areas’

(1999/C 138/13)

On 24 March 1999 the Council decided to consult the Economic and Social Committee, under Articles
43 and 198 of the Treaty establishing the European Community, on the above-mentioned proposal.

The Economic and Social Committee decided to appoint Mr Sabin as rapporteur-general for its opinion.

At its 362nd plenary session (meeting of 24 March 1999) the Economic and Social Committee adopted
the following opinion with 57 votes in favour and one abstention.

1.
The purpose of the Commission proposal is to extend
the deadline for the submission of applications for the
Community grubbing-up premium provided for in Article 4(1)
of EC Regulation No 1442/88 from 31 December 1998 to
31 March 1999.

There are a number of reasons why winegrowers are

2.
counting on this proposal:

— French national aid was granted for the permanent aban-
donment of vineyards in the Charentes region by decree of
14 December 1998. For technical reasons, it takes time for
winegrowers to decide to grub up vines and do the
grubbing-up. The extension of the deadline for the sub-
mission of applications is all the more necessary because
eligibility for French aid is conditional on the granting of
the Community premium.

— grubbing-up normally takes place between November
(when harvesting ends) and April (when plant growth
starts again).

Since the budgetary cost of this proposal is low and the
3.
cognac sector is in a crisis, the Economic and Social Committee
endorses the Commission proposal.

of the Economic and Social Committee
