COM(2001) 410 final (cid:151) 2001/0159(CNS)

(Submitted by the Commission on 18 July 2001)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community, and in particular Article 37 thereof,

Article 3(3) of Regulation (EEC) No 2204/90 is hereby replaced
by the following:

Article 1

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament,

Whereas:

(1) Council Regulation (EEC) No 2204/90 (1) makes the use of
casein and caseinates in the manufacture of cheese subject
to prior authorisation and Article 3(3) of that Regulation
provides for a Community penalty to apply in the event of
unauthorised use which refers in particular to the value of
skimmed milk resulting from the intervention price for
skimmed-milk powder.

(cid:145)3. Without prejudice to the penalties laid down, or to
be laid down, by the Member State concerned, a sum equal
to the difference between the value of skimmed milk
resulting from the market price for skimmed-milk powder
on the one hand and the market price for casein and
caseinates, plus 10 %, on the other hand shall be due for
quantities of casein and caseinates used without author-
isation.

Those values shall be ascertained in accordance with the
procedure laid down in Article 42 of Council Regulation
(EC) No 1255/1999 (*).

___________
(*) OJ L 160, 26.6.1999, p. 48.(cid:146)

Article 2

(2) Since the aim of that penalty is to cancel out the economic
advantage resulting from unauthorised use, the calculation
of the penalty should be based on the market price for
skimmed-milk powder, which more faithfully reflects the
real cost of skimmed milk as a raw material in the manu-
facture of cheese,

This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh 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.

(1)

(2)

The conditions governing the taking-over of paddy rice
by the intervention agencies are laid down in Commis-
sion Regulation (EC) No 708/98 (3), as last amended by

Regulation provides that delivery must take place by the
end of the second month following receipt of the offer
and in any case not later than 31 August of the current
marketing year.

During the 2000/01 marketing year, the intervention
agencies encountered difficulties in setting up a satisfac-
tory system for the storage, inspection and reception of
the goods. As a result of those difficulties, the accep-
tance of offers submitted and the taking-over of deliv-
eries have fallen behind schedule. Those difficulties

(3)

(4)

justify an extension of the period for delivery to the
intervention agency for the 2000/01 marketing year.

In view of the situation facing the intervention agencies,
this Regulation must enter into force immediately.

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in
accordance with the opinion of
the Management
Committee for Cereals,

Article 1

Notwithstanding Article 6(1) of Regulation (EC) No 708/98,
