of 8 August 2001

amending Regulation (EC) No 1232/2001 opening crisis distillation as provided for in Article 30 of
Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 for table wine in Italy

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 of 17
May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in
wine (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2826/2000 (2),
and in particular Articles 30 and 33 thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Commission Regulation (EC) No 1232/2001 (3) opens
the crisis distillation provided for in Article 30 of Regu-
lation (EC) No 1493/1999 for table wines in Italy. The
quantity for which this distillation was opened was fixed
at 1 200 000 hl. Article 4 of the Regulation stipulates
that the Member State is to take the necessary adminis-
trative steps to approve the contracts entered into and
indicate the rate of reduction applied if the total quantity
covered by the contracts exceeds the total volume of
1 200 000 hl. A calculating error was made when fixing
rate which increased the overall quantity to
this
1 211 500 hl when the rate was applied. In order to
take account of this situation, the overall quantity for
which crisis distillation is opened in Italy should be
increased to 1 211 500 hl.

(2)

(3)

As approval of the final contracts must take place no
later than 27 July 2001, this amendment must apply
before that date.

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 1232/2001 is replaced by the
following:

‘Article 1

Crisis distillation as provided for in Article 30 of Regulation
(EC) No 1493/1999 is hereby opened for a maximum of
1 211 500 hectolitres of table wine in Italy.’

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publica-
tion in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

It shall apply from 26 July 2001.

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