The creation of national measures corresponding to the
new rules on hemp imports requires major national
legislative, administrative and practical changes. As a
result, some Member States may not be able to guar-
antee application of the new rules on the envisaged date,
1 November 2001. The Member States should be

granted sufficient extra time to ensure that the rules
enter into force at the same time and in the same way,
so a new date of 1 May 2002 should be set for applica-
tion of the new rules. As a consequence, the control
measures
