Council Regulation (EC) No 2529/2001 on the common organisation of the market in sheepmeat

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2529/2001 of 19

(1)

(2)

Article 2(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2550/
2001 (2), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 623/
2002 (3), indicates that, with the exception of the United
Kingdom, Member States have to set a single period for
the submission of applications for the sheep and goat
premiums.

France has set the month of January for the application
period. Due to administrative difficulties in the imple-
mentation of this period in the French overseas terri-
tories it is necessary to allow France to set a different
period for these territories from that set for mainland
France. Therefore, provision should be made to derogate
from Article 2(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2550/2001.

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

Article 1

Notwithstanding Article 2(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2550/
2001, France may set for the year 2003 a different period in
respect of the French overseas territories from that set for the
rest of that Member State within a period ending on 30 April
2003.

Article 2

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

It shall apply from 1 January 2003.

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