WHEREAS THE MAXIMUM QUANTITY OF TABLE WINE WHICH MAY BE DISTILLED FOR EACH PRODUCER SHOULD BE LIMITED IN ORDER TO LIMIT THE OVERALL COST OF THE OPERATION ;
WHEREAS , IN ORDER TO ENSURE APPROPRIATE SUPERVISION OF DISTILLATION OPERATIONS , DISTILLERS SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO A SYSTEM OF APPROVAL ;
WHEREAS PROVISION SHOULD BE MADE FOR PRODUCERS TO CONCLUDE DELIVERY CONTRACTS WITH DISTILLERS SUBJECT TO APPROVAL BY THE INTERVENTION AGENCY , IN ORDER TO FACILITATE MONITORING OF THE PROGRESS OF OPERATIONS AND OF THE OBSERVANCE OF THE OBLIGATIONS OF BOTH PARTIES ; WHEREAS THIS SYSTEM WOULD HAVE THE ADDED ADVANTAGE OF MAKING IT EASIER TO MONITOR THE QUANTITATIVE EFFECTS OF DISTILLATION ON THE MARKET AND , WHERE NECESSARY , TO LIMIT THE VOLUME OF WINES WHICH MAY BE DISTILLED ;
