                                Proposal for a
                    COUNCIL REGULATION (ESC )
              amending for "the fourth "time Regulation (EEC ) ITO 1163/76

COM( 77 ) 126 final
 ---pagebreak---                           EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
         The purpose of this proposal for a regulation is to derogate from the
provisions in the first indent of Article 3 ( 2 ) (b ) of Council Regulation
  (EEC ) No II63/76 , of 17 May 1976 , on granting of a conversion premium in the
wine sector ,, where it is stipulated that the grant of the premium is subject
to an undertaking "by the applicant to grub up or have grubbed up befor
1 May 1977 the vines in the' areas for which the premium has been requested
for the 1976/77 wine year .
 . " . " '                    /                 • • •• • •
        Commission Regulation (EEC ) No 2034/76 provides that the competent autho­
rities of the Member States have the obligation to carry out on-the-spot checks
to ascertain that the conditions for granting the premium have been satisfied ,
and to fix the amount to be granted.
        Recent unfavourable weather in one Member State having delayed the normal
progress of these checks , the deadline of 1 May 1977 cannot be observed despite
the undertaking given by those concerned before 16 January 1976 to carry out
grubbing by 1 May 1977 *
        Therefore it is proposed that the grubbing of vines can take place until
15 June 1977 .                                                -

                            I
    in particular Article 43 thereof ,
   Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
   Having regard to the Opinion of the European Parliament ( l ),

   Having regard to the Opinion of the Economic and Sooial Committee ( 2 ),
   Whereas Council Regulation (EEC ) No 1163/76 of 17 May 1976 ( 3 ) » as last amended
   "by Regulation (EEC ) No 530/77 (4 )» provided for the granting of a conversion pre­
   mium in the wine sector } whereas under the first indent of Article 3 ( 2 )("b ) thereof
    the applicant must undertake-to grub up or have grubbed up by 1 May 1977 the vines
   on the areas for which the premium has been requested for the 1976/77 wine year ;
   whereas Commission Regulation (EEC ) No 2034/76 of 17 August 1976 laying down de­
   tailed rules and conditions for the granting of the conversion premium in the wine
   sector ( 5 ) requires the competent authorities of the Member States to verify cer­
   tain particulars before grubbing, in order to check that the conditions for granting
  jthe premium have been met and to fix the amount to be granted ; whereas these checks
  whichrequire an on-the-spot visit have been delayed by recent unfavourable wear-
  ther conditions { whereas grubbing should therefore be allowed until 15 June 1977 J
