                                      Amendment,
               submitted pursuant to Article 149(3) of the EEC Treaty,
                                         to the
                 proposal for a Council Regulation (EEC) laying down
                     special measures to encourage the processing
                               of certain citrus fruits
                     (doc. COM(93) 387 final of 1 September 1993)
The following is added to the sixth recital:
"whereas a transitional period, during which aid for the processing of satsumas
 is also paid to individual citrus fruit producers, is necessary to enable the
sector to adjust to these provisions;".
 In Article 5:
(1) The existing text becomes paragraph 1.
(2) The following paragraph is added:
     "2.   For the 1993/94 marketing year, however, the individual citrus fruit
           producers referred to in Article 19c of Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 may
           receive aid equal to two-thirds of that paid to producers'
           organizations provided that all other relevant provisions are complied
           with."
Article 6 is replaced by the following:
                                       "Article 6
The scheme referred to in Article 5 shall be based on contracts concluded between
citrus fruit producers or producers * oraanizations and processors on the terms
referred to in Article 2."
The following new Article is inserted after Article 11:
                                      "Article 12
Before the end of the 1995/96 marketing year, the Commission will, if necessary,
send a report to the Council on the application of this scheme with, where
appropriate, suitable proposals."
The existing Articles 12 and 13 become Articles 13 and 14 respectively.
