On 29 December 1981 , the Council adopted Regulation ( EEC ) No . 3796 / 81 on
the common organisation of the market in fishery products , which provides         ,!
for the Regulation to apply from 1 June 1982 or from any earlier date laid
down by the Council acting by qualified majority on a proposal from the
Commi ssion .
Before the Regulation can be correctly applied , however , the Council has to
adopt general conditions and rules for the application of a number of its
Articles concerning , inter alia ,
         - common marketing standards for some new products ( Article 2 )
         - aid to producers' organisations ( Article 6 )
         - the extension of discipline to non-members of producers' orga­
           nisations   ( Article 7 )
         - the granting of financial compensation for withdrawals from
            the market   ( Article 13 )
         - the granting of carry-over premiums , including a' special premium
            for sardines and anchovies in the Mediterranean ( Article 14 ).
The Commission has recently made proposals regarding the most urgent of the
above-mentioned measures ( see document C0M(82 ) 207 final of 19.4 .      1982 ) ;
and further proposals are currently being prepared . It appears most unlikely ,
however , that the Council will be in a position to adopt Regulations on all
these matters before the deadline of 1 June 1982 . Moreover , Regulations of
the Commission will also be needed and the fishing industry will require time
to adapt itself to the new regime .
In these circumstances it is necessary to amend the date of application of the
Regulation . Since there are a number of practical advantages in shifting to
the new regime at the beginning of a year , the Commission proposes that ,
subject to the qualification mentioned in the following paragraph , the
Regulation should apply from 1 January 1983 .
It is desirable for Article 20 of the Regulation to come into force on the
date originally foreseen because of the link between that provision and
Council Regulation No . 3798 / 81 of 29 December 1981 concerning Community tariff
quotas for certain herrings .. This Article can be applied without the adoption
of further implementing legislation , and it is proposed that it should
apply from 1 June 1982 .

                  COUNCIL REGULATION ( EEC )
        amending              Regulation ( EEC ) No . 3796 / 81
                              on the common organization of the
                          market in fishery products .
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community ,
and in particular Article 43 thereof .
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parli ament ^ * ,
Whereas Article 37 of Council Regulation ( EEC ) No . 3796/ 81 ^ provides that
that Regulation shall apply from 1 June 1982 or from any earlier date laid                ι
down by the Council acting by qualified majority on a proposal from the
Commi ssion ;
Whereas the Regulation also provides for the adoption by the Council of a
series of Regulations laying down general rules for the application of a
number of its provisions ; whereas the Commission has already made proposals
to this end ;
                      t
Whereas , however , in view of the number and complexity of these Regulations ,
it is unlikely to be possible for the Council to adopt them before 1 June 1982
or for the fishing industry to adapt itself in time to the new arrangements ;
Whereas it is therefore necessary to postpone the date of .application of Regulation
 No . 3796 / 81 ;
Whereas 1 January 1983          is    a   suitable             revised application date ;
                                                     •                        »
Whereas it is appropriate , however , that ; Article 20 of
                  the   ; Regulation should be applicable from 1 June 1982 as originally
foreseen ,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION :
