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 ,
                                                             1
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament ,
Whereas , pursuant to Article 22 of the Act of Accession of Greece certain
adjustments required by that Accession must be made to Council Regulation ( EEC )
No 357 / 79 of 5 February 1979 on statistical surveys of areas under vines , as
last amended by Regulation ( EEC) No 1992 /80^, in accordance with the guidelines
given in Annex II to that Act ;                                       ■
Whereas Article 1(1 ) of Regulation ( EEC ) No 357 / 79 provides that the Member
States concerned shall carry out every ten years basic surveys on the area under
vines and annually intermediate surveys ;       whereas as a result of difficulties
which could not have been foreseen it was not possible to complete the first        .
basic survey on the area under vines in one Member State within the prescribed
period ;   whereas it was therefore decided To grant an extension of the agreed
period of one year to this Member State ;       whereas this extension has proved
insufficient because of further complications of a legislative nature ;       whereas
it is therefore advisable to allow this Member State to postpone for a further
year the dates by which this survey must be completed and the results forwarded
to the Commission ;
Whereas it is desirable that the Community should bear part of the expenditure
incurred by Greece for the first basic survey conducted by this Member State ,
HAD ADOPTED THIS REGULATION :
