 Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No
 816/70 of 28 April 1970 laying down additional provi­           Regulation (EEC) No 2205/77 is hereby amended as
                                                                 follows :

                                                                      1978 '.
 Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2205/77                  (b) in Article 2 (2) for ' 15 February 1978 ' read ' 15

  1977/78 wine-growing year (3), provides that applica­
 tions for approval of distillation contracts must be
 submitted between 9 October 1977 and 1 February
  1978 ; whereas, in view of an increase in such applica­                                   Article 2
 tions, this period has proved too short ; whereas it
 should therefore be extended until 1 March 1978 so
                                                                 This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its
