whole milk for human consumption either the formula of non-ntnndardi /, eu
whole milk whose fat content has not boon altered since the milking stago
( Ireland and the United Kingdom) or the formula of standardized whole milk
with a minimum fat content of 3.5$ ( all other Member States , with the
exception of Italy who have made use of the authorization laid down in
Article 6(3 ) of the aforesaid Regulation,
Pursuant to Article 3 of Regulation (EKC ) No I4II/7I , Ireland and the
United Kingdom must , however , permit the marketing on their territories of
standardized whole milk coming from another Member State if the fat content
of such milk is not less than a percentage to be fixed for each milk year
and corresponds to the weighted average fat content of the whole milk pro­
duced and marketed in the Member State in question during the previous     •
year ( guideline figure ).
According to the figures supplied to the Commission by the two Member
States concerned , the above-mentioned weighted average is 3«59$ for Ireland
and        for the United Kingdom,
It is therefore proposed that the Council should , pursuant to Article 3(7 )
of Regulation (EEC ) No 141l/71 » fix those figures as guideline figures for
the milk year 1*79/1*80 .
