                         COUNCIL REGULATION ( EEC )
    amending Regulation ( EEC ) No 458 / 80 on collective projects for
                     the restructuring of vineyards

 ---pagebreak---                                   EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
In accordance with Articles 9(1 ) and 14(2 ) of Council Regulation
( EEC ) No 458 / 80 , the period envisaged for implementing the common measure
provided for in that Regulation is seven wine-growing years from
1 September 1980 : the measure thus terminates on 31 August 1987 .
The amendment to that Regulation contained in Regulation ( EEC ) No 3827 / 85
aims to make it applicable to Spain in the same way as to the other Member
States .
It has not been possible to apply this measure properly because of the very
short interval between Spain’s accession to the Community and 31 August 1987 ,
the date of termination of the measure . A further period of four months is
thus necessary to enable EAGGF aid to be granted to some of the projects
submitted by Spain .
In order to restrict as far as possible any effect on the volume of
production , the possibility of including new planting will no longer be
provided for . In addition restructuring projects must be restricted to
vineyards in quality wine psr zones , encouraging conversion from table wines
to quality wines psr . In addition projects to be co-financed during the
extension period must be in less-favoured areas within the meaning of
Directive 75 / 268 / EEC , as defined in Directive 86 / 466 / EEC concerning the
Community list of less-favoured farming areas in Spain .
Commitment appropriations of up to 9 million ECU will be made available by
transfer within the 1987 budget .

                             COUNCIL REGULATION ( EEC )
       amending Regulation ( EEC ) No 458 / 80 on collective projects for
                          the restructuring of vineyards
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 ( 2 ),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee ,
Whereas Article 9(1 ) of Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 458 / 80 ( 3 ), as last amended
by Regulation ( EEC ) No 3827 / 85 ( 4 ), provides for a common measure lasting seven
wine-growing years from the date of application of that Regulation and whereas
Article 14 thereof provides that it shall apply from 1 September 1980 ;
Whereas Articles 8 and 9 of Regulation ( EEC ) No 458 / 80 , as amended by Regulation
( EEC ) No 3827 / 85 , provide that 34 000 hectares should be added for Spain , at an
estimated cost of 26.5 million ECU ;
Whereas the interval between the date of Spain 's accession to the Community and
the end of the period of application is particularly short ;
Whereas in order to enable Spain to achieve the objectives laid down in Regulation
( EEC ) No 3827 / 85 the period of application of that Regulation for Spanish projects
should be extended to 31 December 1987 ;
Whereas in order to avoid an increase in the volume of production , the
possibility of aid for new planting should be discontinued and collective
restructuring should be restricted to vineyards in zones producing quality
wines psr , priority being granted to conversion from production of table wines
to that of quality wine psr in vineyards located in less-favoured areas as defined
in Council Directive 86 / 466 / EEC of 14 July 1986 concerning the Community list of
less-favoured farming areas within the meaning of Directive 75 / 268 / EEC ( Spain ) ( 5 ),

7. Observations : , "^he Proposal involves no expenditure beyond that initially
    provided for , i.e. 26.5 million ECU, when Regulation ( EEC ) No 3827 /85 was adopted,
    amending Regulation ( EEC ) No 458 / 80 on account of the accession of Spain to the
    Community .
    However , as the appropriations in Article 332 of the 1987 budget - 80 million ECU,
   of which 29 million will finance projects under Regulation ( EEC ) No 458 / 80 - have r
   proved inadequate to finance Spanish projects up to the amount initially provided
    for , it is necessary to increase the commitment appropriations in that Article
   by 9 mi llion ECU .
