 ---pagebreak---                       EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM.
       The purpose of this proposal for a Regulation is to reduce the rate
of the obligatory distillation for certain quality white wines ( quality
wines psr). Experience has shown that the way in which this type of wine
is made tends to produce a "below-average alcohol content in their "by-products *
So as not to treat these produoers unfairly it is proposed to apply a
reduoed rate to them.

         amending Regulation (EEC ) NO 1930/76 on the distillation
         of the "by-products of wine-making
THE COUNCIL OP THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community ,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC ) NO 816/70 of 28 April 1970 laying
down additional provisions for the common organization of the market in wine ('
as last amended "by Regulation (EEC ) NO 528/77 ( 2 ), and in particular Article
24(6 ) thereof ,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
Whereas experience has shown that the way in which certain quality white wines
psr are produced is such that the alcohol content of their by-products is be­
low average ; whereas application of the normal rate to the producers of these
wines would oblige them , unfairly , to distil relatively large quantities of
wines ; whereas it is therefore desirable to make provision for applying a
lower rate to these producers ;
