Article 73 ( 1 ) of the Act of Accession of Greece provides for a transitional
period during which the Commission may adopt transitional measures if necessary
to facilitate the passage from the existing arrangements in Greece to those
resulting from the application of the common organization of the markets ,
particularly if for certain products the implementation of the new arrangements
meets with appreciable difficulties .
Such measures may be taken during the period up to 31 December 1982 but their
application may not extend beyond that date .
During this period the Commission has adopted the necessary measures in many
sectors : wine , olive oil , tobacco , beef and veal , seeds , milk and milk products ,
cereals and sugar .
Nonetheless , difficulties of adaptation remain in some sectors ( e.g. wine , olive
oil and cereals ), which cannot be overcome by the date specified .
Article 73 ( 2 ) does in fact lay down that the Council may , acting unanimously
on a proposal from the Commission after consulting the European Parliament ,
extend the transitional period expiring on 31 December 1982 .
Such is the purpose of this proposal .
