                     EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
Council Regulation (EEC) No 458 / 80 adopted on 18 February 1980 as part
of the action programme for wine initiated a common measure for the
restructuring of vineyards for implementation in vineyards producing
table wine and in those suitable for the production of quality wine psr ;
there is no provision for a breakdown in surface area between the two
categories of vineyard concerned .
Experience acquired in applying this Regulation suggests that it could
be amended to make the measure more effective .
The attached proposal retains the same overall surface area but provides
for a breakdown between vineyards producing table wine and those
producing quality wine psr , in line with the object of the exercise ,
which is to improve the structure of the former while at the same time
making adequate provision for the latter .
Adoption of this proposal will not generate any extra expenditure .

                  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 A3 thereof ,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission1
                                                        2
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament ,
                                                                  1
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee ,
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 458/80 of 18 February 1980^, as
amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2991 /81 , initiated a common measure in
certain vineyards producing table wines and in those suitable for the
production of quality wines psr which takes the form of a premium
granted for the restructuring of vineyards ; whereas the amount of the
premium is identical regardless of whether the vineyards produce table
wines or quality wines psr ; whereas there is no breakdown of surface
area between the two categories of vineyard ;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 458 /80 must have an impact on the structural
situation of vineyards producing table wines as well as on that of
vineyards producing quality wines psr ; whereas priority must , however ,
be given to vineyards producing table wines ; whereas efforts must
therefore be made to ensure that vineyards producing quality wines psr
are not the main beneficiaries of the measure ; whereas Regulation (EEC )
No 458 /80 should accordingly be amended in order to introduce a
breakdown between vineyards producing table wines and those producing
quality wines psr ;
