*****COMMISSION  REGULATION (EEC) No 48/82  of 11 January 1982  amending for the second time Regulation (EEC) No 1932/81 on the granting of aid for butter and concentrated butter for use in the manufacture of pastry products, ice-cream and other foodstuffs  THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN  COMMUNITIES,  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,  Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by the Act of Accession of Greece, and in particular Article 12 (3) thereof,  Whereas, pursuant to the provisions of Article 10 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1932/81 (2), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2814/81 (3), a processing security is to be provided for concentrated butter within 30 days following the final day for submission of tenders under the particular invitation to tender concerned and before undertaking manufacture of the said concentrated butter; whereas Article 11 of the same Regulation requires aid for concentrated butter to be paid only within a period of 60 days after provision of proof that the total quantity of concentrated butter to which the tender related has been manufactured; whereas, accordingly, if the concentrated butter was not manufactured, the aid would not be paid nor would the processing security be released; whereas, in order to avoid the cumulative effect of these two consequences, the provisions concerning provision of the processing security should be adapted; whereas it should further be stated that the aid may be paid in proportion to the quantities of butter or concentrated butter for which the necessary proof is furnished; whereas that provision must apply, on application by those concerned, to quantities employed before the entry into force of this Regulation;  Whereas a substantive error in the French text of Regulation (EEC) No 1932/81 should be corrected at the same time;  Whereas the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products has not delivered an opinion within the period set by its chairman,  HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:  Article 1  Regulation (EEC) No 1932/81 is hereby amended as follows:  1.

Article 11 is replaced by the following:  'Article 11  1.
