of 4 February 1987
amending Regulation (EEC) No 2040/86 laying down detailed rules for the application of the co-responsibility levy in the cereals sector
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1579/86 (2), and in particular Article 4 (7) thereof,
Whereas Article 2 (1) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2040/86 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3534/86 (4), provides that the co-responsibility levy is to be paid to the competent body in respect of processing operations carried out in one month; whereas this interval may entail difficulties of an administrative nature for operators who process small quantities of cereals; whereas this provision should be relaxed;
Whereas Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 2040/86 provides that operators are to keep accounts indicating, inter alia, the quantities of cereals processed and the date of processing; whereas this provision, which imposes an obligation to keep daily accounts, may be considered too restrictive for certain operators; whereas provision should be made for operators to be allowed to keep monthly accounts; whereas, however, the measures to be taken in the event of a change in the agricultural conversion rate in the course of the month during which the processing operations were carried out should be laid down;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
