THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1670/2000(2), and in particular Articles 10 and 15 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Pursuant to Article 5(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2799/1999 of 17 December 1999 laying down detailed rules for applying Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 as regards the grant of aid for skimmed milk and skimmed-milk powder intended for animal feed and the sale of such skimmed-milk powder(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 213/2001(4), aid is granted for skimmed milk and skimmed-milk powder processed into compound feedingstuffs provided that at least 50 kg of powder is incorporated into every 100 kg of finished product. In the light of the development of the situation on the market for skimmed-milk powder, Commission Regulation (EC) No 2705/2000(5) reduces the abovementioned rate of incorporation temporarily for the period 17 December 2000 to 30 April 2001. For the same reason, that derogation should be extended by two months.
(2) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
