THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2073/92 on promoting consumption in the Community and expanding the markets for milk and milk products (1), and in particular Article 4 thereof,
Whereas Article 6 (2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 3582/93 of 21 December 1993 on detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2073/92 on promoting consumption in the Community and expanding the markets for milk and milk products (2), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1312/97 (3), provides that the competent bodies shall conclude contracts for the selected measures with the successful applicants within one month of notification of the decision to the Member State; whereas this time limit expired on 27 June 1997 for the marketing year 1996/1997; whereas administrative problems of an exceptional nature relating to the internal structure of the successful German applicant have precluded the conclusion of such a contract within the deadline for the marketing year 1996/1997;
Whereas, as a result, a deadline of 27 July 1997 for the conclusion of the contract should be set for the marketing year 1996/1997 in the case of Germany; whereas the delay in the conclusion of the contract will not necessitate a prolongation in the period for the accomplishment of the measures beyond the date that would otherwise have been applicable;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
