COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1028/84 of 31 March 1984 amending Regulation (EEC) No 2731/75 fixing standard qualities for common wheat, rye, barley, maize and durum wheat
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,
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 1018/84 (2), and in particular Article 3 (6) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (3),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (4),
Whereas trends in the production and consumption of cereals require that conditions of intervention be reinforced in the long term ; whereas this aim can be achieved only by introducing stricter requirements for the standard qualities and, hence, for the minimum quality stipulated for intervention ; whereas, to this end, the moisture content for maize should be adjusted and the moisture content which should be adopted for the standard quality of common wheat defined;
Whereas an intervention price is to be fixed for sorghum from the 1984/85 marketing year ; whereas such a measure requires a standard quality to be defined;
Whereas a certain number of technical improvements should be made to Regulation (EEC) No 2731/75 (5) when the amendments referred to above are made,
