COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 486/86  of 25 February 1986  laying down special measures for the granting of the cotton production aid in Spain during the period 1 March to 31 August 1986
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,  Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Article 89 (1) thereof,  Having regard to  Protocol 4 on cotton annexed to the Act of Accession of Greece, as amended by Protocol 14 annexed to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular point 13 thereof,  Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,  Whereas the  Community aid for the production of cotton is to be introduced in Spain from 1 March 1986; whereas, however, there are insurmountable obstacles to implementation of the Community aid arrangements during the current marketing year; whereas special  measures to run until the end of the current marketing year should therefore be taken;  Whereas the national arrangements before accession, as determined by Royal Decree No 491/85 of 20 March 1985 (1), provide for the granting of aid on a basis that  corresponds to the Community provisions but with different rules of implementation; whereas in order to prevent differences in the treatment of persons entitled to the aid, the rules of implementation in force before accession should be applied until  the end of the marketing year;  Whereas the expenditure qualifying for Community financing is that on cotton ginned from 1 March 1986 onwards; whereas in the interests of sound administration a fixed sum should be set in advance for this amount on the  basis of the amount of ginned cotton production that can be anticipated and of the level of the world market price,
