of 13 June 1988
amending Regulation (EEC) No 2409/86 on the sale of intervention butter intended for incorporation in compound feedingstuffs for animals
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 985/68 of 15 July 1968 laying down general rules for intervention on the market in butter and cream (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 842/88 (2), and in particular Article 7a thereof,
Whereas it is desirable that the quantities of butter leaving intervention storage under the arrangements brought in by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2409/86 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1549/88 (4), be more closely controlled; whereas therefore sales of butter under Title VII of that Regulation should be suspended and the time limit for removal of butter sold by tendering procedure reduced;
Whereas under Article 4 (1) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1883/78 (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2095/87 (6), the expenditure arising from this Regulation is met from the Guarantee Section of the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund; whereas as a result of the change to be made in the common agricultural policy financing arrangements following the European Council of 11 and 12 February 1988 expenditure incurred from 16 September 1988 onwards cannot be entered in the accounts for the 1988 financial year; whereas actual removal from storage must therefore occur before that date; whereas it should therefore be stipulated that removal of butter under Regulation (EEC) No 2409/86 terminate by that date;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
