COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 763/85
of 12 March 1985
amending Regulation (EEC) No 269/79 establishing a common measure for forestry in certain Mediterranean zones of the Community
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 the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),
Whereas the common measure for forestry introduced by Council Regulation (EEC) No 269/79 (2), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2119/83 (3), has met with great interest and has been satisfactorily applied; whereas that common measure expired on 31 December 1984;
Whereas these forestry activities, from which local agriculture has unquestionably gained, are but a first step towards improving agricultural structures through forestry measures in the Mediterranean regions of the Community, and should be continued without interruption;
Whereas, in order to ensure the continuity of the common measure, it is appropriate to extend its duration until 31 December 1985 and to increase the physical limits on the work by 20 % in the light of this extension,
