Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 571/88 of 29 February 1988 on the organization of Community surveys on the structure of agricultural holdings (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2467/96 (2), and in particular point 5 of Annex II thereto,
Whereas point 5 of Annex II to Regulation (EEC) No 571/88 requires time limits for the communication of individual data to the Statistical Office of the European Communities by the Member States to be established in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 15 of the said Regulation and whereas the uniform code to be used will be specified by the Statistical Office of the European Communities in agreement with the Member States;
Whereas according to point 6 of Annex II, Germany will not forward individual data; but is obliged to supply the survey results in the form of the tables intended for the BDT tabular data bank;
Whereas the importance of the structure survey results for the common agricultural policy and the growing demand for up-to-date data make it necessary to carry out the computer processing of the survey data and communication thereof to the Statistical Office of the European Communities as quickly as possible;
Whereas the deadlines to be fixed for the communication of survey results to the Statistical Office of the European Communities must take into account the fact that the timetable for carrying out the surveys' work is different between Member States;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision reflect the opinion of the Standing Committee on Agricultural Statistics,
