THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organisation of the market in beef and veal (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1633/98 (2), and in particular Articles 4b(8) and 4d(8) thereof,
Whereas Article 44 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3886/92 of 23 December 1992 laying down detailed rules for the application of the premium schemes provided for in Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 on the common organisation of the market in beef and repealing Regulations (EEC) No 1244/82 and (EEC) No 714/89 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1899/98 (4), lays down certain rules concerning the payment of advances; whereas, given the difficult market situation for beef and veal due to serious economic problems in a number of traditional markets, aggravated for producers in some Member States by a lack of fodder caused by bad weather conditions, an increase in the advance on the special and suckler cow premiums and an earlier initial date for payment of those advances should be authorised;
Whereas this Regulation must enter into force immediately in order to permit the payment of advances from 16 October 1998;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
