REGULATION No 211/66/EEC OF THE COUNCIL of 14 December 1966 adding a supplementary quality class to the common quality standards for certain fruits and vegetables
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC COMMUNITY
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community;
Having regard to Council Regulation No 158/66/EEC 1 on applying the common quality standards to fruit and vegetables marketed within Community, and in particular Article 2 thereof;
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission;
Whereas application of the common quality standards already in force in trade between Member States to cauliflowers, tomatoes, apples and pears, peaches, citrus fruits and table grapes marketed within the Community would prevent part of the output from being marketed ; whereas, therefore, these standards should be supplemented by a further quality class to permit, for the period laid down in the last subparagraph of Article 2 (1) of Regulation No 158/66/EEC, the marketing of products which although excluded from higher classes nevertheless fulfil criteria of quality which can satisfy consumer requirements and are of value from the producers' point of view;
