Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1557/84 (2), and in particular Article 26 (4) thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2167/83 (3) established the list of products qualifying for Community aid; whereas experience has shown that it is appropriate, within the context of measures to protect the health of young children that, subject to certain conditions, the Member States should be able to permit the addition of fluoride to whole or semi-skimmed flavoured milk and yoghurts intended for schoolchildren;
Whereas Article 7 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 2167/83 lays down that payment of the aid shall be made by the competent authorities within 60 days from the date on which the application was lodged; whereas experience has shown that in certain Member States this period is inadequate; whereas, subject to certain conditions, provision should be made for enabling these Member States to grant an advance after the lodging of a security; whereas, moreover, the time limit laid down for the lodging of applications for aid should be made more flexible;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
