COMMISSION  REGULATION (EEC) No 3436/87
of 17 November 1987
amending Regulation (EEC) No 2529/87 laying down detailed rules for applying the co-responsability levy in the cereals sector for 1987/88
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1900/87 (2), and in particular Article 4 (5) and (7) thereof,
Whereas, under Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2529/87 (3), France and Italy are, from 1 September 1987, authorized to collect the co-responsibility levy when the cereals are put on the market; whereas one of the consequences of the introduction of those new arrangements is the fact that the co-responsability levy applies in full to cereal seeds whereas under the previous arrangements those products were in practice granted partial exemption;
Whereas cereals seeds are produced under contracts which are concluded before sowing take place and whereas, in the case of the 1987/88 marketing year, the contracts were concluded before 1 September, the date when the new arrangement to Regulation (EEC) No 2529/87 should be introduced whereby the co-responsibility levy arrangements applicable to cereal seeds would be those in force prior to 1 September;
Whereas, moreover, Article 4 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2529/87 specifies the time-limit for the payment of the co-responsibility levy; whereas the period concerned begins when the products in question are put on the market; whereas, because of difficulties in determining that date in certain cases, in particular where there is no written sales contract, a provision should be introduced whereby the period in question should begin when the products are delivered or consigned;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
