(93/415/EEC)THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 66/401/EEC of 14 June 1966 on the marketing of seed of oil and fibre plants (1), as last amended by Commission Directive 92/19/EEC (2) and in particular Article 17 thereof,
Having regard to the requests submitted by Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Ireland and the United Kingdom,
Whereas in the abovementioned countries the production of field bean seed satisfying the requirements of Directive 66/401/EEC has been insufficient in 1992 and therefore is not adequate to meet these countries' needs;
Whereas it is not possible to cover this demand satisfactorily with seed from other Member States, or from third countries, satisfying all the requirements laid down in the said Directive;
Whereas Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Ireland and the United Kingdom should therefore be authorized to permit for a period expiring on 31 July 1993, the marketing of seed of the abovementioned species subject to less stringent requirements;
Whereas, moreover, other Member States, which are able to supply Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Ireland and the United Kingdom with such seed not satisfying the requirements of the said Directive should be authorized to permit the marketing of such seed  provided it is intended for Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Ireland and the United Kingdom;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry,
