Whereas:
(1) Article 11(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1282/2001 (2) requires wine growers to submit harvest and production declarations no later than 10 December, so that the volume of Community wine production can be known in good time.
(2) In one Member State, the need to adjust the computer system for handling compulsory declarations as a result of new measures introduced by Council Regulation (EC) No 479/2008 of 29 April 2008 on the common organisation of the market in wine amending Regulations (EC) No 1493/1999, (EC) No 1782/2003, (EC) No 1290/2005 and (EC) No 3/2008, and repealing Regulations (EEC) No 2392/86 and (EC) No 1493/1999 (3), which are linked to the vineyard parcels of the vineyard register, particularly the distillation into potable alcohol, has caused a delay in the availability of this system to producers.
(3) In another Member State, some of the computer centres to which producers have to submit those declarations have experienced a problem of capacity. Those centres are unable to handle all declarations by the deadline.
(4) In order to rectify these two different situations, which are outside producers’ control, and therefore to avoid producers incurring unjustified penalties, they should be granted an extension for the submission of harvest and production declarations and the Member States should be allowed to extend this time frame to a final deadline.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,
Notwithstanding Article 11(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1282/2001, for the 2008/09 wine year the declarations referred to in Articles 2 and 4 of that Regulation may be submitted up to 31 December 2008. However, Member States may extend this time frame to 15 January 2009 at the latest.

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2392/86 of 24 July 1986 establishing a Community vineyard register(1), and in particular Article 9(3) thereof,
After consulting the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund Committee,
Whereas:
(1) Article 9(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2392/86 states that the Community is to contribute 50 % of the actual cost of establishing the Community vineyard register in the Member States and of the investment in data-processing facilities needed to manage the register.
(2) On the basis of Article 9(3) of that Regulation, an advance has been paid to Greece. It will be deducted from the Community contribution.
(3) According to Article 9(4) of that Regulation, Articles 8 and 9 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1258/1999(2) apply to the Community financing for establishing the register.
(4) Greece has sent the Commission, by letters of 15 February 2001 and 3 November 2003, the documents needed to decide on the amount to be defrayed as expenditure incurred in establishing the register.
(5) The Commission has carried out the inspections provided for in Article 9(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1258/1999.
(6) Only expenditure incurred in preparing a usable register is eligible for a Community contribution. In the light of verifications made on the basis of the documents sent by Greece, the reference chart for the entire area under vines was not established on the territory of that Member State within the time limit set. The expenditure declared by Greece does not satisfy the requirements under the rules and may not be funded by the Community.
(7) According to Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 2392/86, the register is to be established in its entirety not later than six years following the date of entry into force of that Regulation. Article 4(4) of the Regulation, inserted by Article 1 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1549/95(3), provides that Member States which, on 1 July 1995, have not yet established a vineyard register or which have only established a partial register shall, before 31 December 1996, establish reference charts covering the entire area under vines.
(8) The deadline for establishing the register in Greece was extended to 31 December 2000.
(9) An assessment of the amount to be defrayed and the amount to be excluded on grounds of failure to comply with Community rules was sent to Greece on 9 August 2002. The letter from Greece dated 3 November 2003 does not alter the assessment made by the Commission,
The Community shall contribute towards the expenditure incurred by Greece in establishing the Community vineyard register the amount shown in the table attached to this Decision.
This Decision is addressed to the Hellenic Republic.
