Whereas Article 5 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2102/84 of 13 July 1984 on harvest production and stock declarations relating to wine-sector products (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2459/84 of 20 August 1984 (4), sets 30 November as the latest date for submission of grape harvest declarations by producers in all Member States other than Germany; whereas, as a result of administrative difficulties encountered by the Italian Government, producers did not receive the forms to be used for this declaration in good time; whereas the absence of harvest declarations would have serious consequences on both management of the market and producers' rights; whereas it is essential therefore to defer the latest date for submission of grape harvest declarations for the wine year now in progress;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,
By way of derogation from the second indent of Article 5 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2102/84 harvest declarations in Italy for the 1984/85 wine year shall be made not later than 15 December 1984.
