COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 740/93 of 17 March 1993 setting Community compensation for definitive discontinuation of milk production in Portugal
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),
Whereas the completion of the Single Market presupposes the abolition of trade barriers not only between the Member States of the Community in its composition at 31 December 1985 but also, as far as possible, between those Member States and Spain and  Portugal;
Whereas the abolition of such barriers makes it appropriate to step up efforts to restructuring the milk sector in Portugal to enable that sector to face the increased competition from other Member States; whereas this intensification of effort may be  achieved by facilitating the buying-up of reference quantities with a view to their reallocation in accordance with Council Regulation (EEC) No 3950/92 of 28 December 1992 establishing an additional levy in the milk and milk products sector (2),
The Portuguese Republic shall grant to any producer as defined in Article 9 (c) of Regulation (EEC) No 3950/92 who undertakes before 1 June 1993 to discontinue milk production totally and permanently before 1 September 1993 compensation of  ECU 17 per 100 kg a year paid over three years.
Producers shall be eligible for compensation if they:
- have a reference quantity under Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 3950/92 either for deliveries or for direct sales, and
- satisfy objective criteria determined by the Portuguese Republic in agreement with the Commission.
1. Compensation shall be granted for the reference quantity to which the producer is entitled when this Regulation enters into force.
2. If the holding is held on a lease the application for compensation shall be made by the lessee.
The Portuguese Republic shall determine the terms on which the lessee may make the application and on which compensation may be granted.
Reference quantities released pursuant to this Regulation shall be added to the national reserve referred to in Article 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 3950/92.
Community financing of this programme is limited to a quantity of 75 000 tonnes and a total amount of ECU 38,5 million, to be paid in three annual instalments.
The financing provided for in the first paragraph shall be considered as intervention within the meaning of Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 729/70 (3).
The Commission, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 30 of Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 (4), shall adopt, if necessary, measures for the application of this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 April 1993.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Having regard to the request submitted by the Italian Republic,
Whereas in Italy the production of rice seed satisfying the requirements of Directive 66/402/EEC was insufficient in 1989 and therefore is not adequate to meet that country's 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 Italy should therefore be authorized to permit for a period expiring on 31 May 1990, the marketing of seed of the abovementioned species subject to less stringent requirements;
Whereas, moreover, other Member States, which are able to supply Italy with such seed not satisfying the requirements of the Directive should be authorized to permit the marketing of such seed provided it is intended for Italy;
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,
The Italian Republic is authorized to permit, for a period expiring on 31 May 1990, the marketing in its territory of a maximum of 1 000 tonnes of seed of rice (Oryza sativa L.) of the category 'certified seed of the first generation' or 'certified seed of the second generation', which does not satisfy the requirements laid down in Annex II to Directive 66/402/EEC with regard to the maximum number of red seeds, provided that the following requirements are satisfied:
(a) the number of red seeds of rice in a sample of 500 grams shall not exceed, in the case of certified seed of the first generation, six, or, in the case of certified seed of the second generation, eight;
(b) the official label shall bear the following endorsements:
- (in the case of certified seed of the first generation) 'six red seeds in 500 g sample' or (in the case of certified seed of the second generation) 'eight red seeds in 500 g sample',
- 'intended exclusively for Italy'.
The other Member States are hereby authorized to permit, subject to the conditions laid down in Article 1, the marketing in their territory of a maximum of 1 000 tonnes of rice seed provided that it is intended exclusively for Italy. The official label shall bear the endorsements referred to in Article 1 (b).
Member States shall notify the Commission before 31 July 1990 of the quantities of seed marketed in their territory pursuant to this Decision. The Commission shall inform the other Member States thereof.
