Having regard to the proposal from the Commission;
Whereas Article 3 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 619/71 (3) of 22 March 1971 laying down general rules for granting aid for flax and hemp provides that aid shall be granted to the grower, but that for flax grown mainly for fibre, aid shall be divided between the grower and the initial purchaser;
Whereas the application of the system laid down in Article 3 has met with some difficulties in respect of fibre flax ; whereas consequently the said system should be amended in order to adapt it to the existing situation in the Member States;
