Whereas:
(1) According to Articles 95 and 96 of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003, milk producers qualify for a dairy premium and additional payments from 2004. Under Article 28(2) of the same Regulation, those premiums and payments are to be disbursed once a year within the period from 1 December to 30 June of the following calendar year.
(2) The milk market has recently experienced a substantial fall in milk prices, causing the situation of producers to become destabilised and their financial position to be placed at risk of deterioration. Several Member States have asked the Commission to take urgent measures to combat these difficulties. Bringing forward the disbursement period for the above-mentioned premiums and payments constitutes an appropriate step in this direction. However, for budgetary reasons, it cannot begin before 16 October 2004.
(3) In these circumstances, for 2004, it would be advisable to derogate from the disbursement period referred to in Article 28(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003.
(4) In order to allow milk producers to manage their financial position more effectively, particularly by taking account of the payments which will be made from the date indicated, provision should be made for this Regulation to enter into effect immediately.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Direct Payments,
For 2004, by way of derogation from Article 28(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003, the start of the disbursement period for the dairy premium and additional payments provided for in Title IV, Chapter 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 shall be set at 16 October.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
