Whereas the time set for studying these effects and consequences has proved too short; whereas the research undertaken has only been partially completed; whereas sufficiently representative results have not yet been obtained, in particular from the  point of view of animal health and welfare; whereas in-depth studies should therefore continue in order to secure the additional data needed;
Whereas the possibility of a common approach by the principal countries involved in producing, exporting and importing dairy products should be investigated; whereas, finally, further deliberation is necessary regarding some aspects of consistency with  other Community policies;
Whereas, in order not to anticipate the results of the studies in question, the prohibition regarding the placing on the market and administration of bovine somatotrophin should be extended until a later date,
Decision 90/218/EEC is hereby amended as follows:
