COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) N° 1323/90

of 14 May 1990

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),

Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (3),

- ECU 4 per ewe for the producers referred to in Article 5 (2) and (4) of that Regulation,
