COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1037/84 of 31 March 1984 amending, for the second time, Regulation (EEC) No 1614/79 laying down special measures in respect of soya beans

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 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),

Whereas the dates on which the marketing year for soya beans begins and ends are laid down in Article 1 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 1614/79 (4), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1984/82 (5) ; whereas experience has shown that those dates are no longer representative of soya bean harvesting and marketing periods ; whereas the said dates should therefore be amended;

Whereas, at present, aid for soya beans is determined solely during the most representative period as regards the disposal of beans grown in the Community ; whereas in the light of the current level of Community production such a restriction is no longer justified ; whereas the aid should therefore be fixed periodically throughout the marketing year, with a view to ensuring that the conditions applicable to beans grown in the Community are comparable with those applicable, on purchase, for beans imported from non-member countries.

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Regulation (EEC) No 1614/79 is hereby amended as follows: 1. The second subparagraph of Article 1 (2) shall be replaced by the following:
