amending Regulation (EEC) No 2959/82 laying down general rules in respect of production aid for olive oil for the 1982/83 marketing year

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC of 22 September 1966 on the establishment of a common organization of the market in oils and fats (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1413/82 (2), and in particular Articles 5 (4) and 36 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas Article 5 of Regulation No 136/66/EEC introduced a system of production aid for olive oil; whereas, for the 1983/84 marketing year, this aid is granted, on the basis of the quantity of oil actually produced, to growers who are members of the organizations specified by Regulation (EEC) No 2958/82 (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2892/83 (4), while, for other growers, it is granted on the basis of the number and production potential of olive trees and of the yields of such trees, as determined according to a standard method, and provided that the olives produced have actually been harvested;

Whereas, in order to ensure that the production aid scheme is applied properly and without disruption, the general rules in force during the 1982/83 marketing year, as laid down by Regulation (EEC) No 2959/82 (5), should be applied for the 1983/84 marketing year,
