Raw tobacco: common organisation of the market CMO (amend. Regulation (EEC) No 2075/92)

PURPOSE: to amend Council Regulation 2075/92/EEC on the common organisation of the market in raw tobacco. COMMUNITY MEASURE: Council Regulation 1336/2000/EC amending Regulation 92/2075/EC on the common organisation of the market in raw tobacco. CONTENT: The Council adopted this Regulation which is intended to correct the text of Article 9(4) of Regulation 2075/92/EEC on the common organisation of the market in raw tobacco. The correction was necessary because of an error in the text. Article 9(4) of Regulation 2075/92/EEC stipulates, that before the final date for the conclusion of cultivation contracts, Member States may be authorised to transfer parts of their guarantee threshold allocations to other variety groups, in accordance with paragraph 3. The words "in accordance with paragraph 3", were taken over from a provision that preceded the adoption of the transfer measure. The reference to paragraph 3 in paragraph 4 is deleted in view of the fact that that transfers cannot occur under paragraph 3 without adversely affecting producers. ENTRY INTO FORCE: This Regulation shall enter into force on 27.06.2000 but shall apply from the 1999 harvest. �
