These regulations further amend the Agricultural Products Processing and Marketing (Improvement Grant) Regulations, 1977 (the principal regulations) by substituting a new definition of "the Council Regulation" in regulation 2(1) thereof so as to incorporate a reference to the current Community instrument: Council Regulation (EEC) No. 1932/84 amending Council Regulation (EEC) No. 355/77 as regards common measures to improve the conditions under which agricultural products are to be processed and marketed.
Regulation (EEC) No. 355/77 empowers the Commission (subject, in specified circumstances, to the decision of the Council) to grant to projects aid from the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund conditional upon financial contribution by the member state of the territory on which the projects are to be carried out. The principal regulations empower Ministers to make grants so as to qualify projects for aid under Regulation (EEC) No. 355/77.
Regulation (EEC) No. 1932/84 extends the duration of Regulation (EEC) No. 355/77 to 31 December 1994 and gives the Commission power to extend aid to products not listed in Annex II to the EEC Treaty; it widens the scope of Regulation (EEC) No. 355/77 so as to include aid for projects designed to introduce new techniques, recycling projects, and, subject to restrictions, the purchase of harvesting equipment.
The effect of the amendment is to apply the provisions of the principal regulations to projects eligible under Regulation (EEC) No. 355/77 as extended in scope and time by Regulation (EEC) No. 1932/84.
The Agricultural Products Processing and Marketing (Improvement Grant) (Amendment) Regulations 1983 are revoked.
