COMMISSION DECISION of 7 May 1982 authorizing the Kingdom of the Netherlands to permit temporarily the marketing of field pea seed not satisfying the requirements of Council Directive 66/401/EEC (82/344/EEC) THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, Having regard to Council Directive 66/401/EEC of 14 June 1966 on the marketing of fodder plant seed (1), as last amended by Commission Directive 81/126/EEC (2), and in particular Article 17 thereof, Having regard to the request submitted by the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Whereas in the Netherlands the production of field pea (Pisum sativum L.), proteagineous type, of the variety Finale satisfying the requirements laid down in Directive 66/401/EEC has been insufficient in 1981 and is not adequate to supply the needs of that country; Whereas it has not been possible to cover these needs satisfactorily by certified seed from other Member States, or even from non-member countries, satisfying all the requirements laid down in the said Directive; Whereas the Kingdom of the Netherlands should therefore be authorized to permit, for a period expiring on 30 June 1982, the marketing of seed of the abovementioned species of a category subject to less stringent requirements; Whereas it appears desirable also to authorize other Member States which are able to supply the Netherlands with such seed not satisfying the requirements of the Directive to permit the marketing of such seed, provided that is intended exclusively for the Netherlands; Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry, HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1 The Kingdom of the Netherlands is hereby authorized to permit, until 30 June 1982, the marketing on its territory of a maximum of 280 tonnes of field pea (Pisum sativum L.) seed of the category 'commercial seed' provided that the following requirements are satisfied: (a) the seed shall belong to the variety 'Finale'; (b) the packages of seed shall be labelled with a supplier's label indicating and guaranteeing the variety of the seed; (c) the official label shall state: 'Intended exclusively for the Netherlands'.
