COMMISSION DECISION of 9 April 1986 approving a modification to the programme for the pigmeat sector in Denmark pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 (Only the Danish text is authentic) (86/166/EEC) THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 of 15 February 1977 on common measures to improve the conditions under which agricultural and fishery products are processed and marketed (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1247/85 (2), and in particular Article 5 thereof, Whereas on 20 February 1985 the Danish Government forwarded a modification to the programme for the pigmeat sector in Denmark approved by Commission Decision 79/432/EEC (3); Whereas this modification involves the expansion and specialization in the meat processing sector and the adaptation of pig slaughtering capacity in order to take account of an expected 3 to 4 % annual increase in pig production with the aim of improving the techniques of processing and marketing and hence the quantity and quality of the products processed and marketed; whereas it therefore constitutes a programme within the meaning of Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77; Whereas however new or restructured pig slaughtering units must have a minimum throughput after completion of 200 000 pigs per annum and an average rate of slaughtering capacity three years after completion of at least 60 % calculated on a basis of 1 800 hours of work per annum; Whereas such projects may only be aided if at the same time there is a certain reduction of non-rational capacity; Whereas projects for the installation of cold stores and refrigerated warehouses may only be aided if these facilities are linked to processing or marketing facilities; Whereas the modification contains sufficient of the details listed in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 to show that the aims set out in Article 1 of that Regulation can be achieved in the pigmeat sector in Denmark; whereas the estimated time required for implementation of the modification does not exceed the period mentioned in Article 3 (1) (g) of the Regulation; Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Agricultural Structure, HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
