THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 of 16 March 1987 on the common organization of the market in wine (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1756/92 (2), and in particular Article 39 (9) thereof,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3720/91 of 18 December 1991 opening compulsory distillation as provided for in Article 39 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 and derogating for the 1991/92 wine year from certain detailed rules for the application thereof (3) opens compulsory distillation of table wine as provided for in Article 39 of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 for the 1991/92 wine year; whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 505/92 of 28 February 1992 (4) lays down the percentages of table wine production to be delivered for compulsory distillation by each person subject to the obligation;

Wheras, in accordance with Article 12 (4) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 441/88 of 17 February 1988 laying down detailed rules for applying compulsory distillation as referred to in Article 39 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 (5), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2070/91 (6), producers are required to deliver table wine to a distillery by 31 July 1992 at the latest;

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1756/92 provides for the possibility of terminating long-term storage contracts in order to send such wine for compulsory distillation; whereas, in view of the date of entry into force of that provision, the final date for the delivery of table wine to distilleries should be put back to 14 August 1992;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,
