THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 July 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2071/90 (2), and in particular Articles 13 (3) and 17 (4) thereof,
