THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3901/89 of 12 December 1989 defining lambs as heavy carcases (1), and in particular Article 1 (2) thereof,
Whereas detailed rules for the definition of lambs fattened as heavy carcases were adopted by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2814/90 (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3561/91 (3);
Whereas Greece has decided to apply the provisions of Regulation (EEC) No 3901/89 with effect from the 1992 marketing year; whereas, however, certain administrative difficulties have delayed the implementation of national implementing provisions; whereas, therefore, by way of derogation for the 1992 marketing year in Greece, provision should be made for a longer period for the submission of premium applications and a shorter period for the submission of specific declarations;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sheep and Goats,
