## Preamble

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organisation of the market in pigmeat [^1] , and in particular Article 4(6) thereof,

Whereas:

**(1)** Private storage aid granted pursuant to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1267/2007 of 26 October 2007 on special conditions for the granting of private storage aid for pigmeat [^2] has had a favourable effect on the pigmeat market. A temporary stabilisation of prices is expected. The granting of private storage aid for pigmeat should therefore be ended.

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

## **Article 1**

The time limit for the submission of applications for private storage aid for pigmeat shall be 4 December 2007.

## **Article 2**

This Regulation shall enter into force on 4 December 2007.

## Final provisions

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States. Done at Brussels, 3 December 2007. *For the Commission* Mariann FISCHER BOEL *Member of the Commission*
