## Introductory text

Council Regulation (EC) No 1582/2006
of 24 October 2006
amending Regulation (EEC) No 1907/90, as regards the derogation on egg washing
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2771/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organisation of the market in eggs, and in particular Article 2(2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas:

Article 6(4) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1907/90 of 26 June 1990 on certain marketing standards for eggs lays down the criteria for the derogation enabling packing centres to continue to wash eggs until 31 December 2006. A derogation has been granted to nine packing centres in Sweden and one in the Netherlands.
