Article 2
1. With effect from the notification of this Decision, Italy shall notify the Commission on a case-by-case basis of each weather event giving rise to compensation under Law No 185/92 and shall provide the appropriate supporting meteorological information, in compliance with points 11.2.1 and 11.3.1 of the Community Guidelines for State aid to the agriculture sector. 2. With effect from the notification of this Decision, Italy shall notify the Commission on a case-by-case basis of any aid to marketing and processing cooperatives provided for by Article 3 of Law No 185/92. 3. Italy shall amend its provisions on aid for insurance contracts in accordance with point 11.5 of the Community Guidelines on State aid for the agriculture sector, as amended, which in paragraph 1 reads as follows: (...) It is consistent Commission policy to allow aid of up to 80 % of the costs of insurance premiums to cover against losses caused by natural disasters and exceptional occurrences, falling within the scope of point 11.2, and by adverse climatic events which may be regarded as natural disasters in accordance with point 11.3. Where the insurance also covers other losses caused by adverse climatic events, or losses caused by animal or plant diseases, the aid rate is reduced to 50 % of the cost of the premium. 4. Italy shall amend its provisions on investment aids for active defence measures in accordance with point 4.1.1 of the Community Guidelines for State aid to the agriculture sector. 5. Italy shall abolish its provisions on operating aids for the operation and maintenance of active defence measures. 6. In accordance with Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1638/98 amending Regulation 136/66/EEC on the establishment of a common organisation of the market in oils and fats(57), the aid provided by the Italian authorities under the legislation which is the subject of this decision must not be granted for additional olive trees planted on or after 1 May 1998. Restructuring measures that involve increasing the number of trees in existing olive groves similarly do not qualify for this assistance.
