Reserves of planting rights
Article 65
1. Member States shall ensure that the transfer of rights via a national reserve and/or regional reserves does not lead to an overall increase in production potential on their territory. If needed, Member States may apply a reduction coefficient. 2. A Member State shall notify the Commission of the creation of national and/or regional reserves of planting rights or, as the case may be, of its choice not to implement any longer the reserve system. 3. Where a Member State chooses not to implement the reserve system, it shall communicate to the Commission proof that an effective system for managing planting rights exists throughout its territory. 4. Member States shall keep a record of all cases where planting rights are granted from reserves, of all cases where planting rights are transferred between reserves and all cases where planting rights are allocated to reserves. Any payments made in return for allocating rights to a reserve or for granting rights from a reserve shall also be recorded. 5. Member States shall, in the form laid down in Table 9 of Annex XIII, communicate to the Commission in respect of each wine year: (a) the planting rights allocated to the reserves; (b) the planting rights granted from the reserve against or without payment.
