Recital 3 a (new)
(3a) In this context, the situation of the agricultural community, especially livestock farmers, can serve as an example. The bi-annual transition to summer-time may make it harder to find market outlets for produce or animals. It is necessary also to take into account the fact that animals do not have their milking schedule changed without consequences, and that yields are reduced at changeover times. Farmers themselves, depending on the natural cycles of the animals on their farms, have their working conditions changed.

Recital 4
(4) A lively public debate is taking place on summer-time arrangements and some Member States have already expressed their preference to discontinue the application of such arrangements. In the light of these developments, it is necessary to continue safeguarding the proper functioning of the internal market and to avoid any significant disruptions thereto caused by divergences between Member States in this area. Therefore, it is appropriate to put an end in a coordinated way to summer-time arrangements, while grouping the Member States into the following three time zones: GMT+1, GMT+2 and GMT+3.

(7) This Directive should apply from 1 April 20219, so that the last summer-time period subject to the rules of Directive 2000/84/EC should start, in every Member State, at 1.00 a.m., Coordinated Universal Time, on 31 March 20219. Member States that, after that summer-time period, intend to adopt a standard time corresponding to the time applied during the winter season in accordance with Directive 2000/84/EC should change their standard time at 1.00 a.m., Coordinated Universal Time, on 2730 October 20219, so that similar and lasting changes occurring in different Member States take place simultaneously. It is desirable that Member States take the decisions on the standard time that each of them will apply as from 20219 in a concerted manner.
