The downgrading of a quality wine psr within the meaning of this Regulation shall consist in withdrawing from the wine concerned entitlement to any of the terms designating it a quality wine psr.
There should be rules governing the way in which the national bodies and the Commission assist each other in ensuring the correct application of wine-sector rules. Such rules must not hinder the application of specific provisions on Community expenditure, on the declassification of quality wines psr, on criminal matters or on national administrative penalties.
