Article 1 
Member States shall ensure that the checks provided for in Chapter VI, point D of Annex A to Directive 85/397/EEC, on the freezing point of untreated milk are carried out according to the following detailed procedures:

1.. the untreated milk of each holding must be checked regularly by random sampling.
Where the milk of a single holding is delivered directly to a treatment establishment, these samples are to be taken when the milk is collected from the holding with precautions however being taken to prevent any fraud during transport either before unloading at the treatment establishment or when the milk is delivered there directly by the farmer.
If the results of a check lead the competent authority to suspect that water is being added, it shall take an authentic sample on the holding. An authentic sample is a sample representing the milk of one completely supervised morning or evening milking beginning not less than eleven hours or more than thirteen hours after the previous milking.
Where milk is delivered from several holdings, samples may only be taken when the untreated milk enters the treatment establishment or collection or standardization centre with spot checks however being carried out on the holdings.
If the results of a check show that the standard laid down in Chapter VI, point D of Annex A to Directive 85/397/EEC has been exceeded, samples shall be taken at all holdings which took part in the collection of the untreated milk at issue.
If necessary, the competent authority shall take authentic samples within the meaning of the third subparagraph of point 1;
2.. if the results of the check refute the suspicion of water being added, the untreated milk may be used for producing heat-treated milk.
Article 2 
Member States shall bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary for them to comply with this Directive no later than 1 July 1990.
Article 3 
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.
