Within the perimeter mentioned in article L. 761-4, plans to set up or extend premises or groups of premises intended to receive, for the purposes of non-retail sales, products on the list defined by order of the supervisory ministers, with a sales area devoted to these products of more than 1,000 square metres, are subject to authorisation by the administrative authority under the conditions defined in article L. 761-7.
The authorisation provided for in the first paragraph is automatically granted when the market does not have the necessary surface area to allow the proposed establishment or extension.
The authorisation system provided for in this article does not apply to the premises of producers and producer groups for products that come from holdings located within the reference perimeter.
No later than 31 December 2012, an assessment of the organisation of markets of national interest, focusing in particular on the implementation and effectiveness of the reference perimeters with regard to the objectives pursued, shall be presented to Parliament by the competent administrative authority in order to determine whether or not there are grounds for maintaining this system or for changing it with effect from 1 January 2013. The preparation of this assessment shall involve in particular the public establishments and inter-professional organisations concerned.
The conditions for application of this article shall be laid down by decree in the Conseil d’Etat.
