(6)Regulation (EU) No 648/2012 and this Regulation refer to time periods and dates. This is the case, for instance, when establishing limitation periods for the imposition and enforcement of penalties. To enable those periods to be correctly calculated, it is appropriate to apply rules which already exist within Union legislation for acts of the Council and the Commission as provided for in Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1182/71 of the Council 4 for acts of the Council and the Commission.
