of 15 January 2004

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products(1), and in particular Article 31(14) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Article 6 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 174/1999(2) lays down the term of validity of export licences.

(2) The accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia to the Community on 1 May 2004 will create a new situation on the market in milk products, which will require appropriate measures to be adopted for the management of export refunds.

(3) To enable the new management measures for export refunds to take effect on the date of accession, the term of validity of export licences for milk products for which an application has been lodged up to 31 March 2004 should be limited to 30 April 2004.

(4) A derogation from Regulation (EC) No 174/1999 should therefore be made.

(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

It shall apply to export licences applied for as from the date of its entry into force.
