(1) |
Commission Regulation (EC) No 1864/2004 (2) provides for two periods of application for import licences per year. |

In the interest of better management, some order numbers of the tariff quotas opened by Regulation (EC) No 1864/2004 should be changed. For the sake of clarity, all of them should be listed in Annex I to that Regulation. |
|
(4) |
Regulation (EC) No 1864/2004 should therefore be amended accordingly. |

(5) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Products Processed from Fruit and Vegetables, |

8. |
In Article 16, paragraph 1 is replaced by the following: ‘1. If it is found that applications and/or declarations presented by an importer to the competent authorities of a Member State are false, misleading or inaccurate, unless they are clearly due to a genuine error, the competent authorities of the Member States concerned shall exclude the importer in question from the licence applications system for the next application period as referred to in Article 8(2).’; |
