THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to the Treaty of Accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia,

Having regard to the Act of Accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia,

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 416/2004 of 5 March 2004 laying down transitional measures for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 2201/96 and Regulation (EC) No 1535/2003 by reason of the accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia to the European Union [1], and in particular Article 3(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) The quantities of peaches covered by aid applications for the 2004/05 marketing year, as notified by Member States under Article 39(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1535/2003 of 29 August 2003 laying down detailed rules for applying Council Regulation (EC) No 2201/96 as regards the aid scheme for products processed from fruit and vegetables [2], do not exceed the Community threshold. An additional amount is therefore to be paid after the end of the 2004/05 marketing year in the Member States that joined the European Union on 1 May 2004.

(2) Producers in the Czech Republic and Slovakia lodged no aid applications for peaches for processing in the 2004/05 marketing year. No additional amount for the 2004/05 marketing year should therefore be paid in those Member States,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
