Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2771/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organisation of the market in eggs (1), and in particular Article 3(2) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organisation of the market in poultrymeat (2), and in particular Article 3(2) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Article 3(3) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 596/2004 (3) and Article 3(3) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 633/2004 (4) laying down detailed rules for implementing the system of export licences in the egg and poultrymeat sectors respectively provide that export licences are to be issued on the Wednesday following the week during which the applications for export licences were lodged, provided that no particular measures have been taken by the Commission in that period. |

Article 3(3) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 596/2004 (3) and Article 3(3) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 633/2004 (4) laying down detailed rules for implementing the system of export licences in the egg and poultrymeat sectors respectively provide that export licences are to be issued on the Wednesday following the week during which the applications for export licences were lodged, provided that no particular measures have been taken by the Commission in that period.

| (2) | Because of public holidays in 2005 and the irregular publication of the Official Journal of the European Union during those holidays, the period between the lodging of applications and the date on which the licences are issued will be too brief to guarantee proper administration of the market. It should therefore be extended. |
