THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 of 22 December 1995 on the common organisation of the market in rice (1), and in particular Article 10(3) thereof,

From the 2004/05 marketing year the intervention price for rice will fall from EUR 298,35/t to EUR 150/t, exclusive of any monthly increase. To prevent any distortion of competition, the fall in the intervention price must be taken into account when determining the amount of the subsidy applicable to exports of rice covered by subsidy documents issued during the previous marketing year but still valid at the beginning of the 2004/05 marketing year. To that end, Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 2692/89 should provide for that to be taken into account.
(3)
Regulation (EEC) No 2692/89 should be amended accordingly.

3. The adjustment provided for in paragraph 2 shall take account of the conversion rates specified in Article 1 of Regulation No 467/67/EEC. If the amount of the subsidy resulting from this adjustment is below zero, that amount shall be raised to zero.’
Article 2
In Article 1(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1878/2003 the date ‘17 June’ is replaced by ‘29 July’.
