Commission Regulation (EC) No 2705/1999 (3) estab-
lished a standard import value for determining the entry
price of clementines, mandarins and similar citrus
hybrids originating in certain third countries.

An error has been discovered in the Annex to that
Regulation. The Regulation in question should therefore
be corrected.

Article 4(3) of Regulation (EC) No 3223/94 provides
that, where no standard import value is in force for a
product for a given origin, the average of the standard
import values in force for that product is to apply. As a
result, that average should be recalculated if one of its
component standard import values is corrected.

Application of the corrected standard import value must
be requested by the party concerned so that they are not
placed retroactively at a disadvantage,
