   THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
   Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
   Having regard to Council Decision 2003/286/EC of 8 April 2003 on the conclusion of a Protocol adjusting the trade aspects of the Europe Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Bulgaria, of the other part, to take account of the outcome of negotiations between the Parties on new mutual agricultural concessions (1), and in particular Article 3(2) thereof,
   Having regard to the Council and Commission Decision 2005/430/EC, Euratom of 18 April 2005 on the conclusion of an Additional Protocol to the Europe Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Bulgaria, of the other part, to take account of accession of the Czech Republic, the Republic of Estonia, the Republic of Cyprus, the Republic of Latvia, the Republic of Lithuania, the Republic of Hungary, the Republic of Malta, the Republic of Poland, the Republic of Slovenia and the Slovak Republic to the European Union (2), and in particular Article 2 thereof,

               By Decision 2003/286/EC the Community undertook to establish nil duty import tariff quotas for wheat, meslin and wheat gluten and for maize from Bulgaria. For the 2003/2004 marketing year the volumes of these were set at 250 000 tonnes and 80 000 tonnes respectively.

Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 958/2003 must therefore be adapted to take account of this increase.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               Regulation (EC) No 958/2003 should be amended accordingly.
            
         
               (4)
