THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3492/93 of 13 December 1993 on certain procedures for applying the Europe Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of  Poland, of the other part (1), and in particular Article 1 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3491/93 of 13 December 1993 on certain procedures for applying the Europe Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of  Hungary, of the other part (2), and in particular Article 1 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 520/92 of 27 February 1992 relating to certain procedures for applying the Interim Agreement on trade and trade-related matters between the European Community and the European Coal and Steel Community, of the  other part, and the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic, of the other part (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2235/93 (4), and in particular Article 1 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 of 30 June 1992 on the common organization of the market in cereals (5), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2193/93 (6), and in particular Article 9 thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 121/94 of 25 January 1994 relating to the exemption from the import levy for certain products in the cereals sector laid down in the Agreements between the European Community and the Republic of Poland, the Republic  of Hungary, the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic (7) specifies the quantities of barley, wheat flour and non-roasted malt originating in the Czech and Slovak Republics which enjoy preferential access under the Interim Agreement concluded with  those countries; whereas the volumes for each of the Republics concerned resulting from the Additional Protocols concluded following the dissolution of the Czech Federal Republic were subsequently discovered to have been calculated incorrectly and must  therefore be amended for the 1994/95 and 1995/96 marketing years;
Whereas it is necessary also to amend the period of validity of the import licences in order to bring it into line with the marketing year and by so doing ensure that the rate of importation specified in the Agreements is observed;

Regulation (EC) No 121/94 is hereby amended as follows:
1. Article 3 is replaced by the following:
