The overrun of the processing threshold is assessed on the basis of the average quantities processed under the aid scheme during the three marketing years preceding the marketing year for which the aid is to be fixed, or during an equivalent period.\n(3)\nThe Member States have communicated the quantities of oranges processed under the aid scheme in accordance with Article 39(1)(c) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2111/2003, which lays down detailed rules for the application of Regulation (EC) No 2202/96. Based on this information, it has been established that the Community processing threshold has been overrun by 100 380 tonnes. Within that overrun, Greece, Italy and Portugal have overrun their threshold. The amounts of aid for oranges indicated in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 2202/96 for the 2004/05 marketing year should therefore be reduced by 0,64 % in Greece, 14,95 % in Italy and 0,29 % in Portugal.\n(4)\nThe Member States have communicated the quantities of grapefruit and pomelos processed under the aid scheme in accordance with Article 39(1)(c) of Regulation (EC) No 2111/2003. Based on this information, it has been established that the Community processing threshold has been overrun by 380 tonnes. Within that overrun, Greece and Spain have overrun their thresholds. The amounts of aid for grapefruit and pomelos indicated in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 2202/96 for the 2004/05 marketing year should therefore be reduced by 7,00 % in Greece and 16,45 % in Spain.\n(5)\nThe measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fresh Fruit and Vegetables,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
