However, for dried figs intended for the production of fig pastes, that percentage may be up to 100 % of the quantities originally stipulated in the contract between the producer and the processor. That derogation applies only until the 2003/04 marketing year.\n(2)\nSince the reasons for the derogation, i.e. the fact that production and exportation extend over the whole of the marketing year, continue to apply, it should be made permanent.\n(3)\nRegulation (EC) No 1535/2003 should therefore be amended accordingly.\n(4)\nThe measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Products Processed from Fruit and Vegetables,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
