The import duty for semi-milled or wholly milled rice falling within CN code 1006 30 must therefore be amended.\n(2)\nAs the applicable duty must be fixed no later than three days from the end of the period referred to above, this Regulation must enter into force immediately.\n(3)\nThis amendment must take effect on 1 September 2005 in order to take account of the application on that date of Regulation (EC) No 2152/2005. Because this duty is being fixed retroactively, provision must be made to repay the traders concerned any overpayments of duty, at their request,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
