The recent changes in the common agricultural policy and production in the Member States which joined the Community on 1 May 2004 should be taken into account to this end. Pending indication of the initial effects on the sector, the existing quotas for the 2004/2005 marketing year should therefore be rolled over for a further two years.\n(3)\nProducer Member States should allocate their quotas for a period of two years among all potato starch manufacturers on the basis of the quotas for the 2004/2005 marketing year.\n(4)\nQuantities used by potato starch manufacturers in excess of the sub-quotas available in the 2004/2005 marketing year are to be deducted in the 2005/2006 marketing year in accordance with Article 6(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1868/94.\n(5)\nRegulation (EC) No 1868/94 should therefore be amended accordingly.\n(6)\nThe European Economic and Social Committee has given its opinion,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
