New detailed rules should therefore be laid down in Regulation (EC) No 2148/96 as regards the procedure for the physical inspection of the stores as regards sugar.\n(3)\nRegulation (EC) No 2148/96 should therefore be amended accordingly.\n(4)\nGiven that intervention in sugar commenced for the 2004/05 marketing year without detailed inventory rules having been laid down, the manner in which certain Member States have organised the storage of sugar stocks makes it excessively difficult to carry out an inventory according to the normal procedures. Transitional rules should therefore be laid down for sugar stocks from the 2004/05 and 2005/06 marketing years.\n(5)\nThe measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the EAGGF Committee,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
