The Protocol includes new Community tariff concessions, some of which are limited by tariff quotas.\n(3)\nCommission Regulation (EC) No 305/2005 of 19 October 2004 amending Council Regulation (EC) No 312/2003 as regards tariff quotas for certain products originating in Chile implemented these new concessions.\n(4)\nIn accordance with the Protocol, the volumes of the new tariff quotas should be increased annually, from 1 January 2005, by five percent of the original quantity. In the interest of clarity it is necessary to lay down the total volumes of the tariff quotas available in 2005 for the products in question, in which the increase for that year is already included.\n(5)\nRegulation (EC) No 312/2003 should therefore be amended accordingly.\n(6)\nAs the tariff quota volumes set out in this Regulation have to take effect from 1 January 2005, this Regulation should apply from the same date and should enter into force immediately.\n(7)\nThe measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
