Regulation as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1107/2004 (OJ L 211, 12.6.2004, p. 14).. Article 6(1) of that Regulation stipulates that delivery must take place by the end of the second month following receipt of the offer and in any case not later than 31 August of the current marketing year.(2)As a result of constraints associated with the organisation of the market, following the introduction of the reform of the CAP, resulting from the limiting of the quantities of rice that can be bought into intervention and the fixing of allocation coefficients, it is difficult for the intervention agencies to meet the time limit for the delivery of the products. Consequently, there should be a derogation, for the current 2003/04 marketing year, from the time limit requiring delivery by the end of the second month following.(3)The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
