(4)  With the accession of Cyprus and Malta, the derogations provided for in Article 13a(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1501/95 are no longer needed and should therefore be deleted. (5)  Commission Regulation (EC) No 1249/96 (**) provides for a flat-rate adjustment to import duties, in particularly for the Scandinavian countries, to take account of the differences in freight costs by port of destination. That measure should be extended to include the Baltic ports of the new Member States.

Commission Regu- lation (EC) No 824/2000 of 19 April 2000 establishing procedures for the taking-over of cereals by intervention agencies and laying down methods of analysis for deter- mining the quality of cereals (**) should therefore provide that the same conditions are to apply to the taking-over of cereals by intervention agencies in the case of these two new Member States as for Finland and Sweden. (7)  After accession, the Community tariff quotas involving Hungary provided for in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2133/2001 (") will lapse. The references to those quotas should therefore be deleted. (8)  Following the conclusion of trade agreements with the new Member States, Regulation (EC) No 13422003 lays down a specific procedure for exports of cereal products to those countries.
