Hungary has therefore informed the Commission of its intervention agency’s intention to change the quantity put out to tender for export. In view of that request, the quantities available and the market situation, the maximum quantity covered by the standing invitation to tender opened by Regulation (EC) No 1384/2005 should be amended.

Regulation (EC) No 1384/2005 should therefore be amended accordingly.
