(2) Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1429/95 fixed the conditions in which special measures may be taken by the Commission with a view to preventing an overrun in the quantities for which export licences may be issued. (3) In the light of information now available to the Commission, these quantities would be exceeded if all licences with advance fixing of the refund for the export of sugar-preserved cherries applied for since 20 February 2004 were issued without restriction.
