As a result, above a certain threshold, the production under quota of each undertaking is considered withdrawn within the meaning of Article 19 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 or, if so requested by the undertaking before 31 January 2007, as produced in excess of the quota within the meaning of Article 12 of that Regu- lation. (20  On the deadline of 31 January 2007 isoglucose producers were not, unlike sugar producers, in a position to make such a request due to the continuous, year-round nature of their production. In the interests of fairness this deadline should, for isoglucose producers, be postponed to the end of the 2006/2007 marketing year to enable them to take their decision and make their request in full knowledge of the facts. (3)  Regulation (EC) No 493/2006 should be amended accordingly. (4)  The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for sugar, HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: Article 1 In Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 493/2006, paragraph 1 is replaced by the following: ‘1.
