Article 5(2) of that Regulation lays down that, when there is an overrun of this threshold, the aid fixed in Annex I thereto shall be reduced in each Member State in which the threshold has been overrun. The overrun of the processing threshold is assessed on the basis of the average of the quantities processed under the aid scheme during the three marketing years preceding the marketing year in question, or during an equivalent period. Article 5(3) allows the Member States to divide the national threshold laid down for small citrus fruits into two subthresholds, one for small citrus fruit for processing into segments, the other for small citrus fruit for processing into juice. If the national threshold has been so subdivided, the reduction in aid in the event of an overrun is applied to the aid for both subthresholds in proportion to the recorded overrun for the subthreshold concerned. Spain has applied this provision. The segments subthreshold has been fixed at 125 805 tonnes and the juice subthreshold at 144 381 tonnes. (2)  The Member States, in accordance with Article 22(1)(b) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1169/97 of 26 June 1997 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 2202/96 introducing a Community aid scheme for producers of certain citrus fruits (%), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2729/ 1999 (), have communicated the quantities of small citrus fruit processed under the aid scheme.
