    COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/29

    of 13 January 2016

    establishing the allocation coefficient to be applied to the quantities covered by the applications for import licences lodged from 4 to 8 January 2016 in the context of the tariff quota for maize opened by Regulation (EC) No 969/2006

    THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

    Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

    Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007 (1), and in particular Article 188(1) and (3) thereof,

    Whereas:

    (1)

    Commission Regulation (EC) No 969/2006 (2) opened an annual import tariff quota of 277 988 tonnes of maize (order number 09.4131).

    (2)

    Article 2(1) of Regulation (EC) No 969/2006 fixes a quantity of 138 994 tonnes for subperiod 1 from 1 January to 30 June 2016.

    (3)

    The quantities covered by the applications for import licences lodged from 4 to 8 January 2016 at 13.00 (Brussels time) exceed those available. The extent to which import licences may be issued should therefore be determined by establishing the allocation coefficient to be applied to the quantities requested, calculated in accordance with Article 7(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1301/2006 (3).

    (4)

    Import licences should no longer be issued under Regulation (EC) No 969/2006 for the current quota subperiod.

    (5)

    In order to ensure the efficiency of the measure, this Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union,
