COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1047/2008
of 24 October 2008
on the issue of licences for importing rice under the tariff quotas opened for the October 2008 subperiod by Regulation (EC) No 327/98
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1301/2006 of 31 August 2006 laying down common rules for the administration of import tariff quotas for agricultural products managed by a system of import licences (2), and in particular Article 7(2) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Commission Regulation (EC) No 327/98 of 10 February 1998 opening and providing for the administration of certain tariff quotas for imports of rice and broken rice (3) opened and provided for the administration of certain import tariff quotas for rice and broken rice, broken down by country of origin and split into several subperiods in accordance with Annex IX to that Regulation and Commission Regulation (EC) No 60/2008 (4) (Regulation (EC) No 60/2008 opened a special subperiod in February 2008 for the import tariff quota for wholly milled and semi-milled rice originating in the United States of America). |
|
(2) |
October is the only subperiod for the quota with order number 09.4138 laid down in Article 1(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 327/98. This quota comprises the balance of the unused quantities from the quotas with order numbers 09.4127-09.4128-09.4129-09.4130 in the previous subperiod. October is the last subperiod for the quotas with order numbers 09.4148 and 09.4168 laid down in Article 1(1)(b) and (e) of Regulation (EC) No 327/98, which comprise the balance of the unused quantities from the previous subperiod. |
|
(3) |
The notifications presented under Article 8(a) of Regulation (EC) No 327/98 show that, for the quota with order number 09.4138, the applications lodged in the first 10 working days of October 2008 under Article 4(1) of that Regulation cover a quantity greater than that available. The extent to which licences may be issued should therefore be determined by establishing the allocation coefficient to be applied to the quantities requested. |
|
(4) |
The final percentage take-up for 2008 of each quota provided for by Regulation (EC) No 327/98 should also be made known, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1

For import licence applications for rice under the quota with order number 09.4138 as referred to in Regulation (EC) No 327/98 lodged in the first 10 working days of October 2008, licences shall be issued for the quantities requested, multiplied by the allocation coefficient set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
2. The final percentage take-up for 2008 of each quota provided for by Regulation (EC) No 327/98 is given in the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 24 October 2008.
