The quantities available for import under the A/B and C tariff quotas for the fourth quarter of 2005 should be determined, having regard, on the one hand, to the volume of tariff quotas provided for in Article 18 of Regulation (EEC) No 404/93 and, on the other hand, to the import licences issued for the first three quarters of 2005. |
|
(3) |
Since this Regulation must apply before the beginning of the period for the submission of licence applications in respect of the fourth quarter of 2005, it should enter into force immediately. |

|
(b) |
submitted by a non-traditional operator may not relate to a quantity exceeding the difference between the annual quantity determined and notified to the operator pursuant to Article 9(3) of Regulation (EC) No 896/2001 and the sum of the quantities covered by import licences issued for the first three quarters of 2005. |
To be accepted, applications for import licences shall be accompanied by a copy of the import licence(s) issued to the operator for the preceding quarters of 2005.
