of 7 January 2009

fixing the allocation coefficient to be applied to applications for import licences lodged from 1 January 2009 to 2 January 2009 under the Community tariff quota for maize opened by Regulation (EC) No 969/2006

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 969/2006 (3) opened an annual import tariff quota of 242 074 tonnes of maize (order number 09.4131).

(2)

Article 2(1) of Regulation (EC) No 969/2006 fixes a quantity of 121 037 tonnes for subperiod 1 from 1 January to 30 June 2009.

(3)

Based on the notification made under Article 4(3) of Regulation (EC) No 969/2006, the applications lodged from 1 January 2009 to 13:00 (Brussels time) on 2 January 2009 in accordance with Article 4(1) of that Regulation relate to quantities in excess of those available. The extent to which import licences may be issued should therefore be determined and the allocation coefficient laid down to be applied to the quantities applied for.

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

2.   The issue of licences for the quantities applied for from 13:00 (Brussels time) on 2 January 2009 is hereby suspended for the current quota subperiod.

Done at Brussels, 7 January 2009.
