THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1785/2003 of 29 September 2003 on the common organisation of the market in rice
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) 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 and in particular Article 7(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 2021/2006 opens an annual overall tariff quota for the import of 160000 tonnes of rice, in husked-rice equivalent, comprising 125000 tonnes originating in the ACP States (serial number 09.4187), 25000 tonnes originating in the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba (serial number 09.4189) and 10000 tonnes originating in the least developed OCTs (serial number 09.4190), and an annual tariff quota of 20000 tonnes of broken rice (serial number 09.4188).
(2) For the quota with serial number 09.4187, Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 2021/2006 sets the quantity available for the sub-period January at 41668 tonnes. For the quota with serial number 09.4188, Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 2021/2006 sets the quantity available for the sub-period January at 10000 tonnes. For the quota with serial number 09.4189, Article 9(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 2021/2006 sets the quantity available for the sub-period January at 8334 tonnes. For the quota with serial number 09.4190, Article 9(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 2021/2006 sets the quantity available for the sub-period January at 3334 tonnes.
(3) The information provided in accordance with Article 17(a) of Regulation (EC) No 2021/2006 shows that, in the case of the quota with serial number 09.4187, applications lodged from 15 to 19 January 2007 in accordance with Article 13 of that Regulation cover a quantity in husked-rice equivalent greater than the quantity available. As a result, the extent to which import licences may be issued should be determined by laying down the award coefficient to be applied to the quantities applied for.
(4) In the case of the quotas with serial numbers 09.4188, 09.4189 and 09.4190, the quantities carried over to the next sub-period and the total quantities available for each quota should also be laid down,
