THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

The extent to which import licences may be issued should therefore be determined by fixing 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).

(3) The quantities on which applications for import rights lodged from to 1 to 7 October 2016 for the sub-period from 1 January to 31 March 2017 are based relate, for some quotas, to quantities exceeding those available. The extent to which import rights may be issued should therefore be determined by fixing the allocation coefficient to be applied to the quantities requested, calculated in accordance with Article 6(3) in conjunction with Article 7(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1301/2006.

(4) The quantities on which applications for import licences and import rights lodged from 1 to 7 October 2016 for the sub-period from 1 January to 31 March 2017 are based relate, for some quotas, to quantities less than those available. The quantities for which applications have not been lodged should therefore be determined, and these should be added to the quantity fixed for the following quota sub-period.
