Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2389

of 17 December 2015

establishing the allocation coefficient to be applied to the quantities covered by the applications for import licences lodged from 1 to 7 December 2015 and determining the quantities to be added to the quantity fixed for the subperiod from 1 April to 30 June 2016 under the tariff quotas opened by Regulation (EC) No 1385/2007 in the poultrymeat sector

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/20071, and in particular Article 188 thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Commission Regulation (EC) No 1385/20072 opened annual tariff quotas for imports of poultrymeat products.

(2)

For some quotas, the quantities covered by the applications for import licences lodged from 1 to 7 December 2015 for the subperiod from 1 January to 31 March 2016 exceed those available. The extent to which import licences may be issued should therefore be determined by establishing the allocation coefficient to be applied to the quantities requested, calculated in accordance with Article 7(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1301/20063.

(3)

The quantities covered by the applications for import licences lodged from 1 to 7 December 2015 for the subperiod from 1 January to 31 March 2016 are, for some quotas, 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 subperiod.

(4)

In order to ensure the efficient management of the measure, this Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union,
