 NOTIFICATION 
The following submission, dated 13 October 2014, is being circulated at the request of the 
Delegation of Norway . The notification concerns imports under tariff quotas ( Table MA:2 )

_______________ 
 
 The import data in this document provides th e Table MA:2 notification for 2013. Both minimum 
access quotas and current access quotas for cheese, sheep meat, meat to promotional fairs, meat 
of game, apples, pears, hay and turkey roll are included in the notification. For other current 
access quotas included in Norway's Schedule, as of 2000 the bound MFN tariff has been at the level of the in-quota tariff. A tariff-only regi me applies to these TRQs from 2000 and onwards. 
Since Norway has fulfilled its commitments, for the current access quotas with a tariff-only regime, 
these will not be a part of the notification.
