 The import data in this document provides th e Table MA:2 notification for 2014. Both minimum

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.
