Explanatory notes : 
 
1 "None" means that there were no in-quota imports for that particular tariff subheading given that, even though the correspondi ng quota was opened, it could not be allocated 
and was declared invalid for one of the following reasons:  there was no seller (external supplier);  there was no buyer (domes tic importer);  there was neither a buyer nor a 
seller;  or there was both a buyer and a seller, but the transaction was not closed (no sales contract was signed). 
2 Imports exceed the quota quantities given that these are bulk products  to which a tolerance of plus or minus 5 per cent applies .
