# Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 981/2013                     

# of 11 October 2013

# establishing the allocation coefficient to be applied to applications for export licences for cheese to be exported to the                        United States of America in 2014 under certain GATT quotas                     

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural                           markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation)(1),                        

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1187/2009 of 27 November 2009 laying down special detailed rules for the application                           of Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 as regards export licences and export refunds for milk and milk products(2), and in particular the first subparagraphs of Article 23(1) and (4) thereof,                        

Whereas:

(1)Chapter III, Section 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1187/2009 establishes the procedure for the allocation of export licences for                              cheese to be exported to the United States of America under the GATT quotas referred to in Article 21 of that Regulation.

(2)The export licence applications for certain product groups and quotas exceed the quantities available for the 2014 quota year.                              Allocation coefficients should therefore be established.

(3)In the case of product groups and quotas for which the applications lodged are for quantities smaller than those available,                              it is appropriate to provide for the allocation of the remaining quantities to the applicants in proportion to the quantities                              applied for. The allocation of such further quantities should be conditional upon the competent authority being notified of                              the quantities accepted by the operator concerned and upon the interested operators lodging a security.

(4)Given the time limit for carrying out the procedure for establishing those coefficients, as provided for in Article 23 of                              Regulation (EC) No 1187/2009, this Regulation should apply as soon as possible,
