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 1301/2006 of 31 August 2006 laying down common rules for the administration                           of import tariff quotas for agricultural products managed by a system of import licences(2), and in particular Article 7(2) thereof,                        

Whereas:

(1)Commission Regulation (EC) No 969/2006(3) opened an annual import tariff quota of 277 988 tonnes of maize (order number 09.4131).

(2)Article 2(1) of Regulation (EC) No 969/2006 fixes a quantity of 138 994 tonnes for subperiod 2 from 1 July to 31 December                              2013.

(3)Based on the notification made under Article 4(3) of Regulation (EC) No 969/2006, the applications lodged from 13.00 on 27                              September 2013 to 13.00 (Brussels time) on 4 October 2013 in accordance with Article 4(1) of that Regulation, relate to quantities                              in excess of those available. The extent to which import licences may be issued should therefore be determined and the allocation                              coefficient to be applied to the quantities applied for should be fixed.

(4)Import licences should no longer be issued under Regulation (EC) No 969/2006 for the current quota period.

(5)In order to ensure sound management of the procedure of issuing import licences, this Regulation should enter into force immediately                              after its publication,
