THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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), and in particular Article 118s(3) in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,

Whereas:

laying down transitional measures for certain import and export licences and advance fixing certificates for trade in agricultural products between the Union as constituted on 30 June 2013 and Croatia
