When import licences were allocated for the second half of 2011 for certain quotas referred to in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2535/2001 (1), the licence applications covered quantities smaller than those available for the products concerned. As a result, the quantity available for each quota for the period 1 January to 30 June 2012 should be calculated, taking account of the unallocated quantities resulting from Commission Regulation (EU) No 608/2011 (2) of 22 June 2011 determining the extent to which the applications for import licences submitted in June 2011 for certain dairy products under certain tariff quotas opened by Regulation (EC) No 2535/2001 can be accepted.
