Inresponse torequests froin theSwiss andAustrian authorities ,thetariff
quotas inquestion have been open since 1July 1970 andcover theperiod
from 1July ineach year to30June inthefollowing year .These quotas
were lastopened byRegulations (EEC)Nos.1482 /79and1483 /79of16July

Inorder tomeet Community obligations ,itistherefore necessary to
adopt Regulations ontheopening ,allocation andadministration ofthe
Community tariff quotas ,fortheperiod from 1July 1980 to30June 198 1,

This isthelobject oftheproposals annexed hereto .
The inclusion ofGreece inthe initiate allocation ofquotas tobeforeseen
asfrom 1January 1981 ,will ,induetime ,bethesubject ofseparate
proposals .

Asregards (theallocation ofthetariff quotas and ,more especially ,the
I . . _
fixing ofinitial shares ,itshould benoted that ,asinthecase ofprevious
quota periods *this hasbeen based largely ontheestimates ofrequirements
! • #bytheMember States ,since specialized ,complete statistical date arenot
available .1
' ι
Theproposal foraRegulation submitted tothe'Council concerning thefirst
tariff quota of38000head ofcattle setoutabove provides for .thefixing
ofafirst part tobeallocated among proportionally totheir forecast needs
among certain Member States among which are theBenelux countries ,Germany ,
I , ,
France ,Ireland ,Italy andtheUnited Kingdom .Theremainder constitutes "a
Community jreserve which maybedrawn uponnotonlybytheaboverrenti oued
Member States ,butalso ,ifnecessary ,byDenmark ..
Theproposed method ofadministration ofthesecond tariff quota .of5000head
ofcattle setoutabove differs' from that proposed under para .5above only
i
inasmuch asthefirst part constitutes 70%ofthequota andtheCommunity
i •
reserve 30%ofthequota ,totake account both ofthelarge quantities vhich
canbeexpected tobedran against theinitial Italian shere forthwith and
theneed tccover anyneeds which mayarise intheBenelux countries and in .
Denmark .*

Theinterpretation tobegiven tot-hephrase "not in.r.^n'-JoJ fr .la ' «i'

hasbeen Jthe subject ofanexchange ofvievs ^unuulTy
■ • i •
Ithad be.en apparent from those discussions that ,inthecase of .ninuils
whose importation was subject tosubmission ofabreeding certificate
(certificate ofpedigree orofregistration inthehftrdbook ),checking
thepurpose forwhich theanimals are infact used would bepoint 1ci ,r-
inview,jin particular ,ofthehigh price ofsuch animals .Assuming
that such acertificate isnotrequired ,aperiod of4months from the
dayofimportation would appear theminimum period after which imported
animals Could beconsidered not tobeintended forslaughter .
This solution wasadopted bytheCouncil asan ,experiment fortheperiod
from IJuly 1974 to30June 1975 andwas then adopted once more for the
following tariff periods .
I •.
Atdiscussions atCouncil level in1978 and 1979 itwas decided with
theagreement ofthe Swiss authorities toextend the control measures
onthenonslaughter ofanimals imported with theabove breeding
certificate under thesecond quota of5/000 head .
