From 1 March to 31 December 1986 the quota referred to in paragraph 1 shall be reduced by one-sixth.  3.  As far as preferential countries are concerned, should the protocols specified in Article 366 of the Act of Accession or, in  their absence, the autonomous measures taken under Article 367 of that Act, lay down quantitative restrictions, the quantities resulting from the abovementioned provisions shall be determined before fixing the quantities for the other third countries  within the framework arrangements set out in paragraph 1.  Article 2  The detailed rules for applying the quota system referred to in Article 245 of the Act of Accession shall be adopted, as required, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 38 of Regulation No 136/66/EEC of the Council of 22  September 1966 on the establishment of a common organization of the market in oils and fats (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85 (2).
