Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1137/98 of
29 May 1998 concerning a protective measure applicable
to imports of garlic from China (3), and in particular
Article 1(3) thereof,

Whereas pursuant to Commission Regulation (EEC) No
1859/93 (4), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1662/
94 (5), the release for free circulation in the Community of
garlic imported from third countries is subject to presen-
tation of an import licence;

Whereas Article 1(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1137/98,
restricts the issue of import licences for garlic originating
in China to a maximum monthly quantity in the case of
applications lodged from 1 June 1998 to 31 May 1999;

Whereas, given the criteria laid down in Article 1(2) of
that Regulation and the import licences already issued,
the quantity applied for on 4 December 1998 is in excess
of the maximum monthly quantity given in the Annex to

that Regulation for
the month of December 1998;
whereas it is therefore necessary to determine to what
extent import licences may be issued in response to these
applications; whereas the issue of licences in response to
applications lodged after 4 December 1998 and before 7
January 1999 should be refused,
