COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2515/2001

of 20 December 2001

determining the extent to which applications lodged in December 2001 for licences for certain eggs
and poultrymeat products under the regime provided for by the Interim Agreements concluded by

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1899/97, of
29 September 1997, setting rules of application in the poultry-
meat and egg sectors for the arrangements covered by the
Europe Agreements with central and east European countries
provided for by Council Regulations (EC) No 1727/2000, (EC)
No 2290/2000, (EC) No 2433/2000, (EC) No 2434/2000, (EC)
No 2435/2000 and (EC) No 2851/2000 and repealing Regula-
tions (EEC) No 2699/93 and (EC) No 1559/94 (1), as amended
by Regulation (EC) No 1043/2001 (2) and in particular Article
4(5) thereof,

Whereas:

The applications for import licences lodged for the first quarter
of 2002 are, in the case of some products, for quantities less
than or equal to the quantities available and can therefore be
met in full, but in the case of other products the said applica-

tions are for quantities greater than the quantities available and
must therefore be reduced by a fixed percentage to ensure a fair
distribution,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Applications for import licences for the period 1 January
1.
to 31 March 2002 submitted under Regulation (EC) No 1899/
97 shall be met as referred to in the Annex to this Regulation.

2.
Applications for import licences for the period 1 April to
30 June 2002 may be lodged pursuant to Regulation (EC) No
1899/97 for the total quantity as referred to in the Annex to
this Regulation.

This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 2002.

Article 2

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 20 December 2001.
