Commission notice on the quantity of certain products in the milk and milk products sector available for the second half of 2010 under certain quotas opened by the Community
2010/C 66/05
When import licences were allocated for the first half of 2010 for certain quotas mentioned in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2535/2001 (1), the licence applications covered quantities less than those available for the products concerned. Therefore, the quantity available for each quota for the period 1 July to 31 December 2010 should be calculated taking account of the unallocated quantities resulting from import licence applications lodged between 20 and 30 November 2009 for butter originating in New Zealand under quotas 09.4195 and 09.4182 and for milk products originating in the Republic of Moldova under quota 09.4210.
The quantities available for the period 1 July to 31 December 2010 for the second half of the year of importation for certain quotas referred to in Regulation (EC) No 2535/2001 are set out below.
