THE SECOND TO FORM A RESERVE INTENDED TO COVER ANY SUBSEQUENT REQUIREMENTS OF MEMBER STATES WHO HAVE USED UP THEIR INITIAL SHARES ; WHEREAS , IN ORDER TO ENSURE A CERTAIN DEGREE OF SECURITY FOR IMPORTERS OF EACH MEMBER STATE , THE FIRST INSTALMENT SHOULD IN THIS CASE BE FIXED AT ABOUT 85 % OF THE TOTAL QUOTA ;
WHEREAS THE INITIAL SHARES MAY BE USED UP AT DIFFERENT RATES ; WHEREAS , THEREFORE , TO AVOID DISRUPTION OF SUPPLIES , ANY MEMBER STATE WHICH HAS ALMOST USED UP ITS INITIAL SHARE SHOULD DRAW A SUPPLEMENTARY SHARE FROM THE RESERVE ; WHEREAS THIS MUST BE DONE BY EACH MEMBER STATE AS EACH ONE OF ITS SUPPLEMENTARY SHARES IS ALMOST USED UP , AND AS MANY TIMES AS THE RESERVE ALLOWS ; WHEREAS THE INITIAL AND SUPPLEMENTARY SHARES MUST BE VALID UNTIL THE END OF THE QUOTA PERIOD ; WHEREAS THIS FORM OF ADMINISTRATION REQUIRES CLOSE COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE MEMBER STATES AND THE COMMISSION , AND THE COMMISSION MUST BE IN A POSITION TO FOLLOW THE EXTENT TO WHICH THE TARIFF QUOTA HAS BEEN USED UP AND INFORM THE MEMBER STATES ACCORDINGLY ;
WHEREAS IF , AT A GIVEN DATE IN THE QUOTA PERIOD , A CONSIDERABLE QUANTITY OF THE INITIAL SHARE IS LEFT OVER IN A MEMBER STATE , IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THAT MEMBER STATE SHOULD RETURN A SIGNIFICANT PERCENTAGE THEREOF TO THE RESERVE , SO AS TO AVOID A PART OF THE COMMUNITY TARIFF QUOTA REMAINING UNUSED IN ONE MEMBER STATE WHEN IT COULD BE USED IN OTHERS ;
WHEREAS , SINCE THE KINGDOM OF BELGIUM , THE KINGDOM OF THE NETHERLANDS AND THE GRAND DUCHY OF LUXEMBOURG ARE UNITED WITHIN AND JOINTLY REPRESENTED BY THE BENELUX ECONOMIC UNION , ANY MEASURE CONCERNING THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE SHARES ALLOCATED TO THAT ECONOMIC UNION MAY BE CARRIED OUT BY ANY ONE OF ITS MEMBERS ,
