      COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1594/2006
   of 25 October 2006
   establishing the allocation coefficient to be applied to applications for export licences for cheese to be exported to the United States of America in 2007 under certain GATT quotas
   THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
   Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (1),
   Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006 of 17 August 2006 laying down special detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 as regards export licences and export refunds for milk and milk products (2), and in particular Article 25(1) thereof,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               Commission Regulation (EC) No 1285/2006 (3) opens the procedure for the allocation of export licences for cheese to be exported to the United States of America in 2007 under the GATT quotas referred to in Article 23 of Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006.
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               Applications for licences for some quotas and product groups exceed the quantities available for the 2007 quota year. Allocation coefficients as provided for in Article 25(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006 should therefore be fixed.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               Given the time limit for the implementation of the procedure of determining those coefficients, as provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1285/2006, this Regulation should apply as soon as possible,
            
         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   Applications for export licences lodged in accordance with Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1285/2006 shall be accepted subject to the application of the allocation coefficients set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
   Article 2
   This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
   
      This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
