  this quantity shall be reduced by 2 kilogrammes per degree Plato, the actual strength having first been rounded to the next degree down . For beer of a
  strength exceeding 13° Plato, this quantity shall be increased by 2-5 kilogrammes per degree Plato, the actual strength having first been rounded to the
  next degree up .
2 This quantity shall be understood to be calculated for an aqueous solution of sorbitol with a dry matter content by weight of 70% . For aqueous solutions
  of sorbitol with a" different dry matter content, this quantity shall be increased or reduced , as the case may be , in proportion to the actual dry matter
  content, and rounded to the next kilogramme down .
3 A fixed quantity , on the basis of the casein used , at the rate of 291 kilogrammes of milk powder ( PG 2 ) per 100 kilogrammes of cascin .
4 A quantity resulting from the application of the coefficient fixed for calculating the amount of the import charge.
