COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1270/94 of 1 June 1994 concerning the issue of import licences for garlic originating in China
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 of 18 May 1972 on the common organization of the market in fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 3669/93 (2), and in particular Article 29 (2) thereof,
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 2707/72 (3) lays down the conditions for applying protective measures to fruit and vegetables;
Whereas pursuant to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1859/93 (4), the release into free circulation into the Community of garlic imported from third countries is subject to the presentation of an import licence;
Whereas Article 1 (1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1213/94 (5) restricts the issue of import licences until 31 August 1994 to 5 000 tonnes of the total quantity of 10 000 tonnes fixed for the period from 31 May 1994 to 31 May 1995;
Whereas, given the import licences already issued, the quantities applied for on 31 May 1994 exceed the balance of the maximum quantities thus fixed; whereas the extent to which import licences may be issued for those applications should therefore be  determined; whereas the issue of licences for applications submitted from 1 June 1994 should therefore be suspended until 31 August 1994,
