of 19 May 2004
establishing the extent to which import licences applied for under subquota II for frozen meat of bovine animals, as provided for in Regulation (EC) No 780/2003, may be granted
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in beef and veal (1),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 2341/2003 of 29 December 2003 derogating from Regulation (EC) No 780/2003 as regards a tariff subquota for frozen meat of bovine animals covered by CN code 0202 and products covered by CN code 0206 29 91 (2), and in particular Article 1(3) thereof,
Whereas:
Article 1(2)(a)(ii) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2341/2003 sets at 5 742 tonnes the quantity for which approved operators may apply for import licences under subquota II during the period 3 to 7 May 2004. This quantity was reduced to 5 708,65929 tonnes by Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 385/2004. Since the import licences applied for exceed the quantity available, a reduction coefficient should be fixed in accordance with Article 1(3) of Regulation (EC) No 2341/2003,
