89AC  Method for issuing tariff rate quota certificates

Issuing tariff rate quota certificates from performance‑based access amount
 (1) Subject to subsection (2), the performance‑based method applies for the purposes of issuing a tariff rate quota certificate from the performance‑based access amount in relation to a consignment of UK FTA beef for export to the United Kingdom.
Note: The performance‑based method is set out in Part 5 of Chapter 2.
 (2) For the purposes of applying the performance‑based method for the initial quota year and the quota year following the initial quota year:
 (a) disregard the requirement that an eligible person must make an application to the Secretary for an allocation of an amount of tariff rate quota entitlement from the performance‑based access amount; and
 (b) apply section 52D as if a reference to an applicant were a reference to an eligible person; and
 (c) apply step 4 of the method statement even if the step 2 amount is less than or equal to the performance‑based access amount.

Issuing tariff rate quota certificates from unrestricted access amount
 (3) Subject to subsection (4), the first come, first served method applies for the purposes of issuing a tariff rate quota certificate from the unrestricted access amount in relation to a consignment of UK FTA beef for export to the United Kingdom.
Note: The first come, first served method is set out in Part 1 of Chapter 2.
 (4) For the purposes of applying the first come, first served method to the unrestricted access amount in a quota year, treat a reference to the uncommitted annual access amount in subsection 11(2) and paragraph 11(3)(b) as a reference to the uncommitted unrestricted access amount.
