Regulation 7 Quota periodI1

Each period during which a quota applies (“quota period”) commences at the beginning of each date in column 6 of the Quota Table (the “quota open date”) and expires at the end of the corresponding date in column 7 of that Table (the “quota close date”).

A quota period applies between the quota open date and the quota close date as though that period had already commenced on IP completion day and also applies to the period falling between those dates in each year following the year in which IP completion day falls.
