This Regulation provides for management through import licences, for which applications are submitted monthly.\n(3)\nCommission Regulation (EC) No 2454/93 of 2 July 1993 laying down provisions for the implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code codifies the management rules for tariff quotas designed to be used following the chronological order of dates of customs declarations and for surveillance of preferential imports.\n(4)\nWith a view to simplification and given the small volume of the tariff quota for oat grains otherwise worked falling within CN code 1104 22 98, Regulation (EC) No 2454/93 should be applied to the management of this quota from the 2005/06 marketing year on, and Regulation (EC) No 2369/96 should be repealed. For administrative reasons a new serial number must be introduced for the quota in question.\n(5)\nArticle 9(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 provides for an exemption from the requirement to submit an import licence for products having no significant appreciable impact on the supply situation of the cereals market. The Community annually imports an average of 6 000 tonnes of oat grains otherwise worked falling within CN code 1104 22 98. This involves a limited quantity of very specific products for industrial use, with no impact on the cereals market. The exemption from the import licence requirement provided for in Article 9(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 can therefore be applied.\n(6)\nThe measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
