The extent to which import licences may be issued should therefore be determined by establishing the allocation coefficient to be applied to the quantities requested under the quota in question.\n(4)\nThe above information also shows that in the case of the quotas with serial numbers 09.4189 — 09.4190 applications lodged during the first five working days of September 2007 in accordance with the first subparagraph of Article 13 of that Regulation cover a quantity in husked-rice equivalent less than the quantity available.\n(5)\nIn accordance with Article 15(1) of Regulation (EC) No 2021/2006, the total quantities available for the next subperiod should therefore be laid down,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
