Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

1.

For the period from 1 August to 30 September 2007, the quantitative limit referred to in Article 12(d) of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 shall be 20 000 tonnes, in dry matter, for exports without refund of out-of-quota isoglucose falling within CN codes 1702 40 10, 1702 60 10 and 1702 90 30.

2.

Exports within this quantitative limit shall be allowed for all destinations with exception of the following:

(a)

third countries: Andorra, the Holy See (Vatican City State), Liechtenstein, San Marino, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia;

(b)

territories of EU Member States not forming part of the customs territory of the Community: Gibraltar, Ceuta, Melilla, Communes of Livigno and Campone d’Italia, Heligoland, Greenland, Faeroe Islands and the areas of Cyprus in which the Government of the Republic of Cyprus does not exercise effective control.

3.

Exports of the products referred to in paragraph 1 shall only be allowed where they:

(a)

are obtained by isomerisation of glucose;

(b)

have a fructose content by weight in the dry state of not less than 41 %;

(c)

have a total content by weight in the dry state of polysaccharides and oligosaccharides, including di- and trisaccharides, of not more than 8,5 %.

The dry matter content of isoglucose shall be determined on the basis of the density of the diluted solution in a proportion by weight of one to one or, in the case of products with a very high consistency, by drying.

4.

By way of derogation from the deadline fixed in Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 493/2006, undertakings whose isoglucose production exceeded the threshold referred to in that paragraph may submit, before 30 September 2007, a request that the share of their production of isoglucose which exceeds the above threshold should be considered fully or partially to be produced in excess of the quota.
