Allocation coefficients as provided for in Article 25(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006 should therefore be established.\n(3)\nIn the case of product groups and quotas for which the applications lodged are for quantities less than those available, it is appropriate, in accordance with Article 25(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006, to provide for the allocation of the remaining quantities to the applicants in proportion to the quantities applied for. The allocation of such further quantities should be conditional upon the competent authority being notified of the quantities accepted by the operator concerned and upon the interested operators lodging a security.\n(4)\nGiven the time limit for carrying out the procedure for establishing those coefficients, as provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 850/2008, this Regulation should apply as soon as possible,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
