Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 732/2008 of 22 July 2008 applying a scheme of generalised tariff preferences from 1 January 2009 and amending Regulations (EC) No 552/97, (EC) No 1933/2006 and Commission Regulations (EC) No 1100/2006 and (EC) No 964/2007, and in particular Article 11(7) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Commission Regulations (EC) No 2305/2003, (EC) No 969/2006 and (EC) No 1067/2008 lay down specific provisions on the lodging of import licence applications and the issuing of import licences for barley under quota 09.4126, maize under quota 09.4131 and common wheat of a quality other than high quality under quotas 09.4123, 09.4124, 09.4125 and 09.4133.

(6)
In view of the public holidays in 2014, derogations should be made, at certain times, from Regulations (EC) No 2305/2003, (EC) No 969/2006, (EC) No 1067/2008 and (EC) No 1964/2006, Implementing Regulation (EU) No 480/2012 and Regulations (EC) No 828/2009, (EC) No 1918/2006 and (EC) No 341/2007 as regards the dates for lodging import licence applications and issuing import licences in order to ensure compliance with the quota volumes in question.
(7)
Under Article 7d(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 951/2006, export licences for out-of-quota sugar and isoglucose are issued from the Friday following the week during which the licence applications were lodged, provided that no particular measures have since been taken by the Commission.
(8)
Article 3(3) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1518/2003, the second subparagraph of Article 12(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 382/2008, Article 3(3) of Commission Regulation (EU) No 1178/2010 and Article 3(3) of Commission Regulation (EU) No 90/2011 stipulate that export licences are issued on the Wednesday following the week during which the licence applications were lodged, provided that no particular measures have since been taken by the Commission.
(9)
In view of the public holidays in 2014 and the resulting impact on the publication of the Official Journal of the European Union, the period between the lodging of applications and the day on which the licences are to be issued will be too short to ensure proper management of the market. That period should therefore be extended.
(10)
The second subparagraph of Article 14(1) of Commission Regulation (EU) No 1272/2009 stipulates that the Commission must decide within two working days following the notification referred to in Article 13(1) of that Regulation and within five working days following the notification referred to in Article 13(3) of that Regulation.
(11)
In view of the public holidays in 2014 and the resulting impact on the publication of the Official Journal of the European Union, the period for examination of offers will be too short to monitor the quantities offered effectively. That period should therefore be extended.
(12)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,
