  "text": "Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 412/2014\nof 23 April 2014\nopening and providing for the administration of Union import tariff quotas for eggs, egg products and albumins originating in Ukraine\nTHE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,\nHaving regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,\nHaving regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007, and in particular points (a), (c) and (d) of Article 187 thereof,\nWhereas:\n(1)\nRegulation (EU) No 374/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council provides for preferential arrangements for 2014 as regards customs duties for the import of certain goods originating in Ukraine. In accordance with Article 3 of that Regulation agricultural products listed in Annex III thereto are to be admitted for import into the Union within the limits of the quotas as set out in that Annex. The quotas referred to in Annex III to Regulation (EU) No 374/2014 are to be administered by the Commission in accordance with Article 184(2)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013.\n(2)\nThe import tariff quotas concerned should be managed through the use of import licences. To this end, Commission Regulation (EC) No 1301/2006 should apply, without prejudice to additional conditions laid down in this Regulation.\n(3)\nCommission Regulation (EC) No 376/2008 should apply to import licences issued in accordance with this Regulation, save where derogations are appropriate.\n(4)\nFor the appropriate administration of the tariff quotas, the security linked to the import licences should be lodged at the time of submission of a licence application.\n(5)\nCommission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1001/2013 has replaced some CN codes in Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 by new CN codes which now differ from those referred to in Regulation (EU) No 374/2014. The new CN codes should therefore be reflected in Annex I to this Regulation.\n(6)\nSince the quotas referred to in Annex III to Regulation (EU) No 374/2014 are open only until 31 October 2014, this Regulation should enter into force as soon as possible.\n(7)\nThe measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the Common Organisation of the Agricultural Markets,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
