It sets out the relevant rules for rice and also lays down the nature and type of information to be notified by Member States to the Commission.\n(2)\nIt is appropriate to include the obligation for Member States to notify the Commission of the quantities of rice covered by licences, as it existed in previous Regulations.\n(3)\nAt the occasion of the amendment of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1237 it is appropriate to align a term used in Article 2(2)(c)(iii) of that Regulation with the customs terminology used in the Union Customs Code and to make a more precise reference to relevant provisions of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council.\n(4)\nDelegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1237 should therefore be amended accordingly.\n(5)\nAs the main reason for amending Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1237 is formally confirming a longstanding notification obligation and given the need to ensure continuity and legal certainty for notifications concerning rice, this Regulation should enter into force on the day following that of its publication,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
