Whereas certain agricultural products exempted from import levies are already subject to the issue of an import licence; whereas, in the interests of administrative simplification, the import licence should be used as the basis for the system of exemption from import duties; whereas the dual purpose of the import licence requires detailed rules for the issue of the document which are exceptions to the detailed rules normally applicable to import licences;

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88 (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1599/90 (3), lays don, in particular, the detailed implementing rules for import licences;

Whereas the scheme of aid granted in respect of Community products can be administered on the basis of the import licence form, hereinafter called the 'aid certificate';

Whereas the administrative authorities should have at their disposal the necessary instruments to ensure that the supply scheme is used for its proper purpose, namely the regular supply of users and the passing on of the benefits to the local consumer; whereas, to that end, in order to deal with excessive applications which bear no relation to justifiable requirements and which could jeopardize the objectives and smooth operation of the supply arrangements, the competent authorities must, where necessary, be able to define categories of users to whom priority should be given, or to allocate the quantity available within the framework of the supply balance, which may be revised during the course of the financial year;

Whereas the effects of the benefits granted in the form of exemption from import duties and the grant of aid in respect of Community products must be passed on in production costs and in the prices paid by the end user; whereas checks are needed to ensure that the benefits are passed on;

Whereas there should be a system of Community checks on the measures taken by the competent authorities in order to ensure that they are properly implemented; whereas, to that end, provision should be made for periodic communications to the Commission;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee concerned,
