whereas it should moreover be stipulated that licences are to be issued following a reflection period and where necessary with a flat-rate percentage reduction applied; Whereas for the sake of effective operation of the arrangements made security against import licences of ECU 12 per 100 kilograms should be required; whereas given the inherent risk of speculative use of the quotas precise term of access to them should be set; Whereas under Agreement on Agriculture concluded in the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations (20) the Community undertook to convert the variable agricultural levies into fixed customs duties with effect from 1 July 1995; whereas it is accordingly necessary to provide, as a temporary measure for the period 1 July 1995 to 30 June 1996, for the rate reduction for purposes of the tariff quotas to apply to the ad valorem and specific customs duties set in the Common Customs Tariff; Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal, HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: Article 1 1.
