to milk and milk products of the scheme provided for in the Interim Agreement between the Community and the Republic of Slovenia; Whereas the conditions laid down in the above-mentioned Regulations governing the submission of import licence applications, the issue of licences and the other arrangements for the management of the import schemes are almost identical; whereas, in order to simplify the rules and ensure their uniform application to all the schemes, the detailed rules for the different schemes should be set out in a single consolidated Regulation and the above-mentioned Regulations should be abolished; whereas, at the same time, certain technical adjustments should be made to the management arrangements; Whereas, to ensure that the volume of imports is managed correctly, a security should be lodged when import licences are applied for and the lodging of licence applications should be subject to certain conditions, which must be defined; whereas, moreover, the quantities fixed during the year should be staggered and the procedure for allocating licences and the period of validity of licences should be fixed; Whereas all importers in the Community should be guaranteed access to the above-mentioned schemes and the reduced rate of duty should be applied without interruption to all imports of the products in question into all Member States until the quantities provided for have been exhausted; whereas the necessary measures should be taken to ensure efficient Community management of these quantities; whereas, in particular, the danger of speculation requires access to transactions under the schemes in question to be subject to specific conditions; whereas this form of management requires close collaboration between the Member States and the Commission; Whereas, in the interest of clarity, the quantities of products available under the different schemes for the first six months of 1998 should be determined at the same time; whereas these quantities are fixed taking account of the quantities remaining from the previous period and, in the case of imports from the Baltic States, the quantities for which licences have been issued in excess of the quantities available for the third quarter of 1997; Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products, HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
