Regulation (EC) No 1431/94 should therefore be repealed and replaced by a new regulation.(2)The tariff quotas should be administered on the basis of import licences. For this purpose, the arrangements for submitting applications and the details that should appear on the licence applications and the licences themselves should be specified.(3)Commission Regulation (EC) No 1291/2000 of 9 June 2000 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences and advance fixing certificates for agricultural productsOJ L 152, 24.6.2000, p. 1.
