(b) The aggregate annual duty-free quantities in the table above shall be increased, beginning on the date of entry into force of this Agreement, by the quantity established in the United Kingdom’s Canada-specific WTO tariff quota for meat of swine, fresh, chilled or frozen (cuts of domestic swine, fresh, chilled or frozen, with or without bone, excluding tenderloin presented separately) as reflected in the United Kingdom’s schedule of commitments at the WTO (as attached to G/MA/TAR/RS/570). For greater certainty, the reference to the quantity allocated to Canada applies both before and after certification of the United Kingdom’s schedule of commitments at the WTO. A change to this quantity resulting from the United Kingdom’s action under Article XXVIII of the GATT 1994 shall apply for the purposes of this Agreement from the date on which that change takes effect.
(c) When calculating quantities imported, the conversion factors specified in paragraph 19 shall be utilized to convert Product Weight to Carcass Weight Equivalent.
(d) The United Kingdom shall administer this tariff rate quota, including the additional quantities from the United Kingdom's Canada-specific WTO tariff quota for meat of swine, fresh, chilled or frozen (cuts of domestic swine, fresh, chilled or frozen, with or without bone, excluding tenderloin presented separately) as outlined in subparagraph (b):
(i) on a first-come first-served basis; and
(ii) on a calendar year basis with the full in-quota quantity to be made available on January 1 of each year.
(e) Notwithstanding subparagraph (d), paragraphs 17 and 18 shall apply to this paragraph.
(f) This paragraph applies to the following tariff lines:
0203 12 11, 0203 12 19, 0203 19 11, 0203 19 13, 0203 19 15, 0203 19 55, 0203 19 59, 0203 22 11, 0203 22 19, 0203 29 11, 0203 29 13, 0203 29 15, 0203 29 55, 0203 29 59, 0210 11 11, 0210 11 19, 0210 11 31, and 0210 11 39.
Change of administration system mechanism
17. With respect to the tariff rate quotas set out in paragraphs 13, 14 and 16:
(a) If 75 per cent or more of the annual aggregate quantity is actually imported into the Party under a tariff rate quota in a given year, the Parties shall meet, upon the request of a Party, in the framework of the Committee on Agriculture established under Article 26.2.1 (a) (Specialised committees) in order to promptly address any questions affecting the smooth operation of the tariff rate quota.
(b) If 75 per cent or more of the annual aggregate quantity is actually imported into the Party under a tariff rate quota in a given year for three consecutive years, provided that the Parties agree, the administration of the quota for the following year(s) may be changed to an import licensed basis as outlined in Annex 2-B: Declaration of the Parties concerning Tariff Rate Quota Administration.
(c) If, subsequent to the situation referred to in subparagraph (b), less than 75 per cent of the annual aggregate quantity is actually imported into the Party under a tariff rate quota in a given year for two consecutive years, the Parties may consider returning to a first-come first-served system following consultations between the Parties on the necessity and opportunity of such reversion.
Review clause
18.
(a) With respect to the tariff rate quotas set out in paragraphs 13, 14, and 16, at the end of the phase-in period of any of these tariff rate quotas, or at any other time upon motivated request of a Party, the Parties shall review the operation of the relevant tariff rate quota administration system in light notably of its effectiveness in ensuring quota utilisation, market conditions, and administrative burdens associated with the system for the economic operators and for the Parties.
(b) With respect to the tariff rate quotas set out in paragraphs 13, 14, and 16, the review referred to in subparagraph (a) shall also include the consequences of any tariff rate quota administration modalities agreed with a third country for the same goods in the framework of other trade negotiations involving the Parties and would include the possibility of providing the option to the exporting Party of transitioning to the approach agreed to in another agreement. The conditions of competition in North America will be a necessary part of the review.

Annex 2B
DECLARATION OF THE PARTIES CONCERNING TARIFF RATE QUOTA ADMINISTRATION
Declaration concerning United Kingdom administration for beef and veal, and pork tariff rate quotas under this Agreement
1. The general principle is that tariff rate quota administration should be as conducive to trade as possible. More specifically, it must not impair or nullify the market access commitments negotiated by the Parties; it must be transparent, predictable, minimise transactional costs for traders, maximise fill rates and aim to avoid potential speculation.
Structure of the import licensing system
Quarterly sub-periods with carryover between periods for unused tariff rate quota quantities
2. In each of the four quarters of the marketing year, 25 per cent of the annual tariff rate quota quantity will be made available for licence applications.
3. Any quantities remaining available at the end of one quarter will be automatically rolled over into the subsequent quarter until the end of the marketing year.
Application period for import licences
4. An application for an import licence will be accepted:
(a) for the first quarter, within seven working days beginning on 17 November; and
(b) for the other quarters, within seven working days beginning on the first day of the month which precedes the commencement of the quarter,
and an import licence shall be issued:
(i) for the first quarter, no later than 16 December of the preceding year; and
(ii) for the other quarters, no later than the end of the month in which the licence application was received.
5. If demand for licences during the application period exceeds the quantities available for that quarter, licences will be allocated on a pro-rated basis.
6. If the available quantity for any quarter is not fully allocated during the application period, the remaining quantity will be made available for eligible applicants to apply within seven working days beginning on the first day of each month remaining in that quarter. Applications cannot be made during the last month of the marketing year.
Validity of licences
7. An import licence is valid:
(a) from the date of the beginning of the quarter for which the import licence is issued, or for applications under paragraph 6, the first day of the month following receipt of the licence application; and
(b) for six months from the applicable date in subparagraph (a) or until the end of the marketing year, whichever comes first.
8. Import licences may be used at any United Kingdom customs entry point and for multiple shipments.
Eligibility criteria
9. The eligibility criteria and allocation method should result in the quotas going to those persons that are most likely to use it and must not create barriers to imports.
10. Eligible applicants include historical importers of beef, bison or veal for beef and veal imports and historical importers of beef, bison, veal or pork for pork imports.
11. Wholesalers and accredited meat processors are eligible to apply for the quota.
Securities
Securities tied to import licence applications
12. A security of not more than 95 euro (€) per tonne of beef and 65 euro (€) per tonne of pork will be lodged with the application for a licence.
Transfer of licence and release of security
13. An importer may apply to transfer a licence, provided that the transferee meets the eligibility criteria. Any release of security will be made to the person who lodged the security.
Return of licence
14. Unused licence quantities may be returned before expiration and up to four months prior to the end of the marketing year.
15. All returned quantities will be rolled over to subsequent application periods.
Release of security and release of full security when 95 per cent of imports occur
16. Securities shall be released in proportion to the quantity of goodsactually imported.
17. Once 95 per cent of an importer's individual licence quantity is actually imported the full security shall be released.”
