Article 3
For the purpose of the application of Article 1, the Member States shall assist each other administratively. France (which has notified the supply difficulties of seed) shall act as a coordinator of the authorisations to be granted under Article 2, in order to ensure that the total amount does not exceed the maximum quantities as specified in the Annex. Any Member State receiving an application under Article 2 shall immediately notify the coordinating country of the amount covered by the application. The coordinating Member State shall immediately inform the notifying Member State as to whether authorisation of the application would result in the maximum quantity being exceeded.
