| |
(a) appoint a period (beginning on the day appointed by such quota order for the commencement of the first quota period thereunder) to be the first quota period under such quota order, and
|
| |
(b) appoint a specified quantity of goods to which such quota order applies to be the quota for the purposes of this Act in respect of the said first quota period.

| |
(a) appoint a period (beginning at the expiration of the said quota period) to be the next quota period under such quota order, and
|
| |
(b) appoint a specified quantity of goods to which such quota order applies to be the quota for the purposes of this Act in respect of the said next quota period.
|

(3) Whenever the Executive Council by order made under this section appoints a quota, the Executive Council may, if they so think fit, by the same order direct that a specified proportion (in this Act referred to as a special quota) of the said quota shall consist of goods which are shown to the satisfaction of the Revenue Commissioners either (as shall be specified in such order)—
|
| |
(a) to have been manufactured or produced in a specified country, or
|
| |
(b) to have been consigned to the importer from a specified country, or
|
| |
(c) to have been manufactured or produced in a specified country and consigned to the importer from that country.

(4) Whenever the Executive Council has, by order made under this section, appointed a quota in respect of any quota period, the Executive Council may, if they so think fit, by order made before the expiration of such quota period increase such quota by such amount (in this Act referred to as an additional quota) as they think proper.
