1  All imports of the above products are under the tariff currently in force, which is below the level bound in Part I, Section I- B of Nicaragua's Schedule XXIX;  the
tariff quotas are therefore not as yet in operation.
2 A tariff quota has been established with a volume exceeding that  determined by the WTO (approximately 2,204,600 quintals), rou ghly what the level of imports
would be were no such restriction applied, and a tariff of 20 per cent, which is less than the bound in-quota tariff of 40 per cent.
