Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to the opinion of the Advisory Committee set up by Article 5 of that Regulation,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2819/79 (2), the period of validity of which was last extended and amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3521/82 (3), makes imports of certain textile products originating in certain non-member countries subject to Community surveillance;

Whereas by Regulations (EEC) No 3044/79 (4), (EEC) No 3045/79 (5), (EEC) No 3046/79 (6), and (EEC) No 1782/80 (7), the Commission established Community surveillance of imports of certain textile products originating respectively in Malta, Spain, Portugal and Egypt; whereas those Regulations expire on 31 December 1982;

Whereas the reasons that justified the introduction of the above Regulations are still valid; whereas the said Regulations should therefore be extended for an additional period,
