COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 116/83

of 17 January 1983

on arrangements for imports into Ireland of certain textile products originating in the People's Republic of China

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3061/79 of 20 December 1979 on common rules for imports of certain textile products originating in China (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2007/82 (2), and in particular Article 11 (4) and (5) thereof,

Whereas Article 11 of Regulation (EEC) No 3061/79 lays down the conditions under which quantitative limits may be established;

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3664/81 (3), set provisional quantitative limits on imports into certain Community regions, of certain textile products of Chinese origin pending the result of the consultations in progress;

Whereas consultations yielded a mutually acceptable result and it is therefore necessary to set a final quantitative limit for the products of category 13 for the year 1983 and to cancel the provisional quantitative limits.

Whereas the quantities of the products in question exported from China between 1 January 1983 and the date of entry into force of this Regulation must be set off against the quantitative limits which has been introduced for 1983;

Whereas this quantitative limit does not prevent the importation of products covered by it but shipped from China before the date of entry into force of this Regulation;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Textiles Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The importation into Ireland of the product-category originating in China and specified in the Annex hereto shall be subject to the quantitative limit given in that Annex and to the provisions of Article 2.

Article 2

1. Products as referred to in Article 1, shipped from China into Ireland before the date of entry into force of this Regulation and not yet released for free circulation, shall be so released subject to the presentation of a shipment certificate proving that shipment actually took place before that date.

2. All quantities of products shipped from China on or after 1 January 1983 and released for free circulation shall be deducted from the quantitative limits laid down. This quantitative limit shall not, however, prevent the importation of products covered by it, but shipped from China before the date of entry into force of this Regulation.

3. The imports of products exported from China to Ireland from the date of entry into force of this Regulation are subject to the double-checking system established by Article 1 of Annex V to Regulation (EEC) No 3061/79.

Article 3

Regulation (EEC) No 3664/81 is hereby repealed.

Article 4

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

It shall apply until 31 December 1983.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 17 January 1983.
