COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 2768/83

of 30 September 1983

on arrangements for imports into the United Kingdom of woven fabrics of cotton (category 2) originating in Indonesia

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3589/82 of 23 December 1982 on common rules for imports of certain textile products originating in third countries (1), and in particular Article 11 thereof,

Whereas Article 11 of Regulation (EEC) No 3589/82 lays down the conditions under which quantitative limits may be established; whereas imports into the United Kingdom of woven fabrics of cotton (category 2) originating in Indonesia have exceeded the level referred to in paragraph 3 of the said Article;

Whereas, in accordance with paragraph 5 of the said Article 11 of Regulation (EEC) No 3589/82, Indonesia was notified on 1 October 1983 of a request for consultations;

Whereas, pending a mutually satisfactory solution, the Commission has requested Indonesia to limit, for a provisional period of three months from the date of notification of the request for consultations, exports of products of category 2 to the United Kingdom at 161 tonnes;

Whereas, pending the outcome of the requested consultations, a quantitative limit identical to that requested of the supplier country should be applied provisionally to imports of the category of products in question;

Whereas paragraph 13 of the said Article provides for compliance with the quantitative limits to be ensured by means of a double-checking system in accordance with Annex VI to Regulation (EEC) No 3589/82;

Whereas the products in question exported from Indonesia between 1 October 1983 and the date of entry into force of this Regulation must be set off against the quantitative limit which has been introduced;

Whereas this quantitative limit should not prevent the importation of products covered by it and shipped from Indonesia 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 Textile Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Without prejudice to the provisions of Article 2, imports into the United Kingdom of the category of products originating in Indonesia specified in the Annex hereto shall be subject to the provisional quantitative limit given therein until 31 December 1983.

Article 2

1. Products as referred to in Article 1, shipped from Indonesia to the said Member States 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 bill of lading or other transport document proving that shipment actually took place before that date.

2. Imports of such products shipped from Indonesia to the said Member States after the entry into force of this Regulation shall be subject to the double-checking system described in Annex VI to Regulation (EEC) No 3589/82.

3. All quantities of such products shipped from Indonesia to the said Member States on or after 1 October 1983 and released for free circulation shall be deducted from the quantitative limits laid down. This provisional limit shall not, however, prevent the importation of products covered by it but shipped from Indonesia before the date of entry into force of this Regulation.

Article 3

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, 30 September 1983.
