of 24 October 1984

amending quantitative limits fixed for imports of certain textile products originating in China

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2072/84 of 29 June 1984 on common rules for imports of certain textile products originating in the People's Republic of China (1), and in particular Articles 7, 10 (2) and 18 thereof,

Whereas, by Regulation (EEC) No 2072/84, quantitative limits agreed with China are shared between the Member States for 1984;

Whereas, under Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 2072/84, the allocation of limits among Member States may be adjusted in such a way as to ensure optimum utilization;

Whereas China has asked that the allocation of Community quantitative limits among the Member States be adjusted in order to take account of the trend of trade flows, and to enable suppliers to utilize agreed Community limits more fully;

Whereas, under Article 10 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2072/84, quantitative limits may be increased where it appears that additional imports are required;

Whereas the Appendix to Annex III to Regulation (EEC) No 2072/84 provides that 19 % of certain quantitative limits for Germany, as fixed in that Annex, shall be reserved for use at the Berlin Fair; whereas it has been agreed with China that for 1984, this provision shall not apply to the limit established for category 18;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The quantitative limits for textile products originating in China, as fixed in Annex III to Regulation (EEC) No 2072/84, are hereby amended for 1984 as laid down in the Annex hereto.
