THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3925/86 of 16 December 1986 applying generalized tariff preferences for 1987 in respect of textile products originating in developing countries (1), and in particular Article 4 thereof,

Whereas Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 3925/86 provides that preferential tariff treatment shall be accorded, for each category of products subjected to individual ceilings not allocated among the Member States, within the limits of the quantities specified in column 7 of its Annexes I or II, in respect of certain or each of the countries or territories of origin referred to in column 5 of the same Annexes; whereas Article 3 of that Regulation provides that the levying of customs duties may be re-established at any time in respect of imports of the products in question once the relevant individual ceilings have been reached at Community level;

Whereas, in respect of synthetic textile fibres, products of category 41, the relevant ceiling amounts to 9,1 tonnes; whereas on 4 September 1987 imports of the products in question into the Community, originating in Thailand, a country covered by preferential tariff arrangements, reached and were charged against that ceiling;
