ANNEX VIII

referred to in Article 6 ( 4 )

1 . Should a Member State consider that one of the textile products listed in Annex I is being imported into the Community from the USSR at a price abnormally lower than the normal competitive level and is for this reason causing or threatening to cause serious injury to Community producers of like or directly competing products, the Commission may request consultations with the USSR .

2 . In order to determine whether the price of a textile product is abnormally lower than the normal competitive level , it may be compared with:

— the prices generally charged for like products sold under the ordinary conditions by other exporting countries on the market of the importing country ,

— the prices of like national products at a comparable marketing stage on the market of the importing country ,

— the lowest prices charged by a third country for the same product in the course of ordinary commercial dealings in the three months preceding the request for consultations, and not having led to the adoption of any measure by the Community .

3 . Should agreement not be reached during the consultations referred to in paragraph 1 within a period of 30 days from the date on which consultations are requested by the Commission and pending a mutually satisfactory outcome of the consultations , the Commission may, in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 15 of the Regulation , authorize the Member State concerned temporarily to suspend imports of the products in question .

4. In totally exceptional and critical circumstances , where consignments of products are being imported from the USSR into the Community at prices abnormally lower than the normal competitive level, such as to cause injury which it would be difficult to repair , the Commission may, in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 15 of the Regulation, authorize the Member State concerned temporarily to suspend imports of the product in question pending a solution to be agreed in the course of consultations. The said consultations will be embarked on without delay, and in any case within a period of five days from the date of the Commission's request. Before suspension , the USSR is given 10 working days' notice in order to remedy the situation .
