COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1492/92 of 4 June 1992 amending Regulation (EEC) No 4136/86 on common rules for imports of certain textile products originating in third countries
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 113 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas, by Decision 92/184/EEC (1), the Council approved, on behalf of the Community, Agreements negotiated with a number of supplier countries on trade in textile products;
Whereas, by Regulation (EEC) No 369/92 (2), the Council amended, with effect from 1 January 1992, Regulation (EEC) No 4136/86 on common rules for imports of certain textile products originating in third countries (3);
Whereas on 20 December 1991 the Commission initialled with Brazil an Agreement on trade in textile products for the period from 1 January to 31 March 1992 and whereas, by Decision 92/114/EEC (4), the Council decided to apply it provisionally from 1 January 1992;
Whereas, by Decision 92/233/EEC (5), the Council approved, on behalf of the Community, an Agreement, with effect from 1 January 1992, in the form of an exchange of letters for the period from 1 January to 31 December 1992, which replaces that of 20 December 1991 in the form of an exchange of letters;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 4136/86 applied to textile imports from Brazil until 31 December 1991, but Annex II to Regulation (EEC) No 4136/86, as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 369/92, no longer includes that country;
Whereas it is necessary to amend Regulation (EEC) No 4136/86 to take into account the extension, until 31 December 1992, of the Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Federative Republic of Brazil on trade in textile products, so that the provisions of that Regulation can also be applied to that country,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article1¶

1. the word 'Brazil' shall be added to Annex II;

Done at Luxembourg, 4 June 1992. For the Council
