COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3295/92 of 12 November 1992 on arrangements for imports into Italy, Denmark, Greece, Spain and Portugal of certain textile products (category 13) originating in the People's Republic of China

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2135/89 of 12 June 1989 on common rules for imports of certain textile products originating in China (1), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3734/91 (2), and in particular Article 12 thereof,

Whereas Article 12 of Regulation (EEC) No 2135/89 lays down the conditions under which quantitative limits may be established; whereas imports into the Community of certain textile products (category 13) specified in the Annex hereto and originating in China have exceeded the level referred to in Article 12 (2);

Whereas imports of these products into Germany, Benelux, Ireland, France and the United Kingdom are already subject to regional quantitative limits for the years 1989 to 1992 by Regulation (EEC) No 2135/89;

Whereas, in accordance with Article 12 (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 2135/89 on 29 September 1992, China was notified of a request for consultations;

Whereas, pending a mutually satisfactory solution, the imports into Italy, Denmark, Greece, Spain and Portugal of products falling within category 13 have been subjected to provisional limits for the period 29 September to 28 December 1992 by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3112/92 (3);

Whereas, as a result of consultations held on 19, 20, 21 and 22 October 1992 it was agreed to submit the textile products of category 13 to a quantitative limit for the period 29 September to 31 December 1992;

Whereas Article 12 (13) ensures that the quantitative limits are observed by means of a double-checking system in accordance with Annex V to Regulation (EEC) No 2135/89;

Whereas the products in question exported from China between 29 September and 28 December 1992 must be imputed to the quantitative limits introduced for the period 29 September to 31 December 1992;

Whereas these quantitative limits should not prevent the importation of products covered by them shipped from China before the date of entry into force of Regulation (EEC) No 3112/92;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article1¶
