Proposition om godkännande av frihandelsavtal

m.m. mellan EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien

1¶Inledning

Den politiska omvandling, som inleddes i Central- och Östeuropa under år 1989, karakteriserades för Bulgariens del av en långsam och relativt fredlig avveckling av det kommunistiska systemet.

I Bulgarien är man väl medveten om det starka sambandet mellan vidareutveckling av den nyvunna demokratin och reformering av samhällsekonomin på grundval av marknadsekonomi. Liksom i de andra central- och östcuropceiska länderna är denna reformprocess smärtsam och för med sig stora ekonomiska och sociala problem. Att Bulgarien och de andra länderna i denna del av Europa snabbt inlemmas i det västeuropeiska ekonomiska samarbetet har således väsentlig betydelse för systemskiftets genomförande. De svåra politiska problem som uppstått i det f.d. Jugoslavien utgör ett hot för såväl Bulgarien som hela Balkanregionen och har givit en ny dimension åt behovet att söka trygga en stabil samhällsutveckling i området.

En fri handel med Västeuropa kan verksamt bidra till en modernisering och utbyggnad av det bulgariska näringslivet. De tidigare dominerande handelsströmmarna mot Central- och Östeuropa har avtagit och är på väg att ersättas av en ökad handel med västvärlden. Genom att underlätta denna process kan de västeuropeiska länderna påskynda utvecklingen i Bulgarien och även för egen del dra nytta av en framväxande marknad.

Bulgarien har ansökt om anslutning till Allmänna tull- och handelsavtalet (GATT). För närvarande har Bulgarien observatörsstatus. En arbetsgrupp för behandling av Bulgariens ansökan har tillsatts. Genom finansiellt och tekniskt bistånd får Bulgarien stöd av andra länder och internationella organisationer för sitt reformarbete, om än inte i önskad omfattning.

Frihandelsavtalet mellan EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien är — tillsammans med det s.k. Europaavtal som Bulgarien nyligen slutit med Europeiska gemenskapen (EG) - ctt viktigt steg för att underlätta handeln med de västeuropeiska länderna. EG har ingått liknande överenskommelser med Polen, Ungern, det dåvarande Tjeckoslovakien och Rumänien.

Detta frihandelsavtal har sitt ursprung i den samarbetsdeklaration som undertecknades vid EFTA:s ministermöte i Geneve i december 1991. Utöver samarbete på en rad områden förklarade sig parterna genom denna deklara- [NS

tion beredda att undersöka möjligheterna att ingå frihandelsavtal. Förhandlingar om ett sådant avtal inleddes under hösten 1992 och avslutades i mars 1993.

Förhandlingarna har resulterat i ett avtal mellan å ena sidan EFTA-staterna, dvs Finland, Island, Liechtenstein, Norge, Schweiz, Sverige och Österrike och, å andra sidan, Bulgarien. Det undertecknades i Geneve den 29 mars 1993.

Avtalets huvudtext på engelska och i svensk översättning jämte bilagor bör fogas till protokollet i detta ärende som bilaga 1.

I ett samförståndsprotokoll (”Record of Understandings”) har vissa tilllämpnings- och tolkningsregler överenskommits mellan parterna. Samförståndsprotokollet bör fogas till protokollet i detta ärende som bilaga 2.

I anslutning till avtalet undertecknades även cn bilateral jordbruksöverenskommelse mellan Sverige och Bulgarien. Den bilaterala jordbruksöverenskommelsen bör fogas till protokollet som bilaga 3.

2¶Förhandlingarnas bakgrund

2.1¶Bulgariens ekonomi och reformprogram

Även om huvudriktningen var densamma, uppvisade utvecklingen i Centraloch Östeuropa efter år 1989 sina speciella särdrag i varje land. För Bulgariens del utmärktes händelseförloppet av det gradvisa och långsamma, men relativt fredliga, avvecklandet av det kommunistiska systemet. Europeiska säkerhetskonferensens (ESK) miljökonferens i Sofia i slutet av år 1989 kom att bli den utlösande faktorn till att Zjivkovregimen, tidigare ansedd som den mest stabila och pålitliga av satellitregimer, föll.

De första fria valen sommaren 1990 ledde inte till det entydiga maktskifte

som oppositionen hade hoppats på. Det visade sig att ”Bulgariska socialist-

partiet”, det omvandlade förutvarande kommunistpartiet, fortfarande hade majoritet. I den grundlagsstiftande nationalförsamling som konstituerades efter valen koncentrerades ansträngningarna på att skapa en ny demokratisk författning. Däremot var det inte möjligt att få till stånd en handlingsförmögen regering för att inleda den ckonomiska reformprocessen. Redan i mars 1990 hade Bulgarien nödgats införa ett moratorium för sin utlandsskuld, vilket har medfört att landet alltjämt är avskurcet från kommersiella krediter.

I december 1990 lyckades man emellertid få till stånd en regering med

brett stöd i nationalförsamlingen, och den ekonomiska politiken anförtroddes åt kompetenta experter. I en djup ekonomisk kris inleddes så i februari 1991 en av de mest radikala och genomgripande ekonomiska omvandlingsprocesserna i Central- och Östeuropa. Den bulgariska reformprocessen uppvisar vissa likheter med den polska men genomfördes under betydligt sämre ckonomiska betingelser och fick mer kännbara konsekvenser. Tonvikten har helt legat på makrockonomiska åtgärder. I sin första fas har den vunnit starkt gillande från Internationella valutafondens (IMF) sida.

Den allmänpolitiska situationen har emellertid inte varit gynnsam för en fortsatt, konsekvent ekonomisk reformpolitik. Vid de allmänna valen i okto-

ber 1991 framkom för första gången en icke-socialistisk majoritet i nationalförsamlingen. Den första regeringen helt utan socialister tillträdde och inledde sin verksamhet med en starkt uttalad vilja att påskynda den ekonomiska reformprocessen. Till en början lyckades man också på kort tid införa ett antal viktiga ckonomiska Jagar. Komplicerade inrikespolitiska förhållanden har emellertid lett till att de nödvändiga strukturella reformerna i ekonomin inte fått den genomslagskraft som de förtjänar. Sammantaget har detta inneburit att den ckonomiska reformprocessen utsatt samhällslivet för utomordentligt svåra omställningsproblem.

En djup recession har följt och förvärrats av sammanbrottet i handeln mellan de central- och östeuropeiska länderna. Bulgariens bruttonationalprodukt (BNP) minskade år 1991 med närmare 20 procent jämfört med före-

gående år. Under år 1992 uppgick nedgången till ca 8 procent. Industripro-

duktionen sjönk med 25 procent under år 1991 och med 22 procent år 1992. Orsakerna till den minskande industriproduktionen är brist på efterfrågan och på insatsvaror. Regeringen har koncentrerat sig på finanspolitiken och börjar först nu planera för omstrukturering av industrin. Turistsektorn visade dock upp ett positivt resultat för år 1992 med en ökning på 18-20 procent, vilket gäller såväl sommar- som vinterturismen.

Ett stort problem är den bulgariska statens finanser. I 1991 års budget reducerades alla subventioner dramatiskt. De utgår dock fortfarande till bl.a. energisektorn och jordbruket. Budgetunderskottet för år 1991 uppgick till 15 procent av BNP och beräknas under år 1992 ha uppgått till ca 10 procent av BNP. Efter en lång politisk kris hösten 1992 tillträdde i december en ny regering av snarast tjänstemannakaraktär. I parlamentet har regeringen stöd hos socialistpartiet, det turk-bulgariska partiet och utbrytare från det borgerliga blocket UDF. Till följd av den långa regeringskrisen kommer budgeten för år 1993 inte att kunna antas förrän längre fram under våren 1993. Det budgetförslag som den tidigare regeringen lade fram omfattar även ett skattepaket med lagförslag om inkomstskatt, mervärdesskatt, accis och vinstbeskattning liksom ny organisation av skatteadministrationen. Ett godkännande av den nya skattelagstiftningen skulle medföra avsevärt ökade inkomster för staten. Inflationstakten under år 1992 minskade till ca 80 procent från ca 350 procent året innan. Fortsatt hög inflation väntas år 1993. Enbart under det första kvartalet 1993 beräknas inflationen ha uppgått till 18 procent, närmast som följd av de sedan årsskiftet avsevärt höjda elpriserna. Valutareserven i utländsk valuta uppgick vid årsskiftet till ca 1 miljard dollar. Växelkursen för den bulgariska valutan levan flyter men har under år 1992 hållits tämligen stabil av nationalbanken.

Antalet registrerade arbetslösa var i december 1992 drygt 565 000 personer, vilket motsvarar ca 16 procent av den arbetsföra befolkningen. Alarmerande är den höga arbetslösheten bland personer under 30 år. Den uppskattas till ca 45 procent. Ökad arbetslöshet förväntas under år 1993 som en följd av bl.a. privatiseringen av företag och omstrukturering av industrin och jordbruket.

Kollektivisering av det bulgariska jordbruket påbörjades under 1950-talet. Enheterna blev med åren allt större och 1970 fanns ca 300 s.k. agro-industriella komplex. Idag uppges antalet statligt ägda företag inom jordbrukssck-

gimen fanns dock en liten men mycket vital privat sektor inom jordbruket, som svarade för en stor andel av livsmedelsförsörjningen.

Den nya bulgariska politiken om jordägande bygger i första hand på restitution till tidigare ägare. Reformens genomförande har föga överraskande visat sig vara förenad med stora administrativa problem och en omstrukturering av huvudparten av de statligt ägda jordbruksföretagen återstår. Ett stort problem är dessa företags omfattande skuldsättning. Med bistånd av Världsbanken liksom med hjälp av EG:s program för tekniskt bistånd till Centraloch Östeuropa, PHARE, har en plan nu utarbetats för att under år 1993 förenkla och påskynda landreformen.

Bulgariens totala utrikeshandel ökade kraftigt från år 1991 till år 1992. Exporten under år 1992 uppgick till 5,1 miljarder dollar, en ökning med 38 procent jämfört med året innan. Bulgariens import ökade med ca 20 procent till 4,6 miljarder dollar under samma period. Detta innebär att Bulgarien för första gången sedan övergången till marknadsekonomi inleddes uppvisade ett handelsbalansöverskott. .

Fram till år 1989 var ca 75 procent av Bulgariens utrikeshandel riktad mot de socialistiska länderna. Sovjetunionen svarade för drygt hälften av detta varuutbyte. Idag är OECD-länderna — särskilt Tyskland, Italien och Grek- Jand — Bulgariens viktigaste handelspartner. År 1992 utgjorde handeln med dessa länder 44,4 procent av den totala utrikeshandeln, jämfört med 29,3 procent år 1991. Det forna östblockets andel av handeln minskade under samma period från 53,7 procent till 39,5 procent. EG- och EFTA-ländernas andel av exporten ökade från knappt 20 procent under år 1991 till 34 procent

år 1992. EG- och EFTA-ländernas andel av importen ökade från 20 procent

till 40 procent under samma period. Därtill har Bulgarien ökat handeln med vissa länder i arabvärlden och Asien.

En liberalisering av priser och handel inleddes under år 1991. Liberaliseringen av utrikeshandeln har dock föranlett regeringen att vidta åtgärder för att skydda den egna produktionen. Ändringar av såväl tulltariffer som import- och exportbestämmelser görs löpande.

En privatiseringslag antogs av nationalförsamlingen i maj 1992. Tillämpningsbestämmelser är under utarbetande. Ett särskilt organ för privatisering av företag värderade till mer än 500 000 dollar har inrättats. Varje enskilt ministerium skall årligen upprätta ett förslag över företag som bör privatiseras. Småskalig privatisering påbörjades år 1991 och intensifierades under året därpå. Privatisering i mindre skala har skett genom samriskföretag med utländska intressenter, s.k. joint ventures. En liberal investeringslag antogs i maj 1992.

Om än fortfarande av begränsad omfattning uppvisar den privata sektorn stor vitalitet och en snabb expansion. Det statistiska underlaget är bräckligt, men minst 10 procent av BNP kommer från denna sektor. Mer än cn tredjedel av de privata småföretagen är involverade i utrikeshandeln och detaljhandeln.

Bulgariens totala utlandsskuld uppgår till ca 13 miljarder dollar, varav ungefär 2 miljarder dollar utgörs av skulder till offentliga fordringsägare. Denna del av skulden omförhandlades inom ramen för Parisklubben — en

informell sammanslutning av stater för överläggningar om offentliga fordringar gentemot länder med betalningsproblem — i maj och november 1992. Förhandlingar pågår med Londonklubben — en informell sammanslutning av långivande banker — beträffande kommersiella bankfordringar uppgående till ca 11 miljarder dollar. I september 1992 beslutade regeringen att börja betala av på räntorna på utlandsskulden med 10 miljoner dollar per månad.

Våren 1991 slöt IMF ett första ettårigt standby-avtal — ett ekonomiskt anpassningsprogram med tillhörande kreditfaciliteter — med Bulgarien. Ett andra avtal löpte fram till mars 1993. I september 1992 uttryckte man från IMF:s sida tillfredsställelse över den ckonomiska utvecklingen i landet och menade att ett nytt utvidgat avtal på tre år skulle kunna undertecknas inom en snar framtid. Höstens inrikespolitiska kris har emellertid lett till att man snarare torde syfta till ytterligare en ettårig förlängning.

Under år 1991 slöt även Världsbanken ett avtal med Bulgarien om ett strukturanpassningslån på 200 miljoner dollar. För att verkställa en andra utbetalning ställer Världsbanken vissa villkor, som t.ex. lagstiftning för kontroll av de kommersiella bankerna enligt Baselkonventionen, ny sociallagstiftning och tillämpningsbestämmelser för privatiseringslagen. Världsbanken har vidare godkänt lån för infrastrukturella projekt i Bulgarien.

Europeiska banken för återuppbyggnad och utveckling (EBRD) hade vid årsskiftet 1992/93 beviljat Bulgarien lån på drygt 131 miljoner dollar för projekt på tele-, energi- och vägområdena.

Ytterligare lån och bistånd har erhållits från EG-länderna liksom inom ramen för den s.k. G 24-gruppen, ett forum bestående av OECD-länderna för samordning av biståndet till länderna i Central- och Östeuropa.

En långvarig regeringskris i Bulgarien under hösten 1992 skapade oro bland internationella långivare. Samtliga partier i nationalförsamlingen liksom nationalbanken har emellertid deklarerat att Bulgarien har för avsikt att fullfölja sina internationella betalningsåtaganden.

2.2¶Bulgariens relationer till EG och EFTA

Redan före omvälvningarna åren 1989-1990 hade de gamla central- och östeuropeiska regimerna sökt närmare samarbete med EG. De första avtalen om handeln mellan EG och enskilda central- och östeuropeiska länder slöts redan under 1960-talet. Under den andra hälften av 1980-talet sökte dessa länder allt närmare kontakter, och nya avtal ingicks.

Länderna i Central- och Östeuropa hade stora förväntningar om mer långtgående förbindelser och på sikt medlemskap i EG. Inom gemenskapen fanns ett politiskt tryck att bygga ut relationerna och samarbetet för att stödja reformprocessen i dessa länder. Dessa faktorer ledde under våren 1990 fram till förslag om associationsavtal av en karaktär som EG inte tidigare tillämpat. Avtalen har fått benämningen Europaavtal.

EG inledde förhandlingar om sådana avtal med Polen, det dåvarande Tjeckoslovakien och Ungern vid årsskiftet 1990/91. Avtalen undertecknades i december 1991 och är i väntan på ratificering provisoriskt i kraft sedan den 1 mars 1992.

I maj 1992 fick EG-kommissionen mandat att förhandla med Bulgarien 6

och även Rumänien. Förhandlingarna mellan EG och Bulgarien respektive Rumänien påbörjades under sommaren 1992 och avslutades före årsskiftet. Ett Europaavtal med Bulgarien undertecknades den 8 mars 1993, medan undertecknandet av avtalet med Rumänien ägde rum den 1 februari. Samtidigt undertecknades s.k. interimsavtal, vilka planeras träda i kraft under våren i väntan på att Europaavtalen skall ratificeras.

Europaavtalen med de båda länderna innehåller förutom bestämmelser om fri handel med industriprodukter och lättnader i handeln med jordbruksvaror också överenskommelser om politisk dialog, arbetskraftens rörlighet, industriellt och tekniskt samarbete, kulturutbyte m.m. Medlemskap i EG uppställs som det långsiktiga målet för samarbetet. Ett nytt och viktigt grundelement i Europaavtalen med Bulgarien och Rumänien utgörs av parternas åtaganden att respektera mänskliga rättigheter för personer som tillhör minoriteter.

Parallellt med EG:s förberedelser inför förhandlingarna med Bulgarien och Rumänien undertecknade EFTA-staterna samarbetsdeklarationer med de båda länderna i december 1991. Förutom beredvillighet till samarbete på en rad områden förklarade sig parterna införstådda med att undersöka möjligheterna att ingå frihandelsavtal. Förhandlingar om ett sådant avtal mellan EFTA-länderna och Bulgarien inleddes i november 1992 och avslutades i mars 1993. Avtalet undertecknades den 29 mars 1993 och avses träda i kraft den 1 juli 1993. :

Liksom i förhandlingarna med de andra länderna i Central- och Östeuropa har varje enskild EFTA-stat, parallellt med de multilaterala förhandlingarna om frihandelsavtal, förhandlat om bilaterala jordbruksöverenskommelser. Dessa överenskommelser är av begränsad omfattning och innebär för Sveriges del vissa smärre tullmedgivanden. Den bilaterala jordbruksöverenskommcelsen mellan Sverige och Bulgarien återkommer jag till i det följande.

3¶Sveriges ekonomiska förbindelser med

Bulgarien

Sveriges export till Bulgarien minskade i slutet av 1980-talet, men ser nu ut att återhämta sig något. År 1992 uppgick exporten till Bulgarien till 254 miljoner kronor, vilket innebar en uppgång med 25 procent i jämförelse med år 1991, då motsvarande siffra visade 203 miljoner kronor. Även den svenska importen från Bulgarien har ökat på senare år, från 88 miljoner kronor år 1991 till 96 miljoner år 1992. Trots att dessa siffror visar på cn uppgång av både export och import, utgör Sveriges handel med Bulgarien mindre än en promille av Sveriges totala utrikeshandel.

Exporten till Bulgarien består i första hand av järn- och stålprodukter, maskiner och apparater samt lastbilar. Importen från Bulgarien domineras av livsmedel. maskiner och apparater.

Ett 30-tal svenska företag har lokala representanter i Bulgarien, varav några är synnerligen aktiva. Svenska företag har hittills investerat i ringa omfattning I Bulgarien.

Sverige har sedan år 1975, efter beslut av riksdagen (prop. 1974:176, bet. 1974:SkUS58, rskr. 1974:342), givit Bulgarien begränsade tullpreferenser inom ramen för det s.k. GSP-systemet enligt förordningen (1987:1285) om tullfrihet för varor från utvecklingsländerna (u-landsförordningen). Frihandelsavtalet innebär en utvidgning av den tullfrihet Bulgarien tidigare åtnjutit på den svenska marknaden i fråga om industrivaror, medan varuomfattningen för jordbruksprodukter i stort sett är densamma som den Bulgarien hade genom GSP-systemet.

Handeln mellan Sverige och Bulgarien regleras formellt i ett bilateralt handelsavtal från år 1980. För det ekonomiska, industriella och tekniska samarbetet gäller ett avtal undertecknat år 1970. Vidare finns ett dubbelbeskattningsavtal från år 1988. Förhandlingar om ett investeringsskyddsavtal

pågår.

Exportkreditnämnden (EKN) upphörde med all garantigivning i mars 1990 i samband med att Bulgarien ställde in sina betalningar till utlandet. Någon ändring av EKN:s policy mot Bulgarien har sedan dess inte ägt rum.

Ett skuldkonsolideringsavtal undertecknades mellan Sverige och Bulgarien i november 1992 i enlighet med Bulgariens uppgörelse i Parisklubben.

I en gemensam aktion av G 24-gruppen gjorde Sverige år 1991 en utfästelse om finansiellt stöd till Bulgarien på 14,5 miljoner ECU (ca 20 miljoner dollar) som betalningsbalansstöd. Ett avtal om detta lån undertecknades i december 1992. Kompletterande lån har ställts i utsikt. Sverige bidrog vidare i en samfälld G24-insats under år 1992 med 6 miljoner kronor i energibistånd för att höja säkerheten vid det bulgariska kärnkraftverket Kozlodui.

4¶Frihandelsavtalet mellan EFTA-staterna och

Bulgarien

Avtalet mellan EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien är uppbyggt efter samma mönster som de redan ingångna avtalen med det dåvarande Tjeckoslovakien och Polen. En skillnad är dock att man med EG:s Europaavtal med Bulgarien som förebild även inkluderar rättigheter för personer som tillhör minoriteter, när man i avtalets inledning talar om demokrati och mänskliga rättigheter.

Genom avtalet skapas ett frihandelsområde mellan Bulgarien och de sju EFTA-staterna, inom vilket handelshinder avskaffas för industrivaror. Samma gäller i huvudsak för fisk och andra marina produkter, samt industriellt tillverkningsskydd för ett antal bearbetade jordbruksprodukter vid import till Bulgarien från EFTA-staterna.

1 avtalet eftersträvas att i möjligaste mån uppnå samma eller likartad reglering av handeln som i Europaavtalet mellan Bulgarien och EG. Detta gäller främst tidtabellerna för avskaffande av tullar och andra handelshinder. Ända sedan förhandlingarna inleddes var det förutsett att tullavtrappningen skulle ske asymmetriskt. Detta innebär att EFTA-staterna — liksom EG cenligt Europaavtalet — avvecklar sina tullar i en snabbare takt än Bulgarien. I enlighet härmed kommer EFTA-staterna att avskaffa huvuddelen av sina

tullar redan vid avtalets ikraftträdande. Undantag görs endast för vissa tekovaror samt järn och stål. För dessa produkter kommer tullarna att vara helt avskaffade den 1 januari 1997 (järn och stål) resp. den 1 januari 1999 (teko).

Bulgarien avvecklar å sin sida tullar och handelshinder enligt samma schema gentemot såväl EG som EFTA-staterna. Varorna är indelade i tre kategorier, för vilka tullarna avskaffas antingen vid avtalets ikraftträdande, under de fem första åren eller stegvis fram till den 1 januari 2002, då alla tullar för industrivaror skall vara avskaffade.

Även i andra hänseenden än beträffande tidtabellen för avvecklingen av tullar är det naturligt att samma eller likartade regler gäller i relationerna mellan EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien som mellan EG och Bulgarien. Detta är fallet för bl.a. skyddsklausulerna och de bestämmelser som gäller för att Bulgarien vid behov skall kunna skydda nystartade industrier samt för att underlätta den industriella strukturomvandlingen i detta land.

I samförståndsprotokollet förklarar parterna att man skall undersöka möjligheterna till s.k. regional kumulation mellan Polen, Rumänien, Slovakien, Tjeckien och Ungern för att öka handeln inom Europa. Detta skulle innebära att insatsmaterial, som har sitt ursprung i någon av dessa stater, vid tillverkning av en exportvara skulle få användas obegränsat och utan några speciella krav på bearbetning i tillverkningslandet. Detta är en viktig del i främjandet av en mer utvecklad arbetsfördelning i Europa.

EG:s Europaavtal innehåller som nämnts i det föregående regler för politisk dialog, industriellt och tekniskt samarbete, arbetskraftens rörlighet m.m. och sträcker sig därmed långt utöver EFTA-staternas ram för avtalet med Bulgarien. Liksom i avtalen med Polen, det dåvarande Tjeckoslovakien, Ungern och Rumänien går dock detta avtal ett steg längre än i traditionella frihandelsavtal genom att, utöver själva avvecklingen av handelshinder och bestämmelser om skyddsklausuler, ha med regler om offentlig upphandling och immaterialrätt. En traditionell utvecklingsklausul öppnar dörren till framtida samarbete inom områden som inte täcks av föreliggande avtal. Frihandelsavtalet omfattar 39 artiklar, 13 bilagor, 6 protokoll och en gemensam deklaration.

I ett samförståndsprotokoll (”Record of Understandings”) har vissa tilllämpnings- och tolkningsregler överenskommits mellan parterna. De viktigaste av dessa regler redovisas i det följande i anslutning till den artikel de hänför sig till.

Avtalets huvudsakliga innehåll framgår av följande redogörelse.

Avtalets inledning EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien förklarar inledningsvis att de, åberopande den samarbetsdeklaration som undertecknades i Geneve i december 1991, avser att avskaffa handelshindren sinsemellan och bilda ett frihandelsområde i överensstämmelse med Allmänna tull- och handelsavtalets (GATT) bestämmelser för frihandelsområden. Parterna uttrycker förhoppningen att frihandelsavtalet skall utgöra ett viktigt bidrag till den curopceiska integrationen. De bekräftar sina åtaganden om pluralistisk demokrati grundad på rättssäkerhet, mänskliga rättigheter, inklusive rättigheter för personer som tillhör 9

minoriteter, och grundläggande friheter. Vidare fastslås att ingen bestämmelse i avtalet får tolkas som att parterna befrias från sina förpliktelser enligt andra internationella avtal.

Syften Anikel 1. EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien skall under en övergångsperiod, som slutar den 31 december 2002, stegvis upprätta ett frihandelsområde i enlighet med bestämmelserna i avtalet.

Avtalets syfte är att genom utvidgning av den ömsesidiga handeln främja cen harmonisk utveckling av de ekonomiska förbindelserna mellan EFTAstaterna och Bulgarien och därigenom befordra ökad ckonomisk aktivitet, förbättrade levnads- och sysselsättningsvillkor, ökad produktivitet och ekonomisk stabilitet.

På denna framskjutna plats anges vidare att ett ytterligare syfte med avtalet är att säkerställa rättvisa konkurrensvillkor mellan parterna.

Varuomfattning Anikel 2. Avtalet omfattar samtliga industrivaror, dvs. alla varor som faller under kap. 25-97 i systemet för harmoniserad varubeskrivning och kodificring, med undantag av ett mindre antal varor som anges i bilaga I till avtalet. Vidare ingår vissa bearbetade jordbruksprodukter, vilka återfinns i protokoll A till avtalet. Slutligen omfattas fisk och andra marina produkter enligt bestämmelserna i bilaga II.

Ursprungsregler och tulladministrativt samarbete Anikel 3. Som villkor för tullförmånerna gäller att varorna skall ha sitt ursprung i någon av de avtalsslutande staterna. Reglerna för ursprungsbestämningen återfinns i protokoll B till avtalet. De överensstämmer i princip med de ursprungsregler som gäller enligt frihandelsavtalen mellan EFTA-staterna och EG. Protokoll B definierar begreppet ”ursprungsvaror” samt redogör för förmerna för administrativt samarbete. I protokollet ges möjlighet till kumulation mellan de avtalsslutande staterna. Genom en gemensam deklaration, liksom genom samförståndsprotokollet, ges även utrymme för alt inom ramen för Gemensamma kommittén överväga kumulation med Polen, Ruminien, Slovakien, Tjeckien och Ungern. Genom Protokoll B inrättas en underkommitté för tull- och ursprungsfrågor.

Avveckling av handelshinder Antikel 4. Inga nya importtullar eller avgifter med motsvarande verkan skall införas i handeln mellan EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien.

Vid avtalets ikraftträdande skall EFTA-staterna avveckla alla importtullar och avgifter med motsvarande verkan för varor som har sitt ursprung i Bulgarien. Undantag görs endast för vissa textil- och konfektionsvaror (Sverige, 10

Norge och Österrike) och för varor som faller under Europeiska kol- och stålgemenskapen (Sverige och Österrike). Dessa undantag specificeras i bilaga II till avtalet. Importtullar och avgifter med motsvarande verkan som gäller för dessa varor skall avvecklas stegvis i enlighet med bestämmelserna i denna bilaga och vara helt avskaffade för varorna under Europeiska koloch stålgemenskapen den 1 januari 1997 och för teko den 1 januari 1999. Avvecklingen sker i samma takt som EG avvecklar sina handelshinder för dessa varor gentemot Bulgarien.

Bulgarien avvecklar å sin sida tullarna för alla varor som har sitt ursprung i en EFTA-stat enligt tidtabellerna i bilaga IV, vilka är uppdelade enligt följande:

1) total tullavveckling vid avtalets ikraftträdande,

2) tullavveckling i tre steg med början den ljanuari 1994 och fram till

den 1 januari 1998,

3) tullavveckling i sex steg med början den1januari 1996 och fram till

den 1 januari 2002.

Detta schema överensstämmer med Bulgariens tullavveckling gentemot EG. I samförståndsprotokollet mellan EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien sägs att denna parallellitet bör bibehållas i sina huvuddrag under hela övergångsperioden. Eventuellt påskyndande av tullavvecklingen mellan EG och Bulga-

rien bör därför så långt möjligt följas av motsvarande åtgärder i relationerna '

mellan EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien. I avtalet (artikel 31) ges Gemensamma kommittén behörighet bl.a. att ändra i tidtabeller och varulistor för tullavtrappningen.

Alla handelshinder skall vara avskaffade den 31 december år 2002. Under övergångsperioden får Bulgarien behålla en importskatt på 10 procent på bilar som är mer än tio år gamla enligt specificeringar i bilaga IV. En 10procentig importskatt på vissa nya bilar skall avskaffas successivt fram till år 1998. Även skatten på parfym och kosmetika skall vara avskaffad före år 1998. Bulgarien har en tullklareringsavgift på 0,5 procent, vilken före den 1 januari 1995 skall ersättas med en avgift som speglar den verkliga kostnaden i samband med förtullning.

I samförståndsprotokollet ingår en tidsbegränsad skyddsklausul för stålprodukter. Den innebär att ifall ökad import av stål från någon avtalspart ger upphov till marknadsstörningar hos en annan part, skall berörda parter inleda konsultationer. I allvarliga fall kan den drabbade parten under vissa förutsättningar tillämpa kvantitativa restriktioner eller andra åtgärder som är förenliga med dess internationella åtaganden samt, för Bulgariens vidkommande, inte utgör något hinder vid förhandlingar om anslutning till GATT. Av protokoll F ull avtalet framgår att även när det gäller tekovaror finns en möjlighet att, i likhet med föreskrifterna i Europaavtalet mellan Bulgarien och EG, vidta åtgärder mot en part som ger upphov till marknadsstörningar. Ifall ändringar görs på denna punkt i Europaavtalet, skall Gemensamma kommittén besluta om motsvarande ändringar i protokoll F. Antikel 5. Som utgångspunkt för tullsänkningarna gäller den mest-gynnadnations-tull som är tillämplig den 31 maj 1993 (bastulldatum). HH

Möjlighet finns att justera bastullarna vid eventuell framtida allmän tullsänkning, särskilt till följd av GATT:s Uruguayrunda. Protokoll A. För livsmedelsprodukter gäller enligt avtalet att avgifter för ingående jordbruksråvaror får uttas inom ramen för ett prisutjämningssystem. Sverige är berctt att fr.o.m. avtalets ikraftträdande slopa tillverkningsskyddet för livsmedelsindustriprodukter. Bulgarien skall fr.o.m. år 1997 gradvis sänka sina importtullar på detta område enligt ett tidsschema som skall fastställas av Gemensamma kommittén under år 1996.

Bilaga II. 1 fråga om handeln med fisk och marina produkter gäller särskilda regler, som medger tullfrihet för en rad sådana produkter med ursprung i EFTA-staterna eller i Bulgarien. Antikel 6. Bestämmelserna i artikel 4 om förbud mot och avveckling av importtullar skall även tillämpas på tullar av fiskal karaktär. Vissa undantag som anges i protokoll C har medgivits för Liechtenstein, Schweiz och Island. Dessa länder får, om de så önskar, ersätta en tull av fiskal karaktär med en intern avgift. Anikel 7. Inga nya exporttullar eller avgifter med motsvarande verkan skall införas i handeln mellan EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien. Redan existerande sådana skall för EFTA-staternas del avskaffas vid avtalets ikraftträdande. Vissa undantag har medgivits för Island enligt bilaga V. Exporttullar eller avgifter med motsvarande verkan på bulgarisk sida skall avskaffas successivt före utgången av år 1998. Anikel 8. Ingen ny kvantitativ importrestriktion eller åtgärd med motsvarande verkan skall införas i handeln mellan parterna. Redan existerande kvantitativa restriktioner och åtgärder med motsvarande verkan skall avvecklas när avtalet träder i kraft. Vissa undantag har medgivits för Österrike och Island enligt bilaga VI. Anikel 9. Ingen ny kvantitativ exportrestriktion eller åtgärd med motsvarande verkan skall införas i handeln mellan parterna. Redan cxisterande kvantitativa restriktioner och åtgärder med motsvarande verkan skall avvecklas när avtalet träder i kraft. Vissa undantag för EFTA-staternas del anges i bilaga VII till avtalet och för Bulgariens del i bilaga VIII. Sverige bibehåller vissa restriktioner beträffande järn- och stålskrot.

I samförståndsprotokollet har parterna kommit överens om att göra undantag från denna artikel till föremål för en översyn efter ikraftträdandet av EES-avtalet. Antikel 14. Parterna förbinder sig att inte vidta någon åtgärd av intern fiskal natur, som innebär diskriminering mellan varor med ursprung i en EFTA-stat och motsvarande varor med ursprung i Bulgarien.

Övriga bestämmelser avseende varuutbytet Anikel 12. EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien skall underrätta varandra, på tidigast möjliga stadium, om förslag till tekniska föreskrifter och ändringar i

dessa som de avser utfärda. Förfarandet för informationsproceduren framgår av bilaga IX till avtalet. Anikel 13. Frihandelsavtalet omfattar i princip endast industrivaror. Parterna förklarar sig dock beredda att främja en harmonisk utveckling av handeln med jordbruksprodukter. För att uppnå detta har överenskommelser ingåtts mellan Bulgarien och varje enskild EFTA-stat om åtgärder för att underlätta handeln med jordbruksvaror. Den överenskommelse som ingåtts mellan Sverige och Bulgarien återkommer jag till (avsnitt 5). Anikel 15. En viktig förutsättning för att frihandeln skall äga rum utan störningar är att betalningar som avser handeln kan ske utan hinder. I avtalet föreskrivs att sådana betalningar inte skall vara underkastade några restriktioner. Vidare skall parterna avhålla sig från restriktioner i fråga om krediter för kommersiella transaktioner.

Fram till dess att den bulgariska valutan nått full konvertibilitet förbehåller sig Bulgarien dock rätten att tillämpa valutarestriktioner i samband med kort- och medetfristiga krediter i den utsträckning detta är tillåtet enligt Bulgarien status i IMF. Sådana restriktioner får ej tillämpas på ett diskrimincrande sätt.

Konkurrensregler m.m. Antikel II. De avtalsslutande parterna skall säkerställa att statliga handelsmonopol anpassas på sådant sätt att ingen diskriminering med avseende på upphandling och marknadsföring föreligger mellan medborgare i EFTA-staterna och i Bulgarien. Vissa undantag för Schweiz, Liechtenstein, Island och

Österrike framgår av protokoll D till avtalet.

Antikel 16. Den stora ekonomiska betydelsen av tillträde till offentlig upphandling gör att parterna ser en effektiv liberalisering av sina respektive marknader för offentlig upphandling som ett viktigt mål.

Efter avtalets ikraftträdande skall EFTA-staterna ge företag från Bulgarien tillträde till upphandlingsförfaranden på sina respektive marknader cenligt den överenskommelse om statlig upphandling som nu är i kraft inom ramen för GATT. Bulgarien skall, med hänsyn till omstrukturcringen och utvecklingen av sin ckonomi, stegvis säkerställa att företag från EFTA-staterna får tillträde enligt samma principer till upphandlingsförfaranden på den bulgariska marknaden.

Så snart som möjligt efter ikraftträdandet skall parterna inom ramen för samarbetet i en gemensam kommitté, som upprättas enligt artikel 27, vidareutveckla upphandlingsreglerna så att fritt tillträde och icke-diskriminering säkerställs mellan leverantörer från parterna. Artikel 17. Det är idag vanligt att frihandelsavtal och andra avtal om handelsrelationer mellan stater innehåller bestämmelser om skydd för immateriella rättigheter. Genom denna artikel förpliktar sig parterna att ge och säkerställa ett icke-diskriminerande skydd för de rättigheter som hör till den immateriella äganderätten, i synnerhet för upphovsrätt, innefattande datorprogram, databaser och närstående rättigheter, varumärken, geografiska ur-

samt för skydd av företagshemligheter. Dessa områden liksom särskilda skyldigheter finns upptagna i bilaga X.

Parterna förpliktar sig vidare att uppfylla de materiella bestämmelserna i de multilaterala överenskommelser som angetts i bilaga X. De lovar också att i möjligaste mån ansluta sig till multilaterala överenskommelser som berör den immateriella äganderätten. Arnikel 18. Kartellsamarbete och missbruk av dominerande marknadsställning från ett eller flera företags sida skall anses vara oförenligt med avtalet i den mån sådana förfaranden hindrar, begränsar eller snedvrider konkurrensen i handeln mellan parterna. Skyddsåtgärder mot dylika konkurrensbegränsande affärsmetoder får vidtas i enlighet med bestämmelserna i artikel 25. | Anikel 19. Statsstöd som snedvrider konkurrensen genom att gynna vissa företag eller viss produktion är, i den utsträckning handeln kan påverkas, oförenligt med frihandelsavtalet. Bedömningen av huvudvida förfaranden strider mot avtalets regler skall baseras på de kriterier som anges i bilaga XI. Om en part anser ett visst förfarande vara oförenligt med artikeln får den vidta lämpliga åtgärder i enlighet med bestämmelserna i artikel 25 under förutsättning att åtgärderna inte strider mot andra internationella avtal som in-

gåtts av någon part.

I syfte att främja de ckonomiska reformerna och den ekonomiska utvecklingen får dock Bulgarien enligt samförståndsprotokollet tillfälligt använda sig av stöd som går utöver vad som är medgivct för EFTA-staterna under förutsättning att detta stöd är tillåtet i handeln mellan Bulgarien och EG.

Skyddsåtgärder Antikel 10. Avtalets bestämmelser hindrar inte parterna från att tillämpa sådana förbud eller restriktioner i handeln som grundas på bl.a. hänsyn till allmän moral eller säkerhet, intresset att skydda människors och djurs hälsa eller miljön. Sådana åtgärder får dock inte utgöra ett medel för godtycklig diskriminering eller innefatta en förtäckt begränsning av handeln mellan parterna. Bestämmelser om skydd för miljön förekommer inte i tidigare typer av frihandelsavtal. Anikel 20. Vid dumpning kan, med användande av proceduren i artikel 25, lämpliga motåtgärder vidtas i enlighet med artikel VI i GATT och därtill knutna tillämpningsavtal. Artikel 21. När en vara importeras i sådana ökande kvantiteter och på sådana villkor som förorsakar eller hotar att förorsaka allvarlig skada för viss produktion hos den importerande parten kan denna part vidta lämpliga skyddsåtgärder i enlighet med procedurbestämmelserna i artikel 25. Detsamma gäller om en ökning av importen av en viss vara orsakar allvarliga störningar i en sektor av näringslivet eller allvarlig försämring av det ekonomiska läget inom cen viss region. Antikel 22. Denna särskilda skyddsklausul ger Bulgarien rätt att under vissa 14

förutsättningar införa tullar för en begränsad del av sin import i syfte att skydda nyetablerade industriföretag, vissa industrisektorer under omstrukturering eller sådana sektorer som är utsatta för allvarliga svårigheter. Bestämmelsen ansluter nära till en motsvarande skyddsklausul i Bulgariens Europaavtal med EG.

Användningen av denna klausul är kringgärdad av vissa villkor. En tull får höjas till högst 25 procent av värdet och EFTA-staterna skall alltid behålla en viss preferens i jämförelse med import från tredje länder.

Ytterligare en begränsning är att det totala importvärdet av de varor som är underkastade de särskilda skyddsåtgärderna inte får överstiga 15 procent av den totala importen av industrivaror från EFTA-staterna. Åtgärderna får i princip tillämpas under en period av högst fem år och får inte införas för en viss vara om mer än tre år har gått sedan alla tullar och kvantitativa restriktioner för denna vara avskaffats. Åtgärderna skall upphöra senast vid övergångsperiodens utgång.

Bulgarien skall informera Gemensamma kommittén om varje tullhöjning av detta slag som man avser vidta och skall också lämna en tidsplan för stegvis avveckling med början senast två år efter införandet. Artikel 23. Skulle avvecklingen av handelshindren leda till en allvarlig bristsituation och detta orsakar betydande svårigheter för den exporterande parten får denna vidta lämpliga åtgärder med användande av proceduren i artikel 25. Samma gäller om snedvridning i handeln uppstår till följd av reexport. Antikel 24. I händelse av allvarliga betalningsbalanssvårigheter eller omedelbart hot därom får en part införa tillfälliga restriktioner för handeln i enlighet med GATT:s regler. En part som inför åtgärder enligt denna artikel skall genast underrätta Gemensamma kommittén och, när detta är möjligt, presentera en tidsplan för avvecklingen. Anikel 25. Innan skyddsåtgärder vidtas skall överläggningar först äga rum i Gemensamma kommittén med iakttagande av vissa tidsfrister. Om de påtalade svårigheterna inte lösts inom angiven tid får den berörda avtalsslutande

staten vidta lämpliga åtgärder för att komma till rätta med det påtalade för-

hållandet. För artiklarna 18-19 och 30 (konkurrensregler rörande företag, statsstöd resp. fullgörande av förpliktelser) gäller tre månader. Vad avser artiklarna 20-21 och 23 (dumpning, nödåtgärder vid import av vissa varor resp. recxport och allvarliga bristsituationer) är tidsfristen trettio dagar.

Övriga parter skall omedelbart underrättas om de skyddsåtgärder som vidtapits. Åtgärdernas omfattning och varaktighet skall begränsas till vad

som är absolut nödvändigt. I första hand skall sådana åtgärder vidtas som

medför den minsta störningen i tillämpningen av avtalet. Åtgärder som Bulgarien vidtar mot ett förfarande eller en underlåtenhet från cen EFTA-stats sida, får endast påverka handeln med denna stat.

När exceptionella förhållanden gör föregående samråd omöjligt får den berörda parten i de situationer som avses i artiklarna 20, 21 och 23 samt ifråga om statsstöd som har direkt inverkan på handeln mellan parterna, utan dröjsmål vidta de provisoriska åtgärder som är absolut nödvändiga för

lämnas utan dröjsmål och samråd skall så snart som möjligt äga rum i Gemensamma kommittén. |

Härutöver har parterna i samförståndsprotokollet kommit överens om att överväga om skiljeförfarande kan vara en lämplig metod att lösa tvister.

Artikel 26. Avtalets bestämmelser hindrar inte en part från att vidta åtgärder

som den anser nödvändiga med hänsyn till väsentliga säkerhetsintressen eller till uppfyllandet av internationella förpliktelser eller genomförandet av sin nationella politik. I de senare fallen kan det vara fråga om handel med vapen och krigsmateriel eller icke-spridning av biologiska och kemiska vapen eller kärnvapen.

Antikel 31. Om en part anser att den andra parten har försummat att fullgöra en förpliktelse enligt avtalet, kan lämpliga åtgärder vidtas enligt proceduren i artikel 25.

Utvecklingsklausul Artikel 29. Om det föreligger ett gemensamt ekonomiskt intresse, öppnar avtalet möjlighet att utvidga samarbetet till områden som inte täcks av avtalet. Förslag härom skall tillställas parterna och närmare studeras i Gemensamma kommittén.

Av samförståndsprotokollet framgår att parterna med jämna mellanrum skall diskutera möjligheterna att utvidga handeln till att omfatta även andra områden än varor.

Avtalets förvaltning Artiklarna 27 och 28. Tillämpningen av avtalet skall övervakas och administreras av en gemensam kommitté. Kommittén får besluta om ändringar i vissa av avtalets bilagor, bl.a. vad gäller ursprungsregler och tidtabeller för tullavtrappningen. I andra frågor får kommittén avge rekommendationer. Kommittén skall uttala sig enhälligt. Gemensamma kommittén skall sammanträda när det är nödvändigt, dock minst en gång om året. Varje avtalsslutande part kan begära att möte hålls.

Slutbestämmelser Antiklarna 31-39. I avtalets avslutande artiklar finns bl.a. regler för ändringar i avtalet samt om anslutning och uppsägning. Sveriges regering är depositarie. Artikel 32. I denna artikel fastslås att avtalet gäller handeln mellan å ena sidan EFTA-staterna och å andra sidan Bulgarien. Däremot är avtalet inte tiltlämpligt på det inbördes förhållandet mellan EFTA-staterna, såvida detta inte uttryckligen stadgas i avtalet.

Vidare klargörs förhållandet till det redan existerande bilaterala frihandelsavtalet mellan Finland och Bulgarien, enligt vilket handeln mellan de båda länderna redan är fri från tullar och andra handelshinder. Bilaga XII

till avtalet innehåller vissa särregler som gäller mellan Finland och Bulgarien. Anikel 38. Ikraftträdande förutses ske den 1juli 1993 mellan de signatärstater som då deponerat sina ratifikationsinstrument, förutsatt att Bulgarien är en av dessa stater. För de stater som deponerar sina ratifikationsinstrument efter detta datum, träder avtalet i kraft den första dagen i andra månaden efter depositionen. I artikeln medges att avtalet kan tillämpas provisoriskt, om ratifikationsproceduren blir försenad.

Avtalet föranleder för närvarande ingen lagstiftning.

5¶Bilaterala jordbruksöverenskommelsen mellan Sverige och Bulgarien

De bilaterala jordbruksförhandlingarna har resulterat i separata jordbruksöverenskommelser mellan Bulgarien och EFTA-staterna Sverige, Finland, Island, Norge, Schweiz och Österrike. Varuomfattningen liksom handelsförmånerna varierar i de sex överenskommelserna.

Sverige har i detta sammanhang erbjudit Bulgarien tullförmåner för bl.a. vissa frukter, bär och grönsaker samt en avgiftsfri kvot för fårost. Inom överenskommelsens ram ingår även en utvecklingsklausul.

Till överenskommelsen har fogats särskilda ursprungsregler. Beträffande ikraftträdande är överenskommelsen kopplad till frihandelsavtalet mellan EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien. Överenskommelsen upphör att gälla när frihandelsavtalet sägs upp, men kan även sägas upp separat.

6¶Godkännande av överenskommelserna

Mitt förslag: Frihandelsavtalet mellan EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien

jämte därtill hörande samförståndsprotokoll samt den bilaterala jord-

bruksöverenskommelsen mellan Sverige och Bulgarien skall godkän-

nas.

Skälen för mitt förslag: Att länderna i Central- och Östeuropa snabbt inlemmas I det västeuropeiska ckonomiska samarbetet är av avgörande betydelse för det pågående systemskiftets genomförande. Förbättrade avsättningsmöjligheter i Västeuropa kan verksamt bidra till en lösning av de ekonomiska problem som planekonomin har lämnat efter sig och ersätta den drastiskt minskade exporten till stater inom det forna östblocket.

Frihandelsavtalet mellan EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien är, tillsammans med det Europaavtal Bulgarien slutit med EG, ett viktigt steg i denna riktning. På längre sikt kan Bulgarien på vissa områden utvecklas till en marknad där svenska exportprodukter kan få större avsättningsmöjligheter än i nuläget. Avtalet undanröjer den diskriminering som svenska företag skulle 17

2 Riksdagen 1992193. 1 saml. Nr 212. Del I

ha mött på den bulgariska marknaden i förhållande till de preferenser företag i EG uppnår genom Europaavtalet. Avtalet skapar ett frihandelsområde, inom vilket alla handelshinder stegvis avskaffas för industrivaror samt för fisk och andra marina produkter tillsammans med det industriella tillverkningsskyddet för vissa bearbetade jordbruksprodukter. Jag förordar därför att avtalet jämte därtill hörande samförståndsprotokoll godkänns.

Den bilaterala jordbruksöverenskommelsen mellan Sverige och Bulgarien medför vissa lättnader i handeln med jordbruksvaror. Efter samråd med jordbruksministern förordar jag att jordbruksöverenskommelsen godkänns.

Ikraftträdandet av dessa avtal gör att det inte längre kan anses finnas skäl att behålla de tullpreferenser som Bulgarien fått del av enligt u-landsförordningen. Jag avser därför föreslå regeringen att dessa tullpreferenser upphävs.

Enligt 5 § lagen (1987:1069) om tullfrihet m.m. får regeringen meddela föreskrifter om tullfrihet, tullnedsättning och återbetalning av tull med anledning av internationella handelsöverenskommelser som Sverige har ingått eller anslutit sig till. Det ankommer därför på regeringen att med stöd av detta bemyndigande meddela de föreskrifter som överenskommelserna föranleder.

7¶Hemställan

Jag hemställer att regeringen föreslår riksdagen att

1. godkänna frihandelsavtalet mellan EFTA-staterna och Bulga-

rien jämte därtill hörande samförståndsprotokoll,

2. godkänna jordbruksöverenskommelsen mellan Sverige och Bul-

garien. Ärendet bör behandlas under innevarande riksmöte.

8¶Beslut

Regeringen ansluter sig till föredragandens överväganden och beslutar att genom proposition föreslå riksdagen att anta de förslag som föredraganden har lagt fram.

Protocol A

PROTOCOL A

CONCERNING PRODUCTS REFERRED TO IN SUB-PARAGRAPH (b)

OF ARTICLE 2

Article 1

1. In order to take account of differences in the cost of the agricultural raw materials incorporated in the goods specified in the Tables referred to in Articles 2 and 3, the Agreement does not preclude:

(i) the levying, upon import, of a variable component

or fixed amount, or the application of internal price compensation measures;

(ii) the application of measures adopted upon export.

2. The price compensation measures shall not exceed the differences between the domestic price and the world market

price of the agricultural raw materials incorporated in the

goods concerned. If, however, the domestic price of an agricultural raw material in the country of origin is lower than the world market price, the importing country may take

this fact into account when calculating the compensatory '

amounts. Moreover, if Bulgaria and any of the EFTA States agree on reductions of variable levies applied to agricultural raw materials, these reductions shall in an appropriate way be taken into account by the State Party in question in the calculation of the compensatory amounts for the processed products concerned.

3. The price compensation systen as outlined in paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not restrict in any way the pursuance of the respective agricultural policies of the EFTA States and of Bulgaria or the taking of any measures under such policies.

Protocol A

Article 2

1. For products listed in Tables I, II, III, IV, and V, the respective EFTA State shall accord to Bulgaria the treatment indicated in those Tables. It is understood that this treatment is the same as accorded to the European Economic Community by 1 January 1993.

2. The treatment to be accorded by Iceland is laid down

in Table VI. The custonms duties are indicated in List 1 and the duties of a fiscal nature in List 2 of the Table. Iceland may, however, replace these duties with other price compensation measures in accordance with paragraphs 1 and 2 of Article 1 but any such action shall not result in a treatment less favourable for products laid down in Table VI than accorded by Iceland to the European Economic Community.

Article 3

1. Notwithstanding Article 4 of the Agreement, the customs duties applied by Bulgaria to products originating in the EFTA States listed in Table VII, from the entry into force of the Agreement until 31 December 1996, will not be higher than those applied on 28 February 1993.

2. Bulgaria shall reduce progressively its import duties on the goods listed in Table VII in accordance with a timetable established by the Joint Committee during 1996. These reductions shall take place as rapidly as under the Europe Agreement between Bulgaria and the European Communities, and with the same product coverage.

3. Bulgaria shall inform the EFTA States at an early stage of any decision to introduce a system of price compensation to take into account differences in the cost of agricultural products incorporateå in the processed products. If such a decision is taken such a system shall be introduced on the same date and with the same provisions and coverage in relation to the EFTA States as will be the case in respect of the European Economic Community. The possibility of the inclusion of concessions, which may be granted by Bulgaria to the European Economic Community on special conditions, will be considered in the Joint Committee.

Protocol A

Article 4

For products listed in Table VIII the provisions of the Agreement shall apply.

Article 5

1. The EFTA States shall notify Bulgaria and Bulgaria the EFTA States of all price compensation measures applied under Article 1 of this Protocol.

2. Bulgaria and the EFTA States shall inform each other of all changes in the treatment accorded to the European Economic Community.

Article 6

The EFTA States and Bulgaria shall review at twoyearly intervals the development of their trade in products covered by this Protocol. A first review shall be held before the end of 1994. In the light of these reviews and taking into account the arrangements between the States Parties to this Agreement and the European Economic Community in this field, the EFTA States and Bulgaria shall decide on possible changes to the product coverage of this Protocol as well as on a possible development of the rules concerning price compensation systens.

rörande varor som avses i artikel 2 punkt b) Protokoll A

Anikel I 1. För att hänsyn skall kunna tas till prisskillnaderna på jordbruksråvaror ingående i de varor som finns upptagna i de listor som hänvisas till i artiklarna 2 och 3, skall avtalet inte hindra:

i) — atten rörlig avgift eller en schablonavgift uttas vid import el-

ler att interna prisutjämningsåtgärder vidtas; ii) att åtgärder vidtas vid export.

2. Prisutjämningsåtgärderna skall inte överstiga skillnaderna mellan det inhemska priset och världsmarknadspriset på de jordbruksråvaror som ingår i varorna i fråga. Om det inhemska priset på en jordbruksråvara i ursprungslandet är lägre än världsmarknadspriset, får dock importlandet ta detta faktum i beaktande vid beräkning av utjämningsbeloppen. Dessutom, om Bulgarien och någon av EFTA-staterna kommer överens om nedsättningar

av rörliga avgifter som utgår på jordbruksråvaror, skall ifrågavarande part

på lämpligt sätt ta hänsyn till dessa nedsättningar vid beräkning av kompensationsbelopp på berörda bearbetade produkter. 3. Det prisutjämningssystem som i huvuddrag angetts i punkterna 1 och 2 skall inte på något sätt hindra att EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien fullföljer sin respektive jordbrukspolitik eller vidtar några åtgärder inom ramen för sådan politik.

Antikel 2 1. För varor upptagna i listorna I, II, III, IV och V skall respektive EFTAstat ge Bulgarien de koncessioner som framgår av dessa listor. Det är underförstått att denna behandling är samma som den som ges till den Europeiska ekonomiska gemenskapen den 1 januari 1993. 2. Den behandling som Island ger finns angiven i lista VI. Tullavgifterna angesi lista 1 och de fiskala tullarna i lista 2. Island får emellertid ersätta tullavgifterna och de fiskala tullarna med andra prisutjämningsåtgärder i enlighet med artikel 1 punkterna 1 och 2 men ingen sådan åtgärd skall resultera i en mindre gynnsam behandling för varor angivna i lista VI än den Island ger den Europeiska ckonomiska gemenskapen.

Arntikel 3 1. Från och med den dag avtalet träder i kraft till och med den 31 december 1996 skall, utan hinder av artikel 4 i avtalet, de tullsatser som tillämpas av Bulgarien för varor med ursprung i EFTA-staterna och som upptas i lista VII inte vara högre än de som tillämpades den 28 februari 1993. 2. För de varor som upptas i lista VII skall Bulgarien gradvis sänka sina im- 149

porttullar enligt ett tidsschema som skall fastställas av Gemensamma kom- = Prop. 1992/93:212 mittén under 1996. Dessa sänkningar skall äga rum minst lika snabbt som Protokoll A enligt Europaavtalet mellan Bulgarien och de Europeiska gemenskaperna och med samma varuomfattning. 3. Bulgarien skall informera EFTA-staterna på ett tidigt stadium om varje beslut att införa ett prisutjämningssystem som tar hänsyn till kostnadsskillnader för jordbruksprodukter som ingår i de bearbetade varorna. Om ett sådant beslut fattas skall ett dylikt system införas vid samma datum och med samma bestämmelser och varuomfattning i relation till EFTA-staterna som blir fallet beträffande Europeiska ckonomiska gemenskapen. Möjligheten att inkludera de koncessioner som Bulgarien givit till Europeiska eckonomiska gemenskapen på speciella villkor skall beaktas i Gemensamma kommittén.

Arntikel 4 Bestämmelserna i avtalet skall tillämpas på de varor som upptagits i lista VII.

Anikel 5 1. EFTA-staterna skall meddela Bulgarien och Bulgarien skall meddela EFTA-staterna alla prisutjämningsåtgärder som tillämpas i enlighet med artikel 1 i detta protokoll. 2. Bulgarien och EFTA-staterna skall informera varandra om alla ändringar 1 den behandling som ges den Europeiska ekonomiska gemenskapen.

Anikel 6 EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien skall vartannat år granska utvecklingen av sin handel med varor som omfattas av detta protokoll. En första granskning skall ske innan 1994 års utgång. I ljuset av dessa granskningar och med beaktande av avtalen mellan de avtalsslutande parterna och den Europeiska ekonomiska gemenskapen på detta område skall EFTA-staterna och Bulgarien besluta om eventuella ändringar beträffande de varor som omfattas av detta protokoll liksom om eventuell utveckling av prisutjämningssystemens regler.

2. In this Article, the term "customs duty" also means charges having an effect equivalent to customs duty.

ARTICLE 24

1. Where, by virtue of this Agreement, imports into an EFTA State are to be treated differently from imports covered by the EFTA Convention, the treatment provideå for by this Agreement shall be applied to all products which are accompanied by evidence of origin referred to in paragraph 1 of Article 8, issued or made out in Bulgaria, or by any such evidence of origin issued in an EFTA State and bearing the expression "EFTA-Bulgaria Trade".

2. An exporter in an EFTA State or his representative shall enter the expression "EFTA-Bulgaria Trade" on the evidence of origin in trade between EFTA States in cases where products have obtained their originating status by virtue of this Agreement by use of materials originating in Bulgaria.

3. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 1, products

originating in an EFTA State which are re-exported from Bulgaria, shall benefit at import into an EFTA State from treatment equal to that which they would have received had they been sent directly from one EFTA State to another. The products must be in the same state or have undergone no working or processing in Bulgaria going beyond that referred to in paragraph 5 of Article 5. This treatment will be granted only upon submission to the customs authorities of the importing EFTA State of an EUR.1 certificate, issued by the appropriate custons office in Bulgaria, in which the expression "Application Article 24.3" has been inserted and authenticated by the stamp of the said office.

ANNEX I

EXPLANATORY NOTES

Note 1 - Article 1

The tern "State Party to this Agreement" shall also cover the territorial waters of this State.

Vessels operating on the high seas, including factory ships, on which the fish caught is worked or processed shall be considered as part of the territory of the State Party to this Agreement to which they belong provided that they satisfy the conditions set out in Explanatory Note 4.

Note 2 —- Articles 1, 2 and 4

The conditions set out in Article 1 relative to the acquisition of originating status must be fulfilled without interruption in a State Party to this Agreement except in so far as provided for in Article 2.

If originating products exported from a State Party to

this Agreement to another country are returned, except as provided for in Article 2, they must be considered as nonoriginating unless it can be demonstrated to the

satisfaction of the customs authorities that:

- the goods returned are the same goods as those

exported, and

- they have not undåergone any operations beyond

that necessary to preserve them in good condition

while in that country.

Note 3 - Articles 1 and 2

In order to determine whether goods are originating products it shall not be necessary to establish whether the power and fuel, plant and equipnent, and machines and tools used to obtain such goods originate in third countries or not.

Note 4 = Sub-paragraph (f) of Article 4

The tern "its vessels" shall apply only to vessels:

(a) which are registered or recorded in a State Party

to this Agreement;

Annex I

to Protocol B

(b) which sail under the flag of a State Party to this Agreement;

(c) which are at least 50 per cent owned by nationals of a State Party to this Agreement or by a company with its head office in such a State, of which the manager or managers, chairman of the board of directors or of the supervisory board, and the majority of the members of such boards are nationals of a State Party to this Agreement and of which, in addition, in the case of partnerships or limited companies, at least half of the capital belongs to such a State or to public bodies or nationals of such a State;

(e) of which at least 75 per cent of the crew are nationals of a State Party to this Agreement.

Note 5 - Articles 4 and 5

2. The unit of qualification for the application of the origin rules shall be the particular product which is

considered as the basic unit when determining

classification using the Nomenclature of the Harmonized System. In the case of sets of products which are classified by virtue of General Rule 3, the unit of qualification shall be determined in respect of each item in the set; this also applies to the sets of heading Nos 6308, 8206 and 9605.

Accordingly, it follows that:

- when a product composed of a group or assembly of articles is classified under the terms of the Harmonized System within a single heading, the whole constitutes the unit of qualification,

- when a consignnent consists of a number of identical products classified within the same heading of the harmonizeåd system, each product must be taken individually when applying the origin rules.

2. Where, under General Rule 5 of the Harmonized Systen, packing is included with the product for classification purposes, it shall be included for purposes of determining origin.

Note 5a - Sub-paragraph (h) of Article 4

Annex I

to Protocol B

In the case of used tyres, the term "used articles collected there , fit only for the recovery of raw materials" does not only cover used tyres fit only for the recovery of raw materials but also used tyres fit only for retreading or for use as waste.

Note 6 - Paragraph 2 of Article 5

The Introductory Notes to Annex II shall also apply where appropriate to all products manufactured using nonoriginating materials even if they are not subject to a specific condition contained in the List in Annex II but are subject instead to the change of heading rule set out in paragraph 2 of Article 5.

Note 7 - Article 6

"Ex-works price" shall mean the price paid to the manufacturer in whose undertaking the last working or processing is carried out, provided the price includes the value of all the products used in manufacture.

"Drawback of Customs duty or exemption from customs duty of whatever kind" shall mean any arrangement for refund or renmission, partial or complete, of customs duties applicable to products used in manufacture, provided that the said provision concedes, expressly or in effect, this repaynment or non-charging or the non-imposition when goods obtained from the said products are exported but not when they are retained for hone use.

"Products used in manufacture" shall mean any products in respect of which a "drawback of customs duty or exemption from customs duty of whatever kind" is requested as a result of the export of originating products for which an EUR.1 certificate, an LT certificate or the invoices referring to the LT certificate, or an invoice bearing the exporter's declaration are issued or made out.

Annex II

to Protocol B

ANNEX II

List of working or processing required to be carried out on non-originating materials in order that the product manufactured can obtain originating status

INTRODUCTORY NOTES

General

Note 1

1.1 The first two columns in the List describe the products obtained. The first column gives the heading number, or the Chapter number, used in the Harmonized System and the second column gives the description of goods used in that System for that heading or Chapter. For each entry in the first two columns a rule is specified in columns 3 and 4. Where, in some cases, the entry in the first column is preceded by an "ex", this signifies that the rule in column 3 or column 4 only applies to the part of that heading or Chapter as described in column 2.

1.2 Where several heading numbers are grouped together in column 1 or a Chapter number is given and the description of product in column 2 is therefore given in general terms, the adjacent rule in column 3 or column 4 applies to all products which, under the Harmonized System, are classified within headings of the Chapter or within any of the headings grouped together in column 1.

1.3 Where there are different rules in the List applying to different products within a heading, each indent contains the description of that part of the heading covered by the adjacent rule in column 3 or column 4.

1.4 For the products of Chapters 84 to 91 inclusive, if no origin rule is given in column 4, the rule set out in column 3 has to be applied.

2.1 The term "manufacture" covers any kind of working or processing including "assembly" or specific operations. However, see paragraph 5 of Note 3 below.

Annex II

to Protocol B

The term "material" covers any "ingredient", "raw

material", "component" or "part", etc., used in

the manufacture of the product.

The tern "product" refers to the product being mnanufactured, even if it is intended for later use in another manufacturing operation.

Note 3

3.1¶In the case of any heading not in the List or any

part of a heading that is not in the List, the "change of heading" rule set out in paragraph 2 of Article 5 applies. If a "change of heading" condition applies to any entry in the List, then it is contained in the rule in column 3.

The working or processing required by a rule in column 3 or column 4 has to be carried out only in relation to the non-originating materials used. The restrictions contained in a rule in column 3 or column 4 likewise apply only to the non-originating materials used.

Where a rule states that "materials of any heading" may be used, materials of the same heading as the product may also be used, subject, however, to any specific limitations which may also be contained in the rule. However, the expression "manufacture from materials of any heading including other materials of heading No..." means that only materials classified within the same heading as the product of a different description than that of the product as given in column 2 of the List may be used.

If a product, made from non-originating materials which has acquired originating status during manufacture by virtue of the change of heading rule or its own List rule, is used as a material in the process of manufacture of another product, then the rule applicable to the product in which it is incorporated does not apply to it.

- For example:

An engine of heading No. 8407, for which the

rule states that the value of the non-

originating materials which may be

incorporated may not exceed 40 § of the ex-

works price, is made from "other alloy steel

roughly shaped by forging" of heading No. 7224.

Annex II

to Protocol B

If this forging has been forged in the country concerned from a non-originating ingot then the forging has already acquired

origin by virtue of the rule for heading No.

ex 7224 in the List. It can then count as

originating in the value calculation for the

engine regardless of whether it was produced

in the sane factory or another. The value of the non-originating ingot is thus not taken into account when adding up the value of the non-originating materials used.

3.5 Even if the change of heading rule or the rule contained in the List are satisfied, a product does not have origin if the processing carried out, taken as a whole, is insufficient in the sense of paragraph 5 of Article 5.

Note 4

The rule in the List represents the minimum «: amount of working or processing required and the carrying out of more working or processing also confers originating status; conversely, the carrying out of less working or processing cannot confer origin. Thus if a rule says that nonoriginating material at a certain level of manufacture may be used, the use of such material at an earlier stage of manufacture is allowed and the use of such material at a later stage is not.

When a rule in the List specifies that a product may be manufactured from more than one material, this means that any one or more of the materials may be used. It does not require that all be used.

- For example: ”

The rule for fabrics says that natural

fibres may be used and that chemical materials, among other materials, may also be used. This does not mean that both have to be used, one can use one or the other or both.

If, however, a restriction applies to one material and other restrictions apply to other materials in the same rule, then the restrictions only apply to the materials actually used.

- For example:

The rule för sewing machines specifies that the thread tension mechanism used has to

originate and that the z2igzag mechanism used 200

Annex II

to Protocol B

also has to originate; these two restrictions only apply if the mechanisms concerned are actually incorporated into the sewing machine.

When a rule in the List specifies that a product nust be manufactured from a particular material, the condition obviously does not prevent the use of other materials which, because of their inherent nature, cannot satisfy the rule.

- For example: The rule for heading No. 1904 which specifically excludes the use of cereals or their åerivatives does not prevent the use of mineral salts, chemicals and other additives which are not produced from cereals.

- For example: In the case of an article made from non- .woven materials, if the use of only nonoriginating yarn is allowed for this class of article, it is not possible to start from non-woven cloth - even if non-wovens cannot normally be made from yarn. In such cases, the starting material would normally be at the stage before yarn - that is the fibre stage.

See also paragraph 3 of Note 7 in relation to textiles.

If in a rule in the List two or more percentages are given for the maximum value of nonoriginating materials that can be used, then these percentages may not be added together. The maximum value of all the non-originating materials used may never exceed the highest of the percentages given. Furthermore the individual percentages must not be exceeded in relation to the particular materials they apply to.

Textiles

Note 5

5.1 The term "natural fibres" is used in the List to refer to fibres other than artificial or

synthetic fibres and is restricted to the stages

before spinning takes place, including waste and unless otherwise specified, the term "natural

Annex lI

to Protocol B

fibres" includes fibres that have been carded, combed or otherwise processed but not spun.

The term "natural fibres" includes horsehair of

heading No. 0503, silk of headings Nos. 5002 and 5003 as well as the wool fibres, fine or CcCoarse animal hair of headings Nos. 5101 to 5105, the cotton fibres of headings Nos. 5201 to 5203 and the other vegetable fibres of headings Nos. 5301 to 5305.

The terns "textile pulp", "chemical materials" and "paper-making materials" are used in the List to describe the materials not classified within Chapters 50 to 63 which can be used to manufacture artificial, synthetic or paper fibres or yarns.

The term "man-made staple fibres" is used in the List to refer to synthetic or artificial filament tow, staple fibres or waste, of headings Nos. 5501 to 5507.

Note

In the case of the products classified within those headings in the List where a reference is made to this Introductory Note, the conditions set out in column 3 of the List shall not be applied to any basic textile materials used in their manufacture which, taken together, represent 10 § or less of the total weight of all the basic textile materials used (but see also paragraphs 3 and 4 of Note 6 below).

However, this tolerance may only be applied to mixed products which have been made from two or nore basic textile materials, irrespective of their share of the product.

The following are the basic textile materials:

silk, wool, coarse animal hair, fine animal hair, horsehair, cotton, paper-making materials and paper, flax, true hemp, jute and other textile bast fibres, sisal and other textile fibres of the genus Agave,

Annex II

to Protocol B

coconut, abaca, ramie and other vegetable textile fibres, synthetic man-made filaments, artificial man-made filaments, synthetic man-made staple fibres, artificial man-made staple fibres.

For example: A yarn of heading No. 5205 made from cotton

fibres and synthetic staple fibres is a

nixeå yarn. Therefore, non-originating materials that do not satisfy the origin rules may be used up to a weight of 10 § of the yarn.

For example: A woollen fabric of heading No. 5112 made from woollen yarn and synthetic yarn of staple fibres is a mixed fabric. Therefore, either non-originating synthetic yarn or woollen yarn or a combination thereof that does not satisfy the origin rules may be used up to a weight of 10 § of the fabric

For example:

Tufted textile of heading No. 5802 made from

cotton yarn and cotton fabric is only a mixed product if the cotton fabric is itself a mixed fabric being made fron two or more different basic textile materials or if the cotton yarns used are themselves mixtures.

For example: If the tufted textile concerned had been made from cotton yarn and synthetic fabric, then, obviously, two separate basic textile materials would have been used.

För example: A carpet with tufts made both from artificial yarns and tufts made from cotton yarns and with a jute backing is a mixed product because three basic textile materials are used. Thus, any nonoriginating materials that are used at a later stage of manufacture than the rule allows, may be used, provided their total weight taken together does not exceeåd 10 § of the weight of the textile materials in the carpet. Thus, the jute backing, the artificial yarns and/or the cotton yarns could be imported at that stage of manufacture, provided the weight conditions are met.

Annex II

to Protocol B

In the case of products incorporating "yarn made of polyurethane segmented with flexible segnents of polyether whether or not gimped" this tolerance is 20 § in respect of this yarn.

In the case of products incorporating strip consisting of a core of aluminium foil or of a core of plastic film whether or not coated with aluminium powder, of a width not exceeding 5 mmn., sandwiched by means of an adhesive between two films of plastic film, this tolerance is 30 § in respect of this strip.

Note 7

In the case of those textile products, which are marked in the List by a footnote referring to this Introductory Note, textile materials, with the exception of linings and interlinings, which do not satisfy the rule set out in the List in column 3 for the made-up product concerned may be used provided that they are classified in a heading other than that of the product and that their value does not exceed 8 § of the ex-works price of the product.

Any non-textile trimmings and accessories or other materials used which contain textiles do not have to satisfy the conditions set out in column 3 even though they fall outside the scope of paragraph 3 of Note 4.

In accordance with paragraph 3 of Note 4, any non-originating non-textile trimmings and accessories or other product, which do not contain any textiles, may, anyway, be used freely where they cannot be made from the materials listed in column 3.

- For example:

If a rule in the List says that for a

particular textile item, such as a blouse,

yarn must be used, this does not prevent the

use of metal items, such as buttons, because

they cannot be made from textile materials.

Where a percentage rule applies, the value of trimmings and accessories must be taken into account when calculating the value of the nonoriginating materials incorporated.

Rörande definitionen av begreppet ”ursprungsvaror” och formerna för ad- Protokoll B ministrativt samarbete

Avdelning 1

Definition av begreppet ”ursprungsvaror” Artikel I För tillämpning av detta avtal skall, med förbehåll för bestämmelserna i artikel 2, följande varor anses ha ursprung i ett avtalsslutande land:

a) varor som är helt framställda i detta land i den mening som avses i

artikel 4;

b) varor som är framställda i detta land med användande av material

som inte är helt framställda där, under förutsättning att:

i) — sådana material har undergått tillräcklig bearbetning eller be-

handling i detta land i den mening som avses i artikel 5, eller

att

ii) sådana material har ursprung i något av de andra avtalsslutande

länderna i den mening som avses i detta protokoll.

Artikel 2 1. Utan hinder av bestämmelserna i artikel 1 punkt 1 b) ii) skall varor, som har ursprung i något land som är part i detta avtal i den mening som avses i detta protokoll, och som exporteras från ett avtalsslutande land till ett annat i oförändrat skick eller efter att i exportlandet ha undergått endast sådan bearbetning eller behandling som avses i artikel 5 punkt 5, behålla sitt ursprung. 2. I de fall när vid tillämpning av punkt 1 har använts varor med ursprung i två celler flera av de avtalsslutande länderna och varorna har undergått endast sådan bearbetning eller behandling i exportlandet som avses 1 artikel 5 punkt 5, bestäms ursprunget av den vara som har det högsta tullvärdet eller, om detta inte är känt och inte kan fastställas, av den vara som har det högsta, tidigaste fastställbara pris som betalats för Varorna i det landet.

Anikel 3 (Detta protokoll innehåller inte någon artikel 3.)

Artikel 4 Som ”helt framställda” i avtalsslutande land enligt artikel I punkt a) skall anses

a) mineraliska produkter som utvunnits ur dess jord eller havsbotten; b) vegetabiliska produkter som skördats där; c) levande djur, som fötts och uppfötts där;

d) produkter som erhållits från levande djur, som uppfötts där; 316

e) produkter från jakt och fiske som utövats där;

f) produkter från havsfiske och andra produkter som hämtats ur havet Protokoll B

h) brukade artiklar, som tillvaratagits där och som endast kan användas

för återvinning av råvaror, i fråga om begagnade däck enligt an-

märkning 5 a) i bilaga 1 till detta protokoll;

i) avfall som uppkommit vid tillverkningsprocesser som ägt rum där;

j) varor som framställts där uteslutande av produkter som avses under

a)—i).

Artikel 5 1. Uttrycken ”kapitel” och ”tulltaxenummer” i detta protokoll skall avse de kapitel och tulltaxenummer (med fyrställig sifferkod), som används i den nomenklatur som ”systemet för harmoniserad varubeskrivning och kodifiering” utgör, i det följande benämnd det harmoniserade systemet celler HS.

Uttrycket ”klassificeras” skall avse klassificeringen av en vara eller ett material enligt ett visst tulltaxenummer. 2. Vid tillämpning av artikel 1 skall, med iakttagande av föreskrifterna föreskrifterna i punkterna 3, 4 och 5 nedan, icke-ursprungsmaterial anses ha genomgått tillräcklig bearbetning eller behandling om den framställda varan klassificeras enligt ett annat tulltaxenummer än de icke-ursprungsmaterial som använts vid framställningen. 3. För vara som upptagits i kolumnerna 1 och 2 i listan i bilaga II till detta protokoll skall, istället för regeln i punkt 2, de villkor uppfyllas som anges i kolumn 3 för den berörda varan. 4. För varorna enligt kapitlen 84-91 får exportören, som alternativ till att de villkor som anges i kolumn 3 uppfylls, välja att i stället tillämpa de villkor som anges i kolumn 4. 5. Vid tillämpning av bestämmelserna i artikel I punkt b) i) skall följande bearbetning eller behandling alltid anses otillräcklig för att ge ursprungskaraktär, oavsett om den medför ändring av tulltaxenummer:

a) behandling med syfte att säkerställa att varorna bevaras i gott skick

under transport eller lagring (luftning, utspridning, torkning, kyl-

ning, inläggning i saltvatten, i svavelsyrlighetsvatten eller i andra

konserverande vattenlösningar, avlägsnande av skadade delar och

liknande åtgärder);

b) enkel behandling bestående i avlägsnande av damm, siktning celler

lar till satser), tvättning, målning celler delning;

c) i) — ompackning, uppdelning eller sammanföring av kollin;

ii) förpackning på flaskor, i säckar, fodral eller askar, uppsättning

på kartor m.m. samt alla andra enkla förpackningsåtgärder;

d) anbringande av märken, etiketter eller liknande särskiljande be- 317

e) enkel blandning av varor, även av skilda slag, såvida cn eller flera i — Protokoll B

blandningen ingående beståndsdelar inte uppfyller villkoren enligt

detta protokoll för att kunna anses som ursprungsvaror;

f) enkel sammansättning av delar av artiklar i avsikt att framställa en

komplett artikel;

g) en kombination av två cller flera av de åtgärder som anges under

a)-DN;

h) slakt av djur.

Även i det fall värdet av de använda ursprungsmaterialen måste fastställas, skall första stycket tillämpas. 2. Med begreppet ”pris fritt fabrik” i listan i bilaga II skall avses den framställda varans pris vid försäljning fritt fabrik med avdrag av interna skatter som återbetalas eller kan återbetalas vid exporten av den framställda varan.

Anikel 7 Transport, som sker i en enda ouppdelad sändning, av varor som har ursprung i ett avtalsslutande land kan äga rum genom andra områden än dem som tillhör ett avtalsslutande land, i förekommande fall med omlastning cller tillfällig lagring inom sådana andra områden, såvida transporten genom dessa områden är motiverad av geografiska skäl och varorna stått under uppsikt av tullmyndigheterna i transit- eller lagringslandet samt inte saluförts eller utlämnats till förbrukning och där inte heller undergått annan behandling än Jossning och lastning eller åtgärd avsedd att bevara dem i oförändrat skick.

Avdelning II

c) en faktura innehållande den exportörsdeklaration som finns återpi-

ven i bilaga IV till detta protokoll, upprättad av vilken exportör som

helst för sändning som består av ett celler flera kollin, innehållande

ursprungsvaror vilkas sammanlagda värde inte överstiger 5 110 av-

räkningsenheter. | 2. Följande ursprungsvaror enligt detta protokoll skall vid import till ett avtalsslutande land anses berättigade till förmånsbehandling enligt avtalet utan att något av de dokument som nämns under punkt 1 behöver företes:

a) varor som inkommer som småförsändelser från enskild person adresserade till enskild person och vars värde inte överstiger 365 avräkningsenheter; b) varor som ingår i resandes personliga bagage och vars värde inte överstiger 1025 avräkningsenheter.

Dessa bestämmelser skall tillämpas endast under förutsättning att införseln inte har kommersiell karaktär, att varorna anges uppfylla villkoren för tilllämpning av avtalet och att inget tvivel råder om riktigheten härav.

Som införsel utan kommersiell karaktär skall anses införsel som har tillfällig karaktär och som uteslutande avser varor för mottagarens eller den resandes eller hans familjs personliga bruk, förutsatt att varorna inte genom sin beskaffenhet eller sin mängd ger intryck av att införseln sker i kommersiellt syfte. 3. Belopp angivna i det exporterande avtalsslutande landets valuta, motsvarande de belopp som angivits i avräkningsenheter, skall fastställas av exportlandet och meddelas övriga avtalsslutande länder. Om beloppen överstiger de motsvarande belopp som fastställts av importlandet skall importlandet godta dem om varorna är fakturerade i exportlandets valuta.

Om varorna är fakturerade i ett annat avtalsslutande lands valuta skall importlandet godta det belopp som meddelats av det berörda landet. 4. Som värde för avräkningsenheten angivet i nationell valuta för de avtalsslutande länderna skall användas de värden som angivits i bilaga VI till detta protokoll. 5.

Tillbehör, reservdelar och verktyg som levereras tillsammans med en utrustning, en maskin, cn apparat eller ett fordon skall tillsammans med dessa anses som en enhet när de utgör standardutrustning och ingår i priset för ifrågavarande utrustning, maskin, apparat eller fordon eller ej har särskilt fakturerats. . 7. Varor i satser, i den mening som avses i allmänna tolkningsregeln 3 i det harmoniserade systemet, anses som ursprungsvaror under förutsättning att alla i satsen ingående komponenter utgör ursprungsvaror. Varor i satser som består av såväl ursprungsvaror som icke-ursprungsvaror skall dock i sin hel- 319

Anikel 9 1. Certifikat EUR. 1 utfärdas av tullmyndigheten i exportlandet vid utförseln av de varor som certifikatet avser. Det skall ställas till cexportörens förfogande så snart utförseln ägt rum celler säkerställts. 2. Certifikat EUR. 1 utfärdas av tullmyndigheten i ett avtalsslutande land om de varor som skall exporteras kan anses ha ursprung i detta land enligt artikel 1. 3. Tullmyndigheterna i ett avtalsslutande land får utfärda certifikat EUR. 1 enligt villkoren i detta protokoll om de varor som skall exporteras kan anses ha ursprung i ett avtalsslutande land enligt artikel 2, under förutsättning att de varor som skall omfattas av certifikaten EUR.1 befinner sig i landet.

I sådana fall utfärdas certifikat EUR. 1 mot uppvisande av de ursprungsintyg som tidigare utfärdats eller upprättats. 4. Certifikat EUR. 1 får utfärdas endast om det kan antagas komma att utgöra bevis vid tillämpning av den i detta avtal avsedda förmånsbehandlingen.

Datum för utfärdande av certifikat EUR.1 skall anges i den ruta på certifikatet EUR.1 som är avsedd för tullmyndigheten. |

5. Om certifikat EUR. 1 inte utfärdats vid utförseltillfället på grund av misstag, förbiseende eller särskilda omständigheter, kan certifikat undantagsvis utfärdas även efter utförseln av de varor som certifikatet avser.

Tullmyndigheten kan inte utfärda certifikat EUR.1 i efterhand utan att kontrollera att uppgifterna i exportörens ansökan överensstämmer med uppgifterna i motsvarande handlingar.

Certifikat EUR.1 som utfärdas i efterhand skall förses med en av följande anteckningar: :

”ISSUED RETROSPECTIVELY”, ”ANNETTU JÄLKIKÄTEEN, ”DELIVRE A POSTERIORI”, ”NACHTRÄGLICH AUSGESTELLT”, ”UTGEFID EFTIR ÅA”, ”RILASCIATO A POSTERIOR!”, ”UTSTEDT

SENERE”, ”UTFÄRDAT I EFTERHAND”, ”U3AaAeH BrOCnAecctBYe”.

6. Om ctt certifikat EUR.1 stulits, förlorats eller förstörts, kan exportören hos den tullmyndighet som utfärdat det begära ett duplikat upprättat på grundval av de utförselhandlingar som denna förfogar över. Det sålunda utfärdade duplikatet skall förses med en av följande anteckningar:

”DUPLICATE”, ”KAKSOISKAPPALE”, ”DUPLICATA”, ”DUPLI- KAT”, ”EFTIRRIT”, ”DUPLICATO”, ”AYSAMKaT.”.

Duplikatet, vilket skall dagtecknas samma dag som det ursprungliga certifikatet EUR. 1, gäller från denna dag. 7. De anteckningar som avses i punkterna 5 och 6 skall införas i rutan för ”Anmärkningar” på certifikatet EUR.T. 8. Det är alltid möjligt att utbyta ett eller flera certifikat EUR. 1 mot ett eller

där varorna befinner sig. Protokoll B 9. I syfte att kontrollera att de i punkterna 2 och 3 angivna villkoren är uppfyllda har tullmyndighet rätt att begära de handlingar som styrker detta eller att utföra den kontroll den finner påkallad. 10. Bestämmelserna i punkterna 2—9 skall tillämpas även på de ursprungsintyg som upprättas av godkända exportörer enligt villkoren i artikel 13.

Artikel 10 1. Certifikat EUR.1 utfärdas endast på skriftlig ansökan av ecxportören eller, på exportörens ansvar, av dennes befullmäktigade ombud. Denna ansökan skall göras på blankett enligt formulär i bilaga III till detta protokoll, och skall ifyllas i enlighet med detta. 2. Det åligger tullmyndighet i exportlandet att övervaka att den i punkt 1 avsedda blanketten blir vederbörligen ifylld. Den skall särskilt kontrollera att rutan avsedd för varuslag fyllts i på ett sätt som utesluter varje möjlighet till tillägg i bedrägligt syfte. För detta ändamål skall vid beskrivning av varuslag utskrift ske utan mellanrum mellan raderna. Om rutan inte helt fyllts i, skall en horisontell linje dragas under den sista raden i beskrivningen, och den icke ifyllda delen spärras. 3. Eftersom certifikat EUR.1 utgör bevis för tillämpningen av den i avtalet avsedda förmånsbehandlingen beträffande tullar och kvantitativa restriktioner, ankommer det på tullmyndighet i exportlandet att vidta nödvändiga åtgärder för undersökning av varornas ursprung och kontroll av övriga uppgifter på certifikatet. 4. När enligt artikel 9 punkt 5 ett certifikat EUR.1 utfärdas efter utförseln av de varor som certifikatet avser skall exportören i den i punkt 1 avsedda ansökan = ange tid och plats för avsändandet av de varor som certifikatet EUR.1

avser; - intyga att något certifikat EUR.1 ej utfärdats vid utförseln av ifrågava-

rande varor och ange orsakerna härtill. 5. Ansökan om certifikat EUR. 1, liksom de ursprungsintyg som avses i artikel 9 punkt 3 andra stycket och mot vars uppvisande nytt certifikat EUR.1 utfärdas, skall bevaras av tullmyndigheten i exportlandet under minst två år.

Artikel 11 1. Certifikat EUR. ! skall upprättas på blankett enligt formulär i bilaga III till detta protokoll. Blanketten skall tryckas på ctt eller flera av de avtalsslutande ländernas officiella språk celler på engelska. Certifikat EUR.1 skall upprättas på ett av dessa språk och i överensstämmelse med bestämmelserna 1 exportlandets inhemska lag; om det skrivs ut för hand, skall det fyllas i med bläck och med tryckbokstäver. 21 Riksdagen 1992193. 1 saml. Nr 212. Del I

2. Certifikat EUR.1 skall ha formatet 210 x 297 mm. En tolerans på längden = Prop. 1992/93:212 om högst plus 8 mm eller minus 5 mm kan tillåtas. Det papper som användes — Protokoll B skall vara vitt och inte innehålla slipmassa, vara limmat för skrivändamål och väga minst 25 g/m?. Det skall vara försett med guillocherad botten i grön färg för att på mekanisk celler kemisk väg utförd förfalskning skall bli synlig. 3. De avtalsslutande länderna kan förbehålla sig rätten till tryckning av certifikat EUR.1 eller anförtro denna åt tryckerier som godkänts av dem. I sistnämnda fall skall på varje certifikat EUR. 1 finnas uppgift om godkännande. Varje certifikat EUR.1 skall förses med uppgift om tryckeriets namn och adress eller med tecken som möjliggör identifiering av tryckeriet. För särskiljande av certifikaten skall varje certifikat dessutom genom tryck celler på annat sätt förses med serienummer.

Anikel 12 1. Certifikat EUR.1 skall inom fyra månader, räknat från den dag då det utfärdats av tullmyndighet i exportlandet, inges till den tullanstalt i importlandet där varorna anmäles enligt där gällande bestämmelser. Myndigheten kan begära att certifikatet översättes. Den kan vidare kräva att importanmälan kompletteras med en försäkran av importören att varorna uppfyller de villkor som uppställts för tillämpning av avtalet. 2. Utan inskränkning av artikel 5 punkt 5 skall, på begäran av den som anger varan till förtullning, en isärtagen eller icke hopsatt vara hänförlig till kapitel 84 eller 85 i det harmoniserade systemet, vilken importeras i flera sändningar på villkor som fastställes av behörig myndighet, anses utgöra en enda vara, och ett certifikat EUR.1 som omfattar den kompletta varan kan uppvisas vid importen av den första delsändningen. 3. Certifikat EUR.1 som inges till tullmyndighet i importlandet efter utgången av den tidsfrist som anges i punkt 1 kan godtas som grund för förmånsbehandling, om underlåtenheten att iaktta fristen beror på force majeure eller på exceptionella omständigheter.

Tullmyndighet i importlandet kan även i andra fall då certifikat avlämnats för sent godta certifikat EUR. 1, förutsatt att varan anmälts hos myndigheten före utgången av nämnda tidsfrist. 4. Mindre skiljaktigheter mellan uppgifterna i certifikat EUR.1 och uppgifterna i de dokument som ingivits till tullanstalten i syfte att uppfylla formaliteterna för import av varorna medför inte i och för sig att certifikatet blir ogiltigt, förutsatt att det vederbörligen fastställes att certifikatet svarar mot varorna. 5. Certifikat EUR.1 skall bevaras av tullmyndigheten i importlandet enligt de regler som gäller där. 6. För att styrka att villkoren i artikel 7 uppfyllts skall för tullmyndighet i importlandet företes:

a) antingen en transporthandling som utfärdats i exportlandet och som

täcker transporten genom transitlandet; 322

b) eller ctt intyg utfärdat av tullmyndighet i transitlandet innehållande: — Prop. 1992/93:212

— en noggrann varubeskrivning; Protokoll B

- datum för varornas lossning och lastning samt, i förekommande

fall, fartygens namn;

—- intyg om de villkor under vilka varorna befunnit sig i transitlandet,

c) celler, i avsaknad härav, andra handlingar som styrker att villkoren
