Mr. András Szepesí
Chairman
Textiles Monitoring Body
World Trade Organization
Dear Mr. Szepesí,
I have the honour to transmit herewith to the Textiles Monitoring Body the notification of our
list of textile products for Stage three integration.
Having reviewed our lists of products integrated in previous stages, we have indeed found
products which had already been integrated in previous stages.  Consequently, the duplicate products
have been replaced by other textile products, having regard for the four groups established in
Article 2.6 of the Agreement (tops and yarns, fabrics, made-up textile products, and clothing).
In view of the above, I hereby request that the revised list of textile products for Stage three
integration be submitted to the Textiles Monitoring Body for its consideration.
I thank you in advance for your assistance.
Yours sincerely,
(signed)
