ΤΟ ΣΥΜΒΟΥΛΙΟ ΤΩΝ ΕΥΡΩΠΑΪΚΩΝ ΚΟΙΝΟΤΗΤΩΝ,

Έχοντας υπόψη:

τη συνθήκη για την ίδρυση της Ευρωπαϊκής Οικονομικής Κοινότητας, και ιδίως το άρθρο 113,

την πρόταση της Επιτροπής,

Εκτιμώντας:

ότι, με τον κανονισμό (ΕΟΚ) αριθ. 2869/82 (1), το Συμβούλιο ενέκρινε τη σύναψη διακανονισμού με τις Ηνωμένες .Πολιτείες της Αμερικής όσον αφορά τις ανταλλαγές ορισμένων σιδηρουργικών προϊόντων-

ότι στο παράρτημα Β του διακανονισμού προβλεπόταν ότι ο πίνακας των κωδίκων ΝΙΜΕΧΕ που καλύπτονται από το διακανονισμό αυτό θα αποτελούσε αντικείμενο μεταγενέστερων ελέγχων και τροποποιήσεων που θα έπρεπε να συμφωνηθούν από τους εμπειρογνώμονες των δύο μερών-

ότι από τους ελέγχους αυτούς φάνηκε ότι είναι ανάγκη να καθοριστούν ακριβέστερα σε κώδικες ΝΙΜΕΧΕ τα προϊόντα που καλύπτονται από το διακανονισμό,
