THECOUNCILOFTHEEUROPEANCOMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic
CommunityandinparticularArticle113thereof,
HavingregardtotheproposalfromtheCommission,Whereas the Community has accepted the extension of the Arrange-
ment regarding international trade in textiles on the conditions laid
down in the Protocol for the extension of the Arrangement and the
conclusionsadoptedbytheGATTTextilesCommitteeon9December1992andannexedtothatProtocol;
WhereastheCommunityhasnegotiatedanextensionforthreeyearsof

suppliercountries;
Whereas the agreements in question establish Community quantitative
limitsfor1993,1994and1995;
Whereas the Community has negotiated new bilateral agreements and
otherarrangementswithanumberofsuppliercountries;
Whereas the Community has negotiated agreements in the form of
Additional Protocolsontrade intextile productstothe EuropeAgree-ments and/or the Interim Agreements, with a number of suppliercountries;
Whereas it is necessary to ensure that the purpose or each of these
agreements, protocols and other arrangements should not be evadedby deflection of trade; whereas it is therefore necessary to determinethe way in which the origin of the products in question is checkedand the methods by which the appropriate administrative cooperation
isachieved;
Whereascompliancewiththequantitativelimitsonexportsestablished
under the agreements and protocols is ensured by a double-checkingsystem; whereas the effectiveness of these measures depends on theCommunity'sestablishingasetofCommunityquantitative limitstobe

Whereas agreements concluded by the Community with certain third
countries contain special provisions for imports of folklore andhandloom products into the Community, and it is therefore necessary
tolaydownappropriateproceduresforimplementingtheirprovisions;
Whereas provision should be made for special rules for products re-
imported under the arrangements for economic outward processingandforthemanagementoftherelevantCommunityquantitativelimits;
Whereas,inordertoensurethatCommunityquantitativelimitsarenot

wherebythecompetentauthoritiesoftheMemberStateswillnotissueimportlicences beforeobtaining priorconfirmation fromtheCommis-sion that there are still amounts available of the quantitative limit inquestion;

Whereas,inthecaseofproductsnotsubjecttoquantitative limits, the

Whereas theagreements, protocolsorarrangements withcertain coun-
tries foresee the possibility for the Community to subject textiles and

Whereas, as a result of the completion of the internal market for
