agricultural products subject to a common organization ofthe marketapply to the Isle ofMan in accordance with Article 1 (2) ofProtocol 3 to
the Act ofAccession and with Regulation (EEC) No 706/73 (
1);
Whereas livestock production is a traditional activity in the Isle ofMan
and plays a central part in the Island's agriculture;
Whereas, prior to the introduction ofthe common organization ofthe
market in sheepmeat and goatmeat within the Community, Isle ofMan,as part ofits local market organization, applied certain mechanisms tocontrol imports ofsheepmeat into the Island in order to ensure that theneed to supply the requirements ofthe trade could be met whilst
avoiding distortions in the pattern ofsheep production and, indirectly, in
cattle production on the Island and in its own agricultural supportsystem;
Whereas in the context ofthe trade arrangements with certain third
countries pursuant to the common organization ofthe market whichapply to the Isle ofMan, subject to the Community provisions whichgovern the relationship between the Island and the Community, it is
desirable to permit the Island authorities to apply certain measures in
order to protect its own production and the working ofits ownagricultural support system;

authorize the Isle ofMan Government to apply a system ofspeciallicences for imports of sheepmeat and beef and veal originating in thirdcountries and in Member States ofthe Community, without prejudice tothe measures concerning trade with third countries provided for by
