not specifically mentioned, these products are to be taken to be made
exclusively of wool or of fine animal hair, of cotton or of man-made
fibres. This applies to the following countries: Argentina, Bangladesh,
Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, Cambodia, China (MFA Agreement),
Croatia, Egypt, former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Hong Kong,
India, Indonesia, Laos, Macao, Malaysia, Nepal, Pakistan, Peru, Philip-
pines, Russian Federation, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan,
Thailand and Vietnam.
3. Garments which are not recognisable as being garments for men or boys
or as being garments for women or girls are classified with the latter.
4. Where the expression “babies' garments” is used, this is meant to cover
garments upto and including commercial size 86.

ANNEXIB
1. This Annex covers textile raw materials (categories 128 and 154), textile
products other than those of wool and fine animal hair, cotton and man-
made fibres, as well as man-made fibres and filaments and yarns of cate-
gories 124, 125A, 125B, 126, 127A and 127B.
2. Without prejudice to the rules for the interpretation of the Combined
Nomenclature, the wording of the description of goods is considered to
be of indicative value only, since the products covered by each category
are determined, within this Annex, by CN codes. Where there is an “ex”
symbol in front of a CN code, the products covered in each category are
determined by the scope of the CN code and by that of the corresponding
description.
3. Garments which are not recognisable as being garments for men or boys
or as being garments for women or girls are classified with the latter.
4. Where the expression “babies' garments” is used, this is meant to cover
garments upto and including commercial size 86.

Article4
1. For the purpose of applying Article 1, the competent authorities of the
Member States, before issuing prior authorisations in accordance with the
relevant Community Regulations on economic outward processing, shall
notify the Commission of the amounts of the requests for authorisations
which they have received. The Commission shall notify its confirmation
that the requested amount(s) are available for re-importation within the
respective Community limits in accordance with the relevant Community
Regulations on economic outward processing.
2. The requests included in the notifications to the Commission shall be
valid if they establish clearly in each case:
(a) the third country in which the goods are to be processed;
(b) the category of textile products concerned;
(c) the amount to be re-imported;
(d) the Member State in which the re-imported products are to be put into
free circulation;
(e) an indication as to whether the requests relate to:
(i) a past beneficiary applying for the quantities set aside under Article
3(4) or in accordance with the fifth subparagraph of Article 3(5) of
Council Regulation (EC) No 3036/94 (1), or to
(ii) an applicant under the third subparagraph of Article 3(4) or under
Article 3(5) of that Regulation.
3. Normally the notifications referred to in the previous paragraphs of this
Article shall be communicated electronically within the integrated network
set up for this purpose, unless for imperative technical reasons it is necessary
to use other means of communication temporarily.
4. As far as possible, the Commission shall confirm to the authorities the
full amount indicated in the requests notified for each category of products
and each third country concerned. Notifications presented by Member States
for which no confirmation can be given because the amounts requested are
no longer available within the Community quantitative limits, will be stored
by the Commission in the chronological order in which they have been
received and confirmed in the same order as soon as further amounts become
available through the application of flexibilities foreseen in Article 3.
5. The competent authorities shall notify the Commission immediately
after being informed of any quantity that is not used during the duration of
validity of the import authorisation. Such unused quantities shall automati-
cally be recredited to the quantities within the Community quantitative
limits not set aside pursuant to the first subparagraph of Article 3(4) or to
the fifth subparagraph of Article 3(5) of Council Regulation (EC) No 3036/
94.
The quantities for which a renunciation has been made pursuant to the third
subparagraph of Article 3(4) of Council Regulation (EC) No 3036/94, shall
automatically be added to the quantities within the Community quota that
are not set aside pursuant to the first subparagraph of Article 3(4) or to the
fifth sub-paragraph of Article 3(5) of the said Regulation.
All such quantities as outlined in the preceding subparagraphs shall be noti-
fied to the Commission in accordance with paragraph 3 above.
Article5
The certificate of origin shall be issued by the competent governmental
authorities in the supplier country concerned, in accordance with the
Community legislation in force and the provisions of Annex III for all
products covered by this Annex.

with the names and addresses of the authorities competent to issue the prior
authorisations referred to in Article 4 together with specimens of the stamp
impressions used by them.2002R2344 — EN — 31.12.2002 — 000.001 — 49
