Whereas the Republic of Surinam, the Republic of the Seychelles and the Comoro State, which are former overseas countries and territories associated with the Community by virtue of Decision 76/568/EEC (2), having become independent, requested to accede to the Convention of Lomé pursuant to Article 89 thereof ; whereas the ACP-EEC Council of Ministers approved these requests at its first meeting ; whereas these States deposited their instruments of accession with the General Secretariat of the Council and thus acceded to the ACP-EEC Convention of Lomé on 16 July, 27 August and 13 September 1976 respectively;

Whereas, therefore, in accordance with Article 1 (4) of the Internal Agreement, the amounts provided for the overseas countries and territories in Article 1 (3) (b) of the said Internal Agreement should be reduced and those provided for the ACP States in subparagraph (a) of that paragraph correspondingly increased,
