COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION No 902/84/ECSC

of 2 April 1984

amending recommendation No 161/84/ECSC as regards Community surveillance of imports of certain iron and steel products covered by the ECSC Treaty and originating in Spain

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community, and in particular Article 74 thereof,

Whereas imports of certain iron and steel products covered by the ECSC Treaty and originating in non-member countries are subject to Community surveillance under Commission recommendation No 161/84/ECSC (1);

Whereas that recommendation makes the import of these iron and steel products subject to the issue of an import document;

Whereas, however, for imports of iron and steel products originating in Spain it is necessary to amend the list of products subject to surveillance and to make the issue of an import document subject to the presentation of an export document issued by the Spanish authorities; whereas recommendation No 161/84/ECSC should therefore be amended,

MAKES THE FOLLOWING RECOMMENDATION:

Article 1

Recommendation No 161/84/ECSC is hereby amended as follows:

1. The following Article 2a is inserted:

The import document may be issued only by the Member State referred to as the country of consigment in the export document, and only provided that the declared specifications relating to the product in respect of which an import application is made correspond to those shown in the export document.'
