COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 1014/89

of 18 April 1989

on arrangements for imports into the Community of certain textile products (category 90) originating in Poland

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 4136/86 of 22 December 1986 on common rules for imports of certain textile products originating in third countries (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 718/89 (2), and in particular Article 11 thereof,

Whereas Article 11 of Regulation (EEC) No 4136/86 lays down the conditions under which quantitative limits may be established; whereas imports into the Community of certain textile products (category 90) specified in the Annex hereto and originating in Poland have exceeded the level referred to in paragraph 3 of the said Article 11;

Whereas, in accordance with paragraph 5 of the said Article 11 of Regulation (EEC) No 4136/86, on 9 February 1989 Poland was notified of request for consultations;

Whereas, pending the outcome of the requested consultations, imports into the Community were made subject to a provisional quantitative limitation for the period 9 February to 8 May 1989, by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 438/89 (3);

Whereas, in the course of consultations held on 7 March 1989, it was agreed that imports of products falling within category 90 into the Community should be subject to quantitative limits for the period 9 February 1989 to 31 December 1991.

Whereas paragraph 13 of the said Article 11 ensures that the quantitative limits are observed by means of a double-checking system in accordance with Annex VI to Regulation (EEC) No 4136/86;

Whereas these quantitative limits should not prevent the importation of products covered by them shipped from Poland before the date of entry into force of Regulation (EEC) No 438/89.

Whereas the measures provided for in the present Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Textile Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

2. Imports of products shipped from Poland to the Community after the entry into force of this Regulation shall be subject to the double-checking system described in Annex VI to Regulation (EEC) No 4136/86.
