SheCommission notes that ,,$u.though theCommunity a&turo ofthe
quotas opened wasinsufficiently marked ,thesystem adopted for
theyears 1971 to1975 constituted theonly means possible of
progressing from thepurely national arrangements towards a '
Community solution .This iswhy the draft' Regulations annexed
hereto ,concerning "thequotas' tobeopened for1976 ,are'very
largely based onthose for thepreceding years asregards the
conditions onwhich thequotas' are opened' ,their allocation and
uniform method ofadministration . '
Furthermore ,these draft Regulations take account oftheopinion
jointly expressed bytheexperts that theMember States should beat
liberty torestrict theunwrought lead other than ,bullion lead and the
zinc tobecharged against thequotas tolead andzinc ofcertain
qualities orlead andzinc tobeUsed forcertain' purposes .

ANNEX A

•REGULATION (EEC ) 1.> 'OFTHECOUNCIL
1ontheopening ,allocation andadministration ofa
Coramimity tariff quota for unwrought lead other
than bullion lead ,falling within subheading No78.01
AII ofthe Common Customs Tariff
THECOUNCIL OFTHEEUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard totheTreaty establishing theEuropean Economic
Community ,-andinparticular Article 28thereof ;
Having regard tothedraft Regulation submitted bytheCommission :
r ■'
Whereas Protocol 1^totheActofAccession provides that the
Community istoopen each year nil duty Community tariff quotas "for
bullion lead (forrefining ,containing 0.02% ormore byweight of
silver )falling within subheading No78.01 AIuntil theentry into
force ofatotal suspension ofthe customs duty foranindefinite
period and forlead other than bullion lead falling within subheading
No78.01 AII,theamount ofthoquota tocorrespond ,inthecase of
bullion lead ,tothe total amount inrespect ofwhich requests have .
\
been received byMember States ,plus aCommunity reserve and ,inthe
case ofunwrought lead other than bullion lead ,todecrease annually
from 1January 1975 byanamount fixed for197^at55000metric tons
•
tozero in1978 ;whereas theProtocol also provides that thenew
Member ,.States aretoshare inthetariff quotas from 1January 197^;
X0JN.oL73,.27March1972 ,p.171.

whereas theduties tobeapplied bythenewMember States inrespect
ofimports coning within those tariff quotas must boinaccordance .
with theprovisions laid down therefor intheActofAccession ";
whereas thetotal suspension foranindefinite period "ofthecommon customs' '
tariff duties ,from 1January 1976forunwrought lead ,makes theopening of
aquota tariff unnecessary forthisproduct ;whereas itisthusnecessary to
open ,on1January 1976,aCommunity tariff quota laiddownforunwrought lead
other thanbullion lead ,ofwhich thevolume for1976 is27000tonnes *
Whereas ,inview ofthefact that interpenetration between themarket
in 'in unwrought lead other than bullion lead is
slight andth&t full statistics relating tothis quality of
lead arelacking ,'itdoes notseem possible tobase theallocation
oftheCommunity tariff quotas inquestion onearlier data ;whereas
thefigure of27000 metric tons •
/; .takes account oftheneed topreserve acertain balance
among thevarious products which couid becharged against thetariff
quota thereby maintaining protection
ofthesmelting industry ;/whereas Member States should therefore
beatliberty toauthorize only products satisfying certain
conditions astoquality andintended use tobecharged against that ,
quota of27000metric tons ; - •
Whereas ,inorder to'make'' greater allowance forchanges inimport -
trends inrespect of -theproduct inquestion ,thequota '
t\ -should bodivided into two tranches ,'the
first tobeallocated among theMember States ,thesecond toform ar
reserve intended tocover anysubsequent requirements ofMember < ;
States which exhaust their initial shares ;whereas ,inorder to ,
ensure acertain degree ofsecurity forimporters ,theinitial ..
tranche :■should beset'"at 1 ~'r~"""" ■'■
-•25500' "metric' tons' ,-' ,
theremainder constituting thereserve ;whereas ,
having regard toestimates taking account ofmarket trends inthese J
products ,thefirst tranches maybeallocated asfollows :

ΛΝΝΕΧ Δ
metric tons
unwrought load ,other
r. than bullion lead
Bénélux
Denmark
Germany
France
Ireland
Italy
United Kingdom 3902 ;
Whereas Member States may exhaust their initial shares atdifferent
rates ;whereas' toavoid disruption ofsupplies onthis account it
should beprovided that anyMember State which hasalmost used up
its initial share should draw anadditional share from
thereservo ;whereas each time one ofits additional shares isalmost
exhausted aMember State should draw afurther share ,and soonas
many times asthereserve allows ;whereas theinitial and additional
shares should bevalid until the endofthe quota period ;whereas
this form of'administration requires close collaboration between the
Member States and theCommission ,and theCommission must beina
position tokeep account ofthe extent towhich ,thequota hasbeen
used upand toinform theMember States accordingly ;
Whereas ifata'given date' inthequota period aconsiderable quantity
ofone orother ofaMember State 'sinitial share remains unused it
isessential ,toprevent apart of ' ofthequota from
remaining unused inoneMfember State while itcould beused inothers ,
that such State should return asignificant proportion thereof tothe
reserve ;. ' •Av,-12100
